It seems astounding that the Court would wade into such waters two years to the day after the Congressional vote to install Joe Biden as President.

Not this sh*t again. All that has happened is that this petition for certiorari has been submitted by the petitioners and dutifully filed and docketed by the Clerk of the Supreme Court . . . as the Clerk will always do for any petition that meets the Court's bare minimum standards for formatting, etc.

The petition is now scheduled to go to Conference on January 6, 2023, where, yes, it will be "considered" by the Justices, to see if they wish to take up the case. That is to say, the petition will be handled just as every single cert. petition that ever gets filed -- including those written out, long-hand, by jail house lawyers on lined paper who are allowed to proceed in forma pauperis -- gets handled.

In short, there is nothing whatsoever that is "astounding" here. The petition will surely be very quickly denied by the Court following the Conference next month, and that'll be the end of that.

You know, if people just had some understanding of how things actually work, they wouldn't be forever getting their panties in a bunch whenever some shyster charlatan spits out another bogus story like this. Wise up yourselves.

You said a mouthful. Insurrection Act. Quo Warranto Writs. Magic executive orders. And whatever Lindell was nattering on about. You’d think we’d collectively learn. Plenty of my brothers and sisters take the bait every single time. And I reject utterly the notion expressed on this thread that at least someone is doing something. If that which one is doing has zero chance of success, then you’re doing nothing

Yep, the process is working fine and there is, as you imply, nothing "astounding" about that process.

However, I would argue that the subject matter of the case is what is actually astounding.

Catch-22 for the Court. You hold them to their Oath of Office or break your own Oath in not taking up the case.

Not everybody will see it that way, but many will.
