Sounds like the wrong party has been hoarding weapons.
Jesus, this is bleak. In a week they’ve straight-up legalized giving gifts to officials as an overt gratuity and declared Presidents immune from the law.
Part of me wants to see the current President take advantage of this moment to forcibly install a Court that will quickly overturn these decisions and return us to sanity.
They literally ruled that interested parties can pay a gratituity to officials and politicians, so long as the official act they’re paying for occurs before payment.
That’s not some pessimistic reading of the case. It’s not subtle at all in it’s intention to legalize bribery at the federal level.
The case at hand was a mayor that gave a contract to a waste disposal company worth about a million dollars overtly in exchange for them paying him $15,000 after the contract was awarded.
He was prosecuted for official corruption and bribery, and the Supreme Court threw it out because he was paid after the corrupt act and not before.

They made this decision knowing full well Biden is too spineless and stuck in the eighties to do it.

What a shithole. Impeachment is sounding real good…
No, that’s it. They ruled it A OK to accept gifts for favors.
Who? Clearance? Lmao of course they did. ‘Is it ok we give you things?’ ‘Of course!’ Fuck this shit
