#scotus has a twisted view of which criminal defendants deserve a day in court.

Anyone, who thought that the #Insurrectionist6 would protect we the people, hasn’t been paying attention. They weren’t put on #SCOTUS to do the right thing by we the people. The billionaires’ Federalist Society put them on the bench to protect their paymasters at our expense.
BREAKING: The US Supreme Court agrees to hear Trump's "immunity" case. Crucially, this keeps the stay in place – lessening the likelihood of a Trial beginning before the election.
Anything less than a highly-expedited ruling against Trump, leaving all claims of immunity forever DOA and written in stone, would scream of profound corruption.

The Court: Mr Trump, you owe the state $464 million.
TFG: I'll pay $100 million.
The Court: You owe $464 million.
TFG: We can just call it $100 million.
The Court: It's $464 million.
TFG: The numbers look the same to me.
The Court: You do realize that this is what got you into this problem in the first place...
...don't you?
With the GOP's betrayal of #Ukraine, might Putin not even wait to complete annexation of Ukraine before moving on to invade Moldova?

Sigh. #twitter used to be a place I could follow even my local high school football team play by play. Get police bulletins explaining the helicopter hovering. See where in Tehran the next protest against the mullahs was planned. Now all gone, or drowned in bots, scammers, and Nazis.
Great as CoSo is for respectful conversation it doesn't replace so many of Twitter's former uses.
Well I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you hacked me, and Putin he's got you
Babe
But your emails
But your emails
They say your hate won't build the wall
Before it's up you're gonna take a fall
They got ladders
They got ladders
You got anger. You got hate.
But I got you, to take the bait.
So let them say your tie's too long
'Cause I don't care, against you how can I lose?
Then put your tiny hand in mine
There ain't no law or custom you won't break
Babe
But your emails

What am I missing? Protest voters in the Democratic Party gave us the disaster that was GW Bush instead of Al Gore. The protest vote gave us the #TFG instead of Hillary Clinton. End result is the GOP stacked the courts with the frightwing hacks who are taking away our freedoms. Roe would still be in place instead of being overturned.
Our country was warned in 2016 about the GOP’s fascist tilt, but the corporate media monopolies were telling us that people were overreacting or that we shouldn’t take “him” literally or he was joking. It’s flashing red lights again, and the media keeps on worrying about Democrats in disarray and other bullshyt distractions.
Notice that Trump's attorneys are not working to prove that he is not guilty as charged.
Instead, they are working to maneuver trial dates to beyond election day in the hopes that Trump will be re-elected and have his new, hand-picked attorney general end the federal cases against him. So...
...instead of practicing law, these attorneys are just serving as appointment secretaries for a criminal who knows he is guilty as charged?
