This has the hand (mind) of Sen. Ted Cruz all over it, in my opinion. Cruz has gone to radio silence on his podcast lately, which usually means he's working behind the scenes on important stuff. Like this, and the PA Supreme Court case. My observation.
Nah, Ted had other important things to do, it's early December in South Texas

I think the least controversial possibility is that these states send NO electors, as their election results can't be validated either way. That would take away the 270 from Biden, and throw the vote to the states delegations in the US Congress, where the R's hold the advantage. Dreaming, I know...
Listening to Tim Pool read the breitbart article and filing Texas is citing the same grounds as bush v gore in that all votes were not equal, and legislators did not change the voting rules which is also illegal per the constitution.
As we kind of expected, i think the Kraken is a long play/red herring and that perhaps this could have been the plan all long. Run out the clock strategy for SCOTUS. Texas could have filed this day 1 but they didnt.

I never realized this possibility even existed. But as always a perceived Republican advantage often times is not a advantage at all. The Democrat party is only still relevant today because they posses the ability to turn a disadvantage to a advantage. A truth to a lie and a lie to the truth. Of course they have a complicit public media giving them a large assist in doing so but even more than that they accomplish these things by thinking as one, speaking as one, doing as one and acting as one. They rarely if ever have to deal with a idealist in their party looking to chart their own path.
The inability of the Republican party to do the same has led to many of their downfalls. Sadly I don't see anything that signals a change.

Suspected Chinese spy targeted California politicians
A suspected Chinese intelligence operative developed extensive ties with local and national politicians, including a U.S. congressman, in what U.S. officials believe was a political intelligence operation run by China’s main civilian spy agency between 2011 and 2015, Axios found in a yearlong investigation.
The woman at the center of the operation, a Chinese national named Fang Fang or Christine Fang, targeted up-and-coming local politicians in the Bay Area and across the country who had the potential to make it big on the national stage.
Through campaign fundraising, extensive networking, personal charisma, and romantic or sexual relationships with at least two Midwestern mayors, Fang was able to gain proximity to political power, according to current and former U.S. intelligence officials and one former elected official.
Even though U.S. officials do not believe Fang received or passed on classified information, the case "was a big deal, because there were some really, really sensitive people that were caught up" in the intelligence network, a current senior U.S. intelligence official said.
Among the most significant targets of Fang's efforts was Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif. ).
Fang took part in fundraising activity for Swalwell’s 2014 re-election campaign, according to a Bay Area political operative and a current U.S. intelligence official. Swalwell’s office was directly aware of these activities on its behalf, the political operative said. That same political operative, who witnessed Fang fundraising on Swalwell's behalf, found no evidence of illegal contributions.

Yes it was on the GA states website to try and chinese nationals to visit GA. A few states have done that. Lets watch DNI Ratliffe over the next few weeks. A slow drip seems to be starting in the news about Chinas influence.

They aren't even close to having the numbers in the House or Senate in GA for the petition and the Bannon podcast from today talks about why they are so weak. They are worried about getting doxed, Antifa showing up and getting blamed, and they think it's a party of Romney where things will go back to normal. Bunch of cowards down there and across the country.

As Time Is Running Out, Trump Campaign Files Stronger Lawsuit in Georgia By Andrew C. McCarthy
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

On OANN this morning there is an article indicating that President Trump would like to see election reform
I'm not sure we need election reform as much as we need to eliminate everyone that tried to throw the election from ever having that opportunity to do so again
if that were to happen, the process would reform itself instantly

This guy feels like a never-Trumper. The tone is that Trump really doesn't have a chance. Oh, and he's made sure to mention the Dominion voting machine cheat is a bunch of "unhinged cyber-fraud claims".

Don’t move to, or near Austin, it’s a liberal city run by liberals that continue to flood into the state and fuck things up for the conservatives who live elsewhere in the state....Dallas and Houston are in the same boat.

OTOH, wouldn't a flood of conservatives into those cities flip them? I live in Dallas and like it here. We need all the conservatives we can get.

Supreme Court Formally Dockets Texas Election Case Against Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania And Wisconsin
Update (1515ET): Just twelve hours after it was filed, the US Supreme Court has officially put Texas's lawsuit against Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin on the docket, meaning the case will be heard.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies.
