SCOTUS Lets Jan. 6 Committee Have Kelli Ward’s Phone Records

A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.

Kelli Ward will have to cough up her phone records to the House Jan. 6 committee after the Supreme Court turned back her effort to rein in the subpoena against T-Mobile.

Curious to hear from AZ residents. The pundit class was enjoying trashing Katie Hobbs for supposedly running a bad campaign. Was that a fair evaluation?

Second!

And then, there’s this gem from Herschel Walker.

Walker: “Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?”

I am ashamed.

“This evening: Trump makes his bigly announcement from Mar-a-Lago at 9 p.m. ET.”

Nah. I think the announcement will happen in about two weeks.

So, I imagine that today on TPM will be all-Trump all the time. Breathless anticipation of the announcement no one wants to hear, including for members of his own party.

And then tomorrow will be more breathless reporting as to his announcement.

I guess I’m glad I’m in a testing session for two clients this week.

On the other hand, has Katie Porter won her midterms yet?

Sung to the tune of Don Henley’s “Dirty Laundry”

You got your former TV celeb

Comes on at five

She can lie about elections

With a gleam in her eye

It’s interesting when democracy dies

Give us “Airbrushed Kari”

Another Henley tune that might apply to “Fake Lake” today: “ I Will Not Go Quietly

No. She was smart not to debate Lake. The only thing as I see it is there coulda been more signs for Hobbs tho there was the big billboard on East Speedway here in Tucson where a repub said “I’m a republican, I’m a gun owner, and I;m voting foir Katie Hobbs.”

Arizona resident here- I feel like Katie Hobbs ran a campaign that avoided engaging in dramatic tactics and didn’t engage with Lake’s baiting. But then I didn’t watch tv ads or anything like that.

I surely hope Kelli had exchanged texts with a certain spouse of a certain Supreme Court justice and we can wrap his dissent in this case around him.

Seemingly it would be appropriate for the house to share this with the Senate Judiciary committee and followed by hearings about applying the Judiciary Code of Ethics to the SC and watch Republicans have to defend corruption.

I remain deeply skeptical of this newfound “anti-Trumpism” among some Republicans, but let’s watch it closely as it plays out.

With few exceptions everyone folds on Trump and scampers back to his camp. They fear him like the rest of us fear the death of a child.

Agreed, By avoiding the debate she deftly avoided the Republican, Lake’s baiting.

Kelly OTOH did debate and let Republican Masters’ baiting to speak for itself.
