It is up to each State to decide how its electors are chosen.  The problem here is that a number of States violated their own election laws.  That should have been handled at the State level, and short of that, it should be settled by the fourth branch of government.

Here in Georgia, both State and County officials violated State Law.  And sadly, the State GOP did not lift a finger to stop it.  No lawsuits.  No injunctions.  Nothing.  Not a damn thing.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

I'm sorry my friend but you are just flat out wrong on this one! @roamer_1

@Bigun

I know we've gone around about this before... But I am loathe to attack state sovereignty... The precedent you seek could offer fertile means for liberal states to gang up and coerce individual states with any number of grievances.

In that, I think sovereignty remaining sacrosanct is far more important than any immediate gain.

In my opinion, it is within the reach of the People to provide the remedy. And it should be that they remain the only authority over their own representatives.

The loss and shenanigans should be enough for a transmission of will by the People in the next available election. It is the apathy of the people of Georgia that would allow it to remain.

Cohen is delusional; he's been drinking too much of his own kool-aid.

FBI would not let Trump attorneys in rooms as agents raided Mar-a-Lago, warrant focused on NARA: source
'There is no need for any of this,' a source told Fox News

By Brooke Singman | Fox News

    FBI agents would not allow Trump lawyers watch as they raided former President Trump’s private home at Mar-a-Lago early Monday morning, a source told Fox News.

Trump was in New York City while his home in Palm Beach, Florida, was raided.

A source familiar with the raid told Fox News the warrant for the raid was related to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) effort to collect records and materials the former president took with him from Washington, D.C., to Mar-a-Lago.

"This was a NARA issue," the source close to the former president told Fox News, adding Trump has been "cooperating."

"There is no need for any of this," the source said, adding the FBI "wouldn’t let the attorneys come in to watch the raid. They told them to leave."

The source told Fox News that when NARA visited Mar-a-Lago in February, Trump and his team "gave them what they wanted."

"It was all provided to them," the source said. "This is absurd."

Another source told Fox News negotiations and communications "never broke down."

Earlier this year, NARA said Trump took 15 boxes of presidential records to his personal residence in Florida. Those boxes allegedly contained "classified national security information" and official correspondence between Trump and foreign heads of state.

NARA notified Congress in February that the agency recovered the 15 boxes from Mar-a-Lago and "identified items marked as classified national security information within the boxes."

State sovereignty in federal elections is not absolute as it most decidedly affects other states.

Or does the US Constitution mean nothing to you?

So quit the union if you do not like the gang approach.

This is how one gets branded an 'insurrectionist', by not toeing the government line.

Trump Attorneys Spill the Beans on Issues With FBI Raid, Warrant
By Nick Arama | Aug 09, 2022 10:30 PM ET

The attorneys for President Donald Trump are now spilling the beans on some of the issues with the FBI raid of his home and the search warrant.

Trump attorney Alina Habba appeared on Fox News with Jesse Watters. She said that they had been cooperating with the National Archives over the records and that this was completely “unconstitutional.” “Our country should be terrified—I am terrified,” Habba exclaimed. She said the FBI went in when he wasn’t even there, and then told his attorneys to leave, that they couldn’t watch or be there. “That doesn’t sound good to me,” she declared.

No one is attacking state sovereignty least of all Texas! That lawsuit was about Pennsylvania's violations of the FEDERAL constitution (can't change the rules in the middle of the game) and SCOTUS had original jurisdiction! @roamer_1

Shower thought:

This is sorta genius on Trump's part. If they did go in on these meaningless documents, he gets his name in the headlines for 2 years into a predecessor's presidency, probably a slap on the wrist penalty, his supporters fired up to vote for him, and he looks sympathetic. I mean, imagine any other 1 term president (Jimmy Carter or Papa Bush) still getting this much press 2 years into their predecessor's presidency's?

I mean i usually don't like these "Trump is playing 4 dimensional chess" arguments, but this one checks out IMO.

I heard one talking head speculate that this event is somewhat of a "Hail Mary" to nail DJT on a Archivial Records infraction, which supposedly, by technicality could disqualify him from seeking national office.

If this is this the case, this is wanton desperation on the behalf of his enemies.

@LMAO

The GOP "Good Old Boys Club" hate and fear Trump upsetting their apple carts as much as their Dim brother in graft hate and fear him. And for the same reasons,namely he will destroy business as usual for them,and cost them millions in lost graft. Not to mention their power and positions as "princes of the court".
