Let's face it: The Supreme Court is in the bag for the Trump party. The idea that it needs to consider whether the president is totally above the law is beyond bonkers.
Even assuming (as I do) that the court rules that presidents can't (for example) order a hit team to kill political opponents, this is the delay Trump and his fellow fascists wanted.
For now, he is damn near above the law. Disgusting, terrifying.

This is simply absurd, but given all the other things the GOP has gotten away with, not surprising.
It's easy to blame Republicans in all of this, but that's kind of like blaming the other team for scoring when you leave your own goal unattended.
@cpep
sure, because only the Dems can be moral and follow laws and shit so it must be their fault somehow.
Either way it goes, this is going to be one of the cases that define our generation.
@RevLindsay @dangillmor Allow me to suggest sending letters a little closer to home.
Or, if not home, the exclusive places when they hang out. I believe this is Brett Kavanaugh’s country club.
@RevLindsay @dangillmor I like this idea! If you write them right now, here’s a link where to send them.
Additionally, just thinking out loud…
-some coordinated effort would be nice. All sent within a particular week. Something like that.
-some webmaster could quickly generate a website for a uniform letter which could be printed for the sender to sign then send.
Thinking out loud. Here’s their address..
@RevLindsay And call. Call any and every office. Esp if you have Republican reps. Explain to the staffer that answers the phone THEY are the enablers. They keep the offices running. Call them “silent Germans”. Call your local GOP org. I did that one day and asked why they were Racists. I. GOT. ANSWERS. Make them own it.
We need to get Loud and Honest. We need bumper stickers that say Republican = Racist.
Nixon didn't resign until he had a deal for a pardon.
@dangillmor I really want to see the MAGAts confronted with an appropriate reframing of the argument.
"So you're saying it should be legal for the current sitting president to assassinate enough Republican members of Congress to deny them a quorum for impeachment and then move on to kill Trump and all the Conservative justices on SCOTUS? And because it's all legal, you would have zero problem with it?"
