Chuck Wendig: How long before we get to the point where something isn't a crime if it's in *support* of the president and party?

How long before we get to the point where something isn't a crime if it's in *support* of the president and party?

I’m sorry, but I honestly believe your Supreme Court is corrupt.

I don't know why you're apologizing to me, yeah, it's brazenly, obviously corrupt.

It's the British way, you get used to it eventually.

^this.

I’m still sorry, because you all over there have to live with it and it’s so awful. You have such a beautiful country but these people are ruining any progress made over so many decades.

We're sorry, too.

It is.

You don't have to be sorry, we've got a whole pile of evidence of several of them taking bribes. They are absolutely bought and paid for.

Also they just declared that bribery is totes fine as long as you pay the bribe *after* the corrupt action, definitely a Not Corrupt thing to do.

I know 😡

Never apologize for speaking the truth.

Of course they are. Pro Publica has been proving it for a year.

6 Months if the election goes poorly?

And probably ~4 if the Trumpist march their Stormtrooppers to polling places..

We are already halfway there, with people like Rittenhouse or Perry getting let off and turned into absolute celebrities. It’s been mortifying.

less than 12 months

Didn't that happen Friday?

Not exactly, but you could argue it was an amuse-bouche of that.

Trump is re-posting about calling a military tribunal for Liz Cheney for her treason and all of the shenanigans planned in Project 2025 says early in a second Trump term if he gets it.

'Early', meaning day one..?

Pardons are official acts and so can't be bad, now, so...we're there already really.

Feel like it’s a very short walk at this point.

this is already just as bad

Not quite. It seems rather blatantly apparent that this blank check only goes to one side.

A year. Maybe.

Right after they re-institute the 3/5ths a human being (originalism you know) and repeal the 13th. But that's on next year's scotus docket...
