Trump campaign attorney Jenna Ellis said that the rejections to hear campaign election lawsuits are a denial of his right to due process under the Constitution.
“They need to recognize that President [Donald] Trump absolutely gets the same opportunities to argue his case that President George W. Bush did in 2000,” Ellis told Newsmax on Tuesday night. “And to treat him differently than every other sitting president in every other election is manifestly unfair according to due process and our Constitution.”
But Ellis said that over the past several weeks, the court has partaken in “dereliction of duty and fidelity to the U.S. Constitution by refusing to take up cases.” However, aside from the Supreme Court, “if this election and all of the fraud is not corrected by Jan. 6,” there has been a failure to handle election fraud cases in “the judicial branch the entire way down,” according to Ellis.
Trump’s lawyers are slated to bring several more lawsuits before the Supreme Court.
Ellis noted that the state legislatures in key states—if there is no remedy—have also failed in their duties. She argued that it is “a failure of the GOP in these states,” noting that the legislatures have the plenary power to certify electors under the Constitution.
The campaign on Tuesday night filed a writ of certiorari in the Supreme Court to challenge the Wisconsin Supreme Court decision that allowed about 50,000 absentee ballots to be counted. Their suit argued that it violated Article II of the Constitution and Wisconsin state law.

This marks the second Constitutional challenge to illegal mail voting filed by the Campaign, following a petition from Pennsylvania filed on December 20,” according to a news release from the campaign.
Trump attorney Jim Troupis said the Wisconsin high court did not “address the merits” of their arguments, according to the release.
Earlier this month, the campaign moved to challenge in the U.S. Supreme Court three Pennsylvania Supreme Court rulings that changed mail-in ballot laws in the state. However, the Supreme Court’s docket shows a Jan. 22, 2021. deadline—two days after the presidential inauguration day—for when Pennsylvania is required to respond to the request for appeal.
Time isn’t on Trump’s side as both chambers of Congress are slated to meet on Jan. 6 to count the electoral votes for all 50 states. Some House lawmakers have said they plan to object to the counting of votes in key states, although the challenge requires at least one senator.

If they want you gone,they will destroy everything and everyone to accomplish it.....
George W. Bush is different. He is a deep state, NWO, Beast Kingdom goon.
On January 6th, the Congressional proceedings NEED to open with objections from the House and Senate to ANY acceptance of electors from states utilizing the Dominion voting systems. Dominion voting systems are a national security threat to the USA
This forces the debate over their integrity to the floor of the Congress and instantly defines the traitors and the patriots in the room
As was more than half the Country
Trump came to play in the swamp’s sandbox. Fighting for America, for the American people. America first.
The corruption in D.C. is thick and they’d not have this outsider playing by his rules...it is the rules of the swamp. You’ll play by our rules or you’ll not play...at all!
The coup of a sitting American president has been finalized. They’ve won. Despicable, dark and sinister are those in the shadow government.
Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer spoke of in glee, in response to then-president-elect Trump’s criticism of U.S. intelligence agencies. “Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s host Rachel Maddow.
We’ve just witnessed the largest coordinated conspiracy against an innocent man and those in his orbit.
Our votes have been nullified, our 1st amendment trampled. Equal justice/due process denied, rule of law destroyed.
Over the last two decades, we’ve seen the greatest transfer of wealth in world history...from the American middle class/American economy to the communist Chinese.
After 911, the government put in place and is now continuing a surveillance state. Giving freedom for security, we now have neither (Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson).
I submit to you, freedom and liberty in America are an illusion. I predict...not hard to imagine, these people are now coming after our arms. Bet on it.
They will deploy multiple avenues to deny us of our 2nd amendment rights. Changing the law to allow gun manufacturers to be sued for people using their product. Changing rules to reflect national safety in regards to firearms. Dry up ammo supplies as they did during Obama admin.,
Weapon/magazine/accessory bans.
Hate to sound cynical and negative, but it’s come from their own mouths.
Well, I suppose we could always appeal to the u.n. Right? /S
America. A wholly owned subsidiary of China Inc.

Ok got that - time trumps fairness and honesty! When ya have the media, the cops, and the judges in your back pocket, time can simply run out!
I look at people like McCain, Graham, Waters, Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, Swalwell, McConnell and Schumer and think to myself...good grief! How in the hell did these people get into and stay so long in power?
Sen. Feinstein had an aide/chauffeur for twenty years..turned out to be a Chinese spy. Swalwell’s latest honey pot scandal turns out to be a Chinese spy. Not to mention the Russian honey pot Anna Chapman that hobnobbed all through D.C. for years givin it up for the fatherland of Russia.
We have some of the dumbest damn people leading this country...I mean just freaking dumb. Oh, can't leave out Sheila Jackson Lee...Heaven help us.
Well said Sir. Unfortunately I believe that your thesis is accurate.
But she is a nut, slut, racist, homophobe, hates clean water and air, wants to rape the environment, force everyone to have oil wells installed in their back yards, repeal all environmental regulations and food protection regulations, wants to bring back slavery and hates children and soft furry animals.
