The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday rejected the Texas lawsuit, seeking to reverse Joe Biden's election victory in four battleground states. The lawsuit challenged election results in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia, but the high court brushed it aside, saying Texas didn't have the standing to bring the case.

Touted by President Donald Trump as "the big one," the case garnered support from 126 of the 196 Republicans in the house, who urged the court to take it. Much to the president and his supporters' chagrin, the justices turned it down without wasting a lot of time.

In its brief unsigned opinion, the court pointed out that Texas failed to demonstrate a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which other states oversee its elections. Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas explained that the court wasn't authorized to refuse a case filed on its original docket, where one state files to sue another.

The justices went on to say that they wouldn't have given Texas any sort of relief and did not allude to even a single issue raised in the lawsuit. In other words, the ruling was nothing short of a unanimous rejection of the Texas lawsuit, according to NBC News.

Trump and his supporters believed the Texas suit was their best hope for overturning Biden's victory ahead of the presidential vote casting by the Electoral College on Monday. The president-elect team welcomed the ruling, calling it an end to Trump's baseless legal battle.

A spokesman for the Biden campaign, Michael Gwin, released a statement noting that the Supreme Court has promptly rejected the latest of Trump and his allies' attacks on the democratic process. This is hardly surprising, considering that several judges, election officials from both parties, and the president's own Attorney General have refused to support his baseless claims that the election was stolen from him.

Gwin went on to say that Biden's clear and commanding victory will be confirmed by the Electoral College on Monday, and he will be sworn on Jan. 20, CBS News reported. Senator Ben Sasse of Nebraska issued a statement Friday following the news saying the Supreme Court closed the book on the nonsense.

The Supreme Court's decision to not even refer to the dispute marks the second loss for the president and his GOP supporters this week. The justices on Tuesday turned down a bid from Pennsylvania Republicans to reverse the election results in the state. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel released a statement after the ruling that it is time for the nation to move forward.
