      We can't wait until Trump calls for another 2025 Insurrection & say, "Oh, what happened, what does he mean, is that legal, & let's get a lawyer?"
      We literally accomplished nothing with these, "Trial's and Trump's Judges," for the past 4 years for, "NOTHING!" Trump appeals to SCOTUS and
      SCOTUS can never let Trump go to jail or be convicted...NEVER! It is up our Democratic President Biden to run them out of town right?
      Now or never Joey! We have been at a, "State of War with these Red States since the Jauary 6, 2021 Insurrection!"

It makes no sense, its horrible if someone else does it but you can do it cause your suddenly feel its a just cause. The other side is excited it happened except NONE of you have actually read the ruling. Presidents have immunity in their core constitutional duties and the presumption, not the actual right, of immunity for official actions. Unoffocial actions are also called out as not being legal. To be clear, BOTH sides systems should be removed and we start a new one. Both sides have failed the American people.

      Sen. Sheldon is definitely one of the good guys. I'm not American or aligned to any political movement. If I were to pick a winner here, it's MAGA. If I were to pick a loser, It's America. The cause of the problem was too much pride. Too much belief in the greatness of America and it's institutions. Too much faith in those in power to do the right thing, eventually. Now it's too late. MAGA has taken this pride, this faith and they have turkey slapped the entire nation with it. As I understand it now, the only way out is to reform SCOTUS. The only way to reform SCOTUS is for the Dems to win the election in a landslide thus granting them full control of all of the legislative tools required to reform SCOTUS. We know from how close the polls are that a landslide victory is unlikely. We know from MAGA that they would not accept a dems election win. So the goose is cooked. A full on turkey slap followed by a cooked goose.

      ​@@virtuallycasey6121MAGA is only 1/6 the population. Dems are 1/3, GOP used to be 1/3 (MAGA has lost the moderate conservative vote) & independents are 1/3. Don't forget Trump lost the popular vote in 2016. The electoral college favors the GOP, & they did lots of gerrymandering in the 1990s, & all this together means MAGAts aren't as numerous as they like to think.
      In most presidential elections about 40% of us vote. That doubled MAGA's voting power in 2016. In 2020 60% of us turned out to vote; more than usual because we were scared Trump might win.
      Well, we're scared spitless now.
      We need a big turnout in Nov.
      FWIW, SCOTUS itself isn't codified in the constitution, but to change it we need to get rid of the MAGA majority in the house. To crush this SCOTUS we need a blue wave that'll take both houses, & the presidency.

Not terribly surprised when Thomas has enjoyed millions in gifts and vacations, his wife supporting a treasonous xpresident, a convicted felon and sexual abuser? Allito’s wife hanging the flag upside down displaying her support of tyranny, Another example of a court that has refused an ethics code in favor of doing whatever they want for whomever they want.

    How is it that a person that rises to the Supreme Court can blatantly and repeatedly violate their oath to defend and uphold the constitution, and also violate their oath to be impartial regarding their rulings on the rich and the poor, and not be held accountable to the citizens of this country????
    Why are we obligated to follow the rulings of a court where these justices have disqualified themselves?? And why are we to accept their interpretation of article 3 of the 14th amendment. Trump clearly should not be on the ballot and I think any fourth grader reading article 3 of the 14th would agree. So Trump has disqualified himself from running for office. Samuel Alito, Clarence, Thomas, and for being complicit, John Roberts have all disqualified themselves. In my mind, the DOJ, if it’s to uphold justice, should March into the Supreme Court and remove or arrest these three individuals pending trial for treason or for violating their oaths to 🇺🇸!!
    November is a hell of a long time to wait for America to start seeing some justice.
    If Trump can delay his trial inevitably then why can’t we delay the election until his trials begin… I am half serious and half kidding here.
