It certainly does matter. With only 8 signers out of 435 members of Congress it's obvious that this hypocritical demand is not even supported by a majority of their fellow Democrats let alone a majority of the HoR so claiming that it's a "Letter from Congress" is misleading at best and you know it.

I hope the Court tells them to take their opinions and stick them where the sun don't shine.

Sounds like you didn't read it.

EDIT: I think it will be a moot point anyway as I expect the DC Court of Appeals to rule Trump doesn't have criminal immunity and the SCOTUS to not take it up.

I wasn't talking about Trump, you were in a lame attempt to change the subject which I ignored. I was talking about the letter from the 8 democrat reps who want Clarence Thomas to recuse himself. You know the ones led by that idiot Johnson who thinks that islands can be capsized by putting too many people on them?

The whole point of the letter involves Trump.

As does everything you post bud, but as I have said already the demands of just eight partisan and rather dimwitted members of Congress do not equal a demand by the entire US Congress as you are so desperately trying to imply.

And again, it’s the content of the letter that matters, not how many signed it. Care to discuss that? It’s why I posted it and it’s in line with the code of conduct the SCOTUS recently created.

You are exactly right.I'll take bets before 2026 there will be a Calamity, Catastrophe event that will require both parties to "Come Together" right now. Over me, that song is heartbeat of the Rich left Wing Socialist and the Cuck Republicans.Just look at the Elite and how they are the ones, Who live in wealth around this planet.They are the ones who start wars.But now days unlike the Kings and Battle Queens of old...They don't participate . So you are right The USA is headed for a one party rule. I will walk out on a plank and predict 2024 is the year that will bring about a One Party Rule for The United States.And as a "Republic" the country dies. For those who are young. Your Politicians today who look and act like they are so suave are the same people that couldn't get anywhere in life on their own out of college without their parents money.You with your common sense are smarter than these people. And they will never let you,Into their World Wide Country Club....Why you with a mind that hasn't been Educated are a threat. and Democracy requires the Elimination of threats.

The oral arguments before the DC Court of Appeals can be heard here by audio.

Once again my objection is you calling it a "Letter from Congress" rather that the more accurate "Letter from a tiny number of partisan (and provably stupid) Democrat Members of Congress, most of who have their own ethical issues".

It is the letterhead whether you like it, or not. Do I have to post a picture?

No it might cause the forum to capsize.

So I guess President Trump raised the question of why we don't have our own "Iron Dome"? Seems a pretty valid question since the democrats seem determined to help Iran get "the big bomb". It was suggested on Gutfeld! that our missile defense be called a "dome over" in deference to orange man bad. I wonder if our Secretary of Defense is available for comment or is he still AWOL?

I would expect the military leadership has that under control while the civilian leadership is compromised.
