Well, that’s the end, guys!
The two federal cases are being shut down, Jack Smith is retiring, and there’s no way the Georgia case goes forward if a literal conviction is paused.
America was nice while it lasted!

What makes you think this is over?
This is exactly what you’d expect if the judge wants to sentence Trump to jail. He can’t do it now, it would be immediately overturned by the SCOTUS.
So he has no choice but to wait until 2029 (or possibly sooner, in the unlikely event that Trump is impeached again).
Trump can’t get impeached until 2027 at the soonest because of the Republican controlled House.
Even then, the Senate will prevent his removal.
As I said, he’s unlikely to be impeached. But it’s not impossible, if his deport+tariff plan sparks a Depression scale stock market crash and his popularity plummets. In that case, the oligarchs and populists of the GOP might agree they prefer Vance.
Supreme Court has no power over a state court ruling.
Unless someone keeps appealing to a higher court and non along the way reject it, you can always reach the supreme court.
Of course they do. To name just one example, in Bush v Gore the SCOTUS overturned a ruling made by the Florida Supreme Court.
