People have an anus and an opinion, I’s up to real Americans to decide what the author is using.
Baloney of course Texas had standing.
*************
Is anyone stupid enough to believe that if a Democrat loss was due to voting fraud in several states the USSC would state they had no standing? Of course not, the Court would unhesitatingly side with the plaintiff state.
We all know what’s going on here.
Yeah, well that will not be the case. The Democrats delight in destroying the Constitution. Without the Constitution, there are no constitutional values that will last. Is Thomas Perry really this stupid that he believes what he wrote?
The states that set up a voting system that violated the U.S. Constitution created the uncertainty about whether illegally cast votes caused a result different from that which would have occurred if the system was not in violation of the Constitution. Because the states who violated the Constitution created the uncertainty, the burden of proof should shift to them to prove that their unconstitutional system DID NOT create a result different from what would have occurred if their systems were legal. The burden of proof should be on the party that illegally created the uncertainty.
Ain’t buyin’ it.
I wonder if the Trump Traitors Amy Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, and Neil Gorsesh are putting reporters up to this as a way to save face.
I wouldn’t doubt it.
Garbage....total bovine excrement 👎
People can talk and write and deliberate all they want, but the people of this country are the ones in charge.

You must be thinking of the original America. In America 2.0 the people are no longer in charge. The Deep State is.
We’ll rectify that when we set up the next republic which will be based on freedom, liberty, laws, and morality. We’ll have a rare opportunity to fix the leaks in the current system that brought the country down.
I don't think it was horrible. Actually think it was a well timed and fairly brilliant legal maneuver that sets the stage for what is to come. That said it was a long shot , hail mary type effort that was more about shaping public opinion, putting pressure on SCOTUS and getting things teed up for the main event - the vote fraud side of the story.
The Texas case framed the debate that there was massive irregularities in the voting that violated the various election laws and that the votes should be tossed on the basis of legal ineligibly.
Sound legal argument but a bit hard for average person to grasp and even harder to get people to by into the reasoning and accept the outcome as legit and not some winning on a technicality.
Easier to get buy into on the much stronger fraud and foreign collusion to rig the election angle, which the Texas case did not address. .
The best thing would have been for the SCOTUS to accept the case an then merge the fraud and election rigging cases into the Texas case in the interest of judicial economy, but the SCOTUS chose to punt and kick the can down the road.
You're wrong, troll.
True, but I don’t see that happening. Perhaps I’m being too pessimistic.
At the end of the day the legislatures in those states are responsible for the electors. If they lacked the guts to do anything there is nothing anyone else can do about it
I think if anyone has standing, it would be the State legislators who's power was usurped by PA SC, Sec of State decree, governor's covid orders etc who changed election rules because that's the State legislators' job.
So much for We the People.
*************
Its now of, by and for the Deep State. We’re the exact opposite of the principles the country was founded on.
On to the next republic. We’ll know what things to prevent from happening next time.
I hope that SCOTUS is prepared to welcome new hard-left activist judges with a packed court.
We are in charge. If we allow the steal it will be because of that attitude ‘oh ttt get ray won’t let us be in charge any more. Whah wahh.
That’s the new third party wimp party.
Barrett, Gorsuch and Kavanagh have already confirmed that the Constitution is dead without an extra 2 Democrat justices. But the Dems will still pack the Court just because. I feel the most sorry for Justice Thomas, who gave Barrett the undeserved honour of administering the oath at her public swearing-in. She now hold the record for the fastest betrayal of those who supported her nomination.
[[However if states can do that and other states have no standing to object then the court is telling states their only options is accept subservient status,]]
I’ll add BUT ONLY WHEN the cheating is done by liberals, when done by conservatives, the courts will be quick to jump in and rule in favour of liberals
I bet Texas has standing to contribute whenever the fed govt wants to bail somebody out.
According to Article III, Section 2, the Federal courts have jurisdiction in “cases in law and equity, arising under this Constitution, the laws of the United States . . . [and] to controversies between two or more states . . . “. That seems to clearly give the USSC the authority to hear this case, and for Texas to file it. However, it’s quite possible that two centuries of Court activism and revisionism have warped this doctrine, as it has warped so many others.
