So, from a cursory reading, with a limited amount of understanding of the US Legal precedents, the response by the defendants appears to be telling the SCOTUS what it should do, not asking for the granting of a decision as to the merits of the application.. If i was a Justice, I would be somewhat irk'd by the upstart whiny tone of the response and the limited amount of actual, relevant, law. However, "you are so fucked" is not an appropriate, if entirely valid, response for a SCOTUS Justice to say...
"After waiting over a year to challenge Act 77, and engaging in procedural gamesmanship along the way, they come to this Court with unclean hands and ask it to disenfranchise an entire state. They make that request without any acknowledgment of the s taggering upheaval, turmoil, and acrimony it would unleash. In issuing equitable relief, this Court rightly seeks to avoid inflaming social disorder. So to say that the public interest militates against Petitioners would be a grave understatement. Their suit is nothing less than an affront to constitutional democracy. It should meet a swift and decisive end."
Fuck them all the way to hell
Edit: In other words they are more scared of the communists than they are of patriots defending the constitutions, we will see about that
If they can just get the old bitch and his handlers in the office they can use all the might of the federal government and military to suppress patriots anyway
thanks. have read the meat of it and getting worried.
ignoring all the sections regarding procedural bullshit about how and when the previous cases got filed - if SCOTUS meant to pay credence to that, they would not have allowed case to proceed.
going after merits
. Petitioners’ Federal Claims Are Not Actually Presented Here Because Act 77 is Constitutional
i've not seen the original lawsuit, and maybe i am misjudging it based on this response, but the response does not argue in favor of Governor and SoS over-riding anything.
They claim that the meat of the lawsuit it that Act 77 is unconstitutional by state law, and they provide arguments to why they think it is constitutional.
This is one of the greatest gifs I've ever seen.
It’s an oldie, but a goodie. 😂
I'm here almost daily and I've never seen it
Same
The response is saying to avoid social unrest, the SCOTUS shouldn't accept.
Antifa/BLM again is being used as a threat.
There is going to be social unrest anyway.
Either way, yes.
One scenario you’ll have a little assholes dressed in black with 55 gallon drums cut up the shields destroying businesses and stomping around.
The other way... well, they really don’t want to see the other way.
The other way is a war.
Fuck antifa Fuck blm
Fuck them to death
Doesn’t sound like an argument based in Constitutionality
Pennsylvania essentially threatened the Supreme Court of the United States. All this madness gets more surreal every day.
I love this place

This is not the court to bring political threats to when only legal arguments count.
Alito's icy stare at the counsel responsible will feed the meme monsters for years... can hardly wait...

You know what is ACTUALLY an affront to constitutional democracy?
Cheating and rigging a national election!
Fuck them.

Trump will not give up, he will use the insurrection act if it gets to that point, otherwise all his family and him will be destroyed
I hope so, it's what needs to happen. By any means necessary
LOL that gif. What's it from originally?

their argument makes sense.
How the Governor, Secretary of State, or judges overriding state law is constitutional, I have no idea.
