Well, it happened. The Supreme Court just rejected Texas’ lawsuit challenging the election.
This was it. This was the last hope. What’s next? What do we do now? Because I have no idea
December 11, 2020 at 7:58 pm #200665It is a shame. They are cowards.
But, Lin Wood’s suit is on the SCOTUS docket, and it’s basically the same thing, apparently. So who knows.
Otherwise, we continue to have faith in the Constitution. We support each other and those who have not been cowards in all of this.
We sit back and watch this farcical coalition they used to stuff the ballot boxes totally collapse, and the normies who suffered from TDS quickly have buyer’s remorse as everything falls apart.
Hopefully the Senate remains in GOP control, and then we watch the tsunami of Executive Orders that have the foundation of a wet paper towel, because the SJW Progressive agenda will die in a GOP Senate.
We are Americans. Our brilliant founding fathers created a system that is capable and flexible to fix itself when damaged. We gotta maintain faith in the Constitution.
December 11, 2020 at 9:57 pm #200675The SCOTUS said this:
In a brief order, the court said Texas does not have the legal right to sue those states because it “has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.”
It did not say voter fraud did or did not take place, just that one state can’t sue another on how it conducts its elections.

The @TexasGOP is out with a statement in the wake of the Supreme Court decision, all but calling for secession:

DIXIELAND 2.0, LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOO!
December 12, 2020 at 10:22 am #200708I forgot when/where I heard it/read it, but did not someone state that they consider the constitution as a living, fluid document, that can and should be changed/altered with the times.
So this by-passing a States legislature’s constitutional right/responsibility to oversee election laws to the SJW/liberal judges to decide how it is to be run.

You are talking about the basic ideological divide when it comes to the U.S. Constitution. There are the Originalists who believe the Constitution is untouchable and is timeless and does not need to change. The common term related to this is Original Intent. They are usually conservatives.
Then you have the liberal left who do believe the Constitution must constantly change with the times, because they believe the Founders were fallible and their document was not capable of handling modern “evolved” points of view.
December 12, 2020 at 4:19 pm #200739I think they had a good idea of what BS might happen, and now we are seeing some of that BS happening.
Having amendments is one thing. But to completely ignore it because it is in your way… well Too Bad Buttercup!
Create an amendment, have it debated and voting on, etc, BEFORE you decide to do it anyway.
Otherwise, it is like saying “What constitution? I will do things my way anyway!”
December 14, 2020 at 9:56 am #200970That is a farce. The SCs origional mandate was to try cases between states.
The court punted cause they apparently want to be overrun by 4 new commies.
December 14, 2020 at 9:59 am #200972Legal documents do not alter their text just cause 240 years have passed.
If you want the Constitution to mean something new draft up an amendment. Remember amendments must pass with a 75% vote of both houses and then be ratified by 75% of the voting population. Good luck.
December 14, 2020 at 10:04 am #200974You just explained WHY the dems are so dead set on by-passing the whole process altogether.
And the us farce of an election 2020 has proven just that.
Rule of law-less-ness should be one of the by-lines for 2020.
