“On January 6, a joint session of Congress will open with Vice President Pence presiding as president of the Senate.  His power will be plenary and unappealable.”

“His task will be to fulfill his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and to ensure that the laws be faithfully executed. “

“This is a high standard of performance, and V.P. Pence will have two choices.  He can roll over on "certified" electors, or he can uphold the law.”

“Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution gives state legislatures "plenary authority" as enunciated in Bush v. Gore.  This is key, since the counting of votes is discussed in Article II, the 12th Amendment, and 3 USC 15.”

“Add to that the fact that the contested states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, New Mexico, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin have sent dueling slates of electors to D.C.”

“the Senate is the final authority on any motions or objections during the vote-counting... There is no appeal”

“Seven contested states clearly violated their own laws... Only valid, lawful votes may be counted.”

“A valid lawful vote is...

•Cast by an eligible, properly registered elector as prescribed by laws enacted by the state Legislature.
•Cast in a timely manner, as prescribed by laws enacted by the state Legislature.
•Cast in a proper form as prescribed by laws enacted by the state Legislature.”

“Any process that does not follow these rules is not an election.  Anything that proceeds from it cannot be regarded as having any lawful import.”

“Most commentators suggest that a process of collecting pieces of paper with marks on them is an election regardless of errors, omissions, and even deliberate malfeasance.  This is a mistake.”

“as an honorable man, faced with massive illegality, he must act to protect the law.”

“central point is that the VP, as the presiding officer and final authority, has the unquestionable authority to declare that the states in question have not conducted presidential elections.”

“There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth, but no one has the authority to override his decision.”

“by not following their own laws, as enacted by their own legislatures, they have violated Article II, Section 1.  Thus, they have not conducted an election, and their results are void.”

“If the votes of all seven contested states are registered as zero, President Trump will have 232 votes, and Joe Biden will have 222.”

“The 12th Amendment says, "[T]he votes shall then be counted[.] ...  The person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President[.]"

“In plain language, Donald Trump will be re-elected, since he has a majority of the actual electoral votes.”
