    Fact : Any potus appointment is tainted by lies, corruption and ulterior motives.
    AG Barr has NEVER prosecuted a case ever, look it up.
    Simply another corrupt pundit to do bidding of an failed potus with delusions of a dictatorship.
    NO appointment is permanent, a Supreme Court Justice CAN be impeached AND removed.

    What America needs in more unemployed career politicians. Thank God for Trump he created the strongest worldwide economy the envy of the west, the highest employment rate in 50 years, amongst Blacks Hispanics and Asians with the highest wages. He rebuilt the strongest military force globally.He neutralised Nrth Korea. A peace deal signed between Israel and their Arab Neighbours, that no other president could achieve. Acknowledged Jerusalem as the Capital. Stopped endless American wars, derailed the swamp`s gravy train.Built a wall all in his first term in Office. That`s why he will win by a landslide victory because the silent majority are with him. This time he will make the economy even stronger. If it takes a showman to deliver not a politician then so be it.

    Trump’s 2020 election victory will be determined by the Supreme Court. The ACA will be overturned, followed by RoeV.Wade.

    Trump is poised to win his second term as President. The polls are totally inaccurate. Hillary Clinton was favored to win, and was ultimately defeated by Trump. 2020 will be a similar outcome.
    It cannot be otherwise. The current polls cannot be counted on for accuracy.

  9. @totalysane4553

    December 19, 2023 at 1:01 am

    I think Trump has a personal agenda. He dosen't care about roe v wade. He dosent care about the right to vote. Or equal justice under the law. The constitution is negotiable and the courts will rewrite an autocrat version

  10. @chrisjohnson2460

    December 19, 2023 at 1:01 am

    Even more than that, he wants the Court to overturn his upcoming
    criminal convictions.

    She has been nominated and is being pushed through quickly for one reason and one reason only. To stack the SCOTUS deck in Trump's favor. Nothing more, nothing less.

    The Republicans reduced the number of justices for ONE SOLID YEAR when they refused Merrick Garland's hearing. So, I say make them eat it, stack the courts.

  15. @suomynona4607

    December 19, 2023 at 1:01 am

    If Republicans are so intent on packing the courts than the Democrats have no choice but to unpack the courts. Add 10 to 20 SCOTUS judges. It make the appointment, loss and positions of any one judge less impactful.

  16. @michaelbartlett5775

    December 19, 2023 at 1:01 am

    If dems win they should expand the court ..because Republican are stacking the courts and bragging about it..they already have the majority so they get what they deserve and the peoole gets what they deserve !

    ALL GOP SENATORS should know IF they confirm for Barrett , US citizens in their state WILL VOTE THEM OUT. US citizens have the RIGHT to APPOINT their REPS who will vote for or against a SC judge. DT and GOP is taking away the PEOPLE'S Right to Liberty – FREEDOM to vote their elected representatives in. GOP SENATE and DT is blocking the People's Will.

    Originalists think guns are more important than women—because guns are in the ORIGINAL constitution, and women aren't.

    Which makes sense with Amy, because she is also a religious originalist, who thinks a 4000 year old compilation of religious writing must be taken literally.

    The Left just does not understand what the Courts are for. Just like the left has no clue about Economics. They think the Court is there to alter what the Constitution says. That is not the job of the Courts that would be the job of the Legislators though the Amendment Process. They think Raising taxes would increases the Revenue stream into the Government. That is also wrong. If you raise taxes on Business what would happen is Business would just close up shop in American and move elsewhere. They did it under Obama. Not only would you Lose tax money from business leaving you would also lose the taxes the employees would have been paying before their jobs left America. In the First Term of President Trump all of America learned a little about Basic economics well all that are not blinded by the Failed Ideology of Socialism/Communism. Just like the Courts are not there to expand or contract any rights. They are there to ensure the rights set down in the Constitution are followed.

    barrett is a terrible choice and the process, even though it is allowable by the Constitution, is being pushed though to act on trump's behest. And the list of unbelievably unqualified federal judges is the lifelong plotting of moscow mitch.

    One of trumps agendas is that he is trying hardest to erase everything Obama accomplished when he was president. Why do you ask because he could not take a little good natured ribbing at the press association dinner so he wants to erase Obama's legacy. Trump doesn't care about the people he only cares about himself and his money, and in his mission to do this he is going to harm millions of people. He doesn't care because the little people lives don't matter to him he doesn't care if we all die.

Trump’s DOJ subpoenas NYT journalists over Air Force One story

Published

on

By



The Trump administration issued subpoenas on Friday to several journalists for The New York Times, after the paper reported on security concerns involving President Trump’s new Qatari-donated Air Force One. In some cases, the subpoenas were delivered by federal agents who showed up at reporters’ homes. The subpoenas seek to force the reporters to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday, and are an extraordinary escalation in President Trump’s efforts to threaten and intimidate independent news organizations. NYT Investigative reporter Michael Schmidt joins Morning Joe with more on this developing story.
