OAN was talking this morning that Legislatures in those states were trying to figure out if they could file as Friends of the Court.

Does the AG have the power to sue the SoS? That is what your question would be about. I assume (but admit I don't know) the SoS is not immune to being charged by the AG.

Ohhh man wouldn't that be a hoot.

Also, why is Guam in there exactly? It's not a state.

Individual legislators, or the legislature, can definitely sue an executive office for violating the roles of their branch of government. The AG works for the Governor and is unlikely to take a position against the executive. A good AG might resign, though.

I messaged the shitbag anyway. Iowa's a red state, he'd better do the right thing if he wants to keep his job.

I remember reading a response someone got from the Iowa AG and it was (I'm paraphrasing here):

"Cram it with walnuts, ugly!"

In theory can Guam and American Samoa join states in a lawsuit? I know they are our territories but I thought they didnt have any of our legal rights until they submit to statehood
