Summary
Former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance warned that Chief Justice John Roberts may reverse a key Supreme Court precedent to benefit Donald Trump.
Trump seeks to overturn Humphrey’s Executor v. United States, a 1930s ruling that limits presidential power to fire officials.
Vance argues Trump is trying to consolidate executive power and undermine the judiciary. She cited Roberts’ language in a past ruling granting ex-presidents broad immunity as an “ominous sign.”
The conservative court may prioritize politics over precedent.
Betcha he’ll get a solid “gratuity” for it, too.
This is the shit I don’t get. So many people paving the way for fascism are selling out a world power that sloshes trillions of dollars around every year for like… a few hundred million + perks? Maybe a few billion if you’re important? Its so un-ambitious.
These people also (presumably) have to live in this country after its fucked. When the trillionaires start throwing their weight around and issuing laws your pocket change won’t mean shit.
I believe standard fees will apply, an RV and a trip to Tijuana.
One of those meaningless medals Trump gets wet handing out.
Nah, Trump never pays anyone
This is a plot twist I should have seen coming.
