Yes, there was a stay. It was DC Circuit. And the result is that the whole thing will be decided about 2 months faster than it would have been had the stay been granted and then appealed. So ignorant to think that Trump benefits here. Sad. |
Is all this evidence coming out with book deals only? I mean, better than never? |
From the above ABC story:
“Ellis, in the memo, outlined a multi-step strategy: On Jan. 6, the day Congress was to certify the 2020 election results, Pence was to send back the electoral votes from six battleground states that Trump falsely claimed he had won. The memo said that Pence would give the states a deadline of "7pm eastern standard time on January 15th" to send back a new set of votes, according to Karl. Then, Ellis wrote, if any state legislature missed that deadline, "no electoral votes can be opened and counted from that state." Such a scenario would leave neither Biden nor Trump with a majority of votes, Ellis wrote, which would mean "Congress shall vote by state delegation" -- which, Ellis said, would in turn lead to Trump being declared the winner due to Republicans controlling the majority of state delegations with 26.“ So there it is in black and white, that the GOP was trying to overthrow the government by refusing to certify (and thus not seat) a democratically elected Democratic government. |
They are all fascists. Every one of them. |
+1. If DC Cir had denied the request for a stay and issued a quick ruling upholding the district court rulings, there would have been tremendous pressure on SCOTUS to take it up on an emergency basis and stay it in the meantime, which would have dragged the case out much longer. Staying it for a couple of weeks to have oral argument gives the DC Cir time to prepare a thorough written opinion, and gives SCOTUS more cover to decline to take it up if DC Cir affirms. |
The poster is confusing the stay from the 5th circuit re: vaccine mandates. |
Yes, this is why they tried so hard to normalize fascism and make the non existent boogeyman antifa a thing. Notice how few people argued back that being anti fascist was a good thing. |
The gall of the party which tried to actually steal an election to complain about the rightful winner stealing an election is appalling. |
