4 justices is all that’s needed to hear a case. If the libs want to protest and not participate, easier margin of victory for us, which is why I find that hard to believe.
Martial law is instituted when the courts don’t work. See ex parte Milligan.
“ Did this mean that martial law could never be implemented? No, the Courtsaid. The President can declare martial law when circumstances warrant it:When the civil authority cannot operate, then martial law is not onlyconstitutional, but would be necessary: "If, in foreign invasion or civil war,the courts are actually closed, and it is impossible to administer criminaljustice according to law, then, on the theatre of active military operations,where war really prevails, there is a necessity to furnish a substitute for thecivil authority, thus overthrown, to preserve the safety of the army andsociety; and as no power is left but the military, it is allowed to govern bymartial rule until the laws can have their free course.”
Agreed. They would just screw themselves.
That’s not how it works.
“Going to the house” happens through the state legislatures which are majority R. So “the house” is a win.

no- they all abstain and probably don't write a dissenting opinion. the amicus brief's already been filed; the court will hear the case. no worries

That would be dumb of them to do
Probably just Dems clutching at straws. I’m guessing they think this would stop the case from being heard.
We don't need them but would give a great reason to impeach them after the commies loose everything.
If it's a rumor they probably just down voted the hearing it but will be there if the others pass it through.
They have to have so many judges say yes to hearing the case. 5? Or 4 can't remember. Think between states it's 4. Then they must do their job.
If it goes to the House,Trump most likely wins!
