The immunity ruling, Sotomayor said, “‘lies about like a loaded weapon’ for any President that wishes to place his own interests, his own political survival or his own financial gain above the interests of the Nation.”
Trump’s pointing the loaded weapon at us.

And Trump knew in 2016 the risks of covid he played stupid because he owned stock in Pfizer so he told people not to wear masks uneducated people who believed him and did it and each one of his rallies spread more and more of the disease until millions were infected and thousands died. Sue him!

The Chief Justice chastised her for thinking she knew better than he. She did. The power of pragmatic thinking.

We are on fifth avenue and that somebody is the American people.

It undoes the impeachment clause. As long as his actions can be couched in an official act he can abuse power, the thing high crimes and misdemeanors was meant to address.

I wonder if Schumer backed the CR in part due to his desire to get out of DC for his book tour.

He's not going to last much longer, but there's a real nasty Nazi ( Vance) who's young and just can't wait to destroy his share of the World.

I don't have much faith in the American public but the Courts have generally performed as they were intended. I believe it's 50/50 whether we'll have a United States next year.

I cannot imagine how this does not all end in violence at this point.

The immunity ruling, along with Citizens United, practically invites corruption. To make a man like Trump virtually immune from prosecution is a grotesque affront to the very idea of justice. Trump who has routinely defied the law and abused our court system needs greater scrutiny not carte blanche.

From the article: "As the full damage of the immunity ruling becomes painfully clearer—as does the culpability of Chief Justice John Roberts who penned the decision—it’s worth remembering that Justice Sotomayor and others understood what they had done."

John Roberts claimed to be thinking long term. But you can't get to the long term if you can't get through the short term.

His campaign was a gun pointed at America's head, and we pulled the trigger

Hey Susie Wiles, your dog is off his chain again.

I thought you promised this wouldn’t happen again.

Time to send the old bitch across the rainbow bridge.

captjohnparker.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes it is. But many/most of those 77 million will applaud that almost-snuff-film. Our problem is not trump. In the inimitable words of Walt Kelly, "We have met the enemy, and he is us."

azdesertrose.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes!

tokillamockingbird.bsky.social•2 days ago

Just repeating myself and others, but again: this guy? That’s who is undermining the nation Lincoln preserved?

Hamilton and Madison and Adams always seemed to have done such a good job achieving counterbalances.

But isn't 'Brandishing' illegal? Oh, wait... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
