News Trump: Mar-a-Lago just raided by FBI

aaaannnnnndddd, there still hasn’t been a penalty issued for all this poor conduct to literally anyone.

Yeah, it's fucking horseshit.

If you held a clearance, you know this is absolute BS that this can go on for so long when he got caught dead to rights. This is NOT American justice!

Our Justice system and current leadership is not prepared to take the action required to end this problem.

But he's the PRESIDENT, FFS...he's above ALL laws.

And the people who knowingly hauled around these documents?

And the people who knowingly hauled around these documents?

Just doing what their president ordered...The President, being above the law, cannot give an illegal order. Don't believe me? Just ask the MAGA.

An alternate hypothesis is that Trump has a pet judge in charge of this case, one who is more than willing to throw sand in the gears of justice for The Donald. Justice delayed is justice denied. Trouble is an appeal by the government would probably just add more delay.

To deal with a conniving F like Trump.

To deal with a conniving F like Trump.

Crooks like Trump are a dime a dozen. Having a major political party back the criminal, with the active support of a corrupted judiciary, is something we haven't seen since the 19th century.

Well, Cannon just crossed a line. Time for her to be removed. She doesn't think witnesses in a classified documents case should be shielded. She's a total incompetent way out of her league.

Yeah, she’s being far too obvious.

Yeah, she’s being far too obvious.

It does seem at some point there's going to have to be an attempt to remove her from the case. I wonder when that will be.

Not Mar a Lago related, but this SCOTUS hearing is all but over.

Colorado is gonna get overturned. So yes, Jefferson Davis' corpse could still become POTUS.

I think everyone predicted this would happen. It's not the plain meaning of the law but we all knew SCOTUS was going to Calvinball their way to that decision.

Hopefully sooner than later.

Yep, I’m listening as well.

 

[hal2kilo]

Yep, I’m listening as well.

Pretty obvious where this is going. Not fond of the litigator's arguments for the Colorado side so far.

Add 14s3 to the emoluments clause as "parts of the constitution that aren't worth the ink it took to write them down".

Looks like Smith is sticking the first wedge in.

Why am I hearing chatter that even the liberal justices are going to side with Calvinball?

People have floated the idea of some sort of grand bargain here where the liberal justices go along with Calvinball here so that the conservative justices side with them on Trump's insane immunity claim. No idea if that's true, of course, but it's at least plausible.

The fact that there are even rumors/whispers that a deal is necessary to decide that someone is not above the law tells me that our experiment is all but over.

I agree that it is absolutely insane that there even needs to be a debate over if the president can commit unlimited crimes. Democrats need to take the corruption of the court far, far more seriously than they are.

Seems to me that trusting conservative justices to hold up their end of the bargain would be foolish.
