Trump appeals Wisconsin election loss to U.S. Supreme Court:
In yet another last-ditch effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, President Donald Trump's campaign appealed his recent loss in the Wisconsin Supreme Court to the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday.
Trump is asking the court to allow Wisconsin's Republican-controlled Legislature to override the will of voters and appoint its own presidential electors. The U.S. Supreme Court has already shot down election challenges in other states.
The longshot effort would require the nation's highest court to overturn the Wisconsin Supreme Court's recent 4-3 decision dismissing Trump's election challenge and cementing President-elect Joe Biden's victory in the state.
Trump had sought to toss about 220,000 absentee ballots in heavily Democratic Dane and Milwaukee counties, arguing those ballots were cast in violation of state election law. The Supreme Court majority affirmed a lower court ruling that the challenge came too late. --->READ MORE HERE

Did Rasmussen Polling Just Call on Pence To Make Game-Changing Move To Give Trump the Election?
Polling company Rasmussen may have suggested in a tweet Sunday that Vice President Mike Pence should not certify the Electoral College results to confirm the outcome of the 2020 election.
Pence, who is the president of the Senate, will preside over the counting and certification of electoral votes on Jan. 6 as part of his constitutional duty stated in the 12th Amendment.
“Come January 6th: (Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything. – Stalin) ‘Come January 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence will be presented with the sealed certificates containing the ballots of the presidential electors,'” Rasmussen tweeted Sunday quoting writer Alexander Macris. --->READ MORE HERE
