Each of the four battleground states targeted by a Texas lawsuit seeking to overturn President Donald Trump's election defeat issued blistering briefs at the Supreme Court on Thursday, with Pennsylvania officials going so far as to call the effort a "seditious abuse of the judicial process."

The court filings from Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin come a day after Trump asked the Supreme Court to intervene in the lawsuit brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton seeking to invalidate millions of votes in their states. The lawsuit amounts to an unprecedented request for legal intervention in an election despite there being no evidence of widespread fraud.

"Texas's effort to get this Court to pick the next President has no basis in law or fact. The Court should not abide this seditious abuse of the judicial process, and should send a clear and unmistakable signal that such abuse must never be replicated," wrote Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro.

The rat media will try to focus this lawsuit by limiting all references to Texas and, in particular, Paxton, as the litigant.

Freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. Paxton is about to receive a rectal exam.

The fact 18 other states have joined will scarcely be mentioned.

Plaintiffs should remind the court of PA AG Shapiro's pre-election statement to the effect that Trump would lose PA if all the votes were counted, and re-iterate that the suit seeks redress for a seditious abuse of the electoral process that degrades every vote cast in every other state.

The media will also insist on maintaining the "fraud" angle, when the central issue is instead a Constitutional violation.

Good point.  What Shapiro said before the election, given his position as AG, was astonishing, especially given Democrat memes re voter suppression.
