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.

>>> So at this point, he has several options:

Martial law is a LAST resort ONLY if he can back up the insurrection with proof

The other 2 options you gave were to give up.... and we are not there yet.

SCOTUS did not throw out the other cases from these swing states... just the state vs state case.

SCOTUS can still redeem itself.

These legislatures still have a chance to redeem themselves as well.

Just wondering if the legislatures of these states can pick the electors they want?

May as well start that third party now since republicans will
never win another election.

Well what makes you think a 3rd party can win. Who controls
the machines wins the elections it seems.

It’s over. Trump got beat by Biden fair and square. Numerous top Repub officials (including AG Barr) have said as much.

Romney, Collins and Kasich are not top Republican officials...

Only if one candidate doesn’t get 270 votes. Would need at least 36 votes to switch from Biden to Trump. So far there is no indication that any state legislature is going to appoint its own electors. A few legislators here and there might introduce bills but they won’t go anywhere.

Don’t start a MAGA party.
Rather, kick out all the RINOs from the Republican party.

GA, hold your nose and get out to vote to save the Senate.

Recall governors and Secretaries of State, starting with Kemp, Rat-boy, and Ducey.

Primary every RINO in the states in 2022 who did not stand up for Trump.
...
I don’t understand how you don’t get it...if all elections are now legal to commit fraud in, how does, “primarying” work?

If you think that the Democrats will allow another election that they won't be able to rig to ensure that they are the only ones that can win, you are only deluding your self.

If you are a gun owner, forget about it anyway because once Kamla Harris gets her hands on the reins of power, she is coming after you full speed ahead. You won't be around. You will either be in prison or dead. As will I.

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

The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.

Somewhere in the US Constitution

the country is not socialist, some leaders are and forcing their will, but the country, the people in large majority are not - how ever many legal votes Trump Got and likely more then that number of people do not want socialism.

“My guess is that the GOP will be allowed to win both U.S. Senate seats in Georgia.”

I used to think that but why weren’t we allowed to keep the AZ seat? Also, can you trust the Democrats to keep their word?

If all states which joined Texas in the SCOTUS suit abstained, the remaining states probably still have 270+ votes. At least 2 out of PA, MI, WI, GA & AZ need to be stopped. And none of them joined Texas.

What was all that business about the DOD raiding a server in Germany. I heard that it was debunked. But then I heard, just a couple of days ago, that it was being mentioned at one of the statehouse election fraud hearings, Arizona I think.
