Short of a miracle...

 I must say that I am extremely disappointed.  The Texas lawsuit against Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania presented a clear case of a violation of the Equal Protection clause of the Constitution.  Yet the Supremes decided they were peachy keen fine with the disenfranchisement of some 74 to 80 million of us.  They didn't want to even hear the case.  While I had little faith that the Surpremes would deliver relief for legal voters, who voted for Trump, and send the message that cheating and fraud would not be rewarded in our elections, the fact remains they should have done the right thing.  But apparently 7 of the Justices chose NOT to do the right thing, including the 3 Justices who owe their positions to President Trump.  Still they took an oath to defend the Constitution, not the President, and they have abrogated that their oath. When the socialist come for our guns, which they have promised to do, we now know where we stand.  We can not count on the Supremes.

I can not imagine what Trump must be feeling. At the American Thinker C. Edmund Write has a post that expresses what I am feeling at the moment entitled After SCOTUS knife in the back, what Trump must do now.. According to Wright:

Our feckless Supreme Court has chosen guaranteed cocktail party invitations with the beautiful people in the swamp over the Constitutional Republic — and favored phony pieces of mailed ballots and theoretical Dominion algorithms over flesh-and-blood voters.

As it stands, President Donald Trump faces what may be the most distasteful test of patriotism any president has ever faced. And it may be among the most important ever as well. To be fair, this is not the horrible choice of instantly killing hundreds of thousands of non-combatant citizens — including kids — the kind of decisions surrounding the bombings of Dresden, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki in World War 2. Clearly not. But on a personal gut level, it must be an even more bitter choice. And again, in this, we need him more than he needs us — or anyone, or anything.

As I said, I can not imagine what the President must be feeling, but one suspects he is feeling the horrible sting of having been betrayed, of having that knife dig deep into his heart. While it is still possible for the State legislatures of Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania to do the right thing, I have even less faith that they will do so. While the Supremes are supposedly "independent," these politicians are...well...politicians. They naturally have other considerations than simply the law. They seem to only do the right thing by shear accident. 

Then there is Congress itself, which can...CAN chose not to seat these electors if the legislatures do not do the right thing. But a lot of Republicans hate the President, so they are not likely to do the right thing. The Republicans have another problem: they think they will get another chance, that there will be other elections. What they don't understand is if this election is stolen, the Republicans will never be in power again, at least in any meaningful way. This nation will forever be effectively a one party state. The Democrats will be able to do anything they desire. There will be no one to slow them down let alone stop them.  The entire country will be like California, or worse.

Meanwhile, Andrea Widburg notes that Sidney Powell is Still Out there Fighting I applaud the work Sidney Powell is doing.  But here's the problem: In order to have any effect, these crimes need to be prosecuted and people need to publicly go to jail. Indeed, some high level people in the crime organization known as the Democrat party need to go to jail for a long stretch.  That requires the Justice Department to do its job, which it has been reluctant to do. While Powell may be able to bring the evidence she is collecting to a court, and a court may deign to hear it, if Trump is not President, the crimes she highlights will never be prosecuted.

Short of a miracle, I think it is all over. The United States of America is history. In its place will rise the Socialist States of America. The SSA. We can start by naming Navy ships SSS.

Update:  Yesterday, Dean Weingarten at  at Ammoland in a post entitled Terror, Supreme Court Justices, and the Existencial Threat opined that the Supremes would not knuckle under to threats. Of course, one can not know what is in another's mind, but it appears that Weingarten was wrong. As I sai, at this point, short of a miracle, our Republic is lost. May God have mercy on us, for the socialists will surely not.
