Are you about to get him this time?
Will they find evidence which would lead to Senate conviction on impeachment? I have not seen the tax returns or supporting data, so it would be silly to opine on that issue.

With people like you, you are 100% correct in that statement. Thanks for playing.

They think proving trump isn’t a billionaire but rather only worth hundreds and hundreds of millions would be a le epic own even though it’s more than they will ever have in their life.
The thing is none of this can be determined by tax returns.

So OP....no cliff notes with your twist on it?
I have found that the reaction almost-uniformly ignores the legal analysis and devolves into a partisan pep rally, rendering the substantive explanation rather pointless.

En Banc request for rehearing first, then to the Supremes.
Dissent IDs the bullshite in the first two pages.

Neoli Reo, a Trump nominee to the appeals court, dissented. Judge Tatel (who authored the opinion) was nominated by President Bill Clinton and Judge Patricia Millett, who joined him in the majority, was selected by President Barack Obama.

6 pages from the majority and 68 in the dissent.
Actually, 66 from the majority and 68 in dissent. The majority opinion is very well written. It would be a political stretch for the Supreme Court to reverse. Frankly, the dissent by Rao reads like an attempt to get on Trump's shortlist for Supreme Court, since the way to advance in this administration is to fawn over Trump.

This is why no one takes you seriously and I honestly think you mean well, but exactly what you said and how you said it is why I think you suck as a poster...
Most here appreciate an unbiased answer and when they do not agree with the substance of the answer, it is not an attack on you or necessarily partisan but an expression of their support OR dislike of the substance...
Sorry your ego does not allow your brain to separate the two...

Won't be a stretch at all.

quote:Trump has the option of requesting an en banc review. There are eleven judges on the Court ... Seven Dem appointees and four GOP appointees. Merrick Garland is Chief Judge. Thus, Trump may see such a request as being pointless, but may do it anyway just to buy time.
Yay, now what?
He also has the option of an appeal to SCOTUS.

The Supreme Court should be wholly unconcerned with politics, should it not?

So just to clarify. As an attorney, you think it is ok for them to subpoena his tax returns with no evidence of a crime and then use them as evidence in a potential impeachment trial?

How many times in the last year or two and we witnessed a huge celebratory flurry of threads regarding some unimportant procedural ruling in favor of Trump? Dozens of separate instances.
How many times have I or one of the other attorneys on this forum tried to explain the non-substantive nature of the ruling and explain/predict the most-likely subsequent events? Fewer, because most of the attorneys have come to see such explanations as pointless.
What is the majority of the reaction to the persons trying to provide such explanations? More often than not, it is comprised almost entirely of insulting epithets and misrepresentations of the political views of the attorney trying to provide the explanation.
How often are those explanations and predictions proven true, within days or weeks? Almost uniformly.

Given the current state of the law, this sort of investigation would indeed seem to be within the authority of the House, but it is not a “slam dunk“ in my view.

You have major insecurities on this board Hank. I don’t understand why you come around if you despise the posters so much.
Might by time to take a hiatus.
