The US Supreme Court is addressing several issues that defy logic.
- First, they are actually considering that a president–who has repeatedly threatened revenge–be allowed unrestricted immunity to do whatever he wants to do while in office. Not only would this exonerate him from current charges of inciting a riot, stealing and hiding 300 boxes of classified documents and other indicted offenses but it would also hand him the power to act (like a child) when exacting “retribution” if he’s re-elected. EVEN IF A DEGREE OF IMMUNITY WERE TO BE GRANTED–THIS IS NOT THE PERSON WHO SHOULD EVER HAVE THAT KIND OF POWER. It is the Hitler-psyche that will end the democracy as we know it. Again, check the 1934 German Enabling Act for the Trump blueprint. If you’re reasonable, you’ll see the similarities. We hope that Joe Biden is watching and has plans for Trump if SCOTUS allows total immunity. Maybe Trump will be on the next Musk launch WITHOUT A RETURN TICKET.
- Second, SCOTUS is deliberating as to whether the thousands of armed rioters who pillaged the US Capitol on January 6, 2021 can be charged with obstructing a Federal Process. They, in fact, caused the ENTIRE US CONGRESS TO HIDE IN CLOSETS, UNDER DESKS, HALLWAYS AND OTHER PLACES FOR SEVERAL HOURS WHILE THEY DESTROYED FEDERAL PROPERTY, ASSAULTED THE CAPITOL POLICE GUARD AND THREATENED TO HANG THE VICE PRESIDENT. IN SO DOING THEY DELAYED THE CERTIFICATION OF THE PROPERLY AND FAIRLY ELECTED PRESIDENT FOR SEVERAL HOURS. Does that sound like OBSTRUCTION OF A FEDERAL PROCESS to you? And the US Supreme Court actually must think about that issue. The default of denying obstruction is to exonerate one of the federal indictments against Trump. Now we begin to see how the three justices who perjured themselves when vetted by Congress can compound those lies with more criminal intent.
- Thirdly, on a more humane issue, SCOTUS is considering whether the homeless people can sleep in public places. The Fourth Circuit court (in the western part of the US) has referred the decision to SCOTUS. The problem is that smaller communities do no have the resources to accommodate homelessness with shelters. So they sleep wherever they can. Now SCOTUS is on the verge of evicting them from all public places. Question: where are they expected to go? The big picture answer here is that less than 1% of the American population owns 50% of all wealth. Is it to much to ask that those who have more than an army can spend in a lifetime provide for those who might die of exposure through no fault of their own? Additional taxes are unpopular but so is starvation. And to think that SCOTUS is involved…well. let’s see if we have any humanity left.
