    Well if you had caught MSNBC, Morning Joe He and Mika set their entire panel of regulars straight on how, when and who started the Birther nonsense and wasn't Trump ;)

    Harmless, she's thankfully in no position to pervert the constitution. Besides, she only sells out her own constituency, and they're happy as long as she's ranting about how social injustice is the reason for their personal failures. I keep her in the "amusing" column.

    If SCOTUS is stacked towards the dems they will agree with it. It is all about taking sides, not what is right.

    Never know, always remember that is what they said about Trump.

    If a stacked SCOTUS says so...then that is the law.

    Only defense is the proverbial civil war.

    No, the grunt work is done by delusional kids if your talking dems.

    Boy, who knew you could keep winning and winning the same election? Between all the protests, recounts, celebrity video campaigns and now this incoming whiff...it seems like the win never stops.

    Maybe that's what Trump meant by we'll win so much we'll get tired of winning. So far I'm not tired of it though.

    The Left is completely unhinged. If you want to win the Presidency, you'll have to win the Electoral College, which the Left was just fine with, when they were confidently predicting, on election day, a 92.4 chance of winning 340 ECV and taking over control of the US senate, while assuring each other that they were the smartest and most well informed folks in the room. Then they got trounced, again, and they have simply lost their minds.

    The whole leftist platform is about putting us down and keeping us down. Basically, this country is a powder keg, and leftist fools who do not understand the danger are figuratively standing around it, firing up their bongs.
    [​IMG]

    The Democrat Party, its Media serfs, and Social Justice Incorporated are all outraged because we uppity normals are again presuming to rule ourselves, and their agony is delightful. Less delightful is how, in the process of trying to claw their way back into power, they are incinerating the norms and rules that preserve our political order. That stuff Hillary babbled about honoring the legitimacy of elections? Yeah, no. There’s an invisible asterisk only liberals can see that explains that the norms and rules are void when liberals lose.

    So, where does this crisis end?

    We know where the leftists want it to end, with us silenced and subservient forever, toiling to pay taxes for them to redistribute to their clients as they pick at, poke at and torment us. You look at the things Trump stands for and all of them are about lifting the yoke off of us – cutting taxes, slashing regulations, guaranteeing the Second Amendment, protecting our religious liberty, and safeguarding us from terrorists and illegals. But everything liberals want, everything Hillary ran on, is about clamping the yoke ever tighter around our necks – raising taxes, issuing more regulations, disarming us, limiting our religious freedom, and putting us at risk from terrorists and alien criminals. The whole leftist platform is about putting us down and keeping us down.

    Think what they will do if they take power again.

    They are certainly not going to risk us ever being able to repeat November’s rejection. California’s decline lays out their tyrannical road map. When the Democrats took power here, they “reformed” the election laws to lock-in their party, co-opted the “nonpartisan” redistricting process, and changed the ballot initiative system to make sure we will never see another unapproved proposition. They ensured there is no way to stop illegal aliens from voting because they want illegal aliens voting.

    But even that’s not enough. The state government chose to allow its unofficial catspaws to intimidate and beat dissenters at UC Berkeley. California’s governing class wanted the thugs to prevail; it was a lesson to its opponents.

    Do you think Hillary Clinton or whatever aspiring Hugo Chavez they offer up next is going to protect us from violent leftist thugs, or encourage them? Remember how Obama weaponized agencies like the IRS against conservatives? Multiply that by a thousand. Think about the “hate speech” rules used to silence conservatives on campus; imagine them as federal law. That’s coming, just like in Europe – it’s now a crime in France to speak out against abortion. Do you imagine leftists don’t dream of doing that? Once back in power they will ensure we will never be able to challenge their rule. One man (or woman or other), one vote, one more time, then never again.

    This massive resistance campaign against everything Donald Trump has done and a lot he hasn’t done is one way. The media’s liberal advocacy and tsunami of fake news is another; the press is now just one more partisan political player campaigning to restore the establishment to power. These same liars who fantasize about Trump silencing critics will cheer as the next Democrat commandante does it for real. Remember how they said nothing when Democrats voted to repeal the First Amendment so Congress could control speech during elections?

    Sally Kohn, a CNN commentator perfectly personifies the left’s combination of utter cluelessness and utter certainty in its own moral superiority. Drawing from her bottomless well of stupidity, she recently became infamous for wish-casting about what happens from here. Her scenario starts with Step 1 (“Impeach Trump & Pence”) and ends with Step 6 (“President Hillary”), thanks to a Constitutional process she created herself by blending ignorance, fascism, and wanting.

    There’s no reason not to believe that for these seditious Democrats, the second time will be the charm.

    But this amusing idiocy highlights a much more frightening possibility. Dennis Prager has written that America is locked in a Second Civil War already, albeit a cold one. And in light of the absolute rejection by the left of any legitimacy of the grievances, the interests, or the right to participate in governing this country of the tens of millions of red Americans, it’s reasonable to wonder how this can end peacefully. You see read it on social media, you hear it whispered. Are the wounds to our body politic so deep they can’t be healed?

    A recent poll on Twitter asked what they thought of the chances of serious violence in the coming four years, and the results from 6,159 people are alarming.
    “Stop being a nut” got 10%; it should have received 95%.
    “We’ll wise up” and find a way out of this crisis, got 13%.
    “50/50 leftists may try violence” got a stunning 41%, while
    “It’s coming. Gear up” got a terrifying 36%.

    77% of the respondents fear serious violence during Trump’s first term, concerning, as political warfare is not unprecedented in history. Not just Bleeding Kansas. Consider the low-grade insurgency the American left undertook in the 1970s, with more bloodshed than most people remember, and consider how today the left has significantly more cultural, institutional and media support. The reality is that there is the potential for this to get out of control, way out of control, especially if leftist violence is met in kind. That 77% indicates that the red side is, as the left loves to say, “woke” to the threat. Thank goodness for the 2nd amendment should the civil society breakdown.

    Restraint, sanity and peace. Those are the bywords for this season. Law and order, Grand Juries, arrests, prosecution and punishment for those that criminally collude to violate the civil rights of their fellow citizens.

    Our goal in electing Donald Trump was to remove the left’s hand from our throat, we have no desire to put our hand around blue peoples’ collective windpipe. We don’t care how they live their lives, but leftists care very much how we live ours. Their goal is to lock both hands around our throat and squeeze until we submit to leftist tyranny or die.

    This crisis must culminate peacefully, with a return to the old norms and reasoned competition between ideas.

    Distributed for Conference doesn't mean much. It will probably never make it in front of a Justice. The Court gets thousands of petitions each year. They divvy them up among each Justice's law clerks. A law clerk reads the petition, and writes a memo about it and whether it should be approved or not for certiorari. The Justices then in conference review the memos. Any Justice can read the petition for themselves if they want, but typically do not. Four of the Justices have to vote to hear a case, and they accept less than 10% of them. If they don't accept the case it's automatically denied.

    The Appeals Court already ruled, “For this Court to determine that the United States has been ‘invaded’ when the political branches have made no such determination would disregard the constitutional duties that are the specific responsibility of other branches of government, and would result in the Court making an ineffective non-judicial policy decision.” Seems pretty cut and dry, we haven't been "invaded".

    Both posts above are spot on....and I cannot believe what I'm witnessing from the Democratic Party...

    The debate on CNN last night was the biggest clown show I've seen in quite awhile, it was so bad that I had to go find the Idiocracy movie to temper their complete stupidity...

    This is disconcerting on a number of different levels, not the least of which is that it has been pushed up to the Supreme Court.

    Yeah, a physical invasion doesn't count, but we're going to have the court rule on a cyber invasion? And on that basis, we're asking them to overturn the election? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe a scintilla of evidence has been provided which shows that the election results were affected in any direct way by the hacking. Indirectly, yes, if you want to say that people might have voted differently had they not known that the DNC threw Bernie Sanders under the bus, that Donna Brazile was providing Hillary Clinton with debate questions, etc. Are you saying we should have impeached Obama based on the fact that he allowed the Chinese government to hack into our government systems and steal all those personnel records? Because from my vantage point, that was far worse than the publishing of facts which nobody disputes, no matter how they were obtained.

    Well, it's both silly and worrisome.

    Exactly. The fact that they were even able to do this is seriously whacked.

    Exactly. In which case the question must be asked: how in the world did this make it up to the Supreme Court? On what legal question is a ruling to be made? I'm simply confused...

    I've never seen anything like it in 50 years of political observation and participation. The vindictiveness being shown by the Dem/Left/Prog side is just absurd but also dangerous. I was not a Trump supporter and still find lots not to like about him but if the Democrats got rid of these leaders who are hell bent of bring down this administration and put in so people who would go to him and say what CAN we work on he would welcome them with open arms. I just don't understand this total opposition and even one month in demanding he be impeached. They behave like petulant children.

    Straight out of The Onion. Only not quite as funny. Unbelievable that someone would pay the legal fees and time it takes to bring this to court.

    Sad. Demented. Bizarre!
