Trumps fake Arizona electors got the green light from a scholar with ties to major conservative groups

When Republican lawmakers in Arizona convened in December 2020 to forward an alternate slate of electors to Congress in a bid to overturn the election of Joe Biden, they were acting on the advice of a little known conservative constitutional scholar with ties to American Legislative Exchange Council, or ALEC, and Federalist Society member.
The role played by Rob Natelson, a former University of Montana law professor and Federalist Society member who serves on ALECs board of scholars, in guiding the development of the alternate electoral slate in Arizona has been previously reported, but has received little attention to date.
The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol recently issued subpoenas to alternate electors in seven states, including Nancy Cottle and Lorraine B. Pellegrino, two of the 11 electors from Arizona. The subpoenas compel Cottle and Pellegrino to produce documents relevant to the investigation by Feb. 11 and to appear for deposition on Feb. 16. Signed by the committee chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), the subpoenas notified Cottle and Pellegrino that the committee is seeking information about your role and participation in the purported slate of electors casting votes for Donald Trump and, to the extent relevant, your role in the events of January 6, 2021.

"Whereas, the right to clean air is not specifically guaranteed in the Constitution, it therefore cannot be regulated as to its inherit efficaciousness in actual breathing."
QED.
Death-spiral Capitalism at its worst.
