How SCOTUS Is Dealing With Trump's Appeal Against Pennsylvania

FOX NEWS reports,
"The justices this week set a reply deadline for Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar and the other respondents named in the case of Jan. 22. The campaign had asked for the Supreme Court to order those on the other side of the litigation to respond by Wednesday and have reply briefs from the Trump campaign submitted by Thursday. It also asked the court to rule by Jan. 6. But the court did not oblige.

This means that by the time Boockvar and the others the Trump campaign is seeking to take to the Supreme Court even respond to the petition, President-elect Joe Biden will already be sworn in.

At that point, the court could simply decline to hear the case, saying it is moot or impossible for them to resolve at that point."


Good for them. This is exactly what I was telling the wife would be the way I'd handle this kind of abuse of the justice system.

Seems to me if SCOTUS would have done anything other then this they'd get who knows how many other filings in the next couple of weeks.

It appears to me SCOTUS is tired of getting played by this administration and wants out of the game.
