How can you over turn an election that is incomplete?
We remember We remember
Oh, please!
What the hell is the goal behind this lawsuit?
The cowardly RINOs had better prepare to hunker down in some kind of bunkers. They must not understand that people are pissed off like never before.
Its actually a good sign.
If he had “signed onto” this legal attempt, it not only would have signified his intent ahead of time...but he would also be seen as acting in a partisan fashion verses performing his non-partisan job of calling the electors.
My 1-1/2 cents...
Does Pence not think he has the authority to refuse to accept tainted electors?
What exactly is the relief they’re requesting?
Same response now as with the other times the article has been posted: No one knows what’s going to happen, or what VP Pence will or will not do.
I think Pence was one of the leaks all along at this point.
Jesus FReepers! Calm da F down will ya?
I have a good feeling about the judge. It may be that everyone is in agreement to force VP to call the election but rather to cluster-buck it so that it can be thrown to the house. If these questions are under litigation Pence may be STUCK.
Perhaps that is all they need....
Heard Gohmert explain that this suit was to invalidated, that is determine as Un-constitutional the The Electoral Count Act of 1887. This Act is un-Constitutional, but that has not stopped it being codified into Title 3 Chapter 1 of the US Code.

Must be a plan we don’t know about.....otherwise Pence is gone!
Remember when Pence went to see Hamilton right after the election?
He received lots of jeers after the performance from the cast who taunted his party in the open. It caused awkward moments for his son but he explained that this is “freedom” to his son. It didnt rattle him but can piss off any normal American sitting there as I would tell the cast to F themselves and do the play again if that were done to me. This may mean something or nothing, but Pence will do what is best for him.
Pence was never going to do anything to upset the Deep State.
?
This suit is as ill-conceived as the constent degree between Raffelsdouchberger and Abrams to rewrite the election laws of Georgia. Pence cannot accede to any private settlement that constrains controls or establishes his power to exercise the discretion granted him under the US constitution.
Love Gohmert, but this was lunacy.
He might be the last line of defense, but he has nothing to do with the offensive options that follow.
“an attempt to argue that the vice president has sole authority to determine which presidential electors Congress will count when it certifies the results of the election”
Ludicrous on it’s face.
Should Walter Mondale have had the power to ensure 4 more years for Jimmy Carter in 1980...at Reagan’s expense?
Of course not.
If Pence can pick and choose slates of electors, can't any VP do the same, from now on? It will be SOP for the Dems to nominate electors in any state they lose, and for a Dem VP to recognize them.
I long for a solution to this crisis (that the Dems created by CHEATING), but this is a bad way to go. I think the swing states need to recognize there was fraud, the totals are not correct, and rescind certification.
The alternative is CWII.
