“I do believe the Supreme Court should step in,” Johnson told #FauxNews. “Obviously, this is totally unprecedented.” neither the [#law or not the #crime are unprecedented, plenty of #precedent, it’s just the #criminal committing the crime that’s new].
Speaking on Fox, #MikeJohnson said he knew some of the justices on #SCOTUS personally [I bet he does] & believed that they shared his view that #Trump was a victim of unfair & politically motivated [fair & impartial] prosecutions. He also suggested that the #legal system was biased against Trump & other conservatives [I mean, c’mon, seriously?].
“So I think they’ll set this straight,” #MikeJohnson said, “but it’s going to take a while.”
He added later: “I think this court will do the right thing, because they see the abuse of the system right now.” [I think THIS court will do the wrong thing, they abuse the system constantly]
And if you use those terms, I will usually publically state you are "fucking stupid." If that offends you, then you are exactly what I refer to you as.
Reason so late: SpeakerJohnson prioritized his Dick Pics impchmt over most basic job of Cong
Manu Raju:
At 2:48am House & Sen appropriators released biprtisn $1.2 tril, 1,012-pg bill to fund major fed agencies thru end Sept. Bill— byproduct of deal cut by House-Sen leaders & WH—almost 6 mos late, must be jammed thru Cong by 11:59p to avoid shutdown giving members barely any time to vet
If it was really that easy to toss presidential candidates off the ballot, you'd see Red states tossing out Democratic candidates and Blue states tossing out Republican candidates, en masse. U.S. Supreme Court is never going to let things go down that road.

It’s definitely going to be interesting to watch it play out.
Bottom line?
When we vote, we win. There’s more of us than there are of them. The one sure way of keeping #trump and the #MAGArepublicans from destroying democracy is to vote so overwhelmingly they can’t screw it up.
Logic tells me that if the DOJ had STARTED WITH prosecuting the Jan6 organizers, funders, inciters and Members of Congress, and not the foot soldiers, we wouldn’t still have MAGA election deniers in the House, including in the line of succession.
Why can’t we ignore the Second Amendment as thoroughly as so many are ignoring the Fourteenth?
Someone needs to remind this long-winded jerk (who speaks as though he was just elected president) that:
The United States of America is NOT A THEOCRACY.
Outrageous CORPORATE PROFITS account for the rise in cost of living.
The deficit was exploded by Trump Republican TAX CUTS.
Maybe he should have mentioned support for Ukraine (and by extension a continued free Europe) and not just Israel.
Yes - let’s fix immigration, but never by demonizing immigrants.
His to-do list is boilerplate GOP propaganda, which means cuts for social programs, jeopardy for at-risk people, more wealth and power for white “christian” Republicans.

Republicans’ impeachment inquiry continues to limp along A WhiteHouse spokesperson Ian Sams said Republicans should pick a House speaker instead of picking on the president’s family members
“After rummaging through thousands of pages of a private citizen’s bank records, they have again turned up zero evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden & that’s because there is none” #BidenImpeachment
In anticipation of the next elections in #Virginia #Republicans illegally purged large numbers of voters selectively demographically and racially to limit NoN MAGA voting
Virginia #Republicans do NOT deny that the voter purge is illegal
but it will not be possible to resolve the situation before the elections
MAGAs are also recruiting large numbers of MAGA activists to intimidate voters on voting day.
No Lies Detected! #MAGARepublicans try bullying, death threats to MOCs & their families to force them to vote for #GymJordan
Thankfully the result?
Even less votes than yesterday #JordanFails Round 2
At this point
I don't think there are many 'bribes' involved
All #MAGARepublicans, in the House and in the Senate,
are aware that their 'careers' are linked to #Trump's authoritarianism
they did too much crap...
so
if they want to save their gilded seats
they have to save Trump.
