As right leaning as the SCOTUS is right now, these cases are on the fast track, and despite the current makeup, the SCOTUS still has had a long history of trying to avoid undermining lower courts.
Think about it, all these false accusations coming from Trump and his camp about an out of control FBI are nonsense knowing anything they do has to be based on probable cause, warrants and FISA courts. And most of the judges involved in all those convictions were REPUBLICAN appointees.
I am not saying there isn't any danger, but I think the more that comes out about him, to COURTS, the less likely he is to get away with it.
I have to admit, I gave Burr the benefit of the doubt, and was proven wrong, he is acting like a personal lawyer. But like I said, there are plenty in the intel community and prosecutors nationwide of both parties that see through his shit. The hard part is getting more of the public to see the same.
