In that case, Biden will have to stay in office and declare martial law. It will put an end to the greatest democracy the world has even known.
@sree251 wouldn’t put that past Barry …
They seem pretty desperate to cling onto power

Congress decides who the President is. If the leaders had any guts they would plainly tell the corrupt Justices that if they interfere in the election in any way they will immediately be impeached and removed from office at gun point.

Deep State has always been in power. Trump in 2016 was a glitch.

Please read the federal constitution for clarification =

Article II
Section 1
Section 1
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.

He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.

The Electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by Ballot for two Persons, of whom one at least shall not be an Inhabitant of the same State with themselves. And they shall make a List of all the Persons voted for, and of the Number of Votes for each; which List they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the Seat of the Government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted. The Person having the greatest Number of Votes shall be the President, if such Number be a Majority of the whole Number of Electors appointed; and if there be more than one who have such Majority, and have an equal Number of Votes, then the House of Representatives shall immediately chuse by Ballot one of them for President; and if no Person have a Majority, then from the five highest on the List the said House shall in like Manner chuse the President. But in chusing the President, the Votes shall be taken by States, the Representation from each State having one Vote; A quorum for this Purpose shall consist of a Member or Members from two thirds of the States, and a Majority of all the States shall be necessary to a Choice. In every Case, after the Choice of the President, the Person having the greatest Number of Votes of the Electors shall be the Vice President. But if there should remain two or more who have equal Votes, the Senate shall chuse from them by Ballot the Vice President.

The SCOTUS has no jurisdiction in deciding who the POTUS is. The Congress Critters can be corrupt as hell but it is their responsibility, not the SCOTUS's.

BTW, if you don't know it, Congress is the most powerful branch of the federal government, but historically, its leaders have been wimps.

Yes, provided Congress critters collude and run the federal government however they want including in direct violation of the Constitution. As long as no issue is brought to the SCOTUS for resolution, Congress reigns supreme.

Congress has the right to limit what laws the SCOTUS can review unless they are specifically mentioned in the Constitution. All they have to do is to say this law is exempt from judical review and there's not a damn thing any court can do about it. And if the court tries a power play Congress can impeach them and kick their asses off of the bench.

The role of SCOTUS is to review cases. A US citizen can take Congress to court for violation of the Constitution. If SCOTUS rule against Congress, the decision can not only curb Congress but also open the way for further limitation of power of the legislative branch of the US Government.

Article III
Section 1 Section 2 Section 3

Section 1

The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.


Section 2

The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;—to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public ministers and Consuls;—to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;—to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;—to Controversies between two or more States;—between a State and Citizens of another State;—between Citizens of different States;—between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.


In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.


The Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed.


Section 3

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.

"Unlike the Supreme Court’s original jurisdiction,1 Article III provides that the Court’s appellate jurisdiction is subject to Exceptions and Regulations prescribed by Congress.2 Congress and the Court have construed this provision, sometimes called the Exceptions Clause, to grant Congress significant control over the Court’s appellate jurisdiction and proceedings. In addition, Congress possesses extensive authority to regulate the jurisdiction of the lower federal courts, and may limit the cases the Supreme Court can hear on appeal by generally stripping the federal courts of jurisdiction over certain cases."

Don't read the Constitution. It's a legal document best read by constitutional lawyers.

We are discussing the US Government. It is comprised of three branches: 1. Executive Branch (enforces laws), 2. Legislative Branch (make laws), and 3. Judicial Branch (interpret laws).

Congress can control the cases the SCOTUS can review unless such cases are specifically mentioned in the Constitution.

SCOTUS review cases submitted to it by any party. It's sole function is to interpret laws and decide if they are consistent with the provision and intent of the Constitution. SCOTUS is the final authority. There is no appeal against SCOTUS decision.
