Fox news:

155, ORIG. TEXAS V. PENNSYLVANIA, ET AL. The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot. Statement of Justice Alito, with whom Justice Thomas joins: In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing of a bill of complaint in a case that falls within our original jurisdiction. See Arizona v. California, 589 U. S. ___ (Feb. 24, 2020) (Thomas, J., dissenting). I would therefore grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue.

“o Barnett, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh stepped away...wow absolutely pathetic!”

The way I read it even Thomas did not support the case and would not grant relief.

“(Thomas, J., dissenting). I would therefore grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue.”

I am not really surprised. Trump had standing and had a better chance on his own.

Well, now the Ds don’t have to campaign on court packing. The court is packed in their favor and don’t tell me just how wonderful Amy Coney Barrett is - she whiffed on the first PA case when any D appointee would have voted and now she does this. And this “conservative” is on the Court for the next 40 years - just like John Paul Stevens.

Article III gives SCOTUS the REQUIREMENT to deal with
TREASON. they did not. what was the quid pro quo?
honeypots? $? children? threats?

it really does not matter.

THEY ought now be the DEFENDANTS in a TREASON
case by the PATRIOTS of AMERICA. They enabled
a Chinese-German-Ukranian takeover by FRAUD
by failing to do the ONLY job for which they
are given power and money and pension.

OK. Has the court ruled on Trump with the Texas decision?

Not exactly. Texas moved to file a complaint against Pennsylvania. Trump moved to intervene, join the case. SCOTUS denied Texas's motion, and dismissed everything else, including Trump's request to intervene. But that is not a decision on the merits of Trump's claims. Those could still come in another way, like an appeal from the lower courts.

What next. I am not ready or willing to surrender. Nor am I willing to allow the Democrats to steal the election.

The vote counters can do as they please. We no longer have any electoral recourse to our rulers, who will eventually be the Red Chinese.

“The court has not spoken on this matter. Perhaps they are leaving this to those who have the courage of their convictions to exercise their constitutional rights.... I mean, if they dare.”

Good point.

Oh God have mercy

That’s out only hope and I have no idea how He would do that for us.

I find this all very interesting in light of the National Christmas Tree lighting ceremony and the message President Trump gave.

It like God gave one last message to go out about Jesus.

For those of you advocating violence, STOP IT! You are putting a target on your back.

Damn straight. And you are putting a web-site that has the name of Free Republic's founder - AND NOT YOUR NAME - under more scrutiny.

Stop advocating for violence on a web-site that you don't own. If you want to crap on a web-site, start your own.

As I stated some days ago, President Trump has two choices.

That's it. Those are the choices.

He’s not going to do that because, for one thing, the top brass wouldn’t support him. They’ve been trying to undermine Trump since he took office.

“I don’t know where Trump goes from here. “

Trump goes to Twitter to trash Kav [Kennedy’s hand-picked successor], Gorsuch and Comey [and thereby the Federalist Society].

Buncha loosers....

-- The only remedy left is Secession. --

Negative as to only remedy. Dissolve the constitution. Articles of Confederation were dissolved, piece of cake.
