Which is one reason why he and his Chief Justice Roger Taney had an antagonistic relationship ( aside from Dred Scott)
But I am not referring to wartime detentions of real or suspected enemies of the Republic
And FDR........................
These ‘hypotheticals’ are crazy.
I wish Sidney Powell could just smack them (their hypotheticals) down.
It’s sickening to hear these “judges” shrug off the show trial that DC justice has become. What I hear is the wild flailing of an innocent man as the swamp monsters drag him beneath the slime.
Hopefully all 5 or 7 (not sure how many judges are on this panel) are NOT tainted/compromised.
The discussion about disqualifying Sullivan is another delay tactic. The Sullivan review proceedings gain another 6 weeks of delay.
The DC Appeals Court is 7 to 4 Democrats to Republicans. The full court should have refused to hear Sullivan’s motion but they vacated the Writ of Mandamus and now they want to use legal procedures and court calendars to chew the fat regarding Sullivan.
The DC Court of Appeals is corrupt. If Barr had a SCOTUS without John Roberts, he could appeal to transfer jurisdiction out of DC and into another federal court where a federal judge could hear from Barr and Flynn and dismiss the case in under an hour.
POTUS could file a complaint with SCOTUS that the DC courts have shown bad faith. Barr could follow with a motion to put the DC court system in receivership with special masters to oversee and review practices. Meanwhile, Barr could cite bad faith and transfer jurisdiction of all pending cases in DC out of DC.
In the meantime, don’t be fooled by the focus on Sullivan. They are playing you. It’s all about delay.
Dred Scott was decided 7 to 9
Pretty solid case that what was not in the Constitution ( at the time) could not be added from bench over emotion
Led to the proper relief...Constitutional Amendment (s)
It’s all about delay.............until after the election...................
Sorry, 7 out of 9
Great info....let’s take that side conversation to PM, or to another thread, please.
TIA.
Trump favored/appointed (?) Judge up, now? The one who replaced Kavanaugh??
from J. Gardland’s question:
it is revealed that AS USUAL
the corrupt court DID NOT LIST the filings/Decisions
on the “official” court docket.

Thanks.
Frustrating, as usual. :-(
I’m on Flynn’s side on this 100% but you waive your right to a speedy trial when you plead guilty and every criminal defendant is specifically advised of this at the guilty plea hearing.
Isn’t it fascinating to see the DC gangster elite trying their damndest to bury one guy on a minor, almost non-existent charge while all across the country, prosecutors and judges are dismissing violent felony charges by the thousands without even so much as an arraignment hearing?
One man that they are on a crusade to smear as a warning to all who might cross them: we don’t care what you think. WE are the government, YOU can do nothing, if you elect someone who tries we will fabricate, frame and imprison him and his allies.
This is what my ancestors shot British troops for? To create a gigantic police state filled with deranged madmen who are worse then any English court follower?
Down with all of them.
I'm not a lawyer and so I cannot say that it was "decided wrong". I do think most people consider Dred Scott to have been a low point for the Court, which probably increased the likelihood of civil war.
From Wikipedia:
Taney concluded that the Court had no jurisdiction over Dred Scott's case because he was not a citizen. However, after deciding this issue, Taney did not conclude the matter before the Court, as per usual procedure, but rather continued further and struck down the Missouri Compromise as unconstitutional. Taney wrote that the Compromise's legal provisions would free slaves who were living north of the 36°N latitude line in the western territories. However, in the Court's judgment, this would constitute the government depriving slaveowners of their property—since slaves were legally the property of their owners—without due process of law, which is forbidden under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Taney also reasoned that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights implicitly precluded any possibility of constitutional rights for black African slaves and their descendants.
In Flynn's case, there is no prosecutor. In Scott's case, the Supreme Court declared that it did not have jurisdiction. Yet in both cases, the judge wants to issue a decision nonetheless.
Taney also declared that blacks could NOT be citizens per the Constitution. I think that's a big stretch.
Lastly, Taney overturned the Missouri Compromise -- which may have been appropriate (I'm not a lawyer) -- but I don't think that matter was before the court. And the basis seems questionable to me because the Fifth Amendment is partially about not allowing the government to "take" things from property owners and the Missouri Compromise did not involve the government "taking" anything. It just set rules for what type of property could be owned. Seems different to me.
My two cents.
Who was that last hostile femail Judge???
*Female
Let’s not forget, every one of these judges is hoping one day to get a SCOTUS appointment..............
Flynn’s original attorney was giving him bad advice and was, quite clearly, working for the other side.
