Kari Lake Appeals Election Lawsuit Dismissal; Gov. Abbott Defends Sending Buses to VP’s Home

Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has filed an appeal. She is contesting a Maricopa County judge’s ruling to dismiss her lawsuit challenging the midterm election results.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Dec. 27 defended sending illegal immigrant buses to Washington D.C. on Christmas Eve. Also on Dec. 27, President Biden responded to border policy Title 42 staying in place for now, saying the government will have to enforce it.

Some states are pushing back on presidential executive orders. Republican-controlled state legislatures are weighing their constitutionality.
