Just make the new capital somewhere other than Austin, Houston or any other lib controlled places.

Thank you for the map. It looks like Detroit, Milwaukee, Philadelphia and Atlanta versus the wholesome states in America. For the first time since the magical overnight appearance of 20 million Bribem votes, I feel some hope.

These things are happening quickly so you need to stay up to stay informed.

As of this morning Louisiana was the only state to join with Texas. By the afternoon, seven more stepped up. And I would venture a safe bet that by tomorrow many more will join in as well.

This Texas case has original jurisdiction and goes straight the SC without going through appeals from lower courts. More importantly, this case is what is called "outcome determinative" meaning when the court decides, that's it. The four states named in the complaint will have to select the electors by the legislatures themselves because the state violated their own constitution in conducting the election, which is required by the US Constitution.

This may be the case that breaks the log jam and clears the way for Trump to win his second term legally.

None of this is going to move at a snail's pace because the electors vote on Dec. 14th, next Tuesday. Time is of the essence.

I don’t think that four of them will disagree this time. My guess is 9-0 or 8-1.

The police can handle antifa if corrupt democrat mayors don’t tell them to stand down... and if corrupt democrat mayor tell the police to stand down more people will move out of democrat hellholes... And sweeter, more citizens will switch and join with Republicans...

And I am ashamed that Tennessee is not one of them. We are becoming more of a RINO-led state every day.

Antifa is a paper tiger. Without support from democrat politicians they’re finished.

That was my question too. Oklahoma needs to get their ass in gear. And Wyoming and Idaho.

Tomorrow and Thursday are the days that sides will be all the way chosen.

Does TN have a Republican governor and AG?

If so, patience... maybe tomorrow.

Wait until people find out that Trump actually won California.

You may be back in the driver seat before you know it.

This lawsuit is based on violations of the Eual Protection Clause. The issue of standing will arise. Not mentioned in the complaint is the Guarantee Clause, also known as, the Republican Form of Government Clause, Article IV, Section 4:

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Do note that that clause makes no limitation to a specific branch of government, meaning each branch has a responsibility to enforce it if a republican form of government is not present. Some of the lawsuits filed in the lower courts made reference to this clause, which was ignored. Personally, I think it is a better argument than the Equal Protection Clause argument for states to have standing to challenge the electors of another state.

This is a shot across the bow. These states won’t tolerate unconstitutional laws.

That goes for ObozoBidencare and the job-killing Green Nude Deal too. And any unconstitutional COVID crap.

IA has been stuck with the same Rat AG for 25 years straight and 37 of the last 41. With a substitute Rat for the other four. GOP owns the rest of state government but this one Rat gets more votes than Grassley. It’s never made any sense to me. I don’t know if Gov. Reynolds can join the suit without him.
