    Wow, imagine being so self important that you petitioned the Supreme Court for an emergency intervention to keep you from going to a 4 month sentence for a fairly ordinary situation.

      An ordinary situation that was solely caused by himself, if you’re called to testify then testify even if it’s just asserting your fifth amendment right.

        Really big trend that year for Republicans to decide they can just ignore subpoenas. Meanwhile, these days Gym of Ohio, who ignored a subpoena in 2022, is threatening Fani Willis for not responding to subpoenas quickly enough.

      Well the Supreme Court is clearly corrupt, so it was worth a shot.

      Piece of shit really dreading it; probably mostly the public shaming of it all. Pleases me greatly.

      Bad headline. They denied taking the case because it is not Supreme Court worthy. They didn’t hear the case and rule against him.

      Well all this shit is pretty untread ground. Usually politicians aren’t as transparently corrupt as Trump.

      But what if he bought Clarence Thomas a vacation house?

    The Supreme Court is NOT Corrupt but if Peter Navarro gave Chief Justice Roberts a lavish vacation they probably would have allowed him to stay OUT of Jail!

    Even though expected, the news remains wonderful.
