..they will be in violation of their oath.
"I, _________, do solemnly swear or affirm that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as _________, according to the best of my abilities and understanding, agreeably to the constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God." https://www.constitutionfacts.com/us-supreme-court/history-of-oaths-of-office/ Trump can't claim executive privilege because he's not President and even if he was, privilege can't be used to cover up a crime. And, they probably want to know the skinny as much as the rest of us.  |

13. Strange times for sure
|
The Committee has requested SCOTUS make a decision in January. Regardless their present schedule, we KNOW they could drop whatever they're doing, long enough to render a decision to not take the case, assuming that's what they decide. IF they take that course of action, I'm probably right. If they don't, you can be looking for the crow to cook...
But I cannot believe any Justice on the Court is sympathetic, in any way to any degree, to Trump's insanity. |
