1. The most important part was the explanation of the "Chevron doctrine."

Which, as revealed here, is what Koch wants to make his bought Thomas & Trump's SCOTUS crew to demolish, so that at least 3 governmental agencies' regulatory powers over Big Oil & Gas are demolished.
Cuz "If you don't have the courts, you got nothing."

Glad Charles Koch is in the MSNBC spotlight. I hope they keep him there.

I hope Jack Smith connects Charles Koch in some way to Mike Roman, who ran Koch's former in-house intelligence unit on liberals.
Roman testified before the DC criminal grand jury that he'd become Trump’s director of Election Day operations. Roman delivered the list of false electors for Michigan and Wisconsin to US Representative Mike Kelly, who then gave them to US Senator Ron Johnson to take to the Senate on Jan 6. It's the kind of thing his old boss, Koch, would also have him do.

2. Thanks so much for the background!

And I sure remember the fake elector attempted handoff - that was when Ron Johnson pretended to be talking on his phone so he didn't have to ask reporters' questions. The corruption initiated from TFG runs throughout the Republican party.
