Description:

A memo from a Trump lawyer titled ‘January 6 Scenario’ outlines six steps to have the then Vice President Mike Pence throw chaos into the electoral college certification process and find a way to ignore the 2020 election results. Part of the memo outlines a scenario in which the Republicans could have invalidated votes from several States including Pennsylvania, ensuring Biden wouldn't have had the 270 minimum threshold required.

The Biden agenda hangs by a thread. A government shutdown looms, as just nine days remain until current funding runs out. Progressive and moderate Democrats are trying to address their big divide over the $3.5 trillion price tag and the policies it pays for, after failing to strike a bipartisan deal on a stopgap funding bill.

676,286 Americans have now been killed by Covid-19, more than the 1918 Flu pandemic.
