The author/narrator of this piece deliberately fails to mention some key facts that undermine his claim about the EV objections on January 6th.

The electoral votes for each state are counted in alphabetical order. Under the law in place at the time, an objection to any state’s EVs would be heard and debated as long as one member of each House of Congress made an objection.

Arizona was the first one. An objection was legitimately made in each house, and then a vote was taken in both houses to uphold or reject the objection. The Arizona objection failed in the House of Representatives by more than 200 votes, and in the Senate by a 93-6 margin.

The objections for most of the other contested states failed because they were withdrawn by one or more Representatives or Senators who realized the futility of debating objections that were never going to pass in either house of Congress.

Are these votes taken before or after the House and Senate returned from the no-weapon “insurrection”?
