Supreme Court Upholds Lower Court Rulings Identifying John Eastman as Key Figure in Trump’s Efforts to Overturn 2020 Election

The Supreme Court has rejected John Eastman's request to throw out court rulings that identified him as a key figure in former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election, affirming lower court decisions that resulted in Capitol riot investigators getting access to Eastman's emails. U.S. District Judge David Carter had previously found that Eastman lied to a federal court in Georgia, and the emails sought by the Jan. 6 committee are seen as key evidence in the investigation. The implications of this ruling for Eastman remain unclear.
