All three Trump nominated Justices ruled against him.
He has been shiting on their program
Time for them to show their independence
Trump tends not to use his scant gray matter wisely

Although I’m not absolutely clear, it appears that the Court voted 8-1 to deny the former President’s claim of executive privilege, with Justice Clarence Thomas dissenting (he would have granted the application). The Supreme Court accepted the Court of Appeals’ view that the application would have been denied even had it been made by a sitting President.
Thomas is a useless hack. Should have retired years ago, back when he made Republicans fill their depends over the thought of him giving Obama a SCOTUS slot. Now that Biden is in office…
And I’m going to predict that if Republicans retake the White House in ’24, Breyer will be deified by the youth left a la the Notorious RBG. People may start crediting him with inventing ice cream(Not for nothing, either–Breyer’s is the best of ice cream).
James, that was a very funny and biting comment “Scant Gray matter”. I like it I am going to have to use that one now…
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wy.) slammed former Republican Speaker Newt Gingrich after he suggested that members of the select congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former President Trump may be jailed for their work.
Gingrich, who has reportedly been advising Republican leadership over the last several months, predicted during an appearance on Fox News on Sunday that the GOP will regain control of Congress after this year’s midterm elections and will avenge what leading Republicans have said is a partisan investigation led by Cheney and Democrats.
“You’re going to have a Republican majority in the House and a Republican majority in the Senate. And all of these people who have been so tough and so mean and so nasty are going to be delivered subpoenas,” Gingrich said, adding the lawmakers heading up the commission are “just running over the law.”
“And I think when you have a Republican Congress, this is all going to come crashing down,” he continued. “And the wolves are going to find out they are now sheep and they’re the ones who are going to face a real risk of, I think, jail for the kind of laws they’re breaking.”
Cheney, a leading member of the commission, later blasted Gingrich over the remarks.
“A former Speaker of the House is threatening jail time for members of Congress who are investigating the violent January 6 attack on our Capitol and our Constitution,” Cheney said in a tweet on Sunday. “This is what it looks like when the rule of law unravels.”….

Unfortunately, Gingrich is correct. Republicans will go after lawmakers who tried to hold the seditioist criminals accountable for their crimes. Is there any doubt?
Amusingly, Gingrich refers to this investigative committee as a “ Lynch mob,”
The committee of course is investigating an actual mob of Republicans who attacked the Capitol and some reportedly were carrying actual rope and declaiming on lynching fellow Republican,VP Mike Pence.
Of course Newt is a washed up has been who periodically makes some crazy statement every once in awhile in a desperate attempt to stay relevant.
Speaking of trying to stay relevant, former Republican VP candidate the boisterously unvaccinated Sarah Palin has contracted Covid.Guess there’s all sorts of ways to stay “ relevant.”
