By a 7-2 vote, the justices voted not to hear the case. The decision was announced at 6:35 pm Washington D.C. time.
Not all Republican lawmakers supported the complaint. Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said in a statement after Friday’s ruling that “since election night, a lot of people have been confusing voters by spinning Kenyan Birther-type, ‘Chavez rigged the election from the grave’ conspiracy theories, but every American who cares about the rule of law should take comfort that the Supreme Court — including all three of President Trump’s picks — closed the book on the nonsense.”
In the Supreme Court decision, Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, who were appointed by Republican presidents, both said they would have granted the motion to file the complaint “but would not grant other relief” because they believe the court does not have the discretion to deny the filing of a complaint that falls within the court’s jurisdiction.
NEW WORLD ORDER
ReplyDeletewho affirmed and who dissented??
ReplyDeleteAmy Coney Barret was a big mistake!
DeleteI don't think Barrett was a mistake. There is something else going on here.
DeleteYou really think Scalia would have passed on the case? I know he would have written a scathing dissent!
DeleteTHE COMMUNISTS WIN!!! We are now all fucked.

ReplyDelete"but every American who cares about the rule of law should take comfort that the Supreme Court — including all three of President Trump’s picks — closed the book on the nonsense.”"
ReplyDeleteNO THEY DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!
A no brainer. C’mon fellas, get out of your heads, it’s nice out here. The USA will endure. It’s a natural response. The pendulum swung too left with Obama with the reciprocal swing right with Trump. Think Reagan GOP not this crazy paranoid reactionist Trumpist shit. It will settle toward the middle. I’ve voted for H.W., Dole, W., McCain, Romney, but not Trump. Don’t worry, I didn’t go Democrat in either election. Don’t be the asshole kid who takes his ball and goes home.
ReplyDeleteI hate people like you a lifelong Republican who wont vote for a Republican President you are the idiot who stayed home wont even play ball!
DeleteTRUMP 2020!!
ReplyDeleteOh man...we are so doomed.
ReplyDeleteSo what is the use in voting if the rules change as they go and when caught cheating, there is no relief at all. No court, no DOJ, nothing? The big FU. I'm so disgusted and demoralized we lost the country and are now a banana 3rd world nation the whole system is corrupt plus there is no going back. No point in voting we all know they are going to lose the Georgia Senate seats.
ReplyDeleteIs Trump winning? I hope so.

Time for civil war. The day of the rope is coming.
ReplyDeleteIn a national election, the election rules should be the same, it was not. The Supreme court thought about their careers rather than the country. They will regret this decision when the left packs the courts. When a Chinese operative occupies the White House, it will develop into a hot civil war.
ReplyDeleteBen Sasse
ReplyDeleteHowever, it is Sasse's job as one of four proctors and a tutor for the U.S. House of Representative Page Program from 1996 to 1998 that has raised eyebrows in both Nebraska and Washington, DC. The House Page program, at the time of Sasse's employment, was experiencing one of its many scandals, in which members of Congress were accused of pressuring underage male House pages for sex. Sasse's time as a page proctor includes the time frame when Representative Mark Foley (R-FL) and Representative Jim Kolbe (R-AZ) were accused of molesting underage male House pages. Foley resigned his House seat in 2006 after sexually explicit instant messages he sent to current and former House pages were revealed to the media.
Sasse's principal responsibility as proctor and tutor was the welfare of the pages, a job for which he failed miserably as seen by the number of pages who came forward with stories of molestation and sexual harassment from Foley and Kolbe.
The next president's term runs from January 2020 to January 2020. If Biden and Harris are installed, we have until January 2024 to use the legal process to get rid of them.
ReplyDeleteThis cannot be solved legislatively, politically or legally........
ReplyDeleteForeign interference Trump can set aside election results!
