People seem to be relying on federal court to overturn an anti-majoritarian legislative decision on Bush v. Gore Equal Protection grounds. But how strong is an EP claim when the vote is explicitly non-binding (as decreed by state legislature under explicit Constitutional grant)?

Still don’t quite understand why rogue state couldn’t enact law before election saying “In event of a close election [defines close] the legislature will decide after considering the advice of the voters, which shall not be binding.” https://t.co/ezK1UtGrOL

The Reagan Amnesty was a disaster. Supposed to be amnesty in exchange for enforcement. The amnesty happened, The enforcement never did. Wound up with many millions more illegals.
No wonder this is now the Dem & GOP establishment blueprint for all immigration “compromise.” https://t.co/CyTXGuNw8v

Was this almost a Trump-free news cycle (except for, you know, the conviction). Can Trump take such prolonged obscurity? Suspect he will be back on @Twitter soon.

The latter is actually my position: If we found out Biden’s on the take for 10% from Hunter’s access peddling, it wouldn’t make the top 20 problems with Biden. Insignificant compared with his border abdication.
The story is the cover-up: corruption in the media and pundit class. https://t.co/VS0CrMSq6n

“That’s what Biden means when he says ‘There are more important things going on than the border crisis — not that it’s inconsequential, but that you’re a bad person for noticing.” https://t.co/1GSIFZAFYy

Political party A wants to hold an election rally in a parking lot, rents out the space. Incumbent party B (which runs the government) tells lot’s landlord to cancel the lease at last minute.

Didn’t FBI actually have the laptop during this period? So they would have known that the Russian disinfo story was BS or likely BS. Doesn’t this make their conduct-warning against a Hunter leak–look a lot worse?

FBI merely suggested spiking Hunter story. But under CW legal theory there’d be no 1st Amend. violation if FBI directly ORDERED the story throttled. It’s only Twitter’s speech rights at stake, see-and they willingly complied! Twitter tweeters got no rights https://t.co/mPKpCNKXrp

It looks like the planned “compromise” is to have a big “Dreamer” amnesty-creating this huge new incentive for illegal migration-but ‘in exchange’ we spend billions to help @SecMayorkas sluice millions of bogus asylum-seekers into the U.S. faster.
