Thank you @Hoover Institution for sharing this crucial video! The Supreme Court recently issued a ruling in Trump v. United States, a case concerning the indictment of former President Donald Trump for his actions during the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. The Court's decision centered on the balance between a President's immunity from prosecution for official acts and the need to uphold constitutional duties. The majority opinion granted Trump presumptive immunity for his official acts, prompting dissent from Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson, who argued against granting former Presidents unchecked immunity. The dissent stressed the importance of accountability and the rule of law, cautioning against the potential negative implications of the majority's decision on the Presidency and democracy. Presumptive immunity: A legal assumption that a person is immune from prosecution unless proven otherwise.
Ironically, , Title 50 Operations enable a sitting US President to authorize CIA Coups of foreign governments, in disregard of International Law and the UN Charter…From a country who publicly speaks of the International rules based world order.
Love the 1976 bicentennial reference. My first memory is that night and the fire hydrants were painted in patriotic ways that year. Some of that paint lasted for years. I was scared of the Uncle Sam ones.
Thanks to Bill and John for this. 14:00. I like beer too. But have been a teetotaler for years. As to John’s analysis, it’s fine, with one quibble. I’m pretty sure that given different sentiments at DoJ in 1998, had this decision been in writing at the time, many lawyers and agents who were intent on maintaining the “President should not be arrested while in office” standard would have seen the perjury in the Jones deposition and the clarifying finger-wagging as grounds to arrest Bill Clinton for a personal act (perjury). Very different than the statements still coming from WH. 31:52. Let me respond to Bill’s question to John this way. I am Metacom’s Heir. I have been openly mentioning this since early 2021. But not discussing the details of material things the various parties cited by Bill have been encouraged to discuss but never volunteered. I am curious as to how the intersection of that and these issues play out. Thanks again.
Dear President Biden, you are given a great power by the Supreme Court to make changes in our Supreme Court. Please excuse some of the Supreme Court justices and appoint a new ,not corrupt, ones…
Thanks - I just finished reading Chief Justice Robert’s majority decision on the Trump case. This discussion helped me by adding greater context.
Most partisan and corrupt scotus, easily in my lifetime, if not the history of the country. These are dark times.
