The Texas case seeking to disenfranchise millions of voters from PA, GA, MI & WI is an affront to our democracy and legally laughable.

Here’s a quick recap of what we wrote in response to TX our brief to SCOTUS:

(Thread)

The court should not abide this seditious abuse of the judicial process, and should send a clear and unmistakable signal that such abuse must never be replicated.

The State of Texas has now added its voice to the cacophony of bogus claims. Texas seeks to invalidate elections in four states for yielding results with which it disagrees.

Its request for this Court to exercise its original jurisdiction and then anoint Texas’s preferred candidate for President is legally indefensible and is an afront to principles of constitutional democracy.

Texas has not suffered harm simply because it dislikes the result of the election, and nothing in the text, history, or structure of the Constitution supports Texas’s view that it can dictate the manner in which four other states run their elections.

Let us be clear, Texas invites this court to overthrow the votes of the American people and choose the next president of the United States. That Faustian invitation must be firmly rejected.

Texas brings to the court only discredited allegations and conspiracy theories. Texas asks this court to contort its original jurisdiction jurisprudence in an election where millions cast ballots under extraordinary circumstances, sometimes risking their health & safety to do so
