President Donald Trump went on a rampage after the Supreme Court refused to hear the lawsuit brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who sought to overturn election results in four other states.
The Supreme Court on Friday refused to hear the trial to overturn Joe Biden’s electoral victory, ending an attempt to debate legal issues that were dismissed by federal and state judges in the country’s highest court.
Judges Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito said they heard the case but refused to cancel the election result. The other seven judges refused to hear the case, ending the legal offer.
“This is a serious and scandalous miscarriage of justice. The people of the United States have been deceived and our country dishonored. Never even gave our day at court! Trump tweeted from the White House on Saturday morning.

“I won the election in a landslide, but remember, I only think in terms of legal votes, not all of the bogus voters and fraud that miraculously floated around! What a disgrace! ‘ He continued.
Trump also criticized the Republican governors of Georgia and Arizona, two states he won in 2016 but lost this year.
“Who is a worse governor, @BrianKempGA from Georgia or @dougducey from Arizona ???” He asked.
“These are two Republicans from RINO who fought against me and the Republican Party more than any Democrat. They made it easy to steal states that I won. Never forget, vote for their resignation! continued Trump.
More than 50 federal and state court decisions have confirmed Biden’s victory over Trump.
Trump refused to concede defeat, alleging without evidence that he was denied victory by massive fraud.
On Saturday, Trump supporters return to Washington for a pair of rallies to support his desperate efforts to subvert the election he lost.

One of the gatherings will take place at the Freedom Plaza in downtown and the other nearby on the National Mall.
The mall event, dubbed the Jericho March, is described on its website as a multi-hour “prayer gathering” with a series of sermons and speakers “praying that the walls of corruption and electoral fraud collapses ”.
The organizers of the Freedom Plaza rally appear determined to avoid confrontations, telling protesters to avoid certain hotels and marking off large parts of downtown Washington as a “no-go zone.”
Saturday’s rallies come a month after a pro-Trump protest that drew at least 10,000 people to the capital.
That day started with thrilling Trump supporters as his motorcade passed and ended with scattered clashes between his loyalists and local activists near Black Lives Matter Plaza near the White House.
