It’s not disagreement it’s people accepting that 2+2=4 and Biden Won. Which are 2 unquestionable facts. You can’t disagree with either and look intelligent in the slightest.
Pot, meet kettle. You just got done telling everyone educated in the last 50 years that they’re “wrong about everything.” Maybe stop cranking out these pretentious, dramatic word scrambles before you call anyone else “condescending.”I find that the petty, snippy, arrogant, condescending voices here HATE disagreement.
I just want people to accept reality. I don’t really care about the unity of the United States.People want everyone to accept the election results BECAUSE NOT DOING SO THREATENS OUR DEMOCRACY.
Do you even know what Martial Law and under what circumstances it can be exercise? I suggest you read up on the Posse Comitatus Act. I'm not going to do your homework for you because you cannot throw phrases like Martial Law without knowing what it means. And whatever Mikr Flynn says about Martial Law is untruthful and irrelevant.
The House and Senate will receive the votes from the Electoral College on Jan 6, but no “effective legal decision” can happen. Courts do not have authority or power now.The US Senate and House members may contest on January 6 when the count is made and it may result in a different outcome. Also there may be a effective legal decision made before January 20 that could result in a different outcome.
Very true and the minimum percentage of those who agree must be considerably higher, given that 51.38% of voters in the last election supported the candidate who intends to do that and surely at least some portion of the 46.91% of those who supported the other candidate likewise agree even though their preferred candidate spent the last three plus years doing the opposite and would certainly continue to do so had he won.By whatever immature name they are called, 50% at a minimum want to retain the DNA of the US while fixing the remaining flaws.
The US Code is being followed. There is a process in place for contention.
Joint Session of Congress to Count Electoral Votes and Declare Election Results MeetsDecember 14, 2020 (The Monday after the second Wednesday in December) the electors met and voteed (3 U.S.C. §7) by paper ballot, casting a ballot for President and a ballot for Vice President. Alternates may also be designated (and this was done in a few states).
Joint Session Challenges to Electoral Vote ReturnsOn January 6, 2021 the Senate and House of Representatives assemble at 1:00 p.m. at the Capitol to count the electoral votes and declare the results (3 U.S.C. §15) with the Vice President presiding as President of the Senate. He opens the certificates and presents them to four tellers, two from each chamber, who read them and make a list of the returns.
Reporting ResultsWhile the tellers announce the results, members may object to the returns from a state as announced. The objections to individual state returns are made in writing by at least one Member each of the Senate and House of Representatives, and when so done, the joint session recesses and the two houses separate and debate for up to two hours. Then the two houses vote separately to accept or reject the objection. Once this is done then they reassemble in joint session to announce the results. If an objection to a state’s electoral vote is approved by both houses it will be excluded.
Once the votes are ascertained and counted, they are transmit to the Vice President. If one of the candidates has received 270 or more electoral votes then the Vice President announces the results which “shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of the persons, if any, elected President and Vice President.”
I posted the process in another post.Vico:

The states have certified the Electors, the electors have voted. It is now in the hands of Congress to decide if the Electors are valid. A court decision may happen that will affect how Congress will handle this, but last year’s impeachment trial shows how little something like that matters.
We will not be able to verify that since the forum will be shut down.Vico:
This is about as likely as me waking up tomorrow with my head stapled to the carpet.The US Senate and House members may contest on January 6 when the count is made and it may result in a different outcome.
It's a tale. A tale full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. No amount of legal doublespeak will excuse or erase their (the 126 Congressionmen who collaborated to dismantle American democracy) Faustian Bargain in which they signed onto a document with the intent to undermine American democracy. That's exactly what they did.
They sealed their own fate and there is no redo or going back. They crossed the Rubicon, and there is no turning back. Hstory will not be kind to their attempt to undermine the American election process with a coup d'etat. Any attempt to sabotage an American election in which a candidate won both the popular vote and the Electoral College vote in landslides is nothing less then an illegal attempt to nullify the will of the American people. The 2020 election was a mandate of the American people for change. No amount of spin or propaganda will convince anyone that they had no evil intent. None. Never. Ever.
This is a rubber stamp as you well know. It serves only to protect against a rogue Electoral College going against the will of the people. In this case it will simply confirm the will of the people.Joint Session Challenges to Electoral Vote Returns
Who are they?
It’s more like the BLM crowd storming into restaurants and demanding that the patrons stand and say, “Black Lives Matter!”. I don’t believe that anyone should be required to make a public announcement that they accept the results of the election for it to be valid.Or like they care about their country and don’t want to see it torn apart by frivolous accusations of “fraud.”
