What made you think it is scam? There are agents helping people to get genuine traveling documents and visas.

If you sure, she is a scam Artist, you wouldn’t have negotiated for her to keep 10%. Approach your bank and file an official report that, she scam your brother out 300k and give them her details.

I also believe CBN have an online like/Twitter/email to report scams to, search online for those and also report her to them.

There is also an option to involve EFCC, though they might not do anything, but just reporting to them is enough.

I wouldn’t say to involve the police or assume they will be of any help, as they will want something from you...but going to the Police Station to report it, so you get a police report is important.

Just reporting to your brother’s and CBN are enough to spook her and you will get the full 300k back.

Scammers don’t want the banking system or Government to open file in their names, because it is bad for business...all previous, current and future dirty dealings may be uncovered, so they will prefer to cut their looses with you, even if it means borrowing the money or scamming another Maga to raise the funds.

Empty rants again as usual.

The difference between women here and women over there is LAZINESS!

A woman abroad works and contributes just as equally as the man. Hence why they have grounds to expect contribution in domestic affairs from their husbands.

Unlike here in Nigeria where most wives are either unemployed, under-employed or self- employed in some petty 'business' shes hardly making any money in..
Wives here contribute so little to the financial upkeep of the household .. they think they are 'contributing' because they pay for their own sanitary pads, hair & nails lol.. they push the position of provision to a man... that is why husbands have been regarded as the 'head' for so long.

Majority of wives delegate their domestic duties to househelps, employing young girls to do their chores. So basically all they are is a decorated housewife who does nothing all day but maltreat their slaves househelps.

You can't expect equality with men in a society that you contribute little to no value too.

Your arguments are sound, however I want to correct a wrong assumption that you made.

In the Western world, your wife is equal and entitled to half of the family wealth including your 401K retirement saving, regardless if she works or lazy all day in the house.

The law believes that, it is impossible for her to contribute zero and therefore equates those contributions to half.

Even if she is a full house wife, she is entitled to half. You even have to pay more to her in the event of a divorce, if she was a full house wife.

The reason being that, the law seeks to keep the family dynamics as close to the same after divorce, so once they calculate the difference between your income and hers, which will be zero because she is a full house wife, you will be made to come up with more money in terms of spousal support, so that the income of the two homes after divorce will seem equivalent.

Hence, unless you are super rich and don’t mind working and paying your divorce wife salary for the rest of her life, while she does nothing and you do all the work....don’t buy into the none-sense ‘full house wife’ crap, send her to school, let her work...if she is making more than you, the better, the law sees both of you as equals regardless and the burden will be lighten on you if both of you are at the same level or close income-wise.

The only exception to the above default premise of the law is, if you sign a prenup with her and specify what she is entitled to in the prenup.

senatordave1:
Na lie.you cannot outsmart the supreme court.the case has 3 weeks left so if he appeals before this week or next,the court will give judgment within two days.if he delays till the final week,the court will reject it

But the High Court put the case on hold while his appeal was pending, at least he won that.

He can continue to play that game, appeal the Appeal Court decision to the Apex Court and hope to buy a week or two.

All these are Interlocutory Appeals, so he should look at a few other Interlocutory Orders and also Appeal them.

He should appeal to the Supreme Court in a continual effort to run out the 180 days clock.

He just need to delay this to January, 2021 and the case will be struck out.

ComeAndobo:
No. Though I'm not a republican but Electoral college is one of the checks and balances needed.

Imagine we have electoral college in Nigeria. Kaduna, Kano and katsina will have a fixed number of electoral college votes even if they continue to use under age kids and encouraging overpopulation dey born like rabbit.

With popular votes, the Northern political house will continue. That's their strategy. Popular votes.

Infact Maybe local government can be our own electoral college. Lagos has 37. Katsina has 34. Make we dey count am like that.

Each State’s Electoral College vote is not fixed, they are subject to change every ten year based on the censor counts.

The censor was done this year, 2020 in the US...next year each State’s Electoral College vote will change....some States will lose a few votes, while others will gain and some will remain the same depending if their population grew, remain the same or reduced relative to other States.

PureMe01:
there was no alternate electors in 2016 to contest the count....like I said initially,I needed a neural explanation,not an obvious partial personal opinion

There no alternate electors this time around either. The GOP Electors selected in PA and GA are just side show by the Republicans.

By State laws, the Governor of the State certified each Elector and he is the one that will forward the certified Electors and their votes to the joint session of Congress and those are the Electors that will be counted.

The GOP Electors are just like lawmakers who did not take the oath of office, but have started voting on legislation, it is null and void. They were not certified by the Governor of those States and by law, they are not Electors.

Pence will just be an empire, there are clear rules and regulations that will be followed and none of them gave Pence the power to refuse any vote.

For a dispute to be heard, one Senator and one congressman must object, then both Houses will vote by simple majority, if both House didn’t vote Yes, the dispute will be tossed and those votes counted.

Disputes can only be heard against States who were not able to certify their results by Dec 8. However PA, MI, GA, AZ, NV certified theirs before that date and the Safe Harbor Act mandate the joint session of Congress to accept those results as-is with no dispute whatsoever.

PureMe01:
I could be wrong...pls I don't need typical Biden thugs or over zealous Trump supporters to lay emphasis...
I need an impartial explanation on this...a U.S friend sent me this.

Your friend is wrong, he is partially describing what would happen if there is discrepancy from the state, or when there is no clear winner from the state. where a particular state did not certify any Elector or if there were multiple certifications eg first certification was done, then there was a recount which flip the votes and the state have to certify the other person.

Though he is wrong on stating that Pence have the powers to reject any vote if there are no clear winner or multiple certifications from state. He is right that the state delegation is congress will settle the score in such situations. However, that is not the case this time, there are clear winners who had been certified from the State with zero legal challenges that successful, forget all Trump is saying on social media, they are just noise.

In those cases, congress have to settle the score using the method you have highlighted. In the current case, there are no discrepancies, the states and electors have voted for Biden.

Pence is just officiating the joint session of Congress, that position does not empower him to lord it over anyone. He is just a referee in a game that have lay down rules and regulations. He does not have the power to make new rules and pick his ball and go home. He also have no power to refuse to follow rules, laws and regulations...he will be called to order.

I have written another lengthy piece of how the process will play out during the joint session of Congress, see the link below.

Trump is delusional but unfortunately, he's the hero of some people like Righteousness09.

Dem @ Righteousness09?

Few months ago they were everywhere upandan saying that Don the Con aka serial Adultery that grab them by the pvssy is the last Trump of God spoke of in Revelation.

BTW, I have not seen much of him lately, he must have been raptured or preparing for it any day now, since his last Trump of God has been fired by the American people.

[quote author=Earthkumy post=97074499][/quote]Republican Electors casting Electoral College votes in PA and GA are just like a group of Nigerian Law makers voting for a piece of legislation, without first meeting the requirements to take the oath of office and also before taking the oath of office.

Based on the law, the Governor certified Electors before they can vote....as far as PA and GA, the Governor only certified Democrats Electors and not GOP’s....so, their votes are worthless.

Openbusiness:
Mr man confirmation of Electoral College votes is the EXCLUSIVE responsibility of Congress. No Governor or Secretary of State can certify anything, stop saying rubbish you don't know about. Until the Electoral Votes are counted in Congress and the Senate President announces the winner, nothing is official yet. All the voting taking place today will be compiled and forwarded to Congress, not any Governor.

The tabulation in the joint session of Congress next month is just a formality.

Congress will accept Electoral Votes sent in by each State as voted today, for a dispute to occur; one member from the House and another from the Senate will have to raised an objection to the results, so far no member of the Senate have said they will raise such objection; however, many members of the House have indicated that they will raise an objection.

If that happens, both Houses will vote by simple majority to table the objection and both Houses must vote YES....GOP have a slim majority in the Senate, only three Senators need to vote otherwise to defeat the motion in the Senate.

However, the Democrats control the House, so they will vote against the objection, so the Senate votes is irrelevant and of zero impact. Any and all objections will be defeated once the House votes No.

With that, the Joint session of Congress will rectify those results. Also note that, the above objection cannot be implemented against PA, GA, MI, AZ & NV because by the operation of the Safe Harbor Act passed by congress, those States certified their results on or before December 8th and as a result of that, Congress can not challenge them. If anyone in the joint session challenges those results, any other person there will raise a point of order and point to the law and the challenge will be ruled out of order and those votes will be tabulated.

I think it is only WI among the disputed States that did not meet the Safe Harbor deadline, so their results can be challenged, once the House returned a No vote against that challenger, WI will also be tabulated....Biden will still win without WI, but, the joint session will give him WI, because the GOP does not have the votes in each House to sustain any objection that will result in Biden losing a single Elector....ie 1, and Biden have 306 Electors and only need 270 to win.

The Election ended on Nov 3rd and it has been over since then. Whoever is telling you that anything will result in a different outcome, you will be naive to believe them...It will be more plausible for me to sell the Brooklyn Bridge to you and you own all its rights, access and privileges than for Trump to be successful at getting a single Electoral votes from Biden’s current total. This show is over, those hanging behind are just helping to clean and dress up Trump’ temper tantrum.

Current standing.....and...CA have not cast their huge junk of 55 votes for Biden, and Biden only need 270 to win, so do the maths....How market Trumpers?

macjireh:
by tomorrow una eyes go clear

Pence is just a Chair of the joint session, he does not have any power to lord it over anyone in that joint session...He will be over ruled...

The worst cast scenario that, would happen is, if there is a dispute...both Houses will adjoin and vote...if both Houses vote not to accept a particular result, then that stands....but if one House votes No, the disputed results will be accepted....I am very sure that the Senate will never vote to not accept those results, the GOP have a very narrow majority there....and I am very positive that the House will vote to accept, making what the Senate votes irrelevant and of zero impact.

Trumpers, do not give up...there is still hope, go to the prayer mount now...pray for faithless electors...Also remember to send your donations to Trump, borrow money, if you do not have...you know what to do

Current Electoral Votes...


Some insight....note that, all the battleground states and where all those court cases were have already voted for Biden i.e. WI, PA, NV, MI, PA, GA, etc...so Biden is t 229 now, and need just 41 to cross the finish line..

CA have not cast their votes yet, and it is a heavily liberal state, it has 55 votes and once that is done, it is over.....So pray that CA should cast their vote for Trump...

But....First Bank is still charging man Stamp Duty na!

Only an irredeemable delusional clown would have expected a different outcome but those with functional brain cells knew from onset that this litigation lost it pulse the very day it was filed and was just waiting for the Supreme Court to officially pronounce it dead on arrival which it rightly did by throwing it into the trash bin of history where it belongs.

Waiting for the next delusional stunts from Trump and his faithful clowns since their plan A and plan B of subverting the will of the people has been so disastrous and embellished with 56 losses at all the court's they shamelessly went to.

Don’t underestimate the Trump’s crew knacks for frivolous law suits.

I wouldn’t put it pass them to do the following next, which all will fail spectacular.

1. Since the Electoral College meets in all 50 States Capital on December 14, 2020 (Monday). I expect an emergency federal case to be filed to stop them from meeting along with another email to Trump suckers to donate more money...it goes without saying that this effect will fail as well.

2. Direct Appeal to Biden Electors to deflect and be faithless to Biden and instead vote for Trump. This also will fail, though the irony here is, I see more Trump Electors becoming faithless and voting for someone else, but not necessarily Biden...but the net effect will be that, Biden will be elected as the next President on December 14, 2020, because he will secure more than the 270 Electoral votes needed.

3. Next, the dance will go to congress in early January when they receive and tabulate the Electors vote. I pity Mike Pence, you don’t want to be Pence this period and my guess is, Pence would start avoiding Trump leading to this time, because as President of the Senate, Pence will chair this join session of congress and will be the one to put the final nail on Trump’s coffin. The poor guy have no option, even if he is a diehard Trump fan and want to topido the whole of US. Based on the safe harbor Electoral Act, all the contested battleground states except WI certified their results before the deadline, so congress is bound by law to accept them as is. If Pence or any GOP want to bring it up, a point of order be raised and be referenced to the law and those votes will be tabulated.

4. Next Swearing in drama and possible destruction of evidence at the White House and else where to cover up some ill doings.

Waiting for the Trump supporters here, to tell us what the next court their Supreme leader will be going to now....

nelsonoba:
I have observed your thought process and I can assure you that you have a huge potential to be wise and highly informed. If only you get rid of CNN and Fake news media, you will achieve that great potential in you.

The Supreme Court just dismissed the Texas case just like I rightly predicted, Mr. Wise One!

“The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution,” the Supreme Court’s order reads.

“Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.”

She looks like a good girl and they are hard to find.

Your cousin will even have harder time now that he have seen some measure of success to meet a girl that would truly love him for who he is and not for his success, money or abroad based status, either with a foreign based girl or 9ja.

The Bible say, we should not forget the days of our little beginnings. It is hard to find a soulmate out there and a sincere love.

I would say he should wify her before leaving, this way he will have some level of commitment while away, same with her.

Yes, while apart both of them will face serious temptations, but the commitment will serve as an opposing force, but no one truly know how long that force will hold, but it will be there.

Even if one or both of them went astray, they will have something that may pull them back together.

He should not leave that girl, he may regret it in future. Money, fame and success can not buy or get you a good wife.

Zeeknow3245:
More often than NOT the swing states winners will win the Elections. Electoral College is another game. The Repubs will do in their power how to force their Electors alongside Biden's own. Although certified, the Electoral votes doesn't automatically go to him. I bet I will see lots of faithless Electors. Las Las Biden will win

There not that much faithless electors though and these die-hard party faithfuls selected by the party/campaigns themselves...eg Hillary, congressmen, etc are electors, hence its hard to see many faithless electors.

Also, in many instances where there have been faithless electors, they don’t usually cast their votes to the other guy, only in 1756 has a faithless elector cast their vote for the other guy, most faithless electors cast their vote for other party leaders eg in 2016, many Gaithersburg electors voted for Sanders.

Also, the loosing candidate usual get the highest numbers of faithless electors,because they know that, their actions would not affect the outcomes of the election.

Openbusiness:
I'm just expressing an opinion and it is NOT BINDING, you are expressing yours and it is NOT BINDING either. But The SCOTUS will express their own tomorrow and it will be BINDING. So let's just wait till tomorrow for the people that have the power to DECIDE.

Fair enough!

Let’s sit back and watch the whole drama unfold, it will be one big lesson for the history books and for America democracy.

Openbusiness:
The fact that Nairaland mods always rush to push all pro-Biden news to front page and push anti-Trump news to front page BUT will not push any pro-Trump news to front page clearly shows that you guys are very biased and not politically neutral.

But it DOESN'T MATTER anyway. As of today, about 10 States and counting have joined the State of Texas in filing a lawsuit against the 4 Swing States and the application has been accepted into the SCOTUS docket, and there will be a hearing on it tomorrow. This is FEDERAL level Supreme Court ohh, you know the SCOTUS itself where you have 9 Supreme Court justices with a 6 Right - 3 Left configuration, and 3 out of the 6 were appointed by Trump. And the SCOTUS already ruled on something similar in the Foster Vs Love 1997 Case. The SCOTUS will surely affirm on the irregularities that violates the US Constitution. It will be so easy for Trump to win at the SCOTUS. Aswea he go shock una Trump haters by tomorrow
https://www.loc.gov/item/usrep522067/

You guys are grabbing at strews and chasing a loosing cause...

The Election day argument in Foster vs Love has already been litigated by the Supreme Court in this Election cycle and the Court decided against the Republican who brought the argument.

The US Supreme Court in reference to the Nov 3, 2020 Election clearly stated that, what they meant by "Election Day" in Foster vs Love is the act of casting of ballot and it totally excludes the act of counting those ballots or canvassing those ballots, which can take days or even weeks. The Supreme Court conclude that, PA is in compliance with Foster vs Love because they concluded the Act of balloting on November 3, despite the fact that canvassing of ballots took days and weeks....see relevant excepts from that order...

It amazes me, what some Nigerians here are writing online and thinking would happen in America....

If you sit back and think these things through, the Nigeria Supreme Court will never even do that!

Can you imagine Bayelsa State, taking Sokoto State to the Nigeria Supreme Court and asking the Supreme to invalidate the Votes for Buhari in Sokoto State, Kano State, Zamfara State & Borno State that:

1. There were wild irregularities, that there were pictures of under age people voting in those States.
2. That Voter registration card distribution in those Northern States were near 100%, but those in Bayelsa State were mere 60%.
3. That some wards in those States did not follow Federal laws in closing polls places by 8pm.
4. That some wards in those States did not allow PDP Election observers.
5. That there were violence in Beyelsa State that hinder lots of voters from voting for Jonathan, giving undue advantage to the Northern States that didn't experience much Election interruptions.
6. That Election reader machine were malfunctioning on a large scale in Bayelsa and switching votes or making it difficult for some voters to cast their votes, but was working smoothly in the Northern States.
7. That many voters in Bayelsa arrived at the poll booths and did not find their names on the polls books, though were allowed to vote with probational ballots, which are inferior because they are counted last.
8. That many warehouses housing Election materials were burnt down before Election day in Bayelsa, not were in tact in these North States.
9. That thugs in Bayelsa State snatched many Election materials and even killed many INEC staff, but nothing of such happened in the Northern States.
e.t.c.....add your own.

Relief Sort from the Supreme Court:
1. As a result of the above, we are not asking the Supreme for a revote in Bayelsa State.
2. We are not asking the Supreme Court to order INEC to ensure all voters who could not vote in Bayelsa be given the opportunity to cast their votes.
3. Rather, we are asking that; All the votes cast in these four Northern States be canceled, invalidated and removed totally from the Election records.
4. That our candidate who lost in these Northern State be declared a winner in these States.
5. That our candidate, who lost Nationally by more than 7 million votes, therefore be declared the winner of the Presidential Election.
6. That INEC be ordered to give our candidate Goodluck Ebere Jonathan a return certificate.

Then Edo State, Delta State, Ebonyi State, Anambra State, Akwa Ibom State, Rivers State, Ekiti State, Taraba State, etc who all voted for PDP and Goodluck Jonathan filed amicus briefs with the Supreme Court siding with Bayelsa and asking the Court to invalidate the Election results in those Northern States and award the Election in favor of Mr. Goodluck Jonathan!

Take a wild guess, you think the Nigeria Supreme will say...o boy! 'We hereby invalidate those Election results and award the Election to Jonathan & PDP"?

Yes most people are partisan, which is good....but lets use common sense please.

If you read the court filings and transcripts of these Republican cases, they are not alleging fraud in Court, because the lawyers know they do not have prove and that they will loose their license to practice law.

They are only alleging irregularities and State rules changes that happens in every single election cycle, which they believed made it possible for more Democrats to vote in this Election and disadvantaged Republicans and made them to vote less.

Now it is okay to alleged that, your side because of some rule changes did not vote as much as they would have...but you can't ask the court as a remedy to throw away other people's vote because your side did not vote, that is not a remedy...a proper remedy is for you to ask the court to allow your people to vote just like the other side....but that remedy is moot because the election is over and Trump told his voters not to vote by mail!

demmymoney:
Well there are clearly a lot of evidences relating to massive election fraud in some stronghold democrat counties

Can you please present these evidences, I truly would love to see them and read them.

Do you even know that, it is only on TV and in social media that, the GOP are claiming fraud? Have you taken time to read their court filings and court transcripts? In court they are not claiming any fraud....look at an exchange between a judge and the GOP lawyers in court:

Please research these cases, also google the quotes, they came directly from GOP and Trump lawyers in Court:

In Arizona Maricopa County Case:

“We are not alleging fraud in this lawsuit. We are not alleging anyone stealing the election,” Kory Langhofer, a Trump campaign attorney, said at the start of the hearing.

The Judge dismissed the case!


In Pennsylvania Montgomery County, Case:
Below is an exchange between Judge Richard Haaz, a Republican Appointee to the Court and Mr. Goldstein a Republican Lawyer, representing Trump...

THE COURT: I understand. I am asking you a specific question, and I am looking for a specific answer. Are you claiming that there is any fraud in connection with these 592 disputed ballots?

GOLDSTEIN: To my knowledge at present, no.

THE COURT: Are you claiming that there is any undue or improper influence upon the elector with respect to these 592 ballots?

GOLDSTEIN: To my knowledge at present, no.


The Judge dismissed the case!

In Chatham County, Michigan:
The Trump campaign cited supposed evidence that 53 late ballots may have been predated so they could be counted. Except two witnesses they called acknowledged under oath that they didn’t know whether the ballots were received after the deadline. And two others for the local board of elections testified that they were, in fact, received on time....

The Judge dismissed the case!

The icing on the cake is Trump own personal man, the US Attorney General William Barr, He went against the Department of Justice more 100 years guideline and instructed the DOJ to investigate 'fraud' many career DOJ laywers resigned because of that, because it is against the department's policy to get into politics.....but after that violation and Barr's fraud investigation, he came back with nothing, he said no fraud!

The 'evidence' you may be referring to were online forms that the Republican put up to ask anyone "out there" to report fraud to them...o boy, they got many responses and and "affidavits" from many people and even online bots...this is how it went down in one of the court cases:

Arizona Case:

Judge Daniel Kiley expressed concern about the way that the Trump campaign was gathering evidence.

Judge Daniel Kiley struck from the record hundreds of declarations the Trump campaign had gathered from people who filled out an online form soliciting voter irregularities.

Mr. Langhofer, the lawyer representing Mr. Trump, said the campaign had removed any declarations it believed unreliable and had put security measures in place to prevent automated bots from filling out the form—including a measure designed to test whether a computer user is human.

COURT:
“How is that a reliable process of gathering evidence?” said Judge Kiley, later adding, “The fact that you can’t disprove what’s asserted doesn’t mean what’s asserted is in fact true.”

Guess what? The case was dismissed!

No lawyer want to jeopardize their license in court, by telling lies....so they only yell fraud! fraud! fraud! on TV and social media; but behind close doors in Court they say something else!

nelsonoba:
Are you aware that in the constitution, there is no such "safe harbour date" In the constitution, the only date mentioned is the 20th of January. The safe harbour date is just an arbitrary arrangement that has been maintained for some decades, and it is not enshrined in the constitution. Besides, the main case brought before the Supreme Court is still there, and anybody telling you it has been tossed is lying to you.

In addition to that, the case brought by the 10 states led by Texas yesterday is a bigger case than the Pennsylvania one that fake news told you has been tossed.

I guess it is the kids that showed up on the internet today, at least before disputing something online try and research it, so you could understand better.

The safe harbor date is not an “arbitrary arrangement’ it is a federal law passed by Congress .

It states that....any state which have finalized their election results and resolved “any controversy or contest” involving the appointment of the electors by six days before the Electoral College meets, those results should be treated as “conclusive” by Congress when lawmakers tabulates the Electoral College votes and should not be challenged.

Electoral College by US law: 3 US 7 will meet on December 14, 2020. SCOTUS can not change that date. SCOTUS is there not only to ensure the US constitution is followed, they are bounded by US laws and US statues.

If you go back to 2000 in the FL case, one of the reasons SCOTUS rejected A’gore request for the ballot recount was because the recount would extend beyond December 14th.

TX also violated the same principle they are suing the other states for. TX Governor made some last minute changes to how Elections were ran in TX just like they are accusing these states. He that come to equity must come with clean hands. Also, TX have no standing to sue other states on how those states should conduct their Election...Lawmakers and injured parties in those states have already sue to state court and lost, they took it to federal courts they lost.

This TX case is show-game and not worth the paper it is written on, it will be tossed on Friday. Paxton is just trying to do Trump a favor just in case he can get a free get of jail card over his three pending federal fraud cases.

SUPREME COURT PUTS TEXAS CASE ONTO ITS DOCKET AS
ELECTION DEADLINES APPROACH
by Kevin Ryan
Multiple states have begun issuing statements of support for
the lawsuit filed by Texas that seeks to stop electors from
being appointed in four states. The lawsuit — filed directly
with
the U.S. Supreme Court — alleges that election procedures
in
Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin violated the
Constitution, tainting the integrity of votes in those states
and
debasing votes in states that did not violate the
Constitution.
Realizing that several deadlines are approaching for states
to
commit electors, Texas says that the court has the power to
delay such dates, and “the only date that is mandated under
the Constitution is January 20, 2021,” referring to
inauguration
day.
The lawsuit contends that the defendants:
• Violated the Electors Clause by improperly changing their
voting procedures through judicial or executive action, NOT
through legislation.
• Violated the Equal Protection Clause by effectively allowing
different election rules and procedures in different counties
within the states.
According to the lawsuit:
“Certain officials in the Defendant States presented the
pandemic as the justification for ignoring state laws
regarding
absentee and mail-in voting. The Defendant States flooded
their citizenry with tens of millions of ballot applications and
ballots in derogation of statutory controls as to how they are
lawfully received, evaluated, and counted.
“Whether well intentioned or not, these unconstitutional acts
had the same uniform effect—they made the 2020 election
less secure in the Defendant States. Those changes are
inconsistent with relevant state laws and were made by non-
legislative entities, without any consent by the state
legislatures. The acts of these officials thus directly violated
the Constitution.
“By these unlawful acts, the Defendant States have not only
tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but their
actions have also debased the votes of citizens in Plaintiff
State and other States that remained loyal to the
Constitution.”
Texas is asking the Supreme Court for an injunction to halt
the
appointment of electors, and to allow the results to be
reviewed by state legislators, who under the Constitution
have
the power to appoint electors themselves. Republicans
control
all four state legislatures.
The court “can delay the [December 14] deadline for the
appointment of presidential electors… The only date that is
mandated under the Constitution is January 20, 2021,” the
Texas lawsuit says.
The attorneys-general of Arkansas, Alabama, and Louisiana
have issued statements of support for Texas case today.
The Supreme Court has placed the motion on the docket,
but
has yet to adjudicate.

The PA case was also put in the docket, go look it up.

TX and the other states have no case, it will be tossed, bookmark this post and come on Friday.

SCOTUS is bound by the constitution and status of the US. They don’t make laws at the SCOTUS, they only interpret them.

Anyone can file papers at the SCOTUS asking them to command rain to come out of desert and that honey should start falling from the skies.

Safe harbor date is governor by the Electoral Count Act of 1887, go look it up, you might learn a thing or two. That date have passed, it was December 8th.

US status 3 USC 7 states:

“The electors of President and Vice President of each State shall meet and give their votes on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December next following their appointment at such place in each State as the legislature of such State shall direct.”

That date is December 14th, SCOTUS does not have the power to change it, it is the law...they will interpret the law and tell you the law...but you can ask them to change it, they can’t...it is the job of Congress to make and change laws and not SCOTUS’.

they are hearing the case, you are now updating yourself on USA poll and its litigations in the court.

SUPREME COURT.⚖️ BREAKING: "Response to the motion [is] due Thursday, December 10, by 3 pm." SCOTUS issues
*deadline* to Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin & Georgia to respond to Texas lawsuit charging states with violating the U.S. Constitution with unlawful state elections.

Yes, it was the same way SCOTUS issued a deadline to PA to response by Tuesday by 9:00am to the GOP case and by the end of business the same date, the case was tossed.

The GOP case in PA even have standing and merit than another TX trying to argue that they have some type of say on how elections is Governored in another federating State.

Stay turned, the TX case will be tossed max on Friday and on Monday state electors will officially vote elect Biden.

Though after SCOTUS tossed the case on Friday, over the weekend expect Trump to start tweeting that state electors should vote for him....na! they will not and after they elect Biden on Monday...Trump will take his cries to Congress and state tweeting that, they should toss electors votes....but congress hand is tied because of the safe harbor laws, even Mike Pence who is Trump personal person and who will chair the joint session of Congress to tabulate the state electors would even be able to help him just like the 6 conservative Supreme Court judges are not able.

All these are all a ploy to keep getting donation and for Paxton the AG of TX to get noticed by Trump par adventure he can get his name into the last minute pardon list against his federal security fraud cases....it is all a shell game, you are been taken for a sucker.

Get your facts right! The court only rejected the emergency Injunctive bid, to stop certification, not the case itself. Trump's Lawyer clarified that. Besides, Texas and 9 other states have filed a new case with the Supreme Court yesterday to throw out Joe Biden's fraudulent win in Wisconson, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Georgia

The case is tossed, stopping the certification was the relief been sort, hence Justice Alito moved the time PA have to response from Wednesday to Tuesday 9am...because Wednesday 8th is the safe habit date.

Any State that certifies her election by the safe harbor date is guaranteed by federal laws to be considered as true and authentic, no questions asked....PA, GA, WI, AZ, etc have all certified their elections, so you can take it to the bank no lawsuit or dispute can undo them period!

On Monday next week Electors will meeting at each state capital in US to cast their electoral college vote for Biden, all these court cases are just side shows and are still ‘on going’ for Trump to keep getting donations.

Rushing To Judgement And Media Gaslighitng.
Guys, do not let the mainstream media gaslight you concerning
the SCOTUS case filed by some Republicans in Pennsylvania.
Note that this is separate from the one filed by Texas now
joined by other States (more on that later).
The media is now GASLIGHTING people that the SCOTUS has
thrown out the case of these Republicans. They are
desperately doing their best to dampen the spirit of
Republicans.
That is simply not true. The case is still alive and well before
SCOTUS.
Yes, the SCOTUS has DENIED a big ask made by the
Republicans to "overturn" the election result in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
The Apex Court denied the "emergency injunctive relief"
because it was too radical and would be unprecedented for a
Court to "overturn" the result of an election. But you need to
know that the substantive case is STILL PENDING before the
Court because it has not been heard on the merit.
The injunctive relief was denied by Justice Alito (and not by
the Full Court). Justice Alito denied the injunctive relief to
pave way for a determination of the case on the merit.
See photos 1 and 2 attached below.
Photo 2 is the injunctive relief denied.
In other words, for emphasis, the substantive case has not
been thrown out. Senator Ted Crus will still get to argue before
SCOTUS.
See this link to show that it is still on the Court's schedule;

%2Fdocket%2Fdocketfiles%2Fhtml%2Fpublic%2F20a98.html
Interestingly, the Republican Plaintiffs in their Appeal have
also asked the SCOTUS to ADVISE THEM ON OTHER RELIEFS
THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE TO THEM.
That general prayer or ask is what we should watch out for.
What reliefs would the SCOTUS be willing to grant if their case
succeeds on the merit?
SCOTUS could rule that the case succeeds on the merit and
then restore power to appoint Pennsylvania Electors back to
the Pennsylvania Legislature as per the US Constitution under
the Electors Clause instead of the Pennsylvania Secretary of
State.
Guys, this case is not over!
Immediately the news broke that SCOTUS has thrown out the
case in its entirety, I knew something wasn't right.
Why would SCOTUS accept to hear the case on the merit,
docket it and then dismiss it without a hearing?
It just didn't make any sense.
It didn't make sense because it never happened.
The case is still pending. The Court merely denied one radical
injunctive relief preliminarily. Period.
More information to come on the new States that joined Texas
in their lawsuit at the SCOTUS.

The one filed by TX AG who has been indicted on three federal security fraud cases is more ridiculous than this one and will be tossed.

One state in the US does not have standing in suing another state and questioning how they conductor their elections. PA Supreme Court is the Apex court in the land to interpret PA state law and they said no violation occurred period!

Moreso Paxton is using US constitutional provisions meant for US House and Senate in his filing before SCOTUS.

Plus, Paxton is alleging that the four swing States votes should be overturned and invalidated because officials other than those State lawmakers make changes to their election laws because of COVID.....but the idiot left out the fact that TX is also guilty of the same offense because the Governor of TX extended voting hours, extended ballot return days and not TX law makers.

Also, Paxton did not file any case, he is asking SCOTUS for a leave to file his case and they will summarily tell him NO SIR YOU CAN’T file this crap here.

Paxton is filing is merely an audition to Trump to get a federal pardon for his three indictments. The guy is a lawyer, and know very well that each US State is a federating unit and no other state can come in and tell them how to run things or how to elect their presidential electors.

Which one be self investment/intensive funding?

She is still misfiring and should understand that, not every rich man out there understand all these grammar.

She should replace the so-called self investment/intensive funding to something like...”I am now an Ashawo”, this way local-man will understand.
