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.

Alito says that SCOTUS can’t deny hearing cases for which it has original jurisdiction.

Can Texas reword and file again?

Or sue in federal court in Texas?
...

Sometimes the simplest solution is overlooked; perhaps you are right.

Cooler heads will prevail. 30 million people will go stealth. Actively and quietly undermining liberal interests.

THIS.

Except (should Biden be elected) I'm hoping it's more like 80 million people. Can you imagine? I figure it'll take the Left about six months to realize something's gone horribly wrong and they're up cr*p creek.

If you're close to retirement, retire. If you're working, change your status to keep as much as possible from being taken and then file for extensions. Cut out everything that's taxed as much as possible. Only buy necessities.

One of the very faint silver linings in all this is watching the Republicans become a permanent and ever-shrinking minority-to-minor party.

They killed themselves. C’est la vie. They really sucked as “champions” in every way possible.

It won’’t be that simple. They won’t let you adjust your withholding, assuming you are working anyway and they will shortly be assigning social compliance scores like the CCP and will start squeezing to deny us access to vital services if we don’t comply. Also, the Fed will just conjurer money out of thin air. The Left will not be concerned with the deficit. We will need more dramatic action (national strike?) IMO.

Yes.

They don’t need leave of court. SCOTUS has jurisdiction already. If they sued the other states in district court in Texas, the federal lower court judges would kick it up for that reason saying Constitution clearly gives SCOTUS jurisdiction.

I know, 1913 was a bad year for liberty.

Not sure really, guess I’ll need to wait for orders.

youtube: Scott Adams - Bullies chased out witnesses to the vote count.

Of course youtube can delete this any time they want. In fact they have threatened to start deleting videos that suggest there was anything wrong with the election.

“ Only buy necessities.”

One thing this rotten year was good for was learning how to reduce your economic activity to the absolute minimum. I’m sure there’s more to come yet, but reducing all economic activity to the bare minimum is the order the day for many good reasons.

I didn’t encourage it. Just made a statement followed by a question.

Actively and quietly undermining liberal interests.

They are getting the retorts gassed up and ready for us on January 21st.

The elites have been waging genocide against us ever since the Immigration Act of 1965, and will now try to finally finish us off once and for all.

The Weathermen were serious about killing 25 million of us, this is a necessary step in establishing a dictatorship, as Lenin, and Stalin, and Mao, and Paul Pot have done before.

Only buy necessities.

This is a very important point. I would add this: be very discriminating when it comes to where you spend money. Is your local pet food store run by left-wingers (mine is)? Then don't buy from them. Buy from a conservative or make your own pet food. Etc.

DO pay your taxes. It does no good to break the law, and we don't have to go down that road.

If not all the citizens of the U.S. at least the citizens of the State that violated its own laws.

Well, LBJ worked a solid plan...

A lot of TX and DC insiders wondered in 1960 why LBJ took a demotion from TX senator to VP.

They weren’t wondering in early ‘64.

But people like Jeb, love losing because he still gets invited to Hillary’s cocktail parties.

Wait until people realize Biden and his secretary of state are Chinese agents.

The only people that care already know. It wouldn’t change anything anyway. They’d just say - “at least he’s not a balless republican “
