Justice has a broken punch clock.
But now the “shutdown hurts the Dems most” logic makes sense.
Well isn’t that convenient
Justice delayed is justice denied.
So now we know why Trump is big on the shut down.
This is getting Kafkaesque.
This decision is going to be cited every time a defendant asks for a delay as a result of circumstances entirely under the defendant’s control.
OT, but this should be fun. Can you imagine if Obama or any other Dem did such a thing?
But her emails…
Wonder if this is the big reason for the Trump about-face on the shutdown. Wouldn’t surprise me.
Wonder how long it will last. (About as long as it takes the new House to blast it open again?)
I can’t imagine anyone in his Administration is that smart. But they know an advantage when they see one. This came gift wrapped for them.
LMAO, so THAT’s why he shut it down until whenever!
The guy can’t add 2+2 so I’m sure he couldn’t have possibly seen this would happen to the case, but at first I really wondered.
Trumpism
- Flood media with ads funded by wealthy foreign donors, foreign corporations, and foreign governments.
- When lawsuits start, shut down the government.
- Pardon all accomplices.
- Enjoy your vast wealth. You are untouchable.

I want to know WHY is the DOJ defending Trump in this emoluments lawsuits?
I want to know why my tax dollars are being spent to protect him in breaking the law?
Ordinarily it would be a joke to suggest a calculus so crudely objective as to produce this result. But here we can take the Trump Foundation as the model MO. Whatever works is fine.
That’s a convenient trick.
I’d say it’s a very clear argument for why the DOJ should not serve as defense attorneys for government malfeasance.
Maybe the Appeals Court should shut down Trump during the shut down.
This not legal. The Emoluments case is against Trump, the individual. Trump cannot be allowed to use the DOJ as his personal law team.
I tend to think the emoluments case is a longshot anyhow and the optics on freezing it are terrible for Spanky. This could well be a net win for dems.
