Thats just not how law works.

Sorry


That's exactly how the law works, nothing to be sorry about.

If you think it's different and the legislative branch decides on judicial cases, enlighten us and post more about it.


Due process.

Adversarial process.

Evidence

Just to name a few things.

Yah, looks like you understand it, I was gonna come back and explain that having lawyers and getting evidence (discovery), and filing appeals all the way up to the supremes is due process.

You already get it.

How would he know that?

Here is the ruling

supreme ruling

Nobody knows how they all voted.



Did anyone even really expect the SCOTUS to say -- "Yeah sure Jack -- whatever you want".



Every Dem supporter walking around expected it.

Take a look at what pretty much every Dem supporter on any social media platform is saying.
They expect Trump to be removed from ballots in all 50 states.

They expect Trump to be finished very soon.
I don’t need to speak for them, they are showing their delusions very clearly by themselves.

Ah, Yes.

Then there is the interpretation.

I read an article -- then I read the interpretation on here. Imagination comes to mind.

Both sides are weighing the outcome -- the way they want it to go. No one knows what the courts/judges will decide.

Especially as complicated and as important as decisions made on the 91 charges Trump faces in his four indictments.

All the media was frothing at the mouth in anticipation of the "Great Jack Smith" getting what he wanted from SCOTUS.

In fact, ABC-CBS-NBC all said the Supreme Court had "Agreed" to take up Jack Smith's request.

Fortunately, in the real world, what Democrats/Left want, think, or believe, means less, as time passes!

Americans reduced Democrats influence in the Supreme Court, 7 years ago.

Americans reduced Democrats influence in Congress in November 2022.

In 12 months, Democrats influence will be plummeting, due to Biden being made a lame duck.

Jack Smith is so desperate to start President Trump's "insurrection" trial BEFORE SUPER TUESDAY, he violated Judge Tanya Chutkan's order to "Pause" the trial preparations.

Hopefully the Appeals Court will give rabid Special Counsel Smith a "spanking" for violating the judge's direct order.

OFFICIAL REQUEST FILED by Trump attorneys...

Lawyers for former President Donald J. Trump asked an appeals court in Washington on Saturday night to toss a federal indictment accusing him of plotting to overturn the 2020 election, arguing that he was immune to the charges because they arose from actions he had taken while he was in the White House.

The weekend filing to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit was the latest salvo in a long-running and crucial battle between Mr. Trump and the special counsel, Jack Smith, over whether the former president enjoys immunity to the election interference charges.

The fight over immunity has now touched all three levels of the federal court system, including the Supreme Court, which on Friday declined Mr. Smith’s request to intervene and hear the case before the appeals court.

The ultimate resolution of the issue will have a significant effect not only on the overall viability of the election interference case, but also on whether a trial on the charges is postponed until the heart of the 2024 campaign — or even until after the election.

At that point, if Mr. Trump wins the presidency, he could order the charges to be dropped.

In a 55-page brief to a three-judge panel of the court, D. John Sauer, a lawyer who has been handling appeals for Mr. Trump, argued that under the Constitution, judges cannot hold the president accountable for any acts undertaken while in office.

“Under our system of separated powers, the judicial branch cannot sit in judgment over a president’s official acts,” Mr. Sauer wrote, adding, “That doctrine is not controversial.”

It won't go that far. The SC will dismiss the case as unconstitutional.


As per the constitution, a president can be charged with crimes committed while in office by the judicial department AFTER an impeachment and CONVICTION by congress.

Without that...they got nothing.

The SC doesn't even have to address immunity.

Merry Christmas all!! (yeah I said it so sue me)


I am going to get this off my chest and be done with it. To clarify my above post...

We have three branches of government......executive, judicial and legislative.

This is simply nothing other than the judicial branch trying to bypass the legislative branch and that won't fly. These questions are not questions to be answered by the supreme court or any court for that matter...these are questions that should be decided by the legislative branch, congress, through impeachment and a senate trial.

It's worked all these years, until people let their blind hatred over rule their common sense.

I still have some faith in the system, and someday people will see it for what it is...political persecution. Attempting to bypass the legislative branch through the judicial branch leaves me to arrive at no other logical conclusion.

The problem is, when corruption via a combined effort from members across all three branches and between all levels of government is the norm, it's no longer about the people the government was created to serve. In fact, I doubt anyone could point to ANY government agency, just one, and prove there is no corruption, no participation of political ideology protecting only one side of the isle etc. The level of corruption and dysfunction is systemic at this point and only getting more more so. It's not only a 'Western' issue, it's all across the world.

Greed is the number one corruptor imho. And there are lots of greedy humans.

You know honestly the issue the right has is the way you people voting for them are.

I read on here when the Supreme Court hearing stopped how it was all nothing and over and now it looks like Trump might hang for treason.

FYI Refresher...

NOT ONCE has Donald Trump said the 2020 election was fair, and he legitimately lost. Quite the contrary...

I was doing my duty as President to expose and further investigate a Rigged and Stolen Election.

It was my obligation to do so, and the proof found is voluminous and irrefutable,” the former president wrote in a Truth Social post Sunday morning.

“Therefore, among other reasons, of course I am entitled to IMMUNITY.

Satan-controlled mainstream media says "anonymous witnesses" say President Trump admitted that he lost fair and square, which means the Jan 6th protest and riot was not legitimate! Trump should be jailed immediately.

THE PROBLEM: None of these "witnesses" have been named, or found, in order to testify.

The News Media has the nerve to be "upset" because Donald Trump vows to make them pay for making up shi't about him and his family. There are Millions of us who hope we are able to help President Trump destroy Satan's media army!

Amazing how there is no due process for the timing of arrests but there is when it comes to trial time lines. Suddenly they want to adhere to the Constitution and make sure there is a speedy trial.

Link


Prosecutors have repeatedly argued against Trump's request for a delay, saying that it is in the public's best interest to conduct a speedy trial. Cannon, a Trump appointee, has agreed to revisit the trial schedule in March, potentially delaying prosecution until after the 2024 election. Tuesday's filing from Smith served as a reminder about the current trial timeline—such reports are required under the Speedy Trial Act, read the document.


You have the right to a speedy trial. This does not mean it has to be. It is there to protect the defendant and not the prosecution. Smith is laughable.
