Attorneys involved in former President Donald Trump's failed effort to overturn his election discussed how the "wild chaos" of Jan. 6 could pressure the Supreme Court to take up an election case — and may have had inside information about the court's deliberations, according to The New York Times.
Attorney John Eastman, who crafted Trump's strategy to use the Jan. 6 election certification to try to overturn his loss, said in an email exchange with other pro-Trump lawyers and campaign officials that he had learned of a "heated fight" among the justices about whether to hear an election case from Wisconsin.
