It is legally the right decision. All the reasons have been explained here for months.

But there will be great gnashing of teeth and rending of clothing on TDPT.



Well gee, your opinion is a fricking shocker

Roberts writes the opinion in the ultimate frick YOU to Trump.


Gorsuch and Kavanaugh joined him, filing a concurring opinion. A grand jury does have the right to see his business documents and a 7-2 decision affirms that.

Don't sweat it. This isn't over.

Remember...Trump objected to this subpoena purely on "supremacy" grounds. He did not object to the subpoena on its "merits" (which any party [or affected non-party] can do).

This will go back to the lower court, where his lawyers will object to the subpoena and seek a protective order as a "backstop" (a real one that will get crushing non-dischargeable economic sanctions and jailtime for anyone who divulges or leaks it).

It will never have wound its way through the courts by the election.

On the bright side, one of overrated Tom Friedman’s stipulations for Biden to debate Trump will be met

So this isn’t going to be decided until after the election?

To state the obvious, seems that Mazars will be a separate decision, due in a few minutes, and most likely by Roberts.

So basically the Supreme Court threw the president a bone and said you have further grounds that we did not address

The Alito dissent seems to suggest Mazars also went against Trump. I’m trying to pull the language now.

In a footnote, Roberts notes that the "daylight between our opinion" and the Thomas "dissent" is "not as great as that label might suggest." "We agree that Presidents are neither absolutely immune from state criminal subpoenas nor insulated by a heightened need standard." Here's some key language: "We agree that Presidents may challenge specific subpoenas as impeding their Article II functions." "And although we affirm while Justice Thomas would vacate, we agree that this case will be remanded to the District Court."
