I am tired of people saying we can’t win in front of the Supreme Court. I’m annoyed by those who say my firm is too partisan to be effective. Today we won a huge redistricting fight before SCOTUS and a ballot access case before the Nebraska Supreme Court. The lesson: When we fight we win.

Going on foreign soil and announcing, without *any* evidence that American elections are dishonest—simply because you are a lying sore loser—should be an impeachable offense. Presidents should not be allowed to intentionally undermine confidence in the US to leaders overseas.
