6-3 SCOTUS vote: President has "official" immunity

Post by Mojo »

The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled 6-3 that the President has immunity and can't be prosecuted after leaving office for "official acts."

This is so beyond mindlowing disgusting and disheartening. America is dead. The Founding Fathers should be absolutely devastated.


https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/suprem ... rcna159539

What to know about the Supreme Court's ruling on Trump's immunity appeal:
The Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald Trump has some immunity from prosecution in his federal election interference case. The 6-3 decision, which is complex, further delays special counsel Jack Smith's prosecution.
Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the majority, rejected Trump's broad immunity claims and said that Trump only has immunity for his "official" acts as president. The high court did not determine what constitutes an official act in this case, leaving that to the lower court.

I'm not getting "absolute" out of this. They essentially just decided to not decide. We're in the same spot where there is endless hair-splitting over what does and doesn't constitute an official act.

The supreme court is worthless in it's current state. They are configured only to cause damage to the country at this point.

The only upside is that the imperative to keep Trump out of the White House should be super-turbocharged from this.

America is great - I’ve never been happier and I’m always happy

It’s officially summertime- doing what I want from Ventura down to SD with trips to LV

Who is president- who cares
Cody Rhodes is sissy champ whoever runs the country

Maybe court could vote for me
Bach in Vegas and Fasterpussycat at Whisky same night- court would be 5-4 but who would win 🇺🇸

Biden is President. That, if anything, is the only glimmer of hope here.

I've already posted several thing that Biden needs to do as President to save our country.

No. 1 Making it illegal for convicted felons to run for President.

Restore Roe v. Wade immediately.

On that note, this is truly a disgusting fucking day for the US, a mere 3 days before the Fourth of July.

And I'm out . . .

Biden is President at least until Jan 2025 - would this not apply to him as well? You reap what you sow. Dark Brandon time. Heck, line 'em up - anyone who has committed the definition of treason—target practice. Of course, I'm being facetious, but isn't this the game we're playing now? And technically, unless the Constitution is dissolved, doesn't 2A say I have a constitutional right to bear arms against a tyrannical government? We'll suspend the "organized militia" for this fantasy.

You can blame Trump and his stacking of the SCOTUS with far-right nutjobs for that. America is royally fucked now if Trump wins in November.

Yep. All that. Their job was to keep Jack Smith out of court until after the election and they did it.

This is the country that slaughtered millions of bison to starve the Indians out. That mentality still bubbles beneath the surface for many, and raises its paranoid and entitled head from time to time.

biden is a joke, his people run the country. He probably doesn't know what day it is or if his poop is solid or not. Trump had his day in the sun and didn't drain the swamp. neither is worth being re elected. They both are an embarrassment to the USA. Praise the lord and pass the ammunition. ..

His people are doing fucking good, then. Your people want to saddle us with a narcissistic sociopath and turn this country into a puritan shithole.

Fuck off, Mr Both Sides Bad. People like you made Trump and now you're going to walk away and pretend you didn't start the dumpster fire.

Fuck your tone policing too. Four years of you assclowns bitching about "liberal snowflakes" offended by mean words, especially Trump's mean words, and now you're asshurt over my mean words? Eat shit. This is the world you wanted. Now quit your whining, you little baby.

You proudly stood with a narcissistic sociopath for years. That's a true testament to your character, or lack thereof.

Don't count on it. Under Trump authoritarian rule he'll likely bring prohibition back with all the other idiotic draconian policies.

You may be right. Aren’t most of Trump’s supporters boycotting alcohol anyway since Bud Light became sponsored by a tranny?

So a president could decide on his own that a domestic terrorist lives at a beach club in South Florida and order a military team to take him out and because he did this as his official sworn duty of keeping the country safe - he couldn't be prosecuted for it? Interesting....

This was my first thought, Biden could take out Trump, and as long as he did it in an official capacity, he'd be fine.
Setting up the framework for a dictatorship while a political opponent is still in office would be the dumbest shit you could do if this was anywhere else.
Not in the US. They know the librul pussies don't have the guts to do anything. Even though Biden runs a crime family, and the FBI, the CIa an the LGBTABC+*/, despite being a useless demented fool.

Mullet is probably right - they'd be devastated to see a black guy in charge for 8 years, which is the root cause of the current shitshow.
