| Good morning and welcome to Fox News First. Here's what you need to know as you start your day ... Missouri, 5 other states ask to join Texas in Supreme Court fight against swing states
President Trump's election challenge remains a long shot, legal experts say, but five additional states announced Thursday that they not only support a Texas lawsuit to overturn key Joe Biden battleground victories and hand them to President Trump, but they want to become parties to the suit themselves and take their own cases to the Supreme Court to "represent the interests" of their own citizens. The states include Missouri, Utah, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Arkansas. The states also said they back the arguments so far made to the court by Texas and the Trump 2020 Campaign, which have argued that not only are the actions taken by Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan unconstitutional, but they also open up the potential for widespread voter fraud. "All the unconstitutional changes to election procedures identified in the Bill of Complaint have two common features: (1) They abrogated statutory safeguards against fraud that responsible observers have long recommended for voting by mail, and (2) they did so in a way that predictably conferred partisan advantage on one candidate in the presidential election," the Missouri brief from Wednesday, which was joined by 16 other states, said.

Time magazine announced late Thursday that it named President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris its Person of the Year in a profile that was fiercely critical of President Trump. Charlotte Alter, the author of the piece, wrote that Biden's pledge "to 'restore the soul of the nation' felt like antiquated hokum at a moment when Hurricane Trump was tearing through America, ripping through institutions, chewing up norms and spitting them out." The picks will likely be embraced by Democrats who see the pair as a return to normal in Washington, but criticized by Trump supporters who will likely see the move as another sign that the Biden administration will benefit from a friendly media.

The content of some campaign fundraising emails by Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner infringed on the McCloskeys' right to receive a fair trial, Circuit Judge Thomas Clark II ruled Thursday, according to the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
