The Supreme Court agreed on Monday to review a fast-tracked petition asking if Donald Trump can use his status as a former president to claim immunity from criminal charges related to his effort to overturn the 2020 election.
It’s a dangerous crossroads. The precedent would break this country…
And 3 of the judges making the decision were appointed by the guy on trial. Clarence Thomas is openly corrupt. And I wouldn’t depend on Roberts for any my moral backbone.
I’ve been pondering for a long time about how SCOTUS and more than 1/3 of the Senate could essentially take over the country over night. That case where they decided whether a state could overturn election results without federal interference gave me worry. But luckily most of them weren’t that radical. At least not right now.

I’m sure they have no desire to give Dark Brandon carte blanche to whatever the fuck he wants to do.
Right there ya go. OTOH, I don’t give a shit if he appointed them. They owe him nothing, he cannot do anything to them. It just doesn’t work that way.
Afraid this might be a close one.
