  1. Why do you think they included “New Nevada” and “New California” as plaintiffs? “New California” or “Calexit” was a Russian backed effort.

    1. @Mr. Toodles fuque I own Donny dotard, just had him remove US spy planes from Europe at the low cost of 1 apartment 🤣
      He’s so cheap like many “right” wing politicians.

    1. @justino perez
      Historically when Trump supporters say someone is going to prison its basically a guarantee they’re not lol….

    1. @outdoor fun
      you weep bitter tears of failure and humiliation.

      you speak nonsense.

      any intelligent person realizes conservatives will have another chance to destroy America legally in 4 years

    2. @outdoor fun *_What Trump supporters are advocating amounts to me being able to sue you because you hit SOMEONE ELSE with your vehicle._* And it is amazing that you don’t get that.

      If Trump had had JUST ONE legitimate ‘Fraud’ case, he would have won that case. In any State in the Union it was filed. But his lawyers brought forth 54 or so cases and NONE accused FRAUD (by his lawyers own admission in front of Democratic and/or Republican judges). And he only won one of those cases which only moved ‘Poll Watchers’ closer to the tables where the votes were being counted. To bring a case before ANY court you must be the AGGREVED person or persons. Texas simply had no STANDING (not the ‘aggrieved’) and notice that the suit only REPEATED the claims of the cases Trump lost in lower courts with no introduction of NEW evidence to substantiate them. I’m no lawyer but I believe that even a ‘Novice’ can understand what happened.

  2. If anything, all the AGs and representatives, who backed up this ridiculous farce just displayed their utter contempt for the people and the very concept of democracy itself. They are traitors to democracy.

  3. *_Sedition_* is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that tends toward rebellion against the established order.

    1. Yes; keep in mind they were not protesting, they are calling for outright rebellion against a very basic tenet of our Republic.

    2. @XD Interactive, tough talk, kid. Now back up your words! Where’s the evidence? Because we’ve seen absolutely No evidence whatsoever. Just conspiracies based on conjecture. I literally can claim to be FDR and that I’m from another planet with super powers and my wife Marilyn Monroe signed an affidavit to prove it. Would you believe me? I mean I am a stranger on the internet claiming this just like your conspiracies.

      So either back up your talk or learn a simple form of Shut The F@&$ Up!

    3. @XD Interactive no they didnt. There was no fraud and your god chose biden. Get over it. You have no proof, no evidence, nothing at all except trumps hurt feelings. Grow up.

    4. The court case doesn’t qualify? but statements with the intent of rallying of the T rump cult to action certainly does.

    1. @Dennis O. lmao naw not to you. Why would I waste my time on a nobody who wants somebody to tell them good job? Umm… good job boy, you can regurgitate chinese propaganda. Want a cookie?

    2. @Tim Gillespie At least you’re reasonable. Y’all hate us so why make us stay in the same country? Just seems counterproductive to both of our ideologies at this point.

  4. Please PUBLISH IN NEWSPAPERS the names of these seditious traitors so the People of America can bear witness to the enemy that resides among them.

    1. @Ballstavius Deadeyes
      Ignoring evidence 🤔. When the courts have asked for the evidence the Trump ‘legal’ team has provided none and has said it has none. That is a ‘great’ start to a court case.
      The Texan AG was trying to get a pardon for his crimes, that he is being indicted for, which broke federal laws and he is scared he will spend the rest of his life in prison.

    2. @A horse with no name Well said! Their charade is a form of bait and switch done by the Trumpists to deceive their cult into sending them more money. They offer false hope, lies and above all are willing to destroy this country to get what they want.
      In front of the cameras they talk a big game, lots of inuendo, conspiracy theories and outright fraud but in court they literally show up with nothing save arrogant demands to be handed a victory they did not earn.

  5. Make sure you write there name’s down when it’s time to a renew election in their district vote them out.

    1. Voted out, impeached, recalled. They all took an oath to defend the constitution of the United States. They lied under oath.

    1. @The Spectosphere then let them go all hundred whatever of them. And they shouldn’t let the door hit them on the way out. Seditious traitors, each and every one and of course the most putrid and vile of them all is the B.O.M.B, patient zero, the Big Orange Man Baby

    2. @French blue8 all federal money outlays should be suspended to any state talking about secession…all federal jobs should be suspended…all federal pensions should be suspended…all federal facilities should be mothballed…not ONE PENNY of federal money should flow to any state talking about secession.

    3. @Gregory Marsh – Exactly.
      Let their backwatery fiefdoms support themselves…maybe Deutsche bank will loan *them* a few hundred million, like they did #45✳. 💰

    1. @Incog Neeto To the contrary, you hayseeds are free to leave. Just take Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama with you. Now you can pay your own cotton subsidies.

    2. @Chills & Bones “Y’all” already are a third world shithole. That’s why you need us to pay for your farm subsidies, Cletus. Mississippi is, in fact, poorer than many third world places.

  6. WOW I can’t believe the republicans are doing this to our country. print those name out for the world to see.
