It is not the recent immigrants but the power-hungry more land than people states that are destroying America. Do not be surprised that when the subsequent need for soldiers arises for Americans to volunteer to defend this country that, they will not be there. Maybe the Trumps of the world will answer that call? Don’t county on it, I don’t believe that any Trump has ever served nor volunteered to defend this country. The Clinton type, nope they won’t be there either.
We have probably the most corrupt Supreme Court in the history of this county, certainly in recent history. They have done everything possible to give the most corrupt person to ever serve as president a chance to reclaim that office. After all three of them would not be there but for Donald Trump. They don’t deserve to be there.
But the dominant theme emerged when Dreeben stood at the lectern. The justices voiced fear of retribution against a former president, instigated by a new administration and overzealous prosecutors.
That possibility loomed larger than any court concern about the current indictment of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee or about his possible danger to democracy.
Whenever Dreeben tried to return to allegations of fraud, obstruction and other crimes against Trump, conservative justices swept them away.
In one exchange between Dreeben and Justice Samuel Alito regarding the reach of a law punishing conspiracy to defraud the United States, Alito asked, “Would you not agree that that is a peculiarly open-ended statutory prohibition?”
“It’s designed to protect the functions of the United States government,” Dreeben responded. “And it’s difficult to think of a more critical function than the certification of who won the election.”
Responded Alito, with the stance implicitly shared by Roberts: “I’m not, as I said, I’m not discussing the particular facts of this case.” Source
Not so sure if they are that concerned about Trump but their own corrupt, political decisions. I would not put past at least four of them doing what Clarence Thomas does. Take “Gifts” from rich people who sometimes have cases before the court.
Probably the foremost legal scholar in the nation had the following to say:
Harvard constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe on Thursday slammed as “shameful” the U.S. Supreme Court’s arguments over Donald Trump’s “total immunity” appeal in which the justices kicked their decision — and subsequently a potential trial in the former president’s election subversion case — further down the road.
“Much of the argument was quite depressing in the sense that it really amounted to four [conservative] justices — Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas — in search of a lifeline for Donald Trump,” Tribe summarized to MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell.
“That was embarrassing,” Tribe continued. “And much of it seemed to be kind of like a congressional hearing. They didn’t want to talk about this case. They just wanted to spin hypotheticals in the air and almost draft a new law for some kind of immunity.”
At one point in Thursday’s hearings, liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson asked why “isn’t it enough, for the purposes of this case […] to just answer the question of whether all official acts get immunity?”
Tribe said, “Jackson got to the point, ‘All we have to do is do our job, and our job is to decide the case before us, and on the facts before us, there is no plausible case for immunity.’ And if we take a step back, that’s something the court could and should have done in December so we could maybe in closing arguments in this trial.”
Tribe added, “It was a shameful performance by the court, buying the very time that Donald Trump wanted.” Source
