On the DOJ and SCOTUS

Trump is now firing veteran prosecutors who are telling him that there is no legal case against his political enemies. The message here is clear–there is no place in the DOJ for ethical attorneys.

Even right-wing judges–Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett, to name two–have to be appalled by this development. But will they do anything about it? Not a chance! They will continue to pretend that it is business as usual, that Trump is the same as any other president, and that the DOJ is still entitled to presumptions of regularity and fair play. Why? Because they can’t handle the truth.
