What battleground state GOP legislators and the Court’s five originalists need to grasp is that without justice, stability is an injustice, and inevitably, a chimera.
Perhaps like me, your blood boiled when you read the response filed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to the “Emergency Application for Injunctive Relief filed by Congressman Mike Kelly and other Plaintiffs.”
Read for yourself the salvo fired in what is the modern equivalent of Fort Sumter. From Red State, December 8, 2020:
Petitioners ask this Court to undertake one of the most dramatic, disruptive invocations of judicial power in the history of the Republic. No court has ever issued an order nullifying a governor’s certification of presidential election results…. They make that request without any acknowledgment of the staggering upheaval, turmoil, and acrimony it would unleash. In issuing equitable relief, this Court rightly seeks to avoid inflaming social disorder. So to say that the public interest militates against Petitioners would be a grave understatement. Their suit is nothing less than an affront to constitutional democracy. [italics added]
Why did my blood boil? Why should yours? Because the response was a Declaration of Intimidation, and it wasn’t just filed for the purposes of calling off the U.S. Supreme Court in the brazen, evidence-abundant conspiracy to steal the presidency from Donald J. Trump in the Commonwealth -- and, not incidentally, nullify the ballots of a majority of Pennsylvania voters.
It was shots at the Court and GOP-controlled legislatures in the contested battleground states, save Nevada, where the Democrats hold sway. The insinuation: If these flagrantly bogus elections are overturned, there will be hell to pay.

Why do I feel we are at a huge crossroad as a nation?
The legislatures of PA, WI, MI, and GA could separately appeal to SCOTUS using the exact same reasons outlined in the TX case, which was rejected because TX did not have standing (not for the underlying reasons).
But this would require the RINOs to grow a spine and act quickly.
Your feelings are correct, the last effort and result we now listen for is either a win for our continued liberty, or the road least travelled shall be that which shall be trod.
I pray for the win, though we prepare for the alternative.

When besieged by Communists, use their own tactics against them.
I don't have any railroad cars.
If they were going to take action they would have done so by now instead of hiding behind the courts.
Invest in a high quality mechanochemical acceleration device.
Because we are.

Stability is security. Justice is liberty.
Ben Franklin was right.
There will e hell to pay. We are here because we didn’t eliminate the communist cancer while in its early stages of revolution in the sixties. But to another question. Why does the Presidential election deserve the fig life of legitimacyy? I don’t think it does.

The party about to lose the election by razor thin margins in the 11th hour in several states has asked for protection against vote fraud for decades.
The party about to win the election by razor thin margins in the 11th hour insisted vote fraud was rare, isolated and fought increased protections against fraud.
Whether or not the election is skewed by fraud, anyone unwilling to understand why the aggrieved party is skeptical and frustrated is acting in bad faith.

The dems most effective plank was getting property owners to board up their buildings a week before the election in case the dem candidate lost. The dem mayors and governors demonstrated they were willing to let their cities burn the summer before an election and during a supposed pandemic emergency and economic disaster. Brilliant and brutal, expect to see this again.

I will disagree a little bit. Hot lead is what cures Communism.
