(but hoping your are right)

...with Roberts waking up on the good side of the bed.

I would guess a 5-4 decision in favor of releasing the taxes with Roberts joining the liberals and Kagan writing the majority opinion, but it is always foolish to predict the SCOTUS (even if it’s fun, and I can’t help it).

I don't see how they can ignore clear law that the House can get the president's tax returns, FFS. Pisses me off.

SCOTUS. They have ruled against the House time and time again re Trump.

I sure hope SCROTUS gets it right today.

Not that it will stop me from demanding we expand it and impose term limits.

He'll bypass them in a heartbeat with more corruption, and if he is protected we'll see criminals lining up to run. It would also show trump got to them and corrupted the outcome by bribes, threats, or blackmail. Wonder how many times he's tried to call or contact Roberts on this case? Could a judge who was called or contacted and someone (trump) tried to corrupt the outcome, wouldn't that justice be required by law to recuse from the case, or be impeached ?

Some may hope, that exposing the taxes will be the 'big knockout' blow - it may not be, like Mueller, manafort, flynn, etc.

Today, being at a more vulnerable time for trump, may 'grease the skids' though.

Just like US v Nixon and US v Clinton

We haven't been a nation of laws for 3 1/2 years.

I don't expect them to do what's right.

With Roberts writing the decision to put the control of the Judiciary firmly in his hand. This is truly his legacy decision.

I've been following this for awhile so wasn't shocked.

Good job!
