With every respect the Supreme Court’s decision not to even hear
Texas v. Pennsylvania is baffling. Texas Attorney-General Ken Paxton, a good man with respect, and a fine lawyer, assembled some pretty powerful arguments. Whilst Texas, and the states supporting her, could not be heard to complain about the conduct of
state elections in other states they had every right to complain about the corrupt conduct in other states of
federal elections.
This is not the first time the US legal system has buckled of course. There was the same with respect unprincipled resort to arguments about standing when the DVD got their Manchurian candidate Barack ‘von’ Obama elected in 2008. I am aware of course that Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE) has convinced himself that Barack Obama was born in Honolulu and is a US Citizen, which is absurd, no offense intended. Thankfully Senator Sasse isn’t a believer in perpetual incumbency, which in his case is probably just as well.
