OK, we are officially down the rabbit hole now. Not even the good Rev Dodgson could have envisioned this nonsense…

These guys are nuts, but they all have guns. I am afraid shooting is going to follow the court’s final decision.

Trump loses the institutional power of the presidency in just a few weeks, leaving him naked and powerless to what is coming. The arrogance of these people is what gets them in the end. God is in the details.

The most salient aspect of this new filing is that it reduces the already minimal credibility of the underlying lawsuit. Basically, if you have a bunch of bozos flocking to your flag, it’s not good for your credibility. At least in court, if not in poltiics.

“This decision created what our Founding Fathers feared; a tyranny of the majority (‘mob rule’),” Thomas told the paper. “Now, large population centers out-vote all the rest of rural Nevada with distressing regularity. That injustice can be corrected by the formation of a New Nevada State.”

Wait, what???

Well, I hereby declare that my state of New Real American Texas has 100,000 electoral votes - and they’re all going to Biden! Nyh nyh!

Your vote matters less if you vote in “large population centers” (that are not rural).

If you cannot fix this without the formation of a new state, then it sucks to be you.

So, according to the RW, we have a new constitutional theory that says that any person who wants to do so can immediately declare that a new state exists that should have full sovereignty under law. And. further, an individual can self-declare themselves to be the leader of this “sovereign” entity.

Sounds a bit like an insurrection, doesn’t it? Because it is RWNJ’s doing this, they have special status, however. Just ask Trump.

“Clark County has a larger population than all the rural counties of Nevada combined,” Thomas wrote. “Thus, what Clark County desires, Rural Nevada must accept, like it or not.”

What was that thing about one person, one vote? You’d like to change that to 1.5 votes for you, .5 for Clark County, and 2 for Bundys? Also, too, have you been in contact with The State of Jefferson? Sounds like you have some things in common. You don’t seem to have created a spiffy flag like theirs BTW. Such artistry. (The 2 Xs seem to stand for “double cross,” as in cheating. I was going for the prominence of women, but no.)
