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.

If Trump has been holding some cards waiting for this to play out he had better play them now.

True. As hard as it had been to date it becomes even harder on Monday once the Electoral College meets.

OK, so SCOTUS says you don’t have to obey laws anymore. The Constitution is merely suggestions. Therefore, we don’t have to pay taxes, we don’t have to pay bills, we can rob and murder people and the government can’t touch us.

Oh, and since the law doesn’t matter, we need to stop paying those frauds in robes.

"Agreed. I’m done with voting and done with political parties. As far as I’m concerned, the Republican party has ceased to exist. "

That's just what the dems want.

How would you know given the massive voting fraud that went on?

Texas didn’t have standing.

For example, if your tenant violated his lease agreement with you in New York, I, who lives in Ohion has no connection to you or the lease, cannot sue the tenant.

And one senator. Good luck with that.

>>we have to ask ourselves if one state really has standing to sue over how another state runs its business.

Consider this, many states want to allocate their electoral votes based on the popular vote, regardless of how the people within their state voted.

To me that certainly opens the door for one state to demand a recount in ALL states (when that “takes effect”). It certainly is on the board.

“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.”

Probably won’t, and phase two, erasing the evidence that it ever happened, has already commenced.

I wonder how many people will ever see the inside of a jail over this? Probably less than 20.

No, let CA, OR, WA secede. Then we will fight them to restore the Union. Secession was never a good idea.

However, the justices bailed because they were afraid. But they’re setting off the very thing they were fearing.

Agreed.

"So...Supreme Court is worthless now?"

It's outlived its usefulness until the Democrats pack the court, which will be soon, and they will finish the job of turning this country into a third-world commie $hit hole.

All it takes is one of them, and one senator.

And a majority vote in both the House and the Senate to approve the objection. Good luck with that.
