The SCOTUS case is simple. The criminal elect Trump invoked an emergency law, IEEPA to charge tariffs.
Trump unilaterally raised tariffs on Canadian imports because an ad was shown from a speech where Reagan denounced tariffs.
Does an ad constitute an emergency?

It is inspiring to see a growing majority of people, from the New York Mayoral race to California’s Prop 50, electing candidates & measures to offset Trump/GOP gerrymandering.
With growing protests to massive voter turnout, every R must consider whether to support Trump’s criminality or not.

It should be clear to anyone with a measurable IQ why the criminal elect has pure contempt for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
He embraces a system in which your white male offspring are simply handed vast wealth and power —because that always works so well for society.

The Trump regime has asked people not to share this picture showing the destruction of the White House for the criminal elect and his gold ballroom.
It’s perfectly symbolic of what Trump and his criminally corrupt cabal are doing to the entire country.

A quick look at a news:
Trump is bombing fisherman.
Vance is bombing SoCal.
Israel is bombing Gaza.
Millions marched against Trump.
One Putin call & Trump offers him Ukraine.
It’s like the Epstein/Trump sex files don’t exist.
I thought pedophilia was wrong regardless of political affiliation.
