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.

>>> Plus Congress is not obliiged to accept electors, rule of law and all that, FWIW.

LOL - the Congress - it falls on the House when it comes to the President...got it? OK.

At some point, we will take up arms like in the RW. I just don’t know when that will be. But there will be a tipping point IMO.

"we have to ask ourselves if one state really has standing to sue over how another state runs its business." We are were the United States of America. What they did ABSOLUTELY affected Texas and the rest of the nation, of course we do. A coup is a coup.

[Jane Long]

Not enough people have enough courage to do that, I’m afraid.

[Texan]

Why He hasn’t delivered us from a Biden administration I don’t know. Sometimes we have to live through terrible times.

Look at what God's chosen people had to live through, the holocaust. Maybe He plans to put us through a "refiner's fire".

How about help to get Republican Senators elected in Georgia?

I've got news for you. Without Trump the Republican party is effing dead on the floor. Just exactly like they were prior to the Trump era. Trump was the only thing that stopped H. Clinton from occupying the White House.

No Trump and the Republican party is done. But don't believe me, just watch and see what happens if they finally succeed in overthrowing Trump comes to fruition.

Probably only the FBI cares...

But they have nothing to worry about. People here bluster, but there’s really nothing within their power to do about this.

I honestly don’t know what we’re going to do, but I’d suggest that a tiny but effective thing could be resisting the leftist mask and shut down orders. If every business simply says F* off and opens up, what are they going to do?

Just don’t obey.

Enjoy your 25 member court.

Roberts can brief CNN everyday on how his new goof ball team backs Joe Biden’s desire to make China a State.

>>Everyone needs to hurry and move to FL....before they secede and don't let all of us in.<<

I think I'll take my chances here in Texas. We used to be our own country...The Republic of Texas. If any state is successful in secession...it'll be Texas.

We have the 10th largest economy in the world. Oil/Gas, petrochemical, ocean access with two huge ports, tourism, trade, seafood, cattle, massive stretches of fertile farmland.

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.
....

I’m asking a serious question...I agree with you, but HOW DOES HE DO THIS? Unless he has had it planned with military leaders behind closed, lead doors before all this occurred...like, 20 yrs ago?

[Old Student]

Exactly, and where does the notion of standing derive from anyway.

I thought the Texas lawyers explained it quite well in the brief I found here at FR. I'm not usually one who will read a legal pleading through, but this was well written, clean, clear, and simple.

Link to the actual pleading after the first paragraph of the above link.

Congress?! OUR Congress?! Ha!

[Mr. Jeeves]

#2 is possible, but Trump has now done the following:

- Given state election officials a chance to do the right thing - and they didn't.
- Given state courts a chance to do the right thing - and they didn't.
- Given state representatives a chance to do the right thing - and they didn't.
- Given the Federal courts a chance to do the right thing - and they didn't.

So at this point, he has several options:

1) Declare martial law based on intelligence information and a China war status (I consider this very unlikely.)

2) Concede and start a daily declassification dump of teh Deep State's crimes all the way back to JFK..

3) Resign immediately, accept a pardon from Pence, and have his jet ready to fly to the Caymans - one step ahead of SDNY.

Probably simply a continuation of the script ....?

I know we’ll all be watching Bannon tomorrow morning.

How do you win a crooked poker game?

I don’t see how changing players will get it done...
