The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania accused the State of Texas of sedition in its filing Thursday at the U.S. Supreme Court, responding to a Texas lawsuit seeking to invalidate the presidential vote of four other states on constitutional grounds.
Pennsylvania said that Texas was guilty of “seditious abuse of the judicial process.” Sedition is commonly understood as rebellion, and is defined more precisely in federal criminal law as an attempt to overthrow the United States government.
As Breitbart News was the first to report, Texas sued Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin on Monday night, alleging that they went outside their state legislatures to change their voting procedures, in violation of the U.S. Constitution. In addition, Texas argued that these states had applied their own laws unevenly, and allowed irregularities to occur. It is seeking to have the vote results in these states set aside, and the choice of electors to be decided by the state legislatures.
Pennsylvania and the other defendant states filed their responses on Thursday, together with a variety of other parties. The Pennsylvania response was written by Attorney General Josh Shapiro, known for his highly partisan approach. He wrote:
Since Election Day, State and Federal courts throughout the country have been flooded with frivolous lawsuits aimed at disenfranchising large swaths of voters and undermining the legitimacy of the election. The State of Texas has now added its voice to the cacophony of bogus claims. Texas seeks to invalidate elections in four states for yielding results with which
it disagrees. Its request for this Court to exercise its original jurisdiction and then anoint Texas’s preferred candidate for President is legally indefensible and is an afront [sic] to principles of constitutional democracy.

So to have an opinion is seditious to these Libtards.
Oh and it is not seditious to ignore the State Constitution regarding the election process?
Transylvania’s crimes are against Citizens in other states.
[if only they cared about the USA and the dead elderly
they murdered(for their pensions and votes)as much as MOMMY.]
Since it appears that our “justice” system is as broken as our “election” system, chances are that we have no recourse, so who cares what is said one way or the other. Might as well stick a fork in America, it appears done...
Seditious? That’s what King George said to the colonials..
Josh Shapiro is a walking, talking POS who has the legal acumen of a two-year-old. Thanks to Georgie Soros for foisting this jackass on us. Can’t wait for the court to hand his azz to him.
If hateful accusations are the best response he can come up with, DJT is in very good shape.
Like accusing Texas of Sedition is gonna scare them off. They were there entire own country at one point in history, you jack~wagons!
The sedition is on the other foot. They sent out mail-in ballots.
Did AG Sharpiro ever address the merits of the Texas case concerning the failure of the defendant states to abide by the election laws established by their respective state legislatures and mandated by the U. S. Constitution? Or did he just opine in a manner favorable to the Democrats about the fraudulent election that falsely gave a win to Joe Biden?
The SCOTUS should demand the former.
I live here in Pennsylvania and I’m deeply ashamed of our state. For the record, I wouldn’t piss on Tommie the Commie Wolf if the SOB was on fire!
Overwrought hyperbole, a sure sign your pleading sucks.
Having read some of the PA submission, it’s quite lame.
The problem is two fold. They are corrupy and they don’t fear us.
No...it’s “sedition” to do what they’ve done against President Trump!
There is no such cime.
Sedition is commonly understood as rebellion, and is defined more precisely in federal criminal law as an attempt to overthrow the United States government.
Which is exactly what the Dems, Biden, the media and big tech have been trying to do to President Trump for the last four years.
Stuck pig is squealing
I have been saying for years now that ballot stuffing should be a capital offense. It is seditious, it seeks to overthrow the government
PA is a basket case. It’s a millstone for the other states that live within the law.
