Thanks. Fingers crossed.
Not true. They’ve lost in the lower courts, allowing them to pursue it in The SCOTUS.
If it’s so frivolous, then why is it even on the docket to be discussed.
Only 4 judges are needed to move it forward.
SCOTUS has not agreed to hear the case. The linked file is just an application for a grant of certiori, which the court will not grant.
No comment on the merits, just observing the facts on the ground.
Also, it’s docketed as an “emergency” hearing.
Even if they lose in the end, if it moves forward for discussion it could change everything.
“… hey discovered that 387 members of Congress along with VP Mike Pence actually voted…”
So, the Senate vote was tied?
If DJT ever again resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave it will be no earlier than 1/20/2025...reagrdless of what happens in with case.
I said the same thing, but when you listen to the video and the update, it strikes me as very funny that it’s even on the docket.
The SCOTUS only reviews a few cases per year, yet they’re reviewing this one.
I keep saying this, but only 4 judges are needed to move forward where it will be discussed and in the media.
Let’s pray that they people do what is right.
I don't think a Supreme Court (or any other court) has the constitutional authority to remove an elected member from office. Article 1 Section 5 of the Constitution says that it is up to each house to expel a member, and only after a two-thirds majority vote to do so.
I know, it’s crazy, but the SCOTUS is reviewing it, just the same.
Hey, at this point, all of us here have zilch faith in the system anymore. Free and fair elections in the USA? WHAT A FRIGGIN JOKE!!!!
I take my hats off to these guys.
Doesn’t fraud vitiate everything?
That is correct. 4 judges can move it forward.
In essence, it’s a group of private citizens petitioning the court to review what we all know is true, i.e. that foreign entities influenced our elections. They attacked us.
The Supreme Court receives about 10,000 petitions for certiorari, but only hears about 80 of them. So the odds of this being heard, apart from any merits of the case, are about 1%.
I suspect THIS case has much poorer odds than that.
Congress had a sworn duty to review the complaints that were brought before them. They didn’t. This is the lawsuit.
Also, there’s been no objection to it. So, it’s before the SCOTUS.
Possibly related, the SCOTUS has ruled several times since the early 1800’s that oath to obtain US citizenship is ceremonial only and is not binding in that one can have dual citizenship and allegiance to a foreign power.
SCOTUS also ruled that the oath for citizenship would not be binding unless Congress established law to make it so.
Would these rulings apply to oath of office?
That the oath is ceremonial only?
They never investigated the complaints before them.
Only four needed? Well, everyone has a fantasy.
It would be fun if SCOTUS takes the cases.
That this story has traction tells me a lot about the psyche of the American people. We are so desperate for a shred of integrity to right the election fraud rampant in this country. We hold on to threads of hope this nation can be turned around. It’s too late. A fraud sits in the Presidential office. The Republic is over. I don’t know where we go from here, but acknowledging the reality of where we are is a start.
The question is: Did Congress follow 3 U.S.C. 15 which set the method for objections by Members of Congress to electoral votes.
Since they did, there is no court case.
That’s the point, very few cases make it this far. It’s being heard.
