Rep. Ralph Norman Defends 2021 Call for Martial Law

In an interview with CNN's Kaitlan Collins, Norman expressed no regret over his message, only that he misspelled 'martial' as 'marshall'.

Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) defended a 2021 text message he sent to then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, urging martial law to prevent the peaceful transfer of power to President Joe Biden.
Norman expressed no regret over the content of the message, only that he misspelled 'martial' as 'marshall'.
Norman's message was sent just days before Biden's inauguration and amidst widespread claims of election fraud, which have since been debunked.
Norman was one of nearly 150 Republicans in Congress who voted to reject the 2020 presidential election results.
Norman's comments were made during an interview with CNN's Kaitlan Collins, who noted that it was 'striking' to hear Norman stand by his call for martial law years later.
