Yes, they will.

No one is handing him the power. He has the power as president.

You seem to think the administrative state has more power than the president. Nope. They will be brought to heel.

Review the US Constitution - Article Ii, Section I and Section II

JD Vance has already indicated that this administration might just ignore the supreme court if they rule against the administration.
Do you guys really think SCOTUS is corrupt and is going to hand the country over to Trump?

I don't think the Supreme Court is actually corrupt but we live in strange times

People like Roberts, Kagan, & Gorsuch didn't walk the perfectly straight line up the judicial ladder for decades while passing numerous clearances and background checks just to fumble it all away for one idiot POTUS that will be gone in 4 years. Use your brain. Think. Read.

I might have bought that before the ridiculous immunity decision. Not anymore. They knew they were handing a get-out-jail free card to a criminal who had already attempted a coup and who had a very good chance of being president again. I have no faith left in the republicans on this court.

And now you're sounding like one of the unAmerican idiots. You may as well be MAGA. Sorry, gotta be honest. These people aren't the sleazy, slimy Trumps and Bidens of the world that did little good before becoming very powerful people. They finished top in their class everywhere and walked a straight line everywhere just to get into position for the highest appointment and confirmation. You may have a case to question Thomas's integrity but the other 8 justices can be trusted to protect the Constitution.

Disrespecting the SCOTUS and Constitution puts you in MAGA's camp. Don't be that person. Be a normal person.

That would put Chuckie Schumer in the MAGA camp, would it not?
"I want to tell you Gorsuch, I want to tell you Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions."

And what about MAGA Maxine Waters?
"To hell with the Supreme Court, we will defy them!"

I guess we'd have to put all of the protestors/activists that gathered at the homes of SCOTUS justices in the MAGA camp as well, as in doing so would certainly qualify as disrespect since they were in clear violation of Federal Law...
18 U.S. Code § 1507 - Picketing or Parading
Whoever, with the intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge, juror, witness, or court officer, in the discharge of his duty, pickets or parades in or near a building housing a court of the United States, or in or near a building or residence occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness, or court officer, or with such intent uses any sound-truck or similar device or resorts to any other demonstration in or near any such building or residence, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

Call it what you may. I draw the line when people disrespect our Constitution and our foundation of Democracy. One bad POTUS doesn't erase what we sent our very young and brave people to die on a beach in Europe for. The current partisan Republicans and Dems can kiss my rear end and move to their other country of choice for all I care. This ridiculousness must stop!

Who'd you vote for, hun?

The liar? Well you got it

Barrett won't play along with Trump. She'll side with Roberts.

That's interesting. Why do you think that?

Because SCOTUS Justices don't "play along" with anything or anyone. They are lone wolfs that are sometimes in agreement with other Justices and sometimes not. These people aren't bought and paid for Congress members with tainted obligations.

Who’s gonna tell this poster?

I'd like to think they are all bigger thinkers than the moment, but then they handed down that decision last summer giving the President virtual immunity and if that wasn't shortsighted, I'm not sure what is.

I read that ruling as assuming that Harris would win. It wasn't shortsighted, it was long sighted, thinking of a long lasting framework that would apply to all presidents with a baseline level of integrity and/or patriotism along with the obligatory narcissism, ambition, and self-centeredness that the role entails. Unfortunately, neither Trump nor Musk have that baseline level.

Lol.... assumptions about who may or may not win a future election has no influence on the decisions rendered by the SCOTUS. You have no clue what our highest judicial authority is all about or what the members of that court go through to get appointed and confirmed. Read a book, please.

I have the greatest respect for the Supreme Court, I am a lawyer. I see their familiarity, and lack of familiarity, with people and their nature every day. I also see that Supreme Court opinions are not static, they revisit issues and refine rulings, sometimes significantly.

Not static and never perfect in the eyes of all but collectively, SCOTUS members have always been loyal to the Constitution and the American people. There are institutions that deserve some questioning of their integrity but the SCOTUS isn't one of them.

Except for Thomas, the DEI justice who never wrote an original idea in 30years, just copied off of Scalis and Alito's homework while taking orders from his sugar daddy

Gorsuch is as corrupt as his mother.

Yes, few people understand his background. He was raised up in with a corrupt and profoundly anti-agency ideology.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/17/politics/supreme-court-epa-neil-gorsuch-chevron/index.html

Alioto- happy to cede to Oligarchy as long as they are allied with Gilead
Thomas- his clerks just follow Alioto with additional hyperbole

Sotomayor-safe vote to preserve the Constitution and separation of powers
Kagan-safe vote to preserve the Constitution and separation of powers
Brown-safe vote to preserve the Constitution and separation of powers

Roberts- does he want to surrender the judiciary and his personal power? I suppose we are about to find out whether Dark MAGA Gothic is a bridge too far for him
Kavanaugh-Likely for sale, but a product of a privilege system Dark Gothic MAGA would destroy
Barrett- She believes in something, but what is it? Is it Gilead? Does she think the Oligarchy will sustain Gilead?
Gorsuch- Really wants to destroy agencies and loot the interior, but like Roberts, may be unwilling to cede his personal power

It shows they know little of human nature and history if they assume all future presidents would have that baseline. Our founding fathers knew better.
