  • The US supreme court has ruled that former presidents are entitled to some degree of immunity from criminal prosecution, a victory for Donald Trump that erodes the 2020 election subversion case against him and any prospect of a trial before November.
    The court’s MAGA majority found 6-3 that presidents were protected from prosecution for official actions that extended to the “outer perimeter” of his office, but could face charges for unofficial conduct.

      The supreme Court just reversed that principle. Allowing President to be Trump to be totally immune. If he doesn't win....there will be a worse violent coup...or the Supreme Court will reverse the results of the Democratic win. It is extremely important to never let Trump win the Oval Office. About the only thing voters can do. When Trump is NOT elected...surely he can be prosecuted...tho far more difficult now. But this is the best shot for the country. He must not win the election.

So why bribery is now ok among the supremes is also mind bobbling. I worked in Healthcare for 45 years, and we couldn't accept anything from grateful patients beyond a box of donuts or a cake. Thomas has to date accepted over 4 million in undisclosed gifts and not even been reprimanded. They police themselves. SMH

      The thing is I don't think he will. Republicans have for yrs. been working on other things behind the scenes. I know Dems in the house, Senate, Whitehouse saw it. Yet they've continued on "bending over backwards to be fair". Biden should've replaced Republicans as they replace Dems when a Republican takes over. Merrick Garland should've been replaced. Yet Biden is too kind - where's that gotten us. Mitch McConnell stole a court seat. Yet Biden said he won't add to the court. Dems have continued following norms while the other side no longer even follows laws. Can't win being fair against fascism.

The reversal of Chevron last Friday, watching Biden's painful struggles through the debate and the shameful pile on by the liberal media and pundits, it feels like the institutions we have always trusted in - and the very fiber of our society - are unraveling.
    The only way to fight back is to vote in numbers so overwhelming that Mike Johnson and MAGA Republicans cannot dispute and install Trump. We must have the presidency, the House and the Senate in filibuster-proof majority so that SCOTUS can be expanded and pass laws to undo what SCOTUS has done this term. And codify Roe v. Wade. We no longer have SCOTUS to protect us.
    I am so disheartened. Heartbroken and distressed at what's happening to this country that - as a young student alone in the world - I CHOSE as my home. We must put our faith in the decency of the more than half of Americans who love this country and our way of life.
