Christ, rather than celebrating, I'm wondering what these fucks are really up to?

By one vote! How in gods name was this not 9-0? It's because SCOTUS is no longer a legitimate institution. It is corrupt and is not constrained by settled law or the actual words of the constitution. Roberts court is a fraud.
The Supreme Court made the right decision. I noticed that the right wing Trump Justices tried everything to protect him like they always do. They don't care about the law when it comes to protecting Trump.
Not the government. the voters who enabled him and his acolytes. The voters who willingly elected the likes of Jordan, Boebert, Crus, MTG, etc, knowing full well their poisonous behaviour
Stay calm. Just don't be a woman, gay, an immigrant, disabled, anything but rich, trans, left-handed, show the ability to read, believe in science, watch porn, not have a baby, protest, vaccinate, be kind, or the Spider-Man.
Got to say, the United States' legal justice really does seem like a mess when its highest court can be so obviously politicised among party lines. The fact that 4 judges expressed dissent at such an obvious legal decision is evidence of this.
We should continue to be concerned about the ethics of this court. The vote was 5-4 with J. Alito voting in the minority. That he participated in light of recent disclosures is disgraceful. That 4 justices would have granted relief should be of grave concern.
Yet, It's a conservative majority of the court and they denied his request. Lol. Goes to show that the doom and gloom silliness from progressives is overstated.
You Did notice that Most of the conservative judges voted in favor of abject corruption, right? Just because not All of them did doesn’t absolve them of all wrongdoing 🤦🏻♂️
The court is compromised. The four dissenting justices should be impeached. Alito and Thomas are brazen about their corruption. It is time for the court to be expanded to 13 justices with 10 year term limits!
Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, Thomas, and Alito show us that they are truly in the pocket of dictator donny. Thomas and Alito will retire immediately so that Rump and Heritage Foundation can appoint a 24 year old to a lifetime seat. Or maybe he is saving a spot for Matt Gaetz?
It’s going to be a big nothing. I don’t know why he spent so much money on lawyers but since it’s not coming out of his pockets I guess the lawyers’ fees don’t matter either. It will be funny if the fine is less than the legal bills.
In a country where nothing matters,
News like this matters less and less. As a matter of fact, justice is in tatters,
And I feel nothing, I must confess.
He's not getting jail time. If we had a working justice system he would be in prison for his attempted coup, obstruction of justice in the theft of classified documents, or his felony fraud charge in NY.
The justice system is illegitimate when it doesn't treat everyone equally.
Yes, it's for the fraud case in NY. The judge already said he wasn't giving jail time. So it's nothing. It's the illusion of justice. It's meant to make people feel like something is being done without actually doing anything.
It doesn't matter. The judge already said he's going to sentence him with an unconditional discharge, so no jail time, no fine, no probation. The only reason we're talking about it is because he likes any attention he can get.

of no jail time.
The United States will probably have a lying and corrupt criminal as president. Great political level.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whatever happened to the separation of powers?
Win for the rule of law, I guess.

We are about to hand this nation over to a liar and an seditionist. A convicted felon, only to hear him talk about his love of law and order.
Do we really think there is no rule against this because the founders wanted a proven cad to be the head of state?
