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.

I guess only Dominion has standing, in this country.

I think that strategy was to make it less political (that is, the outcome didn’t have to be a Trump victory, but simply a reexamination of the voting procedures in those states and a revision of the totals to reflect that.

I guess Trump could appeal on his own, but I think they would be even less likely to take it on. It’s certainly possible that I’m wrong, and maybe that would work.

I hope the GOP and Trump still try to pursue this through the courts, but it was a pretty devastating loss, considering the number of states involved.

You may have a point on Trump not delivering some of his agenda in a far election but this was not that. This election was stolen. The Dems made up 800k votes or whatever in PA. They could have pulled another 1 million out of their nether regions if needed. The Dems knew they had the green light from the GOP to steal and they did. That fact far supersedes any other issue.

Folks, seriously, was SCOTUS telegraphing Trump what he needs to do next with this ruling...?

"OK then. From now on just cheat in elections. Cheat like there’s no tomorrow. The penalties are light and that’s only if/when they actually care to investigate.

Stuff ballot boxes

Do not report how many ballots you have until after Democrat strongholds report 100%.

Ballot harvest

Get our operatives in charge of the counting

Throw out Democrat poll watchers

Administratively cancel Democrat votes

Just win at all costs. There are no laws. It’s only about obtaining and holding power."

There it is. Ballot drop boxes so full they can't accept more ballots. Democrat poll watchers instructed they cannot work more than the 6-6 or they will not get paid.

Here's an easy one: No one may serve as a poll "instructor", "counter", "official", "judge" if they own a single penny in back taxes to the state or the Feds.

Do you agree if SCOTUS denied Biden’s election, as fraudulent as it is, would cause street riots by the left?

Well the SCOTUS is also deep state. They are doing well in government jobs. So they do not want street riots and burning down of SCOTUS building. They know Trump followers will not burn down DC. So the justices took the safe route.

They are saving their rear ends.

So voters have no standing. Electors have no standing. States have no standing. WHO THE HECK HAS STANDING?

The Deep State of course.

Forget your inalienable rights. Your legal rights now come from the Deep State.

Any other way jeopardizes the mission. Cannot allow that to happen.

> If Trump has been holding some cards waiting for this to play out he had better play them now.

My money was always on this weekend for Trump to... do something. Weekends are always best for doing something... unexpected. All legal routes exhausted, the EC meets on Monday, I can’t imagine the benefits to waiting any longer.

Something happens this weekend or it doesn’t.

he may be right. I suspect he is talking about Biden packing the court.


LOL. Why on earth would Biden need to pack the courts? Dems win near ever big case as is. No need to open that can of worms with Dems winning.

sometimes it takes one door to close
to enable another to open:

10 U.S. Code § 252 - Use of militia and armed forces
to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful
obstructions, combinations, or assemblages,
or rebellion against the authority of the United States,
make it impracticable to enforce the laws
of the United States in any State by the ordinary course
of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service
such of the militia of any State, and use such
of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce
those laws or to suppress the rebellion.
