Welcome to Courtside, everyone. A discussion of the post-election litigation. It is day 66,

0:05.8

and there is really no more litigation to be had. Remember the good old days when we duped it

0:12.2

out in court with gladiators like Mark Elias and, well, non-gladiators like Jenna Ellis and Rudy Giuliani?

0:23.1

The pen is truly mightier than the sword,
