    Let me ask you: does this make the supreme court guilty of Aiding and abetting in the crimes of Donald Trump? By giving aid and comfort to Trump should they be held accountable?

    We now have Supreme Court justices who are absent any intellectually honest sense of justice.
  • Executive privilege only applies to the current president. Not, to former presidents.

    Amy Cony Barrett (sp?) being reasonable on this issue just makes me nervous that she's buying credibility to do something much less reasonable later. Call me a cynic, but this is a woman who voted against women's fundamental rights, so she has proven her judicial flexibility..
