I’m mad, I’m so fucking mad.
The MAGA Majority on the Supreme Court didn’t just put a finger on the scale of the 2024 election in favor of Donald Trump, they sat Ginni Thomas and the fleet of J6 buses she paid for on the fucking thing.
And it’s absolute lunacy.
But it’s not at all surprising.
We all knew this was coming. I mean ok sure I confess, I may have had a few moments of naive weakness, when I’d let a sliver of light shine into my mind whispering “maybe they will do the right thing, Jo…” but deep down in my soul, I knew that this fucking Court was never gonna do the right thing. The MAGA majority on this court laughs at the mere suggestion of doing the right thing.
They know they don’t have to do the right thing. But what they did yesterday, was a Russian nesting doll of the wrong thing. It was a 9-layer cake of wrong. It was wrong in so many ways, it could change its name to Sybil. It was so wrong it made Ted Cruz’s jowl-merkined face look right. It was so next-level wrong it could show the pee-pee tape to a preschool class at nap time and it wouldn’t make it any more wrong than it already was. (Ok, ok— fine, that would still make it more wrong, but you’re still picking up what I’m laying down right?)
They didn’t just agree to hear the ridiculous fucking ‘TOTAL AND COMPLETE IMMUNITY FROM EVERYTHING BECAUSE I AM THE ALL POWERFUL OZ’ bullshit case, which would have been bad to begin with. Nope. They waited TWO weeks of fishing trips or some other unethical shit to tell us that, and then they FROZE the whole damn thing, which makes it that much worse.
But even that ain’t all of the awfulness of it, they also set a date for oral arguments in… FUCKING APRIL. The week of April 22nd. Like seven weeks from now fucking April 22nd. Like, you could shave your eyebrows off today and there’s a good chance they’d grow back fully by the time they hear the thing. Like, if you started dating someone tonight and things were going really well, it wouldn’t be all that weird to say “I love you” to that person by the time SCOTUS starts to hear oral arguments. Aaron Judge could have 30 homers seven weeks from now and the season hasn’t even started yet. You could learn to cook, play poker or chess. You could write an entire book on the subject of waiting in between now and the time this shit begins.
And that’s just when they’ll HEAR arguments. They won’t rule on the damn thing until May, or even more likely JUNE!! My birthday is in June, since you’re asking and how kind of you to remember that I’ll be 50 on June 17th, which is crazy because I was 22 literally yesterday, also in lieu of gifts I would like a functioning, intact democracy come January of 2025, but I digress.
And, another kicker, is that this case might now collide with the documents case, if it doesn’t get completely derailed by that Trumpy tramp on the bench, which would mean the January 6th case might not even begin THIS year.
Which means, we the American people will be casting ballots this fall to decide if Donald Trump should win another presidential election without hearing any of the evidence in the case related to how he tried to steal the last motherfucking election.
Or, to put it in technical terms - batshit crazy, because if like me, you’re asking yourself, “but how can that be”, and the answer is nowhere to be found — then batshit is all you have left.
