YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Bowers recalled Trump legal adviser John Eastman urging the Arizona legislature vote overturn the result.

“That we would de-certify the electors because we had plenary authority to do so,” he said.

Bowers said he refused.

“You’re asking me to do something that has never been done in the history of the United states -- and I am going to put my state through that without sufficient proof? And that is going to be sufficient for me?” Bowers told Eastman.

Bowers also said he got a call from GOP Representative Andy Biggs of Arizona asking him to sign-on to a letter or support decertification of electors, “and I said I would not.”
