Yep. That's it.

The cultural fever swamps are pretty huge in the US. It may be abetted by the Russians. But Fox News and Rush Limbaugh fit into the constitutional architecture, so it's partly home-grown.

I don't suppose the framers imagined that free speech would be a propaganda tool for the dissemination of mass-scale untruths. If they'd known, maybe they'd have focussed on freedom's costs at the extremes, as well as its mainstream benefits.

Colorado joins 23-state coalition opposing Texas election lawsuit

Colorado and the 22 other states, including California, New York, New Mexico and Oregon, filed a brief in the Texas lawsuit case on Thursday.

"The Constitution grants the states the power to set their own rules for presidential elections held within their own states. The Texas lawsuit undermines this state authority and it is a threat to the rule of law. Most troubling, this is an attack on democracy itself,” Weiser said in a news release. “Voters, not courts or lawyers, choose the president.”

The suit from the Texas attorney general, Republican Ken Paxton, demands that the 62 total Electoral College votes in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin be invalidated. Legal experts dismiss Paxton’s filing as the latest and perhaps longest legal shot since Election Day, and officials in the four states are sharply critical of Paxton.

Dozens of other Republican-led election lawsuits have been dismissed since Election Day.
