If there is any lingering wondering about the fair and balanced nature of the current Supreme Court, rest assured, there is no such thing.
This is a hyper-political, reactionary group of extreme right-wing conservatives who have no regard for constitutional precedent, the rights of women, minority groups or the the average American. The majority are heavy-handed activists who have now handed down a verdict that essentially gives Trump a pass for all his misdeeds. These justices, by their presidential immunity decision, have enabled and encouraged, or in legalese, aided and abetted Trump’s criminality.
Whether one is a Democrat, Republican, independent, Green, Libertarian or whatever, there should be deep concern that these so-called justices have made a mockery of the rule of law and have essentially become kingmakers.
