HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- The Supreme Court's immunity decision is facing its first test. The ruling granted Trump broad immunity in his federal coup case against Jack Smith for “official acts.” Judge Tanya Chutkan will now decide which allegations are immune from prosecution. MSNBC’s Katie Phang is joined by Politco’s Ankush Khardori and The Guardian’s Hugo Lowell. (Check out The Beat's playlist: msnbc.com/ari Connect with Ari Melber: / arimelber )

The lower level court judges must ban together & make a LOUD statement.
You mean like a Pelican Brief response?

This crappy SCOTUS has go to go!
GO GET HIM JACK🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👕🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
We now have Supreme Court justices who are absent any intellectually honest sense of justice.
Shame on those corrupt MAGA judges
not MAGA Judges; Fed Soc Judges...
You are against making america great again? Obviously you guys hate america.
What is so freaking hard for them to say No one is above the law.
They got $ treats from Billionaires!😡
Except the Rulers
Biden? Clinton? Nancy? Oclowno?
You should probably reword that to “no republican is above the law” ..I mean just look at the criminal institutions in Blue cities. Wow!
They did say it, but you obviously haven't read the decision.
Look at Ginni Thomas messages to Meadows too
Biden also has BROAD immunity! The DNC needs to take advantage of that, The Supreme Court gave Biden a gift.
Biden is to weak, old, and embedded in D.C. to ever try to fix SCOTUS. He has already stated that quite a while ago.
Exactly but the sitting POTUS seems to have no balls or still sleeping 😴.
You ain't a saint Joe.
You are absolutely disappointing your supporters by being and looking like a weakling and your advisors too seems like weakling with no balls at all.
C'mon Joe..at the very least do it for Bow who is called a loser and stupid sucker.
you're ignoring the conservative counter: Shameless hypocrisy and double standards.
And do what exactly?
Biden has integrity , far in excess of Trump's perfidy.
Executive privilege only applies to the current president. Not, to former presidents.
Edit involves presidential duty while the president is the president. That is what we are talking about here. Did Trump break the law while he was doing his presidential duties?
@@katwin659
No. You can only claim presidential immunity while you are president, not a private citizen. It’s the law. Clearly, given your lack of understanding, you are not a lawyer 😎
Let me ask you: does this make the supreme court guilty of Aiding and abetting in the crimes of Donald Trump? By giving aid and comfort to Trump should they be held accountable?
Only to people with goofy reasoning.
@@reason6835 thats why we have trump.
Trump is ineligible to hold office under the Constitution's rules about giving aid and comfort to insurrectionists. An argument could be made that this is transitive and protecting him from law enforcement is itself criminal.
Only if it makes the New York courts guilty of aiding the Democrats in election interference.
Let me ask you….are you being serious, or did you run out of meds.
The Democratic party needs solidarity right now. We can't lose sight on defeating drumph because Biden is too old. He didn't just become old yesterday. He was old when he defeated drumph the last time
I would vote for a good turnip over a stinky orange turd any day.

Presidential immunity exists precisely for what the tyrannical Biden Administration is doing to Trump! Our forefathers saw Biden coming. So, your post is uninformed.
Don't forget Individual 1, who conspired to commit crimes with Michael Cohen.
You voted for Clinton and he was logged on Epsteins flight logs 57 times!

The American people need to hear and know everything about every crime this criminal past president so we can vote with clear minds that we know everything. We the Jury need to decide.
😂😂😂😂 do you even watch any of these cases? What other jury has ever had the instructions that they don’t have to agree or name the crime in order to convict a person?! Thank God the left is so passionate about abortion, mutilating their kids genitals and anti straight people. We just gotta ride this wave out cause they’re dedicated to ending their own blood lines
Agreed - SCOTUS are blocking this in every way - allowing Trump on the ballot, granting immunity so the Jan 6 is on hold, giving Cannon a way out to dismiss the slam dunk case of illegal document retention. Cannon had already delayed it unnecessarily, and Mcafee delayed it unnecessarily by allowing a full on examination of the prosecutor.

A president has nothing to do with enforcement of state's electoral process.
But many of his MAGA sycophants do. But we have, I think 19 total states that have passed the law that whoever gets the overall popular vote gets the state's total electoral votes. We need about 5 more states to pass it and we are in, yea!
should have no immunity for crimes done by any ruler
A word for the Supreme Court: "Prejudice is a great time saver. You can form opinions without having to get the facts." ~E. B. White
Amy Cony Barrett (sp?) being reasonable on this issue just makes me nervous that she's buying credibility to do something much less reasonable later. Call me a cynic, but this is a woman who voted against women's fundamental rights, so she has proven her judicial flexibility..
To me, it sugests that, while she is very conservative, she is not dishonest, not easy to intimidate, and not in anybody's pocket. It could be much worse.
The funny thing is that none of Trump's appointees have been as horrible as the far right were hoping they'd be. I'm not defending them or their disastrous rulings by any stretch, but they've shown glimpses of reason and integrity that you will never see from Thomas or Alito.
She’s a maga handmaiden who voted to give tRmp the immunity afforded to Kings.
They have every intention to award him the office again.
She is as vile as the rest.
And LIED during her appointment.
She overturned precedent, and has criminally twisted the constitution to meet their political agenda.
Her judicial perjury..
Trump’s legal team doesn’t want these hearings to go ahead, now I wonder why they don’t want the public to know.
They might change their minds about him

Shouldn’t “official acts” also be lawful? Otherwise the president would be breaking his oath of office right? How else will any president be motivated to follow the law?
Exactly - you are too sensible for the MAGA brainwashed justices who are making things up.

With Scotus rulings to drop obstruction charges for Jan 6 rioters (only the very worst were charged with obstruction), ruling on Presidential Immunity, and ruling to grant kickbacks to gov't officials, this Scotus is telling us exactly who they are.
Doj charged incorrectly , simple on J6
This has to be one of the biggest BS rulings ever made in the MAGA Court! If Trump gets back into office, that will be the end of America! I know how I will vote, even though my vote won't count because I am from Florida! But at least I will vote!
Oh yes, your vote will count. Especially in Florida!
It’s right up there with Dred Scott in it’s awfulness! For “conservatives” they are sure doing a lot of inventing … on the fly, no less.
Trump found the perfect grift--get elected president and do all the criming you want.

10% for the big guy. 😂😂
@@arbyjack2552 the big guy doesn't know what day it is 😂
Since when does the Supreme Court get to make new laws and retro it back in time? "Absolute Immunity" is nowhere in the Constitution or current law!
That’s not what they ruled. They said “absolute PRESUMPTION of immunity for official acts.” The lower courts still have to decide if Trump’s actions constitute an official act. He wasn’t granted immunity at all. That hasn’t even been ruled on yet. This network lies.
Since the Democrats got to weaponize the courts they control against their political opponent.
Since when Dems threatening Supreme Court Justices and chanting in from of their homes "We know what schools your children go to"...
Since ALWAYS….yikes you people are goooone
you now have a king.
100% immune to the law.
If Merrick Garland didn't take almost 2 years to even start working on this we wouldn't be in this position. If biden wins he needs to immediately replace merrick with someone more competent.
Nothing trump did was presidential 😡🤬🏌️♂️💨
I agree.
So...SCOTUS wants the judge to determine which criminal act Trump can be held accountable for before a jury determines if the acts were criminal. Yeah, that's not logical. This is an argument a defense lawyer should be making to a jury during a trial... Prosecutors make the case that an act is criminal and defende makes the case that it wasn't and/or there are extenuating circumstances that acknowledge the criminality but being held accountable for the act dorsnt apply to their client becaude of x/y/z. Does anyone believe the defense isnt going to make that very claim at trial? What, are they going to take an appeal of what's determined to be criminal back to SCOTUS and let's say SCOTUS allows one or two of the counts to stand and go to trial. The burden is on the prosecution to prove that trump DID what he was indicted for. So what would be the purpose of a trial at that point?
I'd trust 12 people vetted for impartiality versus a very very partisan group of people that have no accountability attached to their lifetime appointments.
I'm pretty sure the language from the Supreme Court was exactly that _the lower court is to find what is and what is not official acts_ Meaning it is up to the lower court for determination, not the SC
Career politician's, thats why we're in this mess, diffent wing same bird! 👁️☠️
DING DING DING - BEST ANSWER - ALL GROSS and they make Trump look like a choir boy. - murder inc.
Ignore these judges.
Can grand jury testimony from witnesses be used instead of live witnesses who Trump can cross examine?
AWESOME VIDEO.
Witnesses may not be needed. The sworn evidence from the Grand Jury can be read into the hearing.
The Supreme Court has shown me no matter what is stated or said about how they should conduct themselves, their beliefs and opinions do affect their decision-making.
its seems contradictive to have a president be able to somehow act officially in a way that is unconstitutional yet still falls under the perview of his official acts, like how they said he cant be pursued on the matter of trying to have Pence overturn the election results, which is a power the President does not have.
A country is judged by its strength. We Are That Strength
We, the people need to know all the information *BEFORE voting begins* in the election!

When Trump tried to force his security detail after his insurrection speech on Jan 6th to take him to the Capitol so he could join the violent invaders and hunt down Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi, was he acting as a private citizen or in his official role as the president?
Good question.
If a President can't communicate in clear, unambiguous English, maybe he shouldn't be President?
Now you listen here! A little dementia never hurt anyone!
How do you explain Biden then? He can't talk 2 minutes without a teleprompter even though he killed medicare.

Hi Tanya! Go get'em tiger! 🤡
Can the dupreme court be overturned for making an illegal or unlawful ruling in violation of the constitution?
when your presidential candidate is a Bible salesman
Wasn't Trump arguing he never took the oath for president? Or am I remembering incorrectly? Because if he did say that then nothing he did was an official act
Is ACB being blackmailed or threatened in some way? I have a hard time understanding some of her decisions. I pray she will get back to the person she was when she took her oath of office 🙏🙏
They already have the grand jury transcripts of all of the witnesses that they can use without having to call them back on the stand
The term unprecedented gets thrown around all of the time now. This is an unprecedented situation. This whole "no cameras in the courtroom" needs to be amended. The voters need to see courtroom evidence for themselves, not just what Donald is allowed to lie about after every courtroom appearance.
Campaign Speeches ain't his Presidential duty
The Supreme court gave no direction how to determine if acts are official or not because they will eventually be the only one's to decide what is official. If they gave directions they might hamper their own later decisions.
JOE PLEASE STAY IN THE RACE WE NEED YOU NOW MORE THAN EVER,,,,,,,DT24............
I am so outraged by this unconstitutional SC! This has to be overturned!
No faith in the judicial system
who needs a defense when the judges are in the tank?
I hope JS writes a book after all of this.
With a no holds barred approach. Slamming everything he had to combat.
What is the bomb shell decision...because it was in the best interest of Americans and not the democratic way....I'm confused 😕. 😮😮😮
The fact that these justices, judges, & politicians are protecting this criminal makes them complicit in his crimes, IMO.
Judges, prosecutors, Senators, Governors, members of congress, ambassadors, police all have a measure of immunity for actions related to their work.
And they vigorously defend themselves when such immunity is infringed.
yeah, and your president used to have a measure of immunity for actions related to his work.
but now you have a king, 100% immune from any actions related or non-related to his work. as long as he claims its an "official act" nobody can do anything.
So nothing to do with the actual evidence, just who brought the charges. Great system! DOJ what are you going to do?

With the Supreme court working against justice there is no hope. America is hooped.
Who would ever want to be president or any leader in america if they would be open to lawfare by their opponents as soon as they are out of power? It is not about being above the law. This applies to many professions such as cops. They have immunity in their official duties.

Is what’s good for the goose good for the gander? If Biden loses the 2024 election, can he use immunity to get a second term? As Autobot Blaster said to Autobot Perceptor in the 1986 Transformers G1 Movie: “NO WAY. TWO CAN PLAY”.
that was the ONLY transformers movie.
michael bay should be jailed for his aberrations.
A candidate has no ROLE in the election process. More a former president because there is an agency that look after elections.
