This guy has filed a case about the 2020 election being invalid because Congress didnt investigate "voter fraud claims" after the election. As far as I can tell, the Court accepted this case.
Is there a legal mind among us who can read and interpret this BS & explain why the SCOTUS wouldnt just let the lower court dismissals stand?
22-380 is the case
