Morgan Warstler and John S. Robison, who have ties with former Gov. Rick Perry, advanced a fringe theory that state legislatures could overturn election results. Texas RickPerry insurrection January6thReport DonaldTrump
A mob of pro-Trump rioters attack the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 to overturn a legitimate presidential election.
The two Austin-area businessmen, Morgan Warstler and John S. Robison, met with Trump in an Oval Office meeting on Nov. 10, 2020, according to the report. The exact nature of what they discussed was not detailed, but Warstler in June that he had told the “whole Trump team in Oval” that “State legislatures can choose the electors-no matter what current state law OR state courts say” — in essence empowering Republican-controlled state lawmakers to overturn President Joe Biden’s win.
It’s also unclear how or why Warstler and Robison gained access to an Oval Office meeting with Trump to discuss election strategy. The two are not known fixtures among Texas or national politics and they do not appear to have any background in law or elections. Neither of them are notable contributors to Trump in a state where the former president has a healthy pool of billionaire megadonors.
Perry reportedly had connections to at least four people at GovWhiz, including two lobbyists who had been high-ranking officials in his administration and two others with close ties to the governor’s alma mater, Texas A&M. Robison said at the time that Perry did not set up the meeting and was not involved in GovWhiz during the process.
