Legal Memo Outlines Strategy for Trump to Succeed Having Supreme Court Hear Election Dispute
2020-12-27
[PJ] The Western Journal has published a legal memo written by William J. Olson & Patrick M. McSweeney that, they say, "outlines a possible legal strategy for the Trump campaign to follow in the coming weeks." The legal memo was reportedly sent to President Trump prior to it being published on The Western Journal.

The authors of the memo contend that by refusing to hear Texas v. Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court" abdicated its constitutional duty to resolve a real and substantial controversy among states that was properly brought as an original action in that Court," resulting in intense criticism that they had evaded "the most important inter-state constitutional case brought to it in many decades, if not ever."

"However," the authors say, "even in its Order dismissing the case, the Supreme Court identified how another challenge could be brought successfully — by a different plaintiff."

#8  When the SCOTUS decided to hear the case AFTER Biden is sworn into office ... what does that tell you?
it tells me that the system is hopelessly broken and needs to be fixed by the next most powerful entity we have here in the USA, actually, THE most powerful entity, the US Military.

#6  Since there is nothing for us to do but watch and prepare, I look forward with interest to see if Chief Justice Roberts will choose to advance the hearing to before January 20th, as is his responsibility.
