SCOTUS rejects Texas lawsuit hoping to overturn election

Supreme Court rejects lawsuit from Texas and Trump to overturn the election
The Supreme Court acted with unusual speed to reject a bid from Texas’ attorney general— supported by President Trump — to block the ballots of millions of voters in battleground states that went in favor of President-elect Joe Biden.

The court’s move to dismiss the challenge is the strongest indication yet, that Trump has no chance of overturning election results in court that even the justices who he placed on the Supreme Court have no interest in allowing his desperate legal bids to continue.

This is a blow to those that would derail democracy.
I guess Trump’s Supreme Court is part of the ‘Deep State.’

Thanks, we needed yet another thread about this.

"The court voted 7-2 to dismiss the case. Justice Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito said they would have heard the case - but that they would have refused to overturn the election result effectively making the result 9-0. "

Well said! (y)
 
So even the Trump appointed judges saw this as a steaming pile of crap. The seditious coup against democracy dies an embarrassing death.

And sadly no guilty will pay a price for it.

That sound you hear is 70 million trump supporters moving the goal post from "The Supreme Court will decide this" to "This will be decided by the Electoral College on December 14."

After December 14 I can only assume it will change to "This will be decided by armed patriots" or something.

Limbaugh: US ‘trending toward secession’ — and ‘peaceful coexistence’ between red and blue states is impossible

During his long career in talk radio, Rush Limbaugh has thrived on us-versus-them rhetoric — claiming that that liberals and progressives have a viewpoint that is diametrically opposed to true Americanism. And during his December 9 broadcast, the far-right radio host argued that the divisions...

It’s not an issue. It’s over. Trump lost. Biden is your president.
 
Anyone who is surprised by this, or thinks that SCOTUS was wrong to do this, is either a moron or a fascist.
