Democratic lawmakers are sounding the alarm over what they see as conservative justices and judges tipping the scales in favor of former President Trump in two federal cases.
The two cases accuse the former president of attempting to subvert the 2020 election and obstructing justice related to his handling of classified documents.
Some Democratic senators suggest conservative justices on the Supreme Court are playing politics by slow-walking special counsel Jack Smith’s case related to the events of Jan. 6, 2021, so that there’s no chance of it reaching a verdict before Election Day.
And they are perplexed that District Judge Aileen Cannon has let Smith’s case on Trump’s handling of classified documents get bogged down in complex and arcane legal arguments over the Presidential Records Act, which prosecutors say has nothing to do with the case.
Is it almost like decades of choosing ratchet theory and not pushing hard left when you have the opportunities has actual consequences?
Horrible time to realise this.
Imagine how many MAGA people wouldn’t be paying attention to politics if weed was legal for recreational use nation wide, or if trans politics had have been introduced in an earlier period, or if billionaires like Musk and Murdoch weren’t always sided with and given corporate welfare.
Now is a terrible time to learn this lesson, literally the worst.
They still didn’t learn. They are personally conservative and would rather burn it all down than let progressive policy become normalized
