Sotomayor says immunity ruling makes a president ‘king above the law’ | US supreme court | The Guardian

In a stark dissent from the conservative-majority US supreme court’s opinion granting Donald Trump some immunity from criminal prosecution, the liberal justice Sonia Sotomayor said the decision was a “mockery” that makes a president a “king above the law”.

The court ruled Monday that Trump cannot be prosecuted for “official acts” he took while president, setting up tests for which of the federal criminal charges over his attempt to subvert the 2020 election are considered official and sending the case back to a lower court to decide.

“Today’s decision to grant former Presidents criminal immunity reshapes the institution of the Presidency,” Sotomayor wrote in dissent. “It makes a mockery of the principle, foundational to our Constitution and system of Government, that no man is above the law.”

Andy Gets It Right – Michael Seidel, writer

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—In a lawsuit filed on Monday, millions of Americans asked the U.S. Supreme Court to grant them immunity from Donald J. Trump.

The lawsuit argues that the Constitution was intended to protect the people from Trump, unlike the Court’s recent actions, which have protected Trump from the Constitution.

“The Constitution was designed to shield the people from domestic tyranny and foreign threats,” the filing reads. “Trump represents both.”

As a Democrat, I don’t expect relief from the SCOTUS. The damn Republicans are only interested in the Founders’ tenets which support the MAGA apparatus’s ideals of a white, ‘christian’ dictatorship led by the patriarchy. Liars, felons, and rapists accepted. Violence applauded.

No others need apply.

Supreme Court: Trump is shielded from prosecution for official acts – Los Angeles Times

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that former President Trump cannot be prosecuted for his official acts while in office, but left the door open slightly to holding him accountable for some of his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

In a 6-3 vote, the justices upheld Trump’s claim that he was largely immune from any criminal charges related to his official actions while in the White House.

The three liberal justices dissented.

The majority sent the case back to lower courts to determine whether any of Trump’s actions involving the 2020 presidential election and effort to overturn President Biden’s victory were unofficial and therefore subject to prosecution.

(Me: Nothing in US Constitution authorizes such immunity… the right-wing judges are just making this up out of their king making biases)
