A federal judge appointed by President Donald Trump rejected what he called a “creative” lawsuit on Thursday. It was a suit that Georgia’s assistant attorney general warned would cause the Peach State’s largest disenfranchisement since the Jim Crow era.
“To halt the certification at literally the 11th hour would breed confusion and disenfranchisement that I find have no basis in fact and law,” U.S. District Judge Steven Grimberg declared at the end of a roughly two-and-a-half hour hearing.
The celebrity attorney making the breathtaking request was L. Lin Wood, Jr., who also represented former U.S. Congressman Gary Condit and the alleged victim in the Kobe Bryant case. Wood has also represented Nicholas Sandmann and JonBenét Ramsey’s family. Wood currently represents Kyle Rittenhouse and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
While Wood sued in his capacity as an average Georgia voter, the judge made clear that this did not give the lawyer a basis to sue.
“There is no doubt that the right to vote, even an individual’s right to vote is sacrosanct,” Judge Grimberg added, adding that this “doesn’t mean that individual voters have the right to dictate” the manner in which that vote is counted.

Yeah, never let a little realism creep into ideological wishful thinking.
Someone as ignorant and clueless as you probably shouldn’t be calling other people names.
Did you read the exhibits? I didn’t think so.
There were affidavits from eyewitnesses and more.
If the choice is 10 million or 20 million, I'll take 10, thanks. This isn't the time to pout because we lost, we have to keep looking forward to the next fight.
When Harris Biden gets done with him he’ll wish he ruled otherwise
See my tagline.
Read the Twelfth Amendment.
In 1876 the election was decided _one_ _day_ before the expiration of President Grant’s term.
One day.
I leave it as an exercise for you to figure out how that happened...
Hint—the state certifications didn’t mean squat.
Good God, you love your negativism.
The Dems stole the election and the Deep State/GOPe isn’t going to help Trump fight the steal. Checkmate. This is playing out just like every other chapter in the now 4 year long coup against POTUS.

I read it. Totally outrageous. Robbery. But the envelopes are destroyed and there is no way to verify each ballot as I see it. We need some arrests for ballot harvesting, etc., and we’re not going to get it.
Wow this thread is Eeyore central!
If you think the courts or congress are going to step in, you’re deluding yourself. And Trump by himself can do nothing. Sorry to pour cold water, but that’s reality.
GOO judges are good and bad.
DEM judges are uniformly horrible.
So stick with the GOP.
Although, if Georgia certifies tomorrow, doing it will be a criminal act... given they know the fraud happened, and know Wood’s legal argument is rock solid.
P
I put two and two together and infer that these judges are GOPe approved nominations fed to Trump and of course McConnell moved heaven and earth to get them through. But they aren't Trumpists. That's my take on it.
The votes in Georgia were counted in a foreign country. It doesn’t matter what they certify tomorrow. It’s unconstitutional and illegal.
Has Lin made any statement?
didn’t he 100% guarantee a win?
or was the appeal process built into that guarantee

Really? You read all 189 pages. Ok.
Just go away.
Wow, that is a bit breathtaking. Very much echoes Stalin: 'The people that vote decide nothing. The people that count the votes decide everything.'
