Supreme Court Slated to Take Unprecedented Action

It was learned today that the Supreme Court is considering taking action to remove the President of the Unites States, Donald J. Trump, from office by court order. According to a source close to one Justice, briefs have been prepared that lay out the Constitutional justification for such an action. Discussions have been ongoing for three weeks on this matter, explains our source, with the Justices closely divided on whether the SCOTUS can actually do what is proposed.

A noted Supreme Court follower and commentator explained: "Normally, the court only acts on cases brought before it after initial rulings in the lower courts. However, the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction when it comes to matters presidential and disputes between states. Apparently, two states with very large populations have filed complaints regarding the President's actions. Those complaints have led to consideration of this heretofore unknown process. There is no precedent in Supreme Court history for independent action, but such action is not specifically prohibited by the Constitution."

A spokesperson for a leading conservative think tank, who insisted on anonymity, argued vehemently against such an action. "If the Justices do this, they will be overturning the will of the American People. It cannot be allowed to happen. Donald Trump is the lawfully elected President, and can only be removed from office through impeachment in the House and conviction and removal by a 2/3 vote of the Senate."

Complicating the matter, newly appointed Justice Gorsuch might not be able to participate in deliberations, due to an obvious conflict of interest, since he was appointed by President Trump. One person close to Justice Gorsuch explained that the Justice would be opposed to recusing himself if this process goes forward. Apparently Gorsuch feels that his opinion in the matter would be left unconsidered should the case be decided by only 8 Justices. Further, that source wondered about a tied court and what that might mean to the validity of the deliberations.

An attempt to reach White House officials resulted only in "No comment" statements from everyone contacted. One White House staffer said that nobody on Trump's staff had even heard of this potential action by the SCOTUS.

We will continue to probe our sources within the Justice Department and Federal Court System to clarify what appears to be about to happen. Since this poses the risk of creating a constitutional crisis, we will focus all of our efforts on learning whether such a case will be considered and what might happen if the court decides to remove President Trump.

This sums up every article posted at the DUmp.

Thought it had to be something from the laughable Palmer Report.  Or a tweet from some leftist conspiracy theorist.

MM has spent most of the day today trying to crush the hopes and dreams of the DUmmies that actually believe the Louise Mensch tweets.

I take it he's POed that Buggee and several others like her on DU - who are not unhinged because they've never been within a mile of a hinge - might beat him out for DOTY, the way TMN's ravings beat him out last year.

I thank MM for the laugh.
My schadenboner suggests MM do nothing to stop the DUmmys form their delusions.

For those veterans of watching DUmp lunacy, they continue to out kick the coverage of insanity.  Year by year.

9. Right now, we're being bombarded by stories from Twitter and blogs that

have no more truth in them that this fake piece I just wrote. I can write fake news that looks like real news almost as fast as I can type, and I have enough background in politics, government and international affairs to make them look possibly credible. All I'd need would be a blog with a good title and a Twitter account for that blog.

I choose not to do that. Others have made different choices. I am weary to death of unsubstantiated rumors and speculative articles that pretend to be actual news. Anonymous sources and somewhat plausible scenarios are easy to come up with. If such blogs and spurious "news" feeds the wishful thinking of readers, it quickly spreads through sharing.

I could do that. I will not do that. I loathe people who do it. The techniques are simple and easily recognized. I see them in use every day on DU. I wish I did not.

Background in politics, government and international affairs, my ass.  Get a load of this liver spotted old blowhard.  He thinks hanging out and posting nonsense at democrat underground with the other shitgibbons makes for a background in politics, government and international affairs.

He wishes he didn't know this shit.  He's as stupid as nadin.

It has just been released on the Palmer Report that President in exile hitlery clinton will make an appeal to the supreme court on monday to have President Trump arrested and have her reinstated to her rightful place in the white house.

In a totally unrelated press release, Jill Stein wishes to thank all the donors to the recount fund for her new yacht.

Well, Wocky, if you ever want to try that gig I can suggest a couple names for your blog: Clinton News Network; Clinton Bull Stories. The initials are already in use, but nobody will notice the difference.

There is this "Mensch" person that seems to be setting them all atwitter.  I hadn't heard of her(?) until now but these Fitzmas-like predictions have been comedy gold.

My Schadenboner keeps getting upgrades every day from those.
