And the court could ignore all of that, too, and do whatever the fuck it wants just like it has been doing all along.
Supreme Court doesn’t give a shit about precedent and settled case law…
With the current SCOTUS, appealing to 140 years of history still feels like a gamble. It feels like they’d throw out 1000 years of history and explicit wording from the Bible if it benefited Republicans.
I doubt SCOTUS would touch this on appeal. The logic flies in the face of recent rulings. Even Trump’s AG used a special counsel. It should be quickly overturned by the appellate court
I would hope so but I wouldn’t put money on it.
I’d put money on it. Because it won’t matter. By the time the appeal is heard and new dates come along, one of two things will have happened. Either Trump will have lost and it won’t matter to republicans that he is facing charges, or he will be president and will fire anyone in the justice department needed to get the charges dropped under the label of “official action”.
The bad news is that the 11th circuit has a markedly conservative lean last I checked, and the circuit justice is none other than Clarence Thomas.
Yeah this case is dead.
That’s ok. Hunter Biden’s lawyers are using Canon’s legal precedent for his own needs.

I cannot overemphasize how little I care about Hunter Biden.
I don’t care either but it will show the facists why they cant fuck with the law blindly
You may not care not conservatives care. If Clarence Thomas can write an opinion that will let Cannon’s dismissal stand but deny Hunter Biden’s appeal, he will. The rabid need to do something to (any) Biden may override the desire to let this stand for Trump.
I mean, we’ll see. If the Tribunal of Six decides to play it that way, I think a lot of people in a lot of places are at the very least going to stop following their directions, and may in fact incite some to expose them to high-velocity lead poisoning, because that would be a blatant and undeniable implicit admission of clear and fundamental political bias.
Notice when news sites use Trump photos framed to show his ear bandage prominently.
That shit may end up backfiring on him, especially if he keeps wearing it for weeks after his fucking shaving nick would have healed already. He just looks like a pussy with it.
That bandage looks so stupid. If Trump wanted to look tough, he should’ve have just had some stitches. Instead Trump is a little piss baby.
