TWJ Exclusive: Bombshell New Legal Memo Giving Trump Supporters Hope on Christmas Eve
By William J. Olson and Patrick M. McSweeney
Published December 24, 2020 at 11:01am

The Western Journal is presenting this memorandum, written by two prominent conservative legal scholars, essentially verbatim, with only enough editing to format it for the Op-Ed section of our website. This is the second memo by Messrs. Olson and McSweeney to be published exclusively by The Western Journal, and it, like the first, outlines a possible legal strategy for the Trump campaign to follow in the coming weeks. Prior to its publication here, it was sent to President Trump. — Ed. note

Overcoming the Court’s Abdication in Texas v. Pennsylvania

William J. Olson & Patrick M. McSweeney
December 24, 2020

In refusing to hear Texas v. Pennsylvania, the U.S. Supreme Court abdicated its constitutional duty to resolve a real and substantial controversy among states that was properly brought as an original action in that Court. As a result, the Court has come under intense criticism for having evaded the most important inter-state constitutional case brought to it in many decades, if not ever.

However, even in its Order dismissing the case, the Supreme Court identified how another challenge could be brought successfully — by a different plaintiff. This paper explains that legal strategy. But first we focus on the errors made by the Supreme Court — in the hopes that they will not be made again.

Uh.... I don't see those "reasons for great hope" in that article.  Primarily because of this excerpt:

Quote
If the same case previously brought by Texas were now brought by the United States of America, there is every reason to believe that the Supreme Court would be compelled to understand it must hear it and decide it favorably.

Big damned "if".

Label me a pessimist, but after witnessing the past four years of witch-hunt against anyone on the right that supports Trump.... coupled with an extreme opposite of "untouchable" status for anyone on the radical left....with Barr refusing to appoint a special investigator and then quitting right in the middle of this so-far bloodless coup and "war" we're embroiled in....

I don't see or get the "great hope" aspect.

Someone... anyone... please correct me if you can.   I really want to be wrong on this.   

No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.
