Trump's Team in House: Elections Under New Scrutiny

House Republicans have hired two former Trump officials involved in the 2020 fake elector scheme for their committee overseeing elections. Joshua Findlay and Thomas Lane, who worked on the Trump campaign's legal team, are now advising the House on election law. This move comes as the House prepares for its role in certifying the 2024 election. Findlay was involved in planning for fake electors in Georgia, while Lane was part of the scheme in Arizona. This hiring sparks concerns about the integrity of future elections and the potential for challenges if the GOP loses.The committee has also met with groups linked to Trump, including the Conservative Partnership Institute and the Election Integrity Network. Findlay will help GOP observers monitor key states, and Lane is leading an investigation into the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue. Republicans see this as an opportunity to investigate allegations of fraud after the 2020 election. However, Democrats are criticizing the lack of transparency and the growing partisanship within the committee.
