Yes. That’s kinda my point. How long have they known about this dude, and they are just now getting around to asking some questions? What’s the likelihood they see him before the November elections? What’s the likelihood dems hold onto the senate? |

For crying out loud can they avoid appointing another right wing hack like Hur or Mueller. |

I’ve had this tab open for a month and it took me this long to get to it. Oh, it’s bad. Leonard Leo is but one of the many Republicans seeking to destroy America as we know it, and because he has built a many layered empire of evil, he may continue to get away with it. DC AG Brian Schwalb began investigating Leo’s twisted empire “But since news of the probe became public, its legal basis has been challenged by 12 GOP attorneys general who are current or former members of the Republican Attorneys General Association. The Concord Fund, one of the Leo network’s primary nonprofits, and its predecessor, the Judicial Crisis Network, have long been RAGA’s biggest funder, directing $20 million to it since 2014, according to annual tax filings.” Then, to further muddy the waters, “a round of articles in conservative media claimed that Schwalb angered D.C. residents at a city panel discussion about youth crime. The articles were pegged to a critical tweet. Its author was Carrie Severino, who leads the Concord Fund.” They deliberately misrepresented what he said in order to make it seem like he was failing to prosecute criminals when he was saying that because of the way DC works he can’t and that he thinks this is contributing to crime. The article goes on from there and highlights little Leonard Leo’s work on Project 2025 as well. The GOP is a vast right wing conspiracy. |

A majority of voters no longer trust the Supreme Court: https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Justice/2024/0424/supreme-court-trust-trump-immunity-overturning-roe
It is seen as making decisions however they want vs in accordance with the law, and that they have no problem ignoring precedent. |

White House Counsel Pat Cippolone warned Trump, White House officials, and staff that the coup plot was ILLEGAL.
Trump and others ignored him, so how could Trump be given immunity when he ignored the law? |

Because it’s ok when republicans do it. The Trump judges got his back. |
