Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
Majority of people are smart enough to see that this is politically timed lawfare. Clearly you 2 aren’t one of them. 1 or 2 cases might be lawfare. The documents case and the cases around his attempts to STEAL THE 2020 ELECTION are absolutely worth pursuing. Maybe if his daddy hadn't bailed him out...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
Hey, I don't disagree at all that justices are selected at the start based on their perceived ideology/jurisprudence leaning - of course they are. Hence why you get different justices depending on the President picking them. But once they're there, barring an impeachment and removal (only ever been...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
The Colorado case was simple and straightforward. I told you months before that ruling that it was going to be 9-0 but you wanted to believe the folks who were so anti-Trump that they could contort any law in any way to block him. In addition, they had to proceed quickly on that one because after C...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
Like we already talked about before, this isn't a yes/no, magic 8-ball decision. They're writing stuff that will impact the Presidency for the next 100 years or more. Once it got to this level, it was more than about just Trump. If Smith wanted something quick, he shouldn't have appealed in this wa...

Strawmen stuff again when you have trouble debating the question at hand. Starting to be a trend with you.

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
Again, if there was real evidence of corruption (i.e. a judge changing a vote to suit a benefactor) then it would be prosecuted, both politically (impeachment) and legally (prosecution). All you have is innuendo, biased perceptions, and political talking points. Thomas, for all of his faults, is ac...

Well, if you think so.

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
They granted cert because Smith made it a big deal to petition the Court and to refuse such a big case and a public ask like that would've generated probably even more howling from the left. Basically, it was too big of a deal to ignore. Taking a couple of months (they'll probably decide in June) i...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
It didn't even need to be at SCOTUS right now, that was Smith trying to fast track it rather than follow the normal route. Once he petitioned them to take it up I can't see them not taking it. With that said, this is bigger than Trump, so it's going to need a little thought in this. It's not someth...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
Or, in this case, go over what Trump is accused of and going action by action as to whether it is covered by official duty or not. There isn't a blanket decision one way or the other that addresses this. That's why SCOTUS will probably remand it back to the district court to sort through the detail...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
It's not an all or nothing thing. Clearly Trump's view of absolute immunity is silly and it's not being realistically debated by anyone other than Trump. So the question does come down to what's covered and what isn't covered. The Constitution, in broad terms, lays out what the President's duties a...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
The text of the Constitution broadly lists out what the President does. Those things would presumably be protected then. If he does other thing outside of that, then they wouldn't be protected. It also brings up the question then of suing the President specifically or suing the government as a whol...

Re: 2024 SCOTUS Rulings Thread
I'm curious where any of this concern over originalist principles over Presidential immunity comes from? I didn't hear a lot of backtracking or cognitive dissonance in last week's SCOTUS hearing. It's pretty clear that Trump's laughable/troubling idea of complete immunity has no chance of standing,...

I disagree, having watched an M-16 blow right through a telephone pole at close range. They would do that in basic because at the time there was still a lot of people spreading the word that the rifle jammed easily and was unreliable in combat. According to the Drills the problem was not the M-16 i...

At some point occupying a public space crosses the legal line too. I'm all for protests, but there are legal and illegal ways to do it. Want a rally? Get a permit. Want to set up in some public space and make it inaccessible to others? Probably illegal. If you don't leave after repeated asks to lea...
