Take a listen: James Brooks, a reporter at AlaskaBeacon, discusses the lawsuit over whether Rep. Eastman’s membership in the far-right Oath Keepers organization violates the state constitution. Brooks says the lawsuit has two main hurdles to overcome.

Rep. David Eastman, R-Wasilla, during a House floor session, March 1, 2017.

The judge, Jack McKenna, ruled Thursday that Eastman is likely ineligible to hold office, but that Eastman’s name can remain on ballots for the Nov. 8 election. The catch? Should he win, Eastman could still be removed from office, pending the results of a trial set to be held in December.

Trump's White House Switchboard Was Connected To Rioter's Phone During Capitol Insurrection, Says Former Jan. 6 AdvisorIn an interview with “60 Minutes,” former Rep.
