Minnesota Supreme Court Dismisses Case To Keep Trump Off The Ballot
2023-11-10
(ET via ZERO] The Minnesota Supreme Court rejected a lawsuit that sought to keep former President Donald Trump off the state's Republican primary ballot on Wednesday, after having heard arguments on whether they should take the case.

In a brief opinion and order written by Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson, the justices said the petition was dismissed without prejudice.

Free Speech for People, a liberal group, had sued on behalf of eight local voters, arguing that the secretary of state putting President Trump on the ballot would be an "error."

In the opinion, Chief Justice Hudson wrote, "there is no 'error' to correct here as to the presidential primary election if former President Trump’s name is included on the presidential primary ballot after the Chair of the Republican Party of Minnesota provides his name to the Secretary of State."

"Because there is no error to correct here as to the presidential nomination primary, and petitioners’ other claims regarding the general election are not ripe, the petition must be dismissed," she wrote.

She added that this dismissal would not prevent the petitioners from bringing forth the claim again regarding the general election ballot.

President Trump commented on the decision in a Truth Social post.

"Ridiculous 14th Amendment lawsuit just thrown out by Minnesota Supreme Court. Without Merit, Unconstitutional. Congratulations to all who fought this HOAX!" he wrote.

#8  So the whole 14th Amendment thing is an idea so ludicrous that it won't even fly in Minnesota.

Given as we get closer to the 2024 election cycle, we are now seeing increased efforts of "Block-Trump" stunts pulled in various forms and ways by the Biden Regime Controllers & LSD Party leaders.

It is clear, the LSD's are in CYA mode and understand that if Trump is allowed to run, the odds are in a honest election he will be elected.

As he will flush out the ANTI-USA subversives, simply just by restoring strict adherence to the US Constitutional, the Bill Of Rights and the application of US LAW in the US Justice system.

Question: But will the US Media Owners carry the Court Trials live of those charged with Treason, Subversion, False imprisonment, Murder, and other Criminal Acts? Or go NEWS-SPEAK to hide their own complicity in these crimes?
