LIVE: Trump Trial ACCELERATES as Trump DETERIORATES | Legal AF
Переглядів 658,932
День томуBen Meiselas and Michael Popok are back with a new episode of the weekend edition of the top-rated Legal AF podcast. On this episode, they debate/discuss: whether the jury is ready to convict after just the first 2 weeks of the Trump NY criminal trial; the powerful impact of Judge Kaplan’s denial of Trump’s motion for new trial and to reduce the punitive damages in the E Jean Carroll sex assault, defamation and punitive damages trial; whether the Supreme Court can ever recover from a future decision that a criminal, coup plotting, rival assassination planning president can get away with it and enjoy immunity from criminal prosecution; whether Trump will be indicted eventually in Arizona for election interference, and who may be cooperating with the Arizona AG to make that happen, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

Here, here! What's to stop Biden from putting tRump in jail while his trials are going on? Take him off the election road. Force his big mouth shut, finally. And what's to stop Biden from dismissing all Supreme Court justices and appointing new people who will be more impartial and fair in their decisions? I think Biden would find it beneath his mindset to appoint people so blatantly biased FOR himself. What do you think?

As a UK listener: Concern about Trump spills far over US borders, as you well know. That one has no right to exercise a vote induces a feeling of helplessness, in addition to anxiety regarding the next presidency - anxiety which is widespread in all the cultural circles that I know of, encompassing civil servants, medical doctors, academics, indeed, pretty much anyone with a university degree. I listen to all of your broadcasts. What you offer is absolutely outstanding, a model of intelligence and judiciousness. We used to look to the BBC for such coverage, decades ago, before successive Conservative governments drew its teeth. My thanks for the most penetrating and right-minded information and analysis that I have stumbled across on UKposts.

It's time to expand the court, install term limits, change the nomination process, and put enforceable ethics standards in place. The founders did not forsee a court as partisan and feckless as this one. You probably know that over 76% of Democrats want a change in the Supreme Court This is critical Charlie

@richardfeverel99 12 днів тому
During the 'presidential immunity' hearing, one of the Liberal justices should have asked: "Sometimes Supreme Court justices have to rule against presidents. If a president came to view the justices on this court as political enemies, could he have us killed with full immunity? Would that also be part of his official duties?" Often, conservatives only recognise the effects of their policies when THEY are personally affected. If the Trump lawyer had argued that assassination of a Supreme Court justice was a possibility (as he was almost bound to do based on his previous arguments), it might have knocked some sense into at least John Roberts. For my part, I don't think that this question is purely theoretical. Trump wants to be a dictator/monarch. Currently, the Supreme Court justices are the only group of people in the government with quasi-monarchical absolute power - in other words, they are his COMPETITION. Also, Trump is profoundly vindictive - his past is littered with people who were 99% loyal to him, but who were nonetheless discarded and destroyed for their perceived 1% disloyalty. Even the current right-wing Supreme Court has ruled against him occasionally, and just one adverse ruling is enough for them to make Trump's enemies list. If he ever got re-elected, I do not believe that he would let the Supreme Court escape his jealousy and vengeance. The conservative justices are playing with fire. If they are arrogant enough to consign the country to the flames, Trump will burn them too.
