In this episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce break down:

– Justice Breyer’s retirement and President Biden’s forthcoming nomination of Breyer’s successor;

– The reported scheme to subvert the Electoral College process and put forth fake, pro-Trump electors from states Trump lost in the 2020 election; 

– Trump saying he’d pardon January 6th rioters and his reported involvement in a scheme to seize voting machines following the 2020 election;

– The January 6th Committee’s efforts to compel John Eastman, the author of a memo outlining methods for Trump to overturn the election results, to comply with a subpoena; and

– A judge’s decision to reject a plea deal in the federal hate crimes case against Ahmaud Arbery’s killers, who were already convicted of murder in a Georgia state case.
