| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Courtside, everyone, a discussion of the post-election litigation. We are day 21 after the election. |
| 0:07.5 | That's three weeks since it. The Trumpistas are finally smelling the coffee. Some of them even kind of loosely acknowledging reality. |
| 0:17.0 | Most importantly, GSA Emily is finally letting the transition happen, so she can't quite bring |
| 0:23.3 | herself to say that she has ascertained that Biden is the president-elect. Because that, after all, |

| 1:20.6 | that cited in its complaint was Tucker Carlson's transcript of Tucker Carlson's news program. |
| 1:30.0 | Today, there was also a new lawsuit that was filed by Trump allies in Wisconsin. The lawsuit alleges, and I'm not kidding, that Mark Zuckerberg |
| 1:36.7 | donated millions of dollars to circumvent Wisconsin's absentee voter laws and they try to stop |
| 1:42.9 | certification. I don't think I'm going to lose any sleep |
| 1:46.2 | over that one. And I also won't lose sleep over Trump's new promised federal lawsuit. That's an |
| 1:52.3 | omnibus lawsuit that's supposed to wrap up all the allegations from all the states. Now, we know that |
