This will not end nicely, guaranteed.

**************

The courts have lost all sense of fairness and objectivity.

This is not just about legislating from the bench and pushing the liberal agenda. Its about displacing the Deplorables. Make no mistake, this outrageous abuse of power is directed at us.

1) what is the balance on the 10th circuit?

2) any chance of en band review.

Preposterous and infuriating argument, isn’t it?

They are effectively saying “We need to see incontrovertible evidence that many elections were stolen by vote fraud before we will allow this.”

It’s like saying “We won’t allow you to install door locks on your house until you’ve been burgled four or five times.”

Two is a substantial number of illegal votes because judges are refusing to enforce the law in an attempt to overthrow the legitimate Government.

How much sedition and treason is necessary to justify hanging Traitors?

Is that a question to be posed to a corrupt Judiciary or to an outraged citizenry? Are we close to the real reason the second amendment was substantiated in the Constitution?

I have seen civil war up close and personal and it is a HORROR to be avoided at all costs. But I fear that if we sit on our backsides and let these Fascist assholes keep playing their games unchecked they will lead us directly to that war.

A few lynchings with real tar and feathers instead of ropes done now may save a hell of a lot of lives, but if this goes on much further it will reap open violence in the land.

America was far better of a place to live when it was God we trusted rather than man. Man is corrupt, and the more faith we invest in man the more power we give to that corruption.

America needs to repent of the Democratic Party officially rejecting God. But we did not stand up against that then and we are not likely to stand up to “Judges” making blatantly humanistic illegal lawfare.

I fear for the soul of America, land that I love.

Had that been at issue, the question would have been correctly asked “Have substantial numbers of legal voters been disenfranchised by this law, and what evidence can the plaintiff provide?”

The courts must rightly assume that the legislature has the absolute right to pass legislation AS THEY SEE FIT, unless and until the legislation has been proven to violate a constitutional protection. Not the other way around.

This is a clear usurpation of legislative authority by the court... All judged involved in this action should be physically removed and hanged from lampposts.

Beware of courts in KS: they may not be dispensing real justice.

This case has nothing to do with Kansas courts. The opinion was issued by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, located in Denver. It is a federal court.

How is this for irony, the political party fighting for no-id voting (’D’emocrat) is the same party that suppressed voting in post-reconstruction South and in the urban cities like Tammany Hall (NYC), Chicago, Kansas City etc. Without their CRIMES, this would be a no-brainer like 98% of the rest of the world!

The reporting omitted the most salient facts about the case— the identities of the judges.

The three judge panel that heard the case consisted of: Monroe McKay, a Carter appointee who died after oral arguments but before the opinion was released, so he technically did not vote; Mary Beck Briscoe, a Clinton appointee; and Jerome Holmes, an African American who was a Bush 43 appointee.

You had three liberals sitting on the panel. The resulting opinion was not a surprise.

Also, while Kansas is a part of the 10th Circuit along with Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming and Utah, the 10th Circuit is headquartered in the federal courthouse in Denver.

Just a clarification here that this was a 'panel' of the 10th operating (remotely) out of Salt Lake City. The logical 1st choice in the on-going process would be to petition the ENTIRE 10th Court ('En banc') for a decision before going to the 'Supremes'!

As usual, the headline is #FakeJudicialNews.

It wasn't "The Tenth Circuit" ruling on this - it was a TWO-judge panel, not even the usual three-judge panel, because one of the fossils from the Tenth kicked off before the "decision".

The two remaining globalists agreed, so this is where we got this piece of cr@p ruling.The three judges were Mary Briscoe, a Clinton appointee; Jerome Holmes, a Bush Jr. appointee; and Monroe McKay, a Carter appointee. Judge McKay died on March 28, 2020, at the age of 91, so the vote was 2-0. Tenth Circuit rules permit a panel of two surviving judges to release an opinion when the two judges agree with each other.

The original District of Kansas "judge" was a Smirking Chimp [Dubya] globalist named Julie A. Robinson.

Correct. Most Court of Appeals actions begin with a 3 Judge panel which may expand to an en banc review, or it may skip this step and go straight to the SCOTUS. In this case, one of the members of the 3 judge panel died, leaving 2 judges on the panel. Since their vote was 2-0, the opinion was allowed to stand. Given how the Courts have dealt with voter eligibility issues, this may be over.

The judges said the state had failed to provide convincing arguments in its appeal that Kansas was grappling with an issue over non-citizens attempting to register to vote.

WTF??!! Does this mean laws against murder can't be enforced because "...legislators failed to provide convincing arguments that a substantial number of murderers successfully murdered someone." ???

Idiotic lib judges need to be jailed!

I should think that proof of ONE illegal registering to vote should be substantiation of needing some kind of law against it. Oh, & I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that their governor is a Democrat.

IMHO, our Founders would have been shooting sometime between 1906 and 1918 when marxism first took control of the WH and Congress.

Flawed reasoning. Where did they pull this substantial number standard from? We have tens of millions of illegals in this country, and they should not vote.

This must be taken to the Supreme Court where it will be overturned.
