It remains astonishing that SCOTUS waited weeks to even announce they were taking on the presidential immunity case and now we stand on the eve of the last scheduled day of decisions and they still haven't released it -- all but guaranteeing Trump will not face a federal jury before the election.
This should be a constitutional crisis of once in a lifetime proportions and Sotomayor, Kagan, and KBJ should be giving a presser about it
And the fact that they don’t means we have already lost folks
What a job. Not only do you get almost unrestricted latitude to interpret the nation’s laws as you see fit, but also you don’t even have to follow any sort of pre-prescribed template or norms for when and how you will do so
what's the logic of the liberal justices who don't speak out? Are they ideologically captured by the myth of the court? Do they think(probably true) that no media would accurately report on their claims?
They have to protect their phony-baloney jobs, i.e., "I have to work with these people."
If they did the rational thing it would expose too much of the lie propping up the whole court. Gotta keep the curtain in place so people keep looking at the giant screaming head.
I understand SCOTUS has always been political, but I never recall them being so nakedly so. For someone purportedly concerned about his legacy, Roberts has a funny way of showing it.
I think the history books will speak of his Court, but not in the way he wants.
That’s been clear since they took this ridiculous case in the first place. A majority of the SCOTUS is doing Trump’s bidding. Even if he officially loses the case, he’s won. They’ve very deliberately given him the long delay he wanted.
