The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"It's not Bizzaro. It's not uncommon for criminal cases to take more than a year to go from indictment to trial, especially when there are novel questions of law and the defendant is well-lawyered. That's pretty standard stuff. They had to expedite the 14th Amendment cases super-fast because there were a bunch of state courts/state agencies that were facing the choice whether to have him on the ballot or not. Since there's no comparable urgency on the criminal case, they only expedited it really fast, not super fast (under regular order, this case would have been heard next term, with oral arguments sometime in October and a decision in 2025)."

You don't think it is urgent for voters to know if a candidate on the ballot is a convicted criminal or not?

Besides, It is important for SCOTUS to rule on presidential immunity before the election so Joe Biden can get Seal Team 6 trained up to kill all of his political enemies before the election.
