As expected, a three-judge panel as affirmed Judge Tanya Chutkan's historic decision that concluded a president is subject to criminal prosecution. The full opinion posted here.
Since when is Merrick Garland's word not to interfere with anything related to Trump of any value? I couldn't buy a penny candy (back when they really existed) with it!
I was watching the documentary, "Fall of Minneapolis"; which was about how the trial of George Floyd was corrupted because of left leaning activist pressure. I was reminded about the effect that the threat of public rioting has on judges & juries.
From a purely Machiavellian viewpoint, the effect of J6 prosecutions has effectively neutered public demonstrations from the right against rulings by ultra-liberal justices. These justices & juries will essentially have no serious constraints due to public pressure. To be clear, this is just an observation, NOT a call to action..
Given this and the fact that Democrats in the Senate are rubber-stamping extremely liberal ideologues to the federal bench (some for life), it does not bode well for conservatives or right-leaning citizens. Particularly if Democrats are in power for 4 more years. It's very disturbing and the effects are long lasting.
Senator Marsha Blackburn gave a speech on the Senate floor concerning this matter.
Having read the Judicial Conclusion and its basis to void Speech and Debate protections, it is time to go after Chuck Schumer and every other Democrat that stood on the steps of the Supreme Court threatening the Justices - they were threats of violence UNLIKE Trumps speech at the Elipse on J6. The charges are the Weissmann broad spectrum Convict anyone of a NON CRIME with a Bull Shit argument and try to sell a judge and jury. This is a guy who is responsible for the destruction of a large company and 10s of thousands of jobs as well as responsible for the deaths of a number of people who he charged. He tried Enron in public with leaking of negative info to favorably bias media. He poisoned jury pools and judges. His case was THROWN OUT at the SCOTUS but he deceptively anchored himself as famous before the JD quietly dumped his ass! He is a PIG!!
Video and article in this Yahoo News article from Fox News is truly horrible. This former police chief in a suburb of Chicago is talking about how out of control migrant crime is and how impossible it is to deal with it. When police try to arrest them they always fight the police and since they use fake names and fake countries of origin they have no identity so the judges just release them and they’re right back out on the street which is naturally deeply discouraging to the cops. In the video about the migrant crime spree in NYC a police official says they’re “essentially ghost criminals” since they have no identity. This is why it will be impossible to deport them. No country will accept people without a verifiable identity and the migrants know that. We are now just beginning a national nightmare inflicted upon us by the democrats for the sake of political gain. Truly an insanely evil thing for them to have done to our once great nation.

Anyone with half-a-brain who has paid attention knew that the verdict in this Soviet-Show-Trial inside Moscow-on-the-Potomac presided over by Marxists-wearing-black-robes was decided months ago. So, this provides further fodder for the attorneys of former (and future) President Trump to make the anticipated appeal directly to SCOTUS. Then, all patriots can do is pray, first, that they accept the writ of certiorari and, second, that Roberts grows a spine (I could use the vernacular here but I'll keep it G-rated) and agrees with the solid conservative majority. Only God knows how this will develop.
Nice to see Tucker hitting back so hard against our despicably evil ruling class. Are we already in WW3? “Moscow says it was an assassination attempt on President Putin.” Time is moving faster and faster. No denying that.
“Tucker Carlson to interview Vladimir Putin after Biden interference claims.” (5 min)
I highly recommend listening to Prof John Mearsheimer on Ukraine and Dr Jeffrey Sachs on Israel, Hamas, Gaza and America’s involvement in this. These are the things Tucker will be talking about with Putin. No doubt they’ll also talk about how close we are to WW3.

John Anderson interviews Prof. John Mearsheimer. Jan 10, 2024
I totally disagree with Dr. Sachs and his extreme hatred and biased slant of the Israeli/Netanyahu government. His disdain is so thick that it drips from every single one of his pores. It's obvious he has zero empathyfor the so-called "extreme right-wing religious" Israeli government (watch his skewed face as he can barely stand to spit out those words!). First, there is NO such country as "Palestine." Never has been. Second, President Trump moved and recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital. To tell them that they now must split it and give half to terrorists hardly seems the right thing to do. In all of the mideast, the tiny sliver of land that Israel has is no more than a drop of water in a huge bucket. So, why is it that they're the ones who, after doing battle to gain back that which is rightfully theirs, is forced by the international community to give it up so that thugs, like Hamas, Hezbollah, etc., can continue to harrass, bomb, and, yes, even murder them?! The Israelis pulled out of the Gaza strip in 1987 and left them to govern themselves. The people voted for Hamas to become the government, much to the people's later regret, as they are brutal and cruel. There hasn't been another election since. Interestingly, not one of the surrounding Arab countries will take in a Palestinian. No one wants that baggage, which includes the decades of Hamas brainwashing, Jewish hatred, and propaganda. Israel has been under constant attacks from Gaza, but October 7th was rightfully the final straw. I seriously doubt that Dr. Sachs would react any differently if the same thing occurred to his family, neighbors, and fellow countrymen! Come to think of it, it has! We still have American citizens who are being held captive. But, that's no sweat off of Dr. Sach's brow!
You’re overlooking the fact that most of the world agrees with what Jeffrey Sachs is saying. You need to check out the videos, seen online globally, of what Israel, with America’s support, has done to Gaza. Something like a thousand children have lost limbs from the constant bombing and we’ll never know how many were buried alive in the rubble of the collapsed buildings. Your belief that Israel has a right to do this to the Palestinians because of Oct 7 is deluded and rejected by the world. And respect for America for enabling this has been destroyed. Never again will we be able to talk about human rights to other countries.
What can you say about a government that wages war and commits war crimes on a massive scale using agents in civilian dress and embedded for cover in the civilian population? What can you say about a government that commits acts that they know to an absolute certainty will result in a devastating retaliation, yet builds no civilian shelters? Hamas owns all the damage done to the citizens it purports to represent. Meanwhile the arms dealers who run it live comfortably poolside in Qatar.
“Hamas owns all the damage done to the citizens it purports to represent.”
When people see Israel dropping 2,000 pound bombs supplied by America on densely populated Gaza they don’t say it’s terrible what Hamas is doing to the Palestinians. All things are now global in our always online global civilization and what most people globally see when they go online is Israel and America engaging in genocide against the Palestinians and trying to sugar coat it by saying it’s all the fault of Hamas, they own it all. That’s simply absurd.
So you walk into a bar and take a big swing at the first patron you meet. He gets up off the floor and, along with all his friends, beats the living crap out of you. Your complaint would be the asymmetry of the beating?
You started it. It was entirely predictable that there would be a major violent response. You made no effort to prepare for the unsurprising beat down you received. And you complain?
Expanding the metaphoric narrative, the key fact is that no preparations were made to protect the Gazan population. It's because you didn't care. Indeed you thought it would be useful PR for thousands of Gazans to die.
Unfortunately, after 16 prior cease fires were broken, this time the bar crowd is playing for keeps.
Why was Israel’s border with Gaza so defenseless on Oct 7 when Hamas launched their deadly attack? Because the troops that were supposed to be guarding the border were redeployed to the West Bank to help Israeli settlers steal land from the Palestinians.
“How could the catastrophe on 7 October, which claimed the lives of at least 1,400 Israelis and has left 220 as hostages of Hamas, have happened? How could Israel lose control, over the course of a few hours, of an entire swath of its sovereign territory, including twenty-two kibbutzim and other villages? Beyond the obvious intelligence failure, one reason is that a good portion of the troops in the enlarged division that was meant to be guarding the Gaza border had been redeployed to keep order and protect an ever-expanding archipelago of tiny, often unauthorized West Bank settlements and roads leading to them. The sole purpose of these outposts was to establish a de facto Jewish presence in the West Bank and hence restrict the actions available to future Israeli governments. Objections and warnings by the defence establishment that the military and security services were overstretched, that the army no longer had the requisite forces or the time to train soldiers properly, were dismissed as the defeatism of an old and tired secular elite, by a growing chorus of hyper-patriotic, right-wing zealots, people often with little or no practical military experience.”
“A Generation of Misguided Policy in Israel.”
For more than a generation, defense policy and much else has been increasingly determined by the dictates of Israel’s religious settler lobby and its Messianic visions.
I often wonder if this Palestinian boy and his beloved cat in Gaza are still alive. This video is from 3 months ago. Many have been killed by Israeli bombing since then. Glenn Greenwald says you’d have to go back to WW11 with the devastated cities in Germany and Japan to see this kind of destruction. Israel has become demonic. Iran calls America the “Great Satan” and Israel the “Little Satan.” After seeing how Israel seems to be in charge of our foreign policy though perhaps they’ll start calling Israel the “Great Satan” and America the “Little Satan.” A classic case of the tail wagging the dog. This is not a good look globally for America. And most of the world agrees with Sachs.
“Child in Gaza talks about his cat being frightened by war.” (2 min)
The flaw in your reasoning is the belief that America is the world’s global superpower so the world is just going to have to accept our version of reality and learn to live with it. Even if we can somehow avoid WW3 with our ever deepening involvement in Middle East wars there is still the fact that Israel is already being seen as a pariah state and shunned globally and respect for America has disintegrated globally which is why more and more countries are abandoning America and joining BRICS. Plus America itself is disintegrating. I believe America has already ceased to exist as a country internally which is why it’s so rapidly unraveling externally. This is just not working at all. Only AI can save our sinking ship. We will soon see about that.

Curious that those protesting in front of the Supreme Court Justices homes, after Dobbs, weren't rounded up and treated like the J6ers.
And the moon is made out of cheese.
Rules for thee, but not for me!
What a cluster of self-promoting #itches.
What is next-the indictment of a Ham sandwich?
Only in America-land of the free-could a person be treated with such ill will by the court system.
The Supreme Court should be a 9-0 in the Colorado decision. If not it's political!
I'll vote for Trump for a third time. And the more the system screws with him, the more determined I am to vote for him.
Crooked Hillary got away with everything and the FBI director Comey helped her.
Trump should have gone after her.
Some country that hacked her server has her emails. I wish they would come forward.
