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.

Yes.

All elections of any consequence will be stolen/rigged for the democrat candidate.

Without any fear of prosecution, much less being overturned.

It’s the Supreme Court that has no standing in this. Time for executive action and a House vote by state delegation as per the Constitution

You are not chained with them. You don’t even have to fight. Just split. They don’t want to be saved.

I agree with you on that.

God has drawn the line in the sand again and again and people have chosen their side.

Those who want to be saved will be.

Everyone else is going further and further from God as evidenced by the irrational hatred of everything that is right and just.

I hardly think that if we were a Godly people we would have normalized abortion.

It’s back to the PA et. al. supremes to deny and then approach the Supreme Court WITH standing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, I guess PA is the only battleground state where Trump (in the form of Rudy’s team) hasn’t filed a suit yet. The PA congressman who filed one was shot down by SCOTUS in a one sentence dismissal written by Alito. But maybe it’s conceivable there’s a path there if Trump uses the right reasoning. I’m not seeing anyone else mentioning this as a possibility though.

Just keep repeating “Biden did not get 80 million votes”

Live not by lies.

Just an observation: The two dissenters who wanted to hear the Texas lawsuit were SCOTUS judges appointed in the Bush administrations: Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

None of the three Trump appointees wanted to hear the case, not even Amy Coney Barrett.

But "God bless PDJT for keeping his campaign pledge to give us Scalia-like originalist judges and cementing a conservative majority for decades" and "Thanks for nothing, George".... right???

The only way to beat them at the ballot box now is to cheat more than them.

There's another way. They can't survive without your money. They don't make any themselves. Stop supporting them.

The enemy within moves so silently and swiftly. People who would never dream of trading in dishonesty and perfidy end up looking like naive dupes once the deed is done.

"There is no lower court that may hear a case of State vs State."

I think the Supremes decided this really wasn't a state vs. state case. This was an outside state noting that what happened within another state was unconstitutional.

Personally I believe every citizen of the US should have standing to bring a case against every state that ran its elections unconstitutionally, but unfortunately it appears that you only have standing if someone has caused you to lose money. Truly sad.

No originalist would vote to hear any of these cases.

There are no Federal constitutional issues involved in these cases.

There’s no way in Hell that I’m ever voting again. Of course, it’s not as if we will be allowed to vote.

We are officially a one party, communist hellhole.

I’m removing my US flags from my yard because I no longer consider myself an American. I want NOTHING to do with the Demonrat subhumans. Biden will never be my President.

The US needs to break up into two countries. That’s the only answer.

Agreed. I’m still processing this. There are things we aren’t thinking about, but no one lands softly.

Sure.

If He can forgive 1 person everything they’ve done,

He can forgive an entire country full of people for what they’ve done.

In fact He already has through the Cross. Everyone just needs to sincerely ask for it, which also means they admit/know they’ve done wrong and understand they need His forgiveness.

This is why some are saved and many are not. We are all sinners, but many are both sinner and saint at the same time.

Texas had no standing which is why cert was denied.

How does Texas not have standing?

Seems like you are just repeating a slogan.

But since you are so sure of your opinion, please enlighten me?

This is going to require some serious sacrifices on the part of conservatives. We MUST starve the beast.

It's that simple. Money. If enough people deprive them of it, the Deep State and its enablers won't last two weeks.
