In other words, Justices Samuel #Alito, #ClarenceThomas, #NeilGorsuch & #BrettKavanaugh don’t believe in the power of the #judiciary, their own power, or the #SeparationOfPowers.

They believe that the president is in fact above the #law — as long as that president is #Trump.

Here is the order, Alito’s self sabotaging dissent starts on page 2.

Judge Ali should consider "the feasibility of any compliance deadlines," #SCOTUS added.

4 conservative justices dissented from the denial of the application, w/Justice #Alito writing that Ali did not have "unchecked power to compel the government to pay out ... 2 billion taxpayer dollars."

"I am stunned," Alito added.

The other dissenters were Justices #ClarenceThomas, #NeilGorsuch & #BrettKavanaugh.

Maddow Blog | The scary subtext behind the ‘#PaidProtester’ line from #Trump and #Republicans

Story by Steve Benen, 3/4/2025

"As members of Congress confront angry constituents at #TownHalls nationwide, Republicans are increasingly invested in the idea that the dissatisfied Americans are insincere — and well compensated.

"House Speaker Mike Johnson, for example, declared last week that he’d seen the videos from recent public events, but was confident that in 'many' communities there were 'paid protesters.' The Louisiana Republican, naturally, offered no evidence in support of his claim.

"A few days later, Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas held a town hall meeting with constituents that went so badly, the Republican gave up and ended the event early. The senator soon after suggested that he believed his detractors were paid.

"As NBC News reported, Donald Trump took a related message to his social media platform.

"Putting aside the inconvenient fact that the president did not, in reality, win by a 'landslide' — he never did reach 50% of the popular vote — Trump’s rhetoric might sound familiar. There’s a good reason for that.

"As regular readers might recall, it was nearly nine years ago when Trump’s 2016 candidacy inspired protests, at which point he assumed that the people involved couldn’t possibly be sincere in their dislike of him. They were, he said at the time, '#PaidAgitators.'

"After he prevailed on Election Day 2016, there was related anti-Trump activism. Those involved, he said in November 2016, were 'paid protesters.' Months later, after his inauguration, the #activism continued. Trump assured the public once more that these Americans deserved to be ignored — because, he assumed, they were 'paid protesters.'

"The following year, #BrettKavanaugh’s #SupremeCourt nomination inspired another round of progressive activism. The protesters, Trump insisted, were 'paid professionals.'

"For now, let’s not dwell on the fact that #Russia’s Vladimir #Putin has embraced the same tactic. Let’s instead consider the unavoidable bottom line: For Trump and too many in his party, Americans who disagree with them are effectively an impossibility that can only be explained through corrupt schemes and illicit payments.

"Indeed, it’s hardly a stretch to draw a straight line from 'paid protesters' rhetoric to election denialism: Americans who side with Trump and Republicans are real, while Americans who disagree must necessarily be seen as inauthentic.

"For his part, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries saw the president’s missive and responded by way of Bluesky. 'We don’t need paid protestors,' the New York Democrat wrote. 'The American people are with us.'"

🔥🔥🔥
the latest resignation letter in Trump’s ongoing massacre of anti-corruption prosecutors who refuse to drop charges against #EricAdams is significantly shorter than #DanielleSassoon’s letter but damn if it doesn’t get straight to the point.

> "If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."

p.s. #HaganScotten clerked for both #JohnRoberts and #BrettKavanaugh, has multiple bronze stars, and was #1 in his class at #Harvard Law.

p.p.s. the body count in this massacre is currently up to at least 7.

"Brett Kavanaugh is a blight on the Supreme Court. His inclusion among the nine Justices diminishes the entire institution, makes a mockery of judicial impartiality, and is a metaphorical middle finger to every woman in the United States."

PREVAIL by Greg Olear · Travesty Justice: How the FBI's Failure to Vet Brett Facilitated Kavanaugh's ConfirmationBy Greg Olear

William Lindsey :toad:

"[Brett] Kavanaugh was confirmed by the United States Senate on October 6, 2018, on a vote of 50-48. New evidence released last week suggests that the razor-close vote was unduly influenced by a sham supplemental FBI investigation that was tightly controlled by the Trump White House."

"[Supreme Court Justice Brett] Kavanaugh and Trump are cut much more from the same cloth. Both of them have a drive to dominate that has allegedly led them to sexually abuse women – remember that, like Kavanaugh, Trump has been accused of sexual abuse too, by more than two dozen women, and a civil jury in New York found him liable for the sexual assault of the writer E Jean Carroll last year."
