The court did not weigh in on the merits of those claims. Rather, Supreme Court said in unsigned order on Friday that Texas “not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.”

Nah. They didn't even rule on the merits of the case.

Yeah but they shut down the lawsuit that POTUS himself called "the big one". This was it, this was the power grab. He missed, it's over.

This is a wise approach.

Simple Torture wrote: 3. Legislative Malarkey - Now that many states have certified their results and there's such a minuscule chance that a recount could change anything, the next step will be for state legislatures to officially name electors for the Electoral College. The President has openly called for legislatures to undermine the will of the people and name electors for Trump instead. If this were to happen, certainly it would end up in court--and if this were to happen, I'm sure we'd have to reset the clock. Same goes for if the certification of the results in Congress--if the GOP tries to pull anything outside of the normal process, we'll have to start thinking of the end of the election as sometime in January.

The effort is being led by Representative Mo Brooks, Republican of Alabama, a backbench conservative. Along with a group of allies in the House, he is eyeing challenges to the election results in five different states — Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Georgia and Wisconsin — where they claim varying degrees of fraud or illegal voting took place, despite certification by the voting authorities and no evidence of widespread impropriety.

“We have a superior role under the Constitution than the Supreme Court does, than any federal court judge does, than any state court judge does,” Mr. Brooks said in an interview. “What we say, goes. That’s the final verdict.”

Under rules laid out in the Constitution and the Electoral Count Act of 1887, their challenges must be submitted in writing with a senator’s signature also affixed. No Republican senator has yet stepped forward to say he or she will back such an effort, though a handful of reliable allies of Mr. Trump, including Senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Rand Paul of Kentucky, have signaled they would be open to doing so.

The president has praised Mr. Brooks on Twitter, but has thus far taken no evident interest in the strategy.

Well let's just hope the president...[doesn't] read this piece.
