SCOTUS shirks its responsibility when needed most

By David Singer - posted Tuesday, 19 January 2021

19. L. LIN WOOD IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFFS

20. STEVE BULLOCK, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS GOVERNOR OF MONTANA IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANTS

21. Citizens United, Citizens United Foundation, and The Presidential Coalition, LLC in Support of Plaintiff

22. 20 MEMBERS OF THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS OF THE SENATE OF PENNSYLVANIA IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANTS

23. STATE OF NEW CALIFORNIA AND NEW NEVADA STATE IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF

SCOTUS sent all these parties packing to resolve their differences elsewhere.

SCOTUS went on to deny expedited hearings on 11 January 2021 for two further Petitions filed on behalf of President Trump. They seem certain to end up in the garbage bin of history - unheard – like the Texas motion.

SCOTUS - and the rule of law – has been irreparably damaged by these three outrageous decisions.
