That actually made me lol 😂 @Repeat

Good morning... Have you all been discussing the Respondent's filing in the PA SCOTUS case this morning?

It appears to me that @CodeMonkeyZ has been breaking a lot of information to Powell and Lin before we see or hear of it. One of Powell/Wood warriors. Some crazy interesting stuff about China too

This is quite some interesting news to sip my morning coffee to... Brent Webster is a decent guy. I've known him for a while.

PA Response dismantles Congressman Kelly's case. I am guessing it won't take long for SCOTUS to dismiss it: https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/20/20A98/162968/20201208090425848_20A98%20Response%20in%20Opposition%20efile.pdf

Texas filed a lawsuit directly to SCOTUS against Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia

The Texas filing is a joke... I am guessing SCOTUS won't even acknowledge it. It's petulant and ridiculous.

How?

Dr. Corsi apparently filed directly with the Supreme Court as well..

I suspect the next few days will bring a lot of newsworthy material regardless of which way these cases go

@Huila The Texas filing is pure theater... Since when does one state have any standing to complain about how another state conducts its business... They are just hoping to drum up popular support in the Trump base to set up a case for trying to invalidate the electors in the US Legislature. "We tried to get SCOTUS to act, but they didn't have the backbone to do it, so we have to..." It's attempting to lay the groundwork justification for the coup that they think they can get away with.

Did Texas just sue the other battleground states? Is that even legal?

I'm not a constitutional scholar, but I cant imagine they have standing...

Did you read the complaint?

The Supreme Court has taken up cases in the past that are State vs State.

Well, there's one argument to be made about standing, if what another state does how it conducts its election affects all other states in the union. 🤷 It's a longshot, but not entirely invalid.

I did... Did you read the PA response that they posted this morning? It takes apart the Kelly case. And when that is decided, the TX case will be moot.

Nope, haven't made it that far, yet.

At least the PA part. The other 3 weren't even challenged in their own states.

Did they rule on the PA in SCOTUS yet?

Nothing posted yet.

Depending on where you fall on the political spectrum, you’ll read the complaints one way or the other

Some people say it’s a great claim, others say it’s useless

Meh, that state's response sounds like a bunch more of the same that got the case to SCOTUS in the first place.

This article seems to think it’s a compelling case. Others will read the filing and completely dismiss it.

When I read the Kelly complaint, I thought they made a compelling case. I didn't know how they could justify the relief they sought, but I thought it was compelling, nonetheless. Then I read the PA case and they did a masterful job of breaking it all down. I don't see how the petitioners case holds up against the response. Check it out. If I thought the response was garbage, I would say so.

I did learn a new word, though... I did not realize "militate" was a word...

@jfindley, you just advanced to level 11!

But really..there are only 9 people in this country who opinion actually matters right now.

My oldest son whines sometimes that his younger brothers get away with things he couldn't when he was their age, too...

My older children took that concept and learned to use their younger sibling to get what they want from me..

You're just a softie, then... 😉

Article III, Section II of the Constitution establishes the jurisdiction (legal ability to hear a case) of the Supreme Court. The Court has original jurisdiction (a case is tried before the Court) over certain cases, e.g., suits between two or more states and/or cases involving ambassadors and other public ministers.

I mean I would think if rules were changed to an extent to affect a federal election and impact all states such as Texas I would think that gives them standing

The argument may be that the other State(s) Violated the US Constitution and as a result Texas suffered a Harm.
