tory rec sr requisite. democratic senator chris van holland slamming the efforts last hour on weekends with alex witt. these are political arsonists at this point in time. they are undermining the integrity of our democraciy. many of them talk about america needs to be a voice for freedom overseas but they re taking a blow torch to that idea here at home. those efforts by congressional republicans were dealt a major blow in court. a trump-appointed federal judge dismissing a lawsuit aimed at giving vice president pence the power to overturn the election results. meanwhile, as president trump rails against the november election results, he s also making unfounded allegations on twitter that georgia s two senate runoffs are illegal and invalid. democratic senator ben cardin reacting on msnbc earlier. right now he s raising doubt about the georgia election because he recognizes that democrats may very well twin georgia elections. it s not about our democracy. it s not ab
