If y’all are holding out ANY hope for this case, just drop it. You’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Nothing will come of this. The USSC does not have the power to remove elected officials, nor do they have prosecutorial powers. I’d say it’s about a 10% chance they will even read it. The only way is the military.

My quizzicals were stated upthread at 553, I think it was.
As do you, I don’t see the US SC as a fount of courage on The US Constitution, and even less as an arbiter over wholesale abdications by State Legislatures, which the US Senate soley relies on to also perpetuate a corrupt election.
FAILURE of the High Court is one more Step to MIL.
The SC is the last of the Three Branches to unequivocally reveal themselves to be as inadequate or corrupt, as these cases are their High Noon moment.
We will probably watch them take the wrong step, but meanwhile, one might hope.
Loy Brunson’s hope was a little catching, of course. A sad chapter to see the brothers Activism, on our behalf, dashed.
And, no one is much covering it, nevermind raucously supporting it. (Sigh)

I agree. SCOTUS purview does not cover fixing a coup; call it insurrection, revolution, etc.
Below a few clips:
Our Republican Leaders Have Failed Us
By Jack Gleason
We need to replace the current leaders of the Republican Party — RNC chair Ronna McDaniel (niece of Mitt Romney), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and current House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy. They have failed miserably in their duties.
But we can't insist that they recount the votes or complain that they didn't support Trump candidates. They'll just dismiss us as “right-wing extremist election-deniers.”
Instead, we need to use their own rules against them.
...............
McCarthy used his Congressional Leadership Fund — a super-PAC with over $165 million — to help “moderate” primary candidates and incumbents succeed over challengers from the “far-right” and “election-deniers.” Reporters were able to dig through public finance records to uncover the links between McCarthy and others supporting “moderate” Republicans over MAGAs. One group was… “mostly funded by Riot Games executive Marc Merrill and Cathryn Murdoch, the wife of former Fox News executive James Murdoch, who are both major donors to the Democratic National Committee.”
...........
Mitch McConnell is also tied in with FTX and worked to derail MAGA candidates on the Senate side. Open Secrets reported a $2.5 million FTX donation to his Senate Leadership Fund.
As more information comes out about FTX and their part in laundering American donations to Ukraine back to Democrats, both McConnell and McCarthy are vulnerable to charges of being involved, potentially causing embarrassment for the GOP, something the mainstream media would be delighted to exploit.
...................
McDaniel also failed to support conservative GOP primary winners in the general election, leading to losses that were totally unnecessary. In political campaigns, data is king. But the RNC database was so inaccurate that it did more harm than good by wasting valuable volunteer time reaching out to persuade leaning voters and ensuring conservatives made it out to the polls. Instead of looking at the voter rolls to eliminate the dead and relocated, the GOP did nothing.
“Wisconsin canvassers went to a door where a dozen people lived. They knocked or rang the bell asking for Bill and Sally, on the voter roll, leaning GOP. “What, says the ancient resident?” “I've lived here 12 years and never heard of them!”
“This happened so much, canvassers communicated with the local voter integrity team noting how dismal the lists were. One senior member of a statewide race said they knew they were “screwed when our canvassers reported back.”
Then, she abandoned her party's candidates after the polls closed…
.....................
These three alone are messing up the party big time and need to be either impeached or voted out.
