Judge dismisses Gohmert's attempt to force Pence to decide election By Caroline Linton 1 hr ago A federal judge on Friday dismissed a lawsuit brought by Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas that sought to empower Vice President Mike Pence to unilaterally decide the 2020 election results rather than have Congress count the electoral votes on January 6. Pence and the Department of Justice on Thursday had urged the court to reject Gohmert's lawsuit, saying the power lies with the House and the Senate. U.S. District Court Judge Jeremy Kernodle of the Eastern District of Texas said the plaintiffs lack "standing" to sue, since they claim "institutional injury" to the House of Representatives, but "that is insufficient to support standing." The court also said Gohmert "does not identify any injury to himself as an individual, but rather a 'wholly abstract and widely dispersed' institutional injury to the House of Representatives." On Saturday, a three-judge panel on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the lower court's ruling. In the one-paragraph ruling the judges wrote "We need say no more," but also noted, "We express no view on the underlying merits." The appeals court ruled so quickly that the plaintiffs' request for an expedited decision was rendered moot. The House and the Senate are set to count the Electoral College votes on January 6, an event that usually draws little fanfare. But some of President Trump's supporters are using it as a last-ditch attempt to overturn the election results. Gohmert had claimed in the lawsuit that Pence has the "sole" power to decide the outcome of the election, and Gohmert claimed he had 140 House members willing to object to the election results.

Well, Steve as you can see, your HERO'S BULL💩 went NOWHERE in The Court of LAW again. I also see, Steve why are you still trying to prove a LIE?

Steve, why you are playing Brand New NOW? We have been talking about your failed Hero Louie Gohmer and his 60 FAILED court cases because of a lack of creditable evidence.
Steve, this thug has been thrown out of 60 courts, what embarrassment you are for following people like this.

You know from the reactions of the way Trump is handling things, I must thank Trump for opening up more Americans' eyes to what he is doing, every day.
Steve, did you know, not only has Trump lost his race to be a two-term president of The United States of America, but he also lost The Senate and Georgia turned BLUE to elect two democrats as Senator's indirect defense to the lasting legacy of Trump and all this happened under TRUMPS watch?
Now in your inactions, you act like you have missed anything that we have been talking about over the many years about Trump Steve?
Remember this Steve, you can't prove a LIE and you saw it all in living color.

No, it's not and you still can answer the simplest of questions:
"Steve, did you know, not only has Trump lost his race to be a two-term president of The United States of America, but he also lost The Senate and Georgia turned BLUE to elect two democrats as Senator's indirect defense to the lasting legacy of Trump and all this happened under TRUMPS watch, did you know that?"

This is what TRUMP will be remembered for in U.S. History, this DARK DAY in American history which you support Steve. This is truly a dark day, Thanks, Steve!
All this happens without any proof at all, just LIES from Donald J. Trump.
Steve, this is just another example, "THAT YOU CAN'T PROVE A LIE.

Steve, just stop and think for a moment and ask yourself, why would a left wing group like Antifa help right-wing groups like "THE Q" and or The Proud Boys gain from a protest in D.C., that Trump invited on Jan 6th?
Still being that good Trump supporter Steve?
