The decision of the Supreme Court to review the immunity question in the Trump prosecution has brought forth the usual (and a couple not so usual) attacks on the integrity of the Court. While some are calling the justices now part of the "insurrection," others are accusing them of "slow-walking" the appeal to push any trial past the election. MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin added that, due to the delay for a review of the matter, she was "beyond terrified for our country."
In reality, the claim that the Court is moving slowly is factually and historically untrue. Indeed, in comparison to most cases, this is a NASCAR pace for an institution that is more focused on issuing right rather rapid decisions.
Some of the usual voices immediately came forward to declare that, once again, the justices are exposing themselves as raw partisans. MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow was declared the review of the matter as "BS" and exposes "the cravenness of the court." She further declared, again, that the action undermined "legitimacy of the court."
Mary Trump, the niece of the former president, went further and declared that "the Supreme Court of the United States just reminded us with this corrupt decision that the insurrection did not fail–it never ended."
Former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, R., Wyo., said that the review effectively "suppresses critical evidence that Americans deserve to hear."
