The ketchup is running down the wall tonight. My fondest hope is that he strokes out from all the hamberders and rage, and ends up like Hector Salamanca in Breaking Bad. Ding ding, mf-er.

When I saw the headline coming from a news feed, I rushed over to the NY Times and gasped.

It was actually true! Donald Trump is SOL and the DOJ is on course to indict him for a lot of bad things.

I love it!

His lawyers are probably packing up all their briefcases, and he's possibly frantically calling others in to see if they can take over, only to be told, "I'm sorry, but my schedule is full for the next 10 years.." by every single lawyer out there who he applies to.

Because this is where the shit really hits the fan.

He can't appeal any more. The 11th circuit court of appeals is just sitting there, saying, "Come on, just try us again!" and Judge Cannon is looking for a hole to hide in.

Donald Trump has run out of gas on appeals.

Let the games begin!

Thank you, Merrick Garland. I also applaud the Supreme Court for boiling all the verbiage down to one sentence. Boom!

The Supreme Court does not want to go down with Trump.

With regards to the still missing documents- is anyone but me speculating that tRump doesn’t actually have them; that they have already been “sold” to the highest bidder?? And those empty folders that were found, could those documents already be in the hands of people who should never have been allowed to see them??

Excellent! The orange weirdo and his entourage of lost souls are losers again. It seems pretty obvious that there are many more Top Secret/Classified documents spread about the orange monster’s dumps and still in his possession. We’ll have to see what the next move turns out to be regarding collecting the government’s precious belongings. Thanks, Lucian, for helping all of us process this.

Maybe the end is finally in sight. Anyone giving odds on his pulling a Snowden?

What a great day. *Rump gets a one-two punch in his ample paunch. Thank you, Lucian, for once again providing your usual clarity to convoluted legal shenanigans. I would make an observation, however. The one-sentence SCOTUS decision didn’t indicate a vote, and the assumption is that it was a unanimous action. But that isn’t necessarily true. I assume it’s Roberts who makes the call on how a decision made without argument (the shadow docket) is reported (I may be wrong). I think it could easily have been 8-1 with you-know-who being the lone dissenter as he was once before. Judge Cannon didn’t get punched in the gut, more like a healthy kick in the butt, and when the 11th Circuit rules on the full DOJ appeal I suspect her legal career will be in total tatters.

Thanks for these updates. If I may paraphrase: not only no but hell no!

There are very few legal eagles like Garland. I'm fortunate enough to have known some of them. Social media is full of reasonable people angry with him for not speeding along and already indicting Trump. What would you rather have, an airtight case with no surprises left for Trump to try to pull or a mess and the "bullets" you fire hit everything except the target. This added to the Commission's masterful story boarding of what happened that day stitches threads of steel in Garland's case. When this happens, Trump has no arguments to make, good or bad.
