(Ryan DeLarme) The Supreme Court denied Texas’s request to sue Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin. They opined that Texas lacked legal standing—or capability—to sue under the Constitution because it has not shown a valid interest to intervene in how other states handle their elections.

In an interview with Newsmax, Giuliani called the court’s decision a “terrible, terrible mistake”:
“Basically the courts are saying they want to stay out of this, they don’t want to give us a hearing, they don’t want the American people to hear the facts… These facts will remain an open sore in our history unless they get resolved. They need to be heard, they need to be aired and somebody needs to make a decision on whether they’re true or false. And some courts are going to have to have the courage to make that decision.”
He continued:
“The case wasn’t rejected on the merits the case was rejected on standing, the answer to that is to bring the case now to the district court by the president by some of electors alleging the same facts where there would be standing and therefore get a hearing.”
“There’s nothing that prevents us from filing these cases immediately in the district court, in which the president would have standing, Some of the electors would have standing in that their constitutional rights have been violated.”
Jenna Ellis, a Trump campaign senior legal adviser, told Newsmax that there is still a “line of attack.”
“The mayor (Giuliani) said that we’ve contemplated filing this as separate lawsuit in district court because obviously the president himself would have standing. It’s amazing to think that these other states, these voters who are disenfranchised, wouldn’t,”
She signaled that the team still has time up until Jan. 6 when Congress officially counts the Electoral College votes.
“That date in January. That’s the date of ultimate significance. And the Supreme Court has recognized that. We still have time, the state legislatures still have time to do the right thing. They can inquire, they can hold hearings, they can reclaim their delegates, and they should and I hope that now all of the evidence we have brought forth in these hearings will give them the inspiration and courage that they need to act.”
President Donald Trump also responded late Friday evening to the Supreme Court order rejecting Texas’s bid.

He continued:
“So, you’re the President of the United States, and you just went through an election where you got more votes than any sitting President in history, by far – and purportedly lost,”
“You can’t get ‘standing’ before the Supreme Court, so you ‘intervene’ with wonderful states that, after careful study and consideration, think you got ‘screwed’, something which will hurt them also. Many others likewise join the suit but, within a flash, it is thrown out and gone, without even looking at the many reasons it was brought. A Rigged Election, fight on!”
Justice Samuel Alito issued a statement to say he would have granted Texas’s request to sue, but not the preliminary injunction, as he believes the Supreme Court is obligated to take up any case that falls within its “original jurisdiction,” meaning the court has the power to hear a case for the first time as opposed to reviewing a lower court’s decision. Justice Clarence Thomas joined Alito in his statement.
“In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing of a bill of complaint in a case that falls within our original jurisdiction. … I would therefore grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue,” Alito wrote in his statement. He did not address the questions in the case.
