I'm sure Soros junior has dear-old-dad's briefcase full of cash stuffed and ready to be handed to Roberts when the time arises.
There is not one government department or agency that is NOT CORRUPT now!!
Roberts from Malta and Italian satellites?
I wonder what the blackmail is.
The immunity case is already on the docket. If it covers state level charges, all the cases, with the exception of Mar-a-Lago disappear in a cloud of smoke. I think this case illustrates the need for presidential immunity.
My point is that the Bragg case can not escape the impact of a ruling affirming broad presidential immunity. Justice Roberts is an institutionalist. What the Democrats have done in weaponizing the justice system to cripple or hobble Candidates for presidential office has gotten even Roberts’ attention. During oral arguments, he sided with Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. Justice Coney is a wild card. But there’s reason to be hopeful.
“Speculation is running rampant about the need for a “hook” to get the Supremes to consider cert on the bogus Bragg conviction.”
It ls called an emergency appeal and is made to the circuit Court of which about half the judges were appointed by republicans.
The request for a stay is called an application – a brief that summarizes the facts and history of the case and outlines the arguments why the lower court’s ruling should be put on hold. The application for a stay goes, at least at first, to just one justice, known as the “circuit justice,” who handles emergency appeals from the geographic area where the case originated. The circuit justice can grant or deny the application on her own, or she can refer it to the full court for all of the justices to vote on it. The circuit justice also may order the other side in the case to file a brief responding to the request; depending on the case, that brief may be due within a few days (if not sooner).The request for a stay is called an application – a brief that summarizes the facts and history of the case and outlines the arguments why the lower court’s ruling should be put on hold.

The Dean Phillips trial balloon is the big tell. Internal party polling must be horrendous. But beyond that, there’s the chance that Trump will be vindicated on every front by a decisive immunity ruling by the highest court.

I’m not 100% sure that Roberts is the sole arbiter of whether a particular case gets heard or not. I thought I remember reading somewhere once that if a certain number of associate justices want something heard the CJ yields the decision.
