The quaint notion of checks and balances.

LOL CNN

They didn't have to agree to take up this case until next year. That would have put the DC case on hold an additional year. On Smith's request, they took the unusual step of agreeing to hear this case this year.
Gosh, I provided a link to the document citing the Court's declination of Smith's request and you are still clinging to the lie about an expedited process that didn't happen. Just another example of how you deny objective reality.

Psst CNN is not objective reality

The Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to decide whether former President Donald Trump can be tried on criminal charges that he conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 election. In a one-page unsigned order, the justices ordered a federal appeals court to continue to keep on hold its ruling rejecting Trump’s claims of immunity from prosecution, and they fast-tracked the case for oral argument in late April
 
Progs have had carte blanche. You did this to yourselves and to the people that want no part of you.
Those people you refer to, if they are against the advocacy of being paid a living wage, access to healthcare insurance, drinkable water, breathable air, not forcing a woman to carry a fetus to term against her will, making it easier for registered voters to vote, they are welcome to their miserable, brainwashed lives.

Your capacity for swallowing horseshit is larger than I thought if you think taking over 6 months after Smith's request for an expedited process was denied to make a ruling wasn't a purposeful slow walk to ensure the case would not be heard before the election.

The Supreme Court’s slow-walk on Trump immunity is playing with fire

 
Trump tried to wipe away the votes of 81M Americans by orchestrating a multi-faceted plot to steal the election..............

1. President Trump engaged in a massive effort to spread false and fraudulent information to the American public claiming the 2020 election was stolen from him.

2. President Trump corruptly planned to replace the Acting Attorney General, so that the Department of Justice would support his fake election claims.

3. President Trump corruptly pressured Vice President Pence to refuse to count certified electoral votes in violation of the US Constitution and the law.

4. President Trump corruptly pressured state election officials, and state legislators, to change election results.

5. President Trump’s legal team and other Trump associates instructed Republicans in multiple states to create false electoral slates and transmit those slates to Congress and the National Archives.

6. President Trump summoned and assembled a violent mob in Washington and directed them to march on the US Capitol.

7. As the violence was underway, President Trump ignored multiple pleas for assistance and failed to take immediate action to stop the violence and instruct his supporters to leave the Capitol.


.......and still only 7 Repub senators voted to convict him in the second impeachment. Most of them because they were not running for re-election so they didn't have to face the cult's wrath at the ballot box.
Nothing Trump could do will result in removal from office by impeachment so effectively there is no check on his behavior after his Court's ruling on Monday.
AND HE KNOWS IT

When the matter of the United States of America vs Richard Nixon was before the court, a case involving Dick's claim he had absolute executive privilege authority covering the Watergate tapes, the SC came to a unanimous decision in 54 days from the time it agreed to hear the case.

Looking back: The Supreme Court decision that ended Nixon’s presidency

I think its fair to observe the Court felt a degree of urgency to decide the case in an expedited manner because of the gravity of the issues at hand.

Apparently, the Court felt similarly compelled to decide the CO ballot disqualification case quickly due to the timeline of upcoming primary votes. Deciding it, in technically divided fashion, in less than a month after oral arguments.

Then there's Trump's bizarre claim of absolute immunity for any crime he may have committed while serving in office. Today makes 113 days since the Court agreed to hear the case. This, after Jack Smith implored it to hear the case earlier since he, AND EVERYONE ELSE, understood Trump's claim was designed to delay his criminal trial for insurrection.

Special counsel asks Supreme Court to immediately decide if Trump is immune from Jan. 6 prosecution

We are still waiting for a decision 2 months after the completion of oral arguments in a case that is arguably less complex than the ballot disqualification one.

In the CO case, not acting quickly meant Trump's name would not appear on the primary ballot. In the insurrection case, dragging their feet for as long as possible means the insurrection trial will not begin, or certainly not conclude, before the Nov. election. In both instances the speed, or lack thereof, in deciding the cases are to Trump's advantage.

If one is looking for a reason not to trust this court's ability to impartially apply the law, beyond upside down flags and refusals to recuse for clear conflicts of interest, one needs to look no further. Yet there is Trump, claiming the system is treating him unfairly.

Oh shit, why didn't you tell me Chris Truax thought they were slow walking it? LOL You will literally swallow and regurgitate anything for your party. Rather sad.

If you knew even a tiny bit about our Federal Court system, you might not sound like such a useful idiot. Then again, probably not.

Hey stupid… he gave examples of the SC fast tracking important rulings.

And then illustrated how long these ruling took

FYI if you want to bitch at someone - look to your cult. Garland and Smith delayed 2 1/2 years before bringing this bullshit case.
 
Look Dems all you cry babies have to do is convince the American people to give you the power to remake the SCOTUS.

I bet Dems regret starting this shit with the Senate confirmation nuclear option now, your rules, you will hate it!
