The answer is simple. The court is corrupt. https://t.co/iNqRWHvExj— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) February 29, 2024
Our thoughts are with our Democrat colleagues in the Senate on the retirement of their Co-Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (D-Ukraine).No need to wait till November… Senate Republicans should IMMEDIATELY elect a *Republican* Minority Leader.— House Freedom Caucus (@freedomcaucus) February 28, 2024
Surprise, surprise. Looking like the U.S. Supreme Court is just another partisan institution.— Stuart Rothenberg (@StuPolitics) February 28, 2024
My view of the SCOTUS action: if the trial is delayed until after November, we will see THE LARGEST BLUE WAVE IN HISTORY.If November becomes a referendum on whether Trump faces justice, then Democrats will absolutely flip the House, keep the White House and expand the Senate. https://t.co/BcRlMrJIdJ— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) February 29, 2024
That seems like wish-casting, but I'd love for it to be true. If we can only get the MSM to report on it, like it actually is, it might kinda happen.
I want down the crazy hole on this and MAGA is weird. They think anyone could have moved the judges from circuits to Supreme. They say the tax cuts were for the rich. He didn't pass any real legislation to help the people which was his job. He supported wars and too much spending. What til the fins their new guy? We need to teach civics again. The amount of people that don't understand how compromise is how you get bills and their fascinated with supporting bills that will never go anywhere and die but the guy tried and doesn't improve their lives so you blame the other side and not your guys for not compromising is wild.
The way I look at it is it wouldn't surprise me if it happens. The special elections since Dobbs for one, the fact that Trump is already a loser, and that a lot of the GOP candidates are just weirdos now.

Nobody is going to remember this guy. He threw his life away for stupid stunt that isn't going to move the needle on this issue one micron. Oh wait -- it's going to move the needle an iota in the direction of the pro-Israel side because now there is one less pro-Hamas person on earth. What an idiot.
Biden is 3 1/2 years older in case you haven’t heard. Trump: People who don't speak languages. We have languages coming in to our country, nobody that speaks those languages. They're truly foreign languages. Nobody speaks them pic.twitter.com/IzRKM5TOue— Acyn (@Acyn) February 29, 2024 Here’s a fun thought experiment…you know how we’ve noted that Trump has literally no sense of humor and how that’s a sign of there being something wrong with him? Or how he plainly doesn’t read and possibly can’t read at a normal level? How none of us could imagine him being moved by a piece of music or a painting or a movie? How he hates animals? Like, there are lots of ways to point out that he’s a suboptimal human being that have nothing to do with his policies. Im going in a completely different direction, but imagine Donald J Trump thinking, I should learn a foreign language, to enhance my understanding of another culture. Of course Trump would never ever do something like that.

I guess I feel guilty now This is a family in crisis and the recreational cruelty I see on social media needs to be out of bounds.I know the impact this has on children. I'm calling for restraint because cruelty has substantial collateral damage.We can't ever forget that they didn't sign up for this. https://t.co/SAbFMYsOCk— John Fetterman (@JohnFetterman) February 28, 2024

The intersection of an authoritarian political movement willing to use the legal system for its own ends, with a legal system trying to avoid controversy for the sake of the system's credibility and legitimacy, can easily be a recipe for authoritarian success.— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) February 29, 2024
