Merchan actually made rulings and they were largely upheld. they had to change the law to even bring the case to the courts. what will the narrative be when that is also appealed and expunged? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This case wasn’t going to be heard before the election due to a Trump appointed judge. This will allow SC to appeal to the 11th circuit who has been pretty critical of Cannon and I’m sure the SC will also request to recuse Cannon from the case. I think, Shoes, shoes where’s my shoes Walls closing in, lefty? ***** ty policies and witch hunts are the Dems demise. Deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 25 minutes ago, Backintheday544 said: Tell that to the dude who died. Doesn’t mean he’s a Dem. There’s plenty of reasons a Republican gun owner would shoot at Trump. Republicans don’t like pedophiles and a bunch of court documents released with Trump being named a pedo. Republicans like Project 2025 and Trump tried to disavow it. theres plenty of reasons a Republican would be mad at Trump. All of these are way too speculative. He was unusual. A bullied introvert. Bright but incredibly socially awkward, and an easy target for high school bullies. Disaffected, angry, heading down a loser path (why no college if he was smart?), finding some kind of solace in guns like so many other kids - an AR-15 as the great equalizer. I'm guessing we'll find out it started with an obsession with video games first-person shooters and then to the real thing. This is a sickness in society with teenage boys. Looking for a target. Could have been his school like so many others. But why not something bigger. Really, I think that's all there is here. Yes, I may be proved wrong, but I doubt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like Dems are doing pretty good.

The special counsel was literally only to avoid potential perceived bias not that anyone cared, leave it to Cannon to dismiss the case that literally took place after he left office and lost the immunity this decision gave him. The SC office(s) did nothing to quell the notion of bias, if anything, it exacerbated those feelings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is probably true as a public opinion matter (and is obviously true as it relates to Republicans). But as a legal matter, the AG still had ultimate authority over Smith's decisions. He was a "special counsel," not the old "independent counsel." The decision is flat wrong as a legal matter given how this has always been interpreted, until Clarence Thomas's opinion (not the majority) a couple weeks ago gave her cover to do this. Another reason Thomas should have recused. Edited July 15 by The Frankish Reich 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
