>*The anger is at the Supreme Court for depriving the American people of the chance for a full public airing of Donald Trump’s attempt to use fraud and trickery to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential victory before voters consider whether to put Trump back in office beginning January 2025*
Yeah, I feel you Jack.

The red team needs to suffer the consequence of the loyalty, which they still hold for such a foul scheme and coverup.

Also an indictment of the Supreme Court: Clarence Thomas accepting millions of dollars in ~~bribes~~gifts from billionaires, not disclosing that income, and not facing any consequences for that obvious corruption.
The Supreme Court asked the district court to determine what was in scope and not in scope of official acts. There’s nothing wrong with that. Despite everyone’s hate fest on Thomas, he did state a number of Trump’s crimes and stated prior cases comparing what could be likely part of an official act and what very likely wasn’t an official act. Even Thomas covered the spectrum and indicated both ends, including stating one that was in his words very likely not an official act that was one of the more damning crimes in the list. People hate on Thomas to suggest a president has actual protections for official duty (and he does). But people kind of ignore it’s only within the scope of official acts (which is again correct). They only real annoyances is Thomas forced the itemization and determination of EVERYTHING Trump did which was a lot of work, wasted time, and forced everyone to grind through the process. Is this good or bad? That’s opinion. I think it’s necessary. Trump’s bad behavior made it necessary to do this process. It’s an abnormal situation forcing an abnormal task. Thomas was correct that a president needs to be protected from prosecution for official duties. This has always been the case. It’s necessary for the function. Wanting Trump to pay for his crimes doesn’t change this. We’re just now in this limbo space where we need to determine what were within official duties and what were not. Once that’s done, the rest is clear cut, and Trump will be prosecuted and might be in prison for the rest of his life. Yes, the judicial hoops are annoying, but they are necessary.

And yet this won’t matter to a lot of Americans, this man should not be able to run for president let alone be in a close race for it.

Just can’t stop thinking about Ginni Thomas and her offer to lease buses to bring people to the riot.

Indicting SCOTUS? About time!
There was an interesting podcast on Cafe with a couple SCOTUS attorneys who follow all this closely. One of them mentioned that something has happened to John Roberts this past year and it’s not good- and he’s now “full in the tank for Maga.” https://cafe.com/insider-podcast/cafe-insider-9-24-could-scotus-decide-the-election-with-dahlia-lithwick-trump-guns-abortion/
Don’t fuck with Jack Smith!!
