President Trump’s recent post of a metaphorical “dumpster fire” labeled “2020” has reignited discussions about the Brunson Brothers’ lawsuit, Brunson v. Adams.
The case, filed by four brothers from Utah, alleges that Congress violated its constitutional duties by failing to investigate serious fraud allegations before certifying Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election. The lawsuit claims this failure renders the certification void under a 1878 U.S. Supreme Court precedent: “Fraud vitiates every thing, and a judgment equally with a contract — that is, a judgment obtained directly by fraud.”
According to an interview with Loy Brunson republished on November 15, 2024, the Supreme Court case remains active and could be revived at any time. The legal team states the case is “sitting on the shelf, perfectly preserved” and ready for implementation when political conditions align.
The lawsuit asserts that over a hundred members of Congress raised concerns about election fraud prior to January 6, 2021, but Congress proceeded without investigation. This action, the Brunsons claim, breaches their oaths to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
