ATTN: This is most important court hearing to watch next week. The GOP does not want this case in federal court because they know a federal judge is not likely to toss out 60,000 lawful votes. Their plan is to have the partisan NC state Supreme Court decide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

In the inspectors general firings, there’s a legal possibility of remedies up to reinstatement.But that would take a while (esp v DOJ) and IG would return to agency that doesn’t trust him.
