News as hard as hardtack is a rare treat these days. While the opening paragraphs may be tooth-grinding for fans of Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, Factcheck.org* has an article on the Trump campaign's legal challenges to election results that is otherwise nothing but facts: details of the cases filed and outcomes (if any). There's no speculation about conspiracies or the possibility of the incumbent forting up at 1600 Penna. It's just dry, chewy, fact-filled facts. No opinion. No theorizing. Minimal use of adjectives.
Oh, for more of that, and less hot-breathing BS from either side!

* It's a pretty sure bet that a commenter will point out that Factcheck.org is largely funded by the Annenberg Foundation, better-known for funding donations to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Walter Annenberg was President Richard Nixon's pick for Ambassador to the British Crown and his legacy is not exactly hard Left. But let's stipulate they're not fans of Mr. Trump -- nevertheless, the article summarizes only what is known, limiting coverage to what is alleged in cases filed and the present status or outcome of those cases. There isn't any leeway to shade those facts. They're stuck with 'em as they stand.
