Who swore an oath to uphold and defend the US Constitution and this Nation against enemies Foreign and Domestic, so help them God.

Any Supreme Court Justice who decides that these former 4 Star Generals and Admirals are NOT worthy of the positions they hold. They will have betrayed the very Constitution they swore to uphold and defend by saying that TSF is ABOVE THE LAW if they Grant him "absolute immunity."from prosecution once leaving office for crimes committed while in office as TSF has.

We will have to wait and see.
