There will be more discovery in this case. The judge was ruling in emails Jan 4-7, 2021. That set was only the first round. The subpoena covers a time period going back to early November 2020.

Other letters reported clowns like Mo Brooks saying Stop the Steal conversations and strategy started as far back as September 2020. Who was Eastman selling his plan to in September?

Definitely the case. This fact is critical because it undercuts their premise that the election was stolen. Trump was preparing to block the peaceful transfer of power in September 2020 because his internal polling showed him losing.

The plot thickens. Wasn't aware of the Cruz connection. Why am I not surprised that he's friend with Eastman?
