The Supreme Court on Friday rejected a lawsuit backed by President Donald Trump to overturn Joe Biden’s election victory, ending a desperate attempt to get legal issues rejected by state and federal judges before the nation’s highest court.
The Electoral College votes on Monday, so that was the last gasp of the Confederation of Seditious Bastards.
Sepaking of sedition, there is an argument that the 126 congressmen who signed onto Texas's seditious petition could be denied their seats in the House of Representative under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. I don't think that the Democrats have the balls to try this, though.

Can't wait to hear what he says about "his" Supreme Court.

Don't count on it. The seditious bastards will be gasping their way all through the Biden presidency and beyond.

So even though Fergus (read that the Federalist Society) and McConnell have appointed and confirmed over 200 judges, including more than a third of all circuit court judges, and fully one third of the supreme court, they still couldn't win one case alleging voter fraud.
That is because voter fraud is basically nonexistent in any numbers that could affect the outcome of any election beyond city council or school board in a town of less than 5K people, and as of yet, you still need evidence to prove your case in a court of law.
Fergus believed that if he could just own the judges, he could get away with anything, which just exemplifies how little he actually understands the government he is the supposed leader of.
So it's over and he lost, so what can we expect from him and his party now?
More baseless and frivolous lawsuits to send fundraising emails about, for as long as a single Pig Person has a single dollar in their bank account.
Which kind of exposes another angle of the Republican attempted takeover of the judiciary: They may not win very many, if any of these lawsuits, but their friendly judges will always allow them to file them without sanctioning them for abuse of litigation, ensuring that the gravy train will keep on rolling as long as the aforementioned Pig People keep kicking down.
So what to do? A pragmatist might suggest a Pig People de-porkification project, but we all know that'll never happen.
I suggest enacting an 80% tax on nonstandard political fundraising, along with wholesale election finance reform and publicly funded elections, but that has about as much chance of happening as the de-porkification as long as there is any Republican support required for its passage.
They are wholly devoted to the grift, and will never vote for anything that damages that gravy train.
So we have to make it stop paying, or the corruption will never stop.

Trump thinks everything is transactional; the judges he appointed owe him a favor. He must have really believed he had at least three justices in his pocket.
Now that Opus Dei, the Catholic Illuminati, has packed the court(s), don't need it (trump) anymore. They got what they wanted, the ends justify the means.
Would not surprise me if Bill Barr's now Special Prosecutor picks up where Mueller left off, impeaches (again) and/or prosecutes drumpf uck for treason, to wit collusion with Russia in her interference in the 2016 election on its behalf, and absolves the Repub party of all responsibility. Yeah, kinda' crude how they got there, but ... the ends justify the means.
Yes, "it".
The Twitterverse is recommending he take it to Judge Judy.
