Yeah... I’ve only taught American politics and public law courses for a few years, but I’m quite sure that that’s not how Supreme Court decisionmaking works.

Rudy Guiliani in an interview on OAN said the Supreme Court refused to hear the ridiculous Texas lawsuit because "...the New York Times told them to and they're afraid of ANTIFA."

None of it is credible. I wonder if he's still getting his $20,000 A day?

I doubt if he's been getting 20k a day out of trump. Trump's gotta worry about paying Putin, not to mention Melanoma's pre-nup soon.

of court. Not to mention the him presiding over the national, leaking embarrassment his press conferences have become.

Who would pay 20k a day for repeated failure? And he isn't the AG or White House counsel. He's trump's private attorney so trump has to pay it. If he pays with campaign funds or donations, which I seriously doubt, it's not coming from me or you unless you donate to republican causes.

Perhaps he knows things (about Trump). Not that he has much credibility, but maybe that is the point of Trump having Rudy say crazy shit.

to Rudy for whatever reason? He's already lost so he doesn't have to worry about bad PR because it's all bad at this point.
