Voter suppression at any cost is their aim.
what do you think the chances of any employees caught doing illegalities getting thrown under the "bus". It reminds me of good ole Hogans Heroes, forget the big german mans name, but famous for that line "I know nothing, NOTHING"
It seems to me that the PA Republicans, like most Republicans, want to have their cake and eat it too. I've lived in PA all my life and I can honestly say this is the first time I'm actually nervous about living here
The SCOTUS, really the whole judiciary, will soon be irrelevant as a branch of government. You gave control to a President that hates our country and institutions and gave him a pass to burn it all down.
The Republicans in Congress don't seem to realize they are giving up their power to control the money of the government either. Congress will be just as irrelevant.
There’s so little most of can do but this act of defiance could help. Please tell Americans to not pay taxes to elon’s government. Just like the billionaires.
Arrest the President, Musk, and all who are complicit. The time for talking is over. We, the People, must demand this en masse. Flood every platform to reach those who can make arrests. #arrestthepresident
The corpse of the deceased Republican Party, Republican zombie fhkn rises to whine about a court decision already decided, & finished. The stench coming from the deceased #RepublicanParty, their crypt & zombie body "won" the Election. But cannot be happy, but must continue #cheating to "be popular"?
The GOP has become the fascist hateful cult. They know if we are fair they can lose.
I accepted the lose in November but watching Trump and his Elon hackers I am now left wondering?
Did Elon Musk, who purchased the USA from despot Trump for $300 million, use his DOGE team of junior tech bros—Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, Ethan Shaotran—to rig voting machines in swing states for Trump, as Trump said. Investigate the DOGE team!
I like how they want States to control stuff until it doesn’t help them. Then and only then do they go whine for the Federal Government to help them out.

Greg Palast has been on the Thom Hartmann program saying his research, using government numbers, showed millions of ballots were thrown out for any number of reasons, even after people were given provisional ballots that were also thrown out.
More RNC attempts at voter suppression. It will never end. That said, doesn’t this RNC action contradict Trump’s statement about never needing to vote again? Why bother suppressing future votes if there aren’t going to be any?
If you have to suppress votes to win, you’re not a political party—you’re a desperate scam. The RNC knows they can’t win fairly, so they cheat in broad daylight. This isn’t democracy. It’s a power grab
Why is Musk so pissed his tech bois got named? Because they hacked the voting machines & they can be pressured to talk. That's why he & trump are protecting them. Trump said today they work from the White House.
What?!!! It's usually the government's fault provisional ballots are even required. Change of address wrong - need a provisional ballot. Voting place incorrect - need a provisional ballot. I could go on & on but you get the picture.
Hopefully they will turn this one down, like they've turned down every other one that Republicans have tried to bring that tried to use the "independent state legislature" theory. This is I think the third or fourth one to try and make it to the supreme court
What they mean by "independent" is independent of the same Constitution that establishes the legislature. In other words, unconstitutional and illegitimate.

They can’t win if they don’t cheat or steal.
Isn't that pretty much what they're arguing?
Thank you Justice Roberts!

As a certain Dictator told Trump, its not who votes for you but how you count the votes, words to that effect.
No DOJ
He’ll defy the first Court judgment and then…
NO CHECKS & BALANCES

I simply don’t have any faith they’ll follow the law / do the right thing.
it's a 1 in a 35 billion chance for the same margins to be won by Trump in all seven battleground states…
I don't think we even have a chance anymore
