Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.)Whitehouse...asked (Alabama Attorney General Steve) Marshall what appeared to be a straightforward, simple question: “Is Joseph R. Biden of Delaware the duly elected and lawfully serving president of the United States of America?”
“He is the president of this country,” Marshall said.
“Is he the duly elected and lawfully serving president of the United States?” Whitehouse repeated.
“He is the president of our country,” Marshall said again.
“Are you answering that, omitting the language ‘duly elected and lawfully serving’ purposefully?” Whitehouse asked.
“I’m answering the question: he is the president of the United States,” Marshall responded.
“You have no view as to whether he was duly elected or is lawfully serving?” Whitehouse asked.
“I’m telling you he is the president of the United States,” Marshall said again.
Whitehouse then said he had no more questions, and the hearing resumed without Marshall acknowledging the validity of the 2020 vote.
Marshall opposes the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.
