Meet the next SCOTUS nom from Trump, should he get in.

Via Kyle Cheney:

BREAKING: Judge Cannon has dismissed the #Trump #documents case, citing violation of appointments clause.

Cannon has issued a 93-page opinion.

@GottaLaff Looks like she had this in the works for a while and was waiting for the right moment to drop it.

@GottaLaff America is fucked. Sad to see it so openly and corruptly turn into a Christofascist dictatorship.

Democrats are going to have to learn REALLY FAST what having an entire judicial system with malleable, ideology-targetted rules means.

And it doesn't mean making nice with a party who wants us dead and imprisoned.

@GottaLaff: I'm horrified by this ruling. Trump is a major threat to our national security given his handling of crucial classified information.

Having spent my engineering career working for a large defense contractor, I have some understanding of the significance of the crimes Trump was alleged to have committed in this case. That this judge could so easily dismiss this case when so much is at risk, I just can't believe the mendacity of it all.

As another commenter pointed out, this 93-page decision was clearly in work for some time. This dismissal was planned which makes it even worse.

I know we can't solve a political problem through the courts or with violence. We have to do this through the ballot box. We MUST vote out the MAGA GOP for the sake of our national security.

For a long time now it has been clear she would protect the annointed one if she could. And that the case would not be heard before the election. And that she was really corrupt and stupid.

This is not really a surprise.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@BootedUp Nobody is surprised.

@GottaLaff I firmly believe that this will resonate badly with any undecideds (who are these people?!) The only ones who will cheer this on is MAGA. This could help dems in the long run.

@madrobin That’s what I’m hoping for

@GottaLaff I don't know why I'm still shocked when the worst possible outcome happens every single fucking time. I'm don't even know how to process it any more.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@OldFartPhil Shock is normal. Each of these things is shocking and traumatic.

Trouble is, one after the other makes it hard to recover.

@GottaLaff Is there recourse? Can this be appealed?

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@kateiacy Yes.

Guess where it ultimately ends up though. SCOTUS.

I saw this on Reuters and immediately started cussing. File this under, "They better damn well appeal this asap!"
Yup, we knew it. We're all effing prognosticators. Dammit!

@GottaLaff To all those fucking pollyanna assholes downplaying this cunt's appointment to the court along with her supposed 'expertise' sounding the alarm even with her colleagues: Yeah, you can STFU and sit the fuck down with your 'take' on this. Americans are so fucking stupid.

I actually laughed out loud.

It is as serious as a heart attack, of course, but it is the kind of slapstick heart attack that would appeal to 8yr old's and involve lots of farting, dying on the toilet, and in which the first responder slips on poop and breaks their neck.

We have now almost fully devolved into the Idiocracy and Religulous version of ourselves, and now serve only as a warning to history.

@GottaLaff 93 pages?! She has been working on this for some time. I have so many questions about any sort of help or advising she has received along the way.

The wolves are inside the gates wearing their MAGOTy sheep’s clothing. But look, their muzzles are sticking out, grinning with yellow teeth, gleeful at this point in time.
I know that most of us here see the reality. If those asleep don’t wake up for this election and I’m not talking about the Cult or the Co-conspirators, but average citizens who have everything to lose stay asleep or prefer equivalence arguments, then fuck us. 🔥🤬

@GottaLaff I am very frightened at the speed that the US is unraveling.

Deep breath - continue to do what I can.

@CuriousMagpie EXACTLY how I’m feeling.

@GottaLaff I think I’ve said this before on here (us old folks tend to do that 😉).
I am part of the first generation of Jews in America born after the holocaust and I feel like I’ve been waiting for this turn to happen in the US my whole life.
Hoping I was wrong but not trusting that hope.
I will still stick with Mariame Kaba about hope.
