[Dr. Franklin]

The supreme court lost all legitimacy when it refused to hear the valid complaints of Texas and other states when they were protesting the 2020 election. They said the state had no standing, what a crock.

SCOTUS refused to hear a case between the states under its original jurisdiction. It decided that the election results were a "political decision", not a legal one, and thus relied on the relatively novel and nebulous concept of "standing" to dodge the issue. Now SCOTUS may be seeking to blame the Congresscritters who failed to investigate the fraud. True, they didn't, but it was SCOTUS who first refused to hear the case.

Texas has no standing in the way Arizona, California, New York, etc. handles their elections, even national elections.

Texas can only challenge the way Texas handles elections, in Texas.

But, this case is interesting in that if a service member fails to uphold that almost same oath, we’d get charged with treason, conduct unbecoming, etc. - while Congress-critters will almost always skate away.

But no, it will not “drain the swamp”.
