So, were Hilary's emails OK then? If okd by obama?When it seemed like things were getting better, they for worse.

If only Biden and the dems had the courage to do what's needed.

In which community do I start a death pool wherein people guess the first person newly coronated King Donald has assassinated in an official act?

Most fascist dictators start with political opposition and journalists then move onto the scapegoats.

He can be charged for private acts, but as long as he used official communication to discuss it with others that can't be used as evidence. Then the stacked courts get to decide what is official and private, so private is effectively immune as well.

What a fucking shitshow.

Anything that can be used to show anything is an official act.

There is no difference. There never will be. Everything is official and anyone can be killed to prove it such, officially.

Immunity doesn’t need to be proven, it exists and it’s up to you to prove otherwise. Fuck off until proven otherwise.

It’s not a bad thing. Unless you can officially prove it. So fuck you, you piece of shit; until you can prove it.

right, but they also said any exercise of constitutional authority is an official act, so good luck getting anything declared a private act by the courts.

so officially destroying the planet is okay. as a hobby, not so much

Don't worry, they effectively ruled it's okay as a hobby as well by gutting the Chevron defense last week to kneecap the EPA and every major federal agency.

Would it be illegal for Biden to invalidate every ruling this Court has made, including the Presidential immunity one? Or would that lead to a paradox?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

The ruling on presidential immunity today was pretty paradoxical, he has criminal immunity to breaking the law if he argues it's "to take care that laws be faithfully executed." Absolute immunity even since that's right in article 2, so why not?
