@pbsnews: Current and former presidents have immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts they took while in office, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday. The court sent the case back to a lower court to determine how the decision will affect special counsel Jack Smith's 2020 election case against former President Donald Trump. The 6-3 decision stipulated that immunity does not extend to a president or former president's unofficial acts. William Brangham analyzes the court's ruling. #jacksmith #donaldtrump #trumpelectioncase #presidentialimmunity #trumpcase #supremecourtruling #supremecourt #pbsnews #pbsnewshour #trumpnews #politicaltiktok #tiktokpolitics #trumpimmunity #scotus
So when do his unconstitutional EO’s stop being official business. And since he is clearly violating his oath of office what can we do? Class action lawsuit

I feel the Chief Justice wrote the opinion so he could moderate the more conservative wing. Just imagine if Thomas or Alito wrote for the Court.

This and the Chevron ruling are strategically brilliant moves. It will devastate our country, but Republicans played the game very well (if the goal is to gain more power, money and control)

Why are ya'll acting like this is a new thing. 1982 Nixon vs Fitzgerald gave presidential immunity. It's been there for 40+ years and the SC affirmed it. 😂

All his campaign activities aren’t immune. He encouraged the group from a podium as part of his campaigning. But really, the corrupt courts decide.
