Democrats got some bad news from the Supreme Court.
Liberals didn’t handle it well.
And Brett Kavanaugh left Rachel Maddow a quivering wreck with this huge defeat.
The Supreme Court agreed to hear Donald Trump’s presidential immunity appeal in Jack Smith’s January 6 trial.
With oral arguments slated for April 22 it means there is almost no chance to get this trial onto the schedule before the 2024 election.
The charges against Donald Trump were bogus as Smith used a financial accounting law to claim Trump obstructed an official proceeding.
Smith is also bending the conspiracy to defraud the United States statute as the Court’s repeatedly ruled that for fraud to take place, the accused needs to have cheated a victim out of money or property.
But the legitimacy of the charges doesn’t matter to the left.
What matters is forcing Trump into a courtroom before Election Day and winning a guilty verdict in the hopes that will turn voters against Trump.
And Democrats viewed the January 6 case as their silver bullet.
An Obama judge oversaw the case and Smith would pull his jury from a pool of residents where 95 percent voted against Trump.
Trump would stand a better chance of receiving a fair trial in Stalin’s Russia.
When the news about the Supreme Court’s ruling came down Rachel Maddow melted down on live TV.
Democrats control every other institution in America and they expect the Court to be on board with their political project of keeping Trump out of power.
When the Supreme Court acted like a collection of actual justices and sought to sort out a novel political question, Maddow claimed they were Trump stooges.
“The cravenness of the court is evident in what they are doing with the pacing here. You know, putting this off for seven weeks and sitting on it for two weeks for no reason. Obviously, pushing all of the cases that they can push to a point where Trump will be standing for election before any of us have heard the verdicts in any of those cases. Got it. It is the timing. But it is also the idea that the immunity thing is an open question. Is presidential immunity an open question?”
Maddow and her fellow liberals have no one to blame but Biden and his weaponized Justice Department.
January 6 was more than three years ago.
The DOJ could have prosecuted Trump at any time.
However, Garland and liberal prosecutors wanted to time the indictments for maximum political effect and put Trump on trial in the middle of the election.
Joe Biden admitted the plan was to convict Trump in court before the election in a strategic leak to POLITICO.
“In recent weeks, President Biden has grumbled to aides and advisers that had Garland moved sooner in his investigation into former President Donald Trump’s election interference, a trial may already be underway or even have concluded, according to two people granted anonymity to discuss private matters,” POLITICO reported.
But Joe Biden and his Department of Justice played politics from the start on this case and got burnt.
