The Supreme Court has officially rejected former President Trump’s request to block records from being handed over to the House Select Committee investigating Jan. 6. Justice Clarence Thomas was the lone dissenter but offered no opinion in the unsigned ruling.
The move clears the way for the House committee to obtain Trump-era schedules, call logs, emails, and other requested documents they say are needed in their investigation.
The Hill reports:
The committee said it had begun receiving records Wednesday night just hours after a ruling that chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Vice Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wy.) hailed as “a victory for the rule of law and American democracy.”
“Our work goes forward to uncover all the facts about the violence of January 6th and its causes,” they said in a joint statement, emphasizing that their effort aims “to ensure nothing like that day ever happens again.”
The justices wrote that although the unprecedented dispute between a former president and lawmakers raised “serious and substantial concerns,” the Washington, D.C.,-based federal appeals court had suitably analyzed the issues at hand.
“Because the Court of Appeals concluded that President Trump’s claims would have failed even if he were the incumbent, his status as a former President necessarily made no difference to the court’s decision,” the court wrote.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote separately to note his disagreement with part of the lower appeals court’s reasoning.
OK, time to get Biden and Obama’s information that has been protected by executive privilege. Then we’ll really see it fly….
Yeah…and who is going to do that? the feckless RINO’S who are in office right now? Good Luck with that.
Trump, the Weak Puke, will have the Communist Supreme Court arrested.
Except for the token black.
Albert you are a idiot. We will be nuked by russia soon per demented biden
Useless to try, Republicans or conservatives get nothing.
They need to win elections.
They won the 2020 election
Trump said so.
Trump does not lie.
Fox news lies.
We need to see Biden’s records. He quietly had his records archived before he became VP. There was still enough in public domain for Peter Schweitzer to write a book about the Biden Crime Family.
Biden’s records like Trump’s are archived on a regular basis.
Biden’s records were certainly archived at the end of his two terms as vice president, and his time in the Senate.
There is no shortage of books on the Trump Crime Family, more to follow.
Peter Schweitzer is a nobody with a big mouth
and you would know
I agree, was Obama’s privledge info given in the Russia, Russia,Russia investagation???
That would have been Trump’s responsibility.
Trump is a weak puke.
Ypu braindead idiot. Biden left our people
You are the weak puke, Albert!
That request will be met with “Oh my, so sad, too bad, too late to do anything about it.” That’s not how I feel mind you.
I what to see Nancy’s records too!
Good luck with that.
I thought all records were to be available to the citizens?
You will get to see them all just as soon as Trump is reinstalled in the White House
Did Trump expose all of of Nancy’s records prior to last Jan. 20.
Why not?
Weak puke?
Why can Democrats get Republicans records but Republicans cannot get anything from the NSA, CIA, FBI, DOJ or any other Democrat controlled organization and if they do get anything it is so heavily redacted it is useless. It does not seem to matter who is in control, the Republicans cannot get anything and as for law, the Democrats just do not respond. This government is DC is totally broken and corrupt, all of it Republicans and Democrats and especially the DOJ and FBI, all of the FBI field agents included.
I only wish I could say you were wrong…but, sadly, it’s true! The “swamp” has become a nation-wide cesspool!
Trump had four long years to drain the swamp.
It only got deeper.
All those Trump Turds.
So true!!
Republicans are weak pukes.
Pelosi is the one who failed to do her job and call up the National Guard. I want the committee to see her hidden records.
Since she is the head of the commitee, she is not going to let
anyone see anything to prove this is witch hunt # 3.
Why didn’t Trump show all of Nancy?
Trump is a Weak Puke?
you are a broken record
We’ll see how much of a puke Trump is when he & the military take down the deep state. Biden & his administration are All headed to Gitmo.
News flash, happening now.
3 states have confirmed fraud against Trump. This is all he needs to be reinstated. In fact he’s still our president. Some people can’t handle the truth. Name one thing that Biden did to better our country.
The National Guard reports to the Commander and Chief not the Speaker of the House.
Keep in mind that the National Guard is well trained in use of fully automatic assault weapons?
How many would have died?
Trump did not want the National Guard there, just Trump “Patriots”
National Guard deployment can have have unintended consequences.
Deployment at Kent State was the beginning of the end of the Vietnam War (the American War against the people of Vietnam).
Go Guard, making people dead is Job One.
Albert, you are one big liar and one weak puke! You, Albert know nothing! Pelosi was in control of protecting the Capitol with the Capital Police….gee, Albert…where were they? The National Guard was there…ordered there by President Trump…but Pelosi didn’t want them there, that would ruin her plan. Remember, Pelosi let the NG sleep in garages…that is the weak puke she is! Get your facts right, puke Albert!
Since the commitee is not set up legal, why would they do this?????
The Justice Department thinks it is legal.
The Supreme Court thinks it is legal.
That is why they are doing this.
Trump thinks that it should be llegal
Trump is in charge of nothing.
Old world message, “ What’s good for the goose is good for the gander”
A simple fair idea is it not?
I agree with you there! It’s time to play fair,one side the same as the other. I think they should only have one side, the American party, stop the fighting and get something done for this great country of ours!!
Betty, I think that you are onto something, we would be just a one party country, the American Party.
That would end all the partisan bickering.
One Party, one Great Leader.
Just like China, Russia and North Korea.
Trump just got a good goosing.
Trump is no gander.
Trump is a weak puke.
He could not lock up Hillary.
He is all mouth.
Oh, Albert…President Trump did more than lock evil Hillary up….do some research….when you see Hillary, that is not her….it is a double! You must do some research on all the flights into Gitmo and all that has been happening at Gitmo!!!
The scotus of this country are without a doubt the most fear laden scumbags to ever hold a position of power for jurists! These inmates from the asylum are going to regret their decisions in favor of Democrats! Not one of them are Patriotic! After the FBI murdered Scalia and Roberts adopted 2children for his own sick pleasure he is comprised! Soto mayor is dumb, Kavanaugh a willing idiot, Barrett a joke, Kagan is so ugly, she
Could be on scream 😱 Gorsuch a pansy, and well liberals on the court are residing in Bizzaro World! Christain GODHELP US ALL
All three of Trump’s SJC appointees voted against him.
He appointed them to vote for him
He should fire them.
By Tweet.
Why did Trump fail to to put the people who murdered Scalia in jail?
The very same reason that Trump failed to Hillary in jail.
Trump is a weak puke!
Albert, you weak puke, you are so in the dark! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Another case of the SC refusing to do their job, just side with the witch of the HOUSE.
3/9ths of the court is owned by Trump
All three think that Trump is a bad dude.
Humpty Trumpty sat on his rusty wall.
Humpty Trumpty had a great fall.
Humpty Trumpty was not a King after all.
A good mental status exam couldn’t explain you!
The wheels of justice grind on.
And Humpty Trumpty’s rusty steel fence came tumbling down.
All the King’s men…..as it turns out Trump was no King.
Just a moderately successful third generation real estate shyester
It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
The Supreme Court makes us feel so good.
Love the headline.
Trump and defeat is pure clickbate.
How about Obama’s birth certificate? How about his “college transcripts”? How about why Michelle Obama lost her license to practice law??? HOW ABOUT IT??!!!
The Supreme Court is useless except for a few. They are afraid of the Democrats. No one should answer any questions from the sham 1/6,committee until Pelosi, Sargent of Arms and the DC mayor come clean. Pelosi started this mess. People know what she did. Come on Trouble Maker come clean.
I can’t believe the SCOTUS made that ruling! Very sad. We’re not going to have a country left when Biden is finished messing it up. And the highest court in the country goes along with it. Why aren’t they ruling on all the laws Biden is breaking, starting with the southern border. Instead they’re still on the witch hunt after our best President.
It is because they are all a part of the Deep State, the Cabal that is trying to destroy our great country for a NWO. The FBI, the CIA, the SCOTUS, the Democrats, the Rhinos, the corrupt mayors and governors….they are all part of this evil plan! We must remember, God is in control and God wins and Satan loses! Justice is coming!
the Dems don’t remember that what goes around comes around. It’s time the Republicans start showing their grit and going after Democrats as hard as they go after us. For some reason, they all have an entitled attitude.
Just wait until they discover the problem started from their side of the aisle! Looking forward to how all the spins of deflection play out.
I wish they would spend the time we’re paying them for on the legislative business of government and stop wasting their time with all the investigative crap!
I’m sure the justices did not comment on the legality of Pelosi’s partisan investigation of the J-6 events after Trump was found innocent of any responsibilty for the so-called breach of the Capitol building, either.
We want to see pelosis records phone calls and all video of jan 6th
The walls are crashing in on the Democrats and they’re in free fall panic mode. Problem is: Trump got what he wanted and outsmarted the puppets again. This Sting is going to hurt.
You are so right! The Democrats and Rhinos are so scared…they know what is coming and they cannot stop it! Now they are using this Russia and Ukraine plan to deflect, but they will fail again. People are waking up…we want our lives back, our children back in school, no more masks, no jabs, Fauci has to go…Gitmo is waiting for him! Justice is coming.
WWG1WGA!!!!!
Why did all three of Trump’s Supreme Court nominees just vote against him?
Does Trump have any idea?
He does not know the smell of a Rinos?
He confuses the smell with Stormy’s stink star?
