Pennsylvania officials on Thursday filed a blistering brief at the Supreme Court rebuking the Texas lawsuit seeking to overturn President Donald Trump's defeat in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, casting the move as using a "cacophony of bogus claims" to support a "seditious abuse of the judicial process."
"Texas seeks to invalidate elections in four states for yielding results with which it disagrees. Its request for this Court to exercise its original jurisdiction and then anoint Texas's preferred candidate for President is legally indefensible and is an affront to principles of constitutional democracy," wrote Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro.
The lawsuit, the court filing said, rested on a "surreal alternate reality."
"Texas's effort to get this Court to pick the next President has no basis in law or fact. The Court should not abide this seditious abuse of the judicial process, and should send a clear and unmistakable signal that such abuse must never be replicated."

blistering....lol
😂 typical fake news outlet, ...blistering? You *itches need to come down to Texas and we’ll show you blistering! By the way why does it take Two brainless ass snowflakes to write one Stupid article... Typical stupid idiots.
Yep, CNN wrote the response. It sounds just like them.
Their blistering rebuke has a massive typo on the first page.
So what!
Think about that...a State's Attorney General doesn't know
that America is a Constitutional Republic.
He could have said..."an affront to principles of constitutional republicanism"...but didn't.
That's a pretty good indicator of a failed education system's
teaching of civics...up to and including law school.
PA Speaker of the House, Bryan Cutler was joined by PA House majority leader, Kerry Benninghoff in filing an amici curiae brief AGAINST the State of Pennsylvania and in favor of Texas’ application for relief.
Nice.
If you have the facts, pound the facts. If you don’t, pound the table.
Consider all of us blistered......oooooohhhh.
The rogue d-bag AG doesn't speak for the people of PA nor does the counterfeit PA electors. They should put some ointment on it.
They are not valid to begin with!!
“Blistering”
“Rebuke”
Nope. No bias there.
To claim the lawsuit is baseless because Texas is merely “disagreeing” with the results in the four states in question is a cop-out. The Lone Star State could very easily sue all the states Biden carried because it didn’t like the outcome, but the lawsuit is limiting itself to states where the integrity and constitutionality of the election were violated.
Great!
No legal argument, just “They are meanies.”
Their response is both fallacious AND mendacious.
PA’s response seems a lot like: “Everyone else is cheating, and so I cheated too. But since we are all cheating, it doesn’t really count as cheating.”
Yes. Disenfranchise all the DEAD voters. All the DOUBLE VOTERS, all the UNDERAGE VOTERS, all the ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTERS! Disenfranchise them all and Trump wins. Throw out the illegal votes and Trump wins.
I am surprised at that..it kind of seemed like they were weaseling out. I think it has so much momentum they couldnt hide from it any longer
Well... no. Those 4 States VIOLATED the LAW. Agreement has sh*t all to do with it.
What evidence do the Democrats have to support their assertion that the claims are bogus? And, exactly what is "seditious" abuse?
Are these Democrats aware of the Pennsylvania State laws in connection with elections?
Are they aware that the Pennsylvania legislature is the sole source of election law?
They have a few more hours to submit a responsible defense instead of their hysterical claims! It is their own irresponsible and unjustified changes to the law that put them in this fix.
