Four days after @JennaEllisEsq announced "On to SCOTUS!", the Trump Campaign has not yet petitioned the Supreme Court to hear the appeal to the 3rd Circuit's denial. The Safe Harbour deadline is in just 7 days.
@JennaEllisEsq In those 7 days, the Trump Campaign has to:
1. Get SCOTUS to grant cert 2. Argue to SCOTUS that the 3rd Circuit's denial of their motion to amend should be overturned.
3. Argue their amended motion at MDPA before Brann, who's already made it clear he will toss the case for moot/standing/badness
4. Appeal to the 3rd Circuit again, who've already made it clear he will toss the case for moot/standing/badness
5. Petition SCOTUS for cert on the actual case. 6. Argue the case before SCOTUS 7. Win in the Supreme Court.
8. Win so big in the Supreme Court that the Court grants the extraordinary remedies they're seeking.
9. Do all of this in just SEVEN DAYS.
Given the timeframe, you might think that @JennaEllisEsq, Giuliani and the Trump Campaign would have petitioned the Supreme Court immediately. But🦗🦗

3 weeks ago, the idea of calling for state legislatures to ignore the election results was fringe nuttiness. Today, Trump and his lawyers are loudly demanding it.
Online Pro-Trump spaces were happy to wait for SCOTUS to "overturn" the result. As they begin to understand that won't happen, more of them are calling for a coup too.
Hey @marceelias, I think I've found a minor error in your Answer in Pearson v Kemp, because your team assumed Powell and Wood accurately represented the content of their exhibits. They didn't.
In para 13, you accept that the Complaint accurately quotes from Plaintiff's exhibit 7 when it cites Dr. Andrew Appel saying he can hack a voting machine with a screwdriver in 7 minutes. But Exhibit 7 does NOT contain this quote:
OK, let's look at Sidney Powell's "Kraken" Georgia complaint. First, like everyone else, I'm going to laugh at how the title, on the first page, misspells "District" in two different ways.
Next up: PDF metadata. The author of the PDF isn't Sidney Powell, it's Juli Haller. Who is Juli Haller?
Juli Haller, who wrote the Powell Georgia claim, is a *current* US Government employee, working for HUD in the Trump Administration.
Trump is gearing up for a 2024 run. Hard to express how disastrous this will be for the GOP. All I can think of is Ken Livingstone in 2012.
Ken Livingstone became Mayor of London in 2000 as a maverick fighting the Labour Party establishment, until they eventually adopted him as the Labour candidate in 2004.
Ken wasn't a *bad* mayor by most measures, but he appointed a lot of cronies to well-paid jobs, he sucked up to Islamists and kept picking needless fights with racist undertones against Jewish Londoners.
How ignorant of history and politics do you have to be to think that Roosevelt 100 years ago would have used the the contemporary American terms "conservative" and "liberal" in this way?
