After a day of hearing United States Supreme Court Justices question lawyers about Presidential Immunity, I have a really basic question for all of the Justices.
Where were you all during the 3 hours 11 minutes of the January 6th Attack On The U.S. Capitol?
Were you all still in your Washington D.C., Supreme Court Building chambers doing business as if the attackers were not there for you? Could you see or hear the mob, or did you tunein to live coverage of the attack? Did you all have or need additional security? Were you all escorted to a secure alternative location? Were your families worried for your safety?
I am trying to understand how you Justices could have been 1,523 feet from the Violently Attacked Capitol on January 6, 2021, a five minute walk, and not feel it your duty today to protect the U.S. Constitution from an criminally indicted former President, instrumental in planning, inciting, and supporting the attack by refusing to order any combative response to the attackers. The National Guard were on standby waiting for the order to deploy.
Do the Justices not see the fault of their not wanting today to address a Presidential coup immunity question? Why are they tiptoeing around what the entire country and world witnessed on “Live TV” when this former President’s supporters, at his direction, marched to and stormed the U.S. Capitol not 5 minutes away from them.
I want to believe the Supreme Court Justices take their duty of interpreting the meaning of law, finding relevancy in the law to a particular set of facts, or ruling on how laws should be applied, very seriously and professionally. But much of what I heard today makes me question if perhaps the Supreme Court is compromised in some say. Something to me just didn’t feel genuine and sincere in the way many of the Justices, not all, were carrying out their duties. It almost felt like a staged production of “Inherit the Wind” or “12 Angry Men.”
I, and I am sure many of my fellow U.S. citizens are left feeling as if today’s Supreme Court Justices’ questions on Presidential Immunity was a farce. Why? What is behind the decision for the highest court in the land to ignore the obvious Presidential coup of Jan. 6th, choosing instead to debate Immunity of hypothetical official and unofficial Presidential acts. And then take weeks/months to decide on a ruling or no ruling. One must ask if they are serving the country or the individual who was named Wednesday as an “unindicted co-conspirator” in the Michigan fake elector scheme.
Maybe it is time to seriously consider term limits for Supreme Court Justices. When the wife of a Justice is in touch with some of those indicted for trying to overturn the election, and said Justice does not recuse himself from hearing any arguments related to the case, it’s time for a change.
