This is going to get worse: Per Detroit News

LANSING — An attorney for Green Party candidate Jill Stein moved today to disqualify two Michigan Supreme Court justices from hearing cases related to the state presidential recount, saying both Chief Justice Robert Young Jr. and Justice Joan Larsen have been mentioned by President-elect Donald Trump as potential nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court, and their involvement in the case would create an appearance of impropriety.

Southfield attorney Mark Brewer said in a court filing that both Young and Larsen appeared on lists of names Trump said he was considering for filling a U.S. Supreme Court vacancy, and Trump has said the list of names is “definitive and I will chose only from it in picking future justices.”

Now they want to disqualify two S Judges? They have this all plotted out- makes you wonder, they are hitting back hard at every angle but yet, Jill hasn’t been able to win any position she has ran for which makes me think even more so, Hillary and Soros are behind this scheming. If we do X, then ALREADY have Y and Z planned and know the outcome.

No, Stein isn’t.
The requirement to show evidence of fraud has never been met.

Right so think about this.

When Stein went to Goldsmith she was asking for the recount here to start two days early, over ruling our state law in fact.

But she also got him to say that he was essentially in charge of whether or not the recount could stop.

Or he volunteered for the job.

Whichever it was, it was icing on the cake and not necessary for the ruling.

So this guy is in this for the power-sadist element. He loved saying that our state laws don't matter and he was bigger than them. He loved adding that he alone could say when the recount would end.

Now do you think this same jerk is going to say 'oh sure, stop the recount'? I remain doubtful.

I don't recall seeing that tweet. Was that on @realDonaldTrump or a different Twitter feed?

MAGA_trump is @MAGAtrump5. He's a lawyer. He seems well-connected in GOP politics.

“Chief Justice Robert Young Jr. and Justice Joan Larsen have been mentioned by President-elect Donald Trump as potential nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court, and their involvement in the case would create an appearance of impropriety.”

Mere appearances are not necessarily technically correct!

We begin counting tomorrow in a ton of counties.

And the bill racing through our state congress is going to charge Jill for the costs.

From AG Schuette via Twitter: A.G. Bill Schuette ‏@SchuetteOnDuty 54m54 minutes ago COA said there is no conflict with its ruling & fed court, so recount should end now. For clarity, we are filing to dissolve the fed TRO. COA= Court of Appeals (which ordered the recount to end) So give it time, the fat lady has sung!

Of course not. But I want Stein for getting full credit for first draining votes for Hillary, and then exposing the fraud crooked Hillary was counting on for her coronation.

Not what my e-mail from Michigan GOP said. I am a volunteer and they said we are counting for now.

Ditto.

Hey I am HOPING she does a recount. I am hoping the recount demonstrates massive voter fraud.

Be careful of what you want here- we want ANY candidate to be able to recount any election right down to the individual precinct level.

This may be a head-fake by the dems- they do not want voter fraud to be discovered, so think carefully - how do THEY benefit from this? That is all they ever do anything for.

Who would remove the two MI SC justices? They would have to recuse themselves. Won’t happen.

Stein, I believe, still has the option to appeal to the State SC.

The recount has been stopped.
The recount continues
The recount has been stopped
The recount continues...

I'm very confused. Which is it?

He will. If he doesn’t AG will go immediately to 6th circuit and ask them to dissolve his order because he is costing Michigan taxpayers money by extending an illegal recount.
