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.

Let’s see how they think when the Manchurian candidate packs their court.

“Trump was an outlier who got by the gatekeepers.”

You are right. Will never happen again. Came close this time as I thought they underestimated Trump support again but they had a backup plan.

“I’m not voting for reduced taxes for corporations that send American jobs to the CCP!!”

agreed, but FYI, your vote, like mine, doesn’t count anyway.

When half the barrell consists of rotting apples, do you, as apple, get out if you could? Because your not going to “unrot” those bespoiled apples.

I see no point in voting anymore. Its a joke. My next ballot will be in another country or out of the barrel of a gun. Time will tell....

I don’t think most of you are understand that Alito and Thomas were not going to rule your way either.

Read the dissent again.

Red State did a good job of finding an old case. They outlined why Alito and Thomas would likely do exactly what they did.

But they still wouldn’t have given you what you want.

Surely most of you understand that Alito and Thomas are not liberals in disguise.

Distressing but not surprising. Now it’s Trump’s move. Hopefully he has enough support high up to declare martial law.

They have standing if states break their own laws and those broken laws affect a national election.

Granted the odds of success do not look good but aren’t all the suits that Rudy has been working on still in play?

"Then we no longer have a Constitution."

Yep, it's been confirmed.

Just a loosely organized Banana Republic controlled by corporations and banks.

Thank you for your post. I felt like I was on an island at times and even had one of my posts removed for trying to state the obvious.

This had nothing to do with fraud. It was whether or not individual counties and even election districts could declare rules that were those other than the law imposed by the constitutionally mandated process, that is, through the legislature.

Other states followed the law, those 4 states did not. So therefore they did prejudice the other states.

However, the justices bailed because they were afraid. But they’re setting off the very thing they were fearing.
