Peter Montgomery reports at Right Wing Watch:
On Monday night, Ellis tweeted that the Insurrection Act “does not apply” to the post-election wrangling. She was rewarded with comments calling her a bad lawyer, a shill for the left, and someone who’s only in the fight to make money and raise her profile. Some argued that this is war, and everything must be done to put Trump in office.
Shortly after 1:00 a.m. Tuesday morning, Ellis urged people complaining about her giving up the Insurrection Act as a tool to “consider that President Trump himself tweeted that it’s fake news he is even considering it. He is also a constitutionalist.” To be clear, Ellis has not abandoned her push to overturn the will of the voters and give Trump a second term.

To everyone balking at not using the Insurrection Act (which does not apply in this context), consider that President Trump himself tweeted that it’s fake news he is even considering it. He is also a constitutionalist.
We do not undermine the rule of law. #LawandOrder

It’s about using military force (which the Insurrection Act allows in some circumstances). Not a constitutional option here.
