Supreme Court Justice now trashing the grand jury process [View all]
Laura Rozen @lrozen 37sDoes Alito have a single redeeming feature? raises “the old saw about indicting a ham sandwich” presumably to further Trump lawyer batshit argument it is a slippery slope if a former president ever held accountable for criminal conduct.

Alito: Skeptical of layers of protection in criminal justice system. Projecting bad faith? SC: Advice of AG, grand jury finding of probable cause. Alito, a former prosecutor of all people, says a grand jury can indict a Jan sandwich. Cynical, hypocritical, and wrong.
...Alito questions the legitimacy of every other level of justice's authority except his branches's own.
