| Supreme Court to decide if Trump banned from Colorado ballot in historic case |
| 2024-01-06 |
| [FOX video, CNN story below] The US Supreme Court said Friday it will review the Colorado Supreme Court’s unprecedented decision removing former President Donald Trump from that state’s ballot. The court scheduled oral arguments for February 8. Trump remains on the primary ballot as the lower-court ruling disqualifying him has been put on hold pending Supreme Court action. If the justices do conclude Trump is ineligible for public office, then any votes cast for him wouldn’t count. The high court’s decision to hear the case puts the nine justices squarely in the middle of the 2024 election as voting starts in the early primary contests and represents the court’s most significant involvement in a presidential race since its highly consequential decision 23 years ago in Bush v. Gore."

| #8 Just dumb luck that more of the justices aren't like Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson. It's too bad we have to rely on luck instead of the Constitution. |

| #7 No, not true. The supreme court said they would hear it and decide, and the date for that discission is one month after the printing deadline. Which was yesterday, So Trump will be on it no matter what the court says they can do. |

| #5 Can anybody 'splain it to me why it's not a simple case of "innocent until proven guilty"? I read some bigshot lawyer said Jack Smith hasn't even charged Trump with insurrection or sedition. |

| #2 The most pessimistic folks I know believe that this will be at worst 7-2 for Trump. The problem is that no matter what gets decided, it's on: when the court finds for Trump, the Left will go absolutely bugshiat insane and declare SCOTUS 'illegitimate', and anything less than a unanimous, ringing finding for Trump will be seen by many (if not a majority) on the Right as 'the fix being in'. Perilous days ahead, friends. Mike |

| #1 Will it be a Constitution based vote, or a Political party-line vote? If it goes Political party-line and the written opinions show it. Then win, or lose... We As Americans have serious problem and will be in the end stages of this Republic. |
