I WANT A PRESIDENT WHO DOESN'T NEED IMMUNITY FOR CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.
What is a suspicious activity report?
“We the People” do not accept the ruling of this captured court.
Exactly🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
yes we do
We sure DON’t!!
@@NCSWC You're not alone, many people are under the Orange scammer spell. Americans people are not specially known for their "street sense"
@@jojolouis Wow you guys claim to be about democracy then say stupid stuff like that...
!!!!! THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION NOW IS
- WHAT CAN KING BIDEN DO NOW TO STOP TRUMP?
Exactly and the court. Biden should decide not to pay them a dime and take away US Marshall protection in defense of the country.
DEMS, backed by , We the People need to go GANGSTA NOW!!!!! Before they officially seize Power in November.
I WANT A PRESIDENT WHO DOESN'T NEED IMMUNITY FOR CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.
@@GayleAllen-RINO .. no kidding. But I would happily sacrifice myself to end Trump. Forty years I have watched this sociopath destroy all around him with impunity.
Nothing his done, America wants Trump the biggest King ever.
This was the plan the entire time.
We know
I so agree.
Agree. This is a long standing plot of the wealthy to grab power. This is about the wealthy needing to pump every drop of oil out of the ground to maintain their wealth. Money is the G-d of the wealthy and of the Republicans. Do not be deceived. These people are evil and their intent is to end all Life on Earth. They will soon get what they wish for as abrupt climate change continues to accelerate.
Great plan ❤
Yeah , who would’ve ever thought they would go to and use the highest court in the land with the brightest minds to actually render a decision in this case. Every president in U.S. history has taken top secret and classified documents with them when they leave office. Unlike some who’ve never had a top secret or classified documents clearance to possess , take , hold such top secret and classified documents . And if I remember just recently it was discovered that a man named Joe Biden stole top secret and classified documents by stuffing them down the front of his pants to smuggle them out of a secure Skiff . Throughout Joe Biden’s fifty yrs of being a career politician he willfully, knowingly, intentionally and blatantly stole top secret and classified documents from more than fifty yrs . Hmmm 🤔 one just might call that a crime ! But we’ll see because I don’t think that one’s over yet. Not only did Biden knowingly steal these documents and had them in his possession he had amassed well over four hundred boxes of top secret and classified documents he now says his staff moved and he did know anything about. Hmmm 🤔 another huge problem for Joe Biden because not only did he not have a top secret security clearance to be able to possess these top secret documents neither did any of his staff or his son Hunter who was directly working with and was business partners with a communist Chinese national who had direct ties to the communist Chinese CCP ! But na that’s not against the law. And you want to go after a man Trump for taking top secret documents like every other US president before him took after leaving office really. Like the Congressional judicial oversight committees not done with dealing with this one yet. Like you say nobody’s above the law.
Biden should test the limits of this ruling on the Federalist society and the insurrectionist Koch ecosystem
I feel dumber after reading your post.
Didnt you see the debate on Thursday. Biden has dementia. That means we have no clue who is running this country. Can you say "Insurrection"?
It don't apply to Biden buddy, its only for Donald Trump, our Chistian leader buddy! Yall liberal's better get used to saying you're prayer every day to Donald Trump. Its time for liberal's to get re-educated in them Freedom Camp's Merle!
He could still be impeached which os the constitution way to sanction a President
Biden needs to worry about when he's up for criminal charges in 2025, as a regular civilian
Since they think presidents should have immunity for official acts, I say great, Biden should start with the official act of defending our democracy from the existential threat that is Donald Trump and the entire MAGA movement.
🎯
Too bad he can’t. He is at the level he thinks he is beating Medicare lol. You guys need to wake up and realize that if he gets 4 more years, there might not be a US with his clueless Presidency.
@@eufrosniad994 You have to evaluate the risk: the risk being greater with the Orange scammer. I know: it's not perfect!.... at least Bidden is better for American workers. As for foreign policy, well Bidden is in line with all the previous American president (including Trump): they all put "America first".....and ignore the damage that their expansionist policy had world wide (for short/ medium term benefits and long term dire consequences)
Time for Joe to call out Seal Team 6 as an official act to protect democracy.
Exactly 💯
Carefully watch your comment. Biden has been sick for a while. It backfired on the democrats. Now it's over. Democrats did it to themselves.
He can't , seal team coming for him . Julian Assange said they day he gets free. , he is going to go after the ones that went after him
If it fell within the scope of his official duties it would be supported by this court. You're not being very specific.
@@drewjeers815 Yes, his official duties include his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution
We are all in trouble and the world is watching
I love T.R.U.M.P
You have a president who can't put together a sentence. Yes, you are in trouble.
Trump is the best president!!!
You are in trouble, and the western world fears this perversion of democracy will spread.

President Biden ! Get out and show how you feel about this! If you stand up for the people the people will stand up for you in November.
It's not go8ng to matter. The PLAN is to SEIZE POWER, regardless, and backed by this treasonous court, a King has already been installed.
Hold up.... what's the argument FOR any immunity at all? Seriously: Who, for anything other than selfish or corrupt reasons, thinks this is in any way good for America?
Presidents have been operating without this ruling for two centuries. All of a sudden, without this ruling a president's hands would be tied? How about, Presidents obey laws???
Actually the assumption has always been presidential immunity. It exists to ensure that presidents leave office with out fear of retribution from political opposition.
Well, the position up until this point has been that the proper way to try a president is through impeachment. Which was done and he was acquitted.
@@user-zk1zy1fy7o I know your great leader told you that, but if it was true, Ford wouldn't have pardoned Nixon.
For 2 centuries we didn't have an entire corrupt party trying to jail their opponent using the legal system. Which is EXACTLY what we have now.
@@charliehorse8686really, then why was presidential immunity coined almost 50 years ago, " uh ... Trump," right?
No it's existed for a long time. Also, Watergate would've been private business not official business.
I miss the time when all we had to worry about was Hillary's emails.
Like Obama killing a US citizen in a drone strike
@@jeffminnich3291 Those emails have been gone through. Focus No to tRump, NO to "christain" nationalist, No to fascism, NO to project 2025.

Worry about emails? Not showing any proof of what they said, only having to guess their content?…….

You cant then expect a citizen to serve on a jury with impartiality when our system itself has shown that it is partial. If the president is above the law we don't have a justice system.
You do realize that it's been that way from the beginning.

@@deadcarz4926 Don't worry. You're only 13 for a year.
Ask Clarence Thomas
It really is absolute immunity. Because ANY semblance of immunity means there can be interpretations of the actions, and a court can now decide if someone is a king. This is what our country fought against! I fully expect any rulings on his actions will once again go to Supreme Court and they’ll rule they were official acts. Disgusting!
lol We love our King Trump
Brilliant
Take a civics class. You sound uneducated.
You want love him long!!!!
No, it's not. If he commits a crime in the act of a political candidate that is not protected...his decisions as President are protected.
treasonous behaviour is still treason right?
Yes,Biden is treasonous. Hur said so!
Ask traitor Joe. Or tr46son. Ask the criminal about espionage too
Yes what pence did was just that
Remind me what he did that was treasonous?
Yes it is and Congress can still impeach a sitting president
I blame Merrick Garland for not bringing the cases sooner. If he would have brought the cases sooner it would have force the issue sooner causing this decision to be out there longer than a handful of months prior to the election
Since Biden has the same immunity. He should take action. Right
Hasn’t he already? He should be in prison for the border alone, not just for his docs, treason, espionage, etc etc. traitor joe prison 25
Immunity doesn't apply to senators and v.p. Biden time is coming
action ? what kind of problems are you having
What action??
Biden?😂 you mean who ever is controlling biden behind the scenes?
we deserve everything we get. so buckle up everyone
Nah. The vast majority of us are essentially captives to this crap. Most of us don't want this, but the administration of the country hasn't factored in the will of the people for a long time now.

Power doesn't corrupt, power REVEALS.
Great ruling! Now Biden should use it to his favor to send Seal Team 6 on the useless SCOTUS and the guy sleeping in the room next to Melania's at Mar-a-Lago.
Gotta give SCOTUS credit, they took a BS request and spun it to benefit a criminal. So what would have happened if this was in place during Watergate?
If they had turned it the other way Bill, George, Obama would be going to prison as well.
This just closed the door that's all.
Ps Watergate if Nixon had been impeached he could've faced charges and prison time if it wasn't for Ford giving him the presidential pardon.
The U.S. would have likely fallen to a dictatorship already.
Under this scenario, there would never be a Watergate
I understand your frustration, Biden's Dementia and poll numbers aren't improving!😂😂
Not really, this wouldn't apply during Watergate. Just like it doesn't apply to most of Trumps accusations. You guys are crazy.
I’ve heard over and over again no one is above the law and yet here we are. The world has to realize that there is no law anymore.😮😮
This court is seriously corrupt and should be dismantled by the people. In a recent decision of this court they chose to allow themselves the ability to accept monetary rewards, not considered a bribe, if they are paid off after a court decision.
You do realize that presidential immunity was created to encourage Presidents to leave office with out fear of retribution from their political opposition.
Sounds Insurrectiony...😂
Biden and his minions are seriously corrupt which is why we’re at this point, and will be dismantled in November.

And Yet, this Supreme Court says Joe is immune from prosecution as long as he uses one of his core constitutional powers while committing the crime.
And since Joe is Commander and Chief of the military, a military coup led by the President is now absolutely immune from criminal prosecution.

To bad most his crimes happened before he became Pres.. Zero immunity there
Durrrrr🤪 They said president. They didn’t say Trump only.🤦🏼♂️
But what about a senator? Should a senator get senile immunity?
SCOTUS can say limited immunity for “ official duties “, Trump will wiggles his way through and said
“ everything he does “ are related to his presidency, the “Kangaroo Court “, will always agree, this
will turn into “ absolute immunity and power “ by the President.
Except, they just ruined that isn't true. You are literally saying they will change their ruling in under a year.

Perfect description Bribens corrupt administration
*@Ganiscol --* That, or the *_'Unified Reich of America'._*

So this means that the Supreme Court just gave Donald Trump. The go ahead and all other presidents to go ahead. To deem what they believe are official acts seems to me. So that means since Donald Trump is a literal threat to the people of this country and the rule of law, and he is this countrys public public domestic enemy number one. And a domestic terrorist Joe Biden condeen, taking him out via jail or death.
Official Act. An official Act, so I say Joe Biden. Do your thing cause never before like I said up. Top, have we ever in the state in the history of the United States been warned and/or beg not to vote for someone, because fear of out complete and total rule of law and way of life being upended.
"Dangerous" Well said, Professor Tribe.
This must be an alarm to all voters. Trump must never be allowed to get back into the WH. Pres. Biden in his next term must nominate Centrists to the Supreme Court that can undue the damage that this Supreme Court did to our Democratic Republic today.
Every single time a ruling does go “their way”….. you’ll hear, on both sides….“this country is not worth living in “……!!! Ridiculous…!!!
I think it's tiy to pack the court. This is horrible for our democracy.

One of the worst days in US history.

There was an honor and a standard that both the Supreme Court and The Office of the President and we as United States citizens held high no longer exist, yet the law is going to hold we the people to that standard,
Welcome to the double standards of government.
Yep, happened when joe got in.
And who was in power and created this USA it was fine 3 1/2 years ago. just admit you Dems have fallen off your own cliff!!!!!
Today is the day democracy died
Actually, the death throes began in 2000, when the Supreme Court, backed by Republican heavyweights, derailed the Constitution, stopped the recount, and appointed George Bush II president, even though Gore won the popular vote. After that it was all downhill - accelerated with the fraudulent grounds for invading Iraq in 2001.
yes, and now they will go after the rest of the world.
Make sure to let the Biden administration know that Democracy is no longer on the line in Nov because Bunk declared it dead today.
No democracy died when Joe was illegally installed with 81 million fraudulent votes.

Oh yeah but not the millions of 3rd worlders flooding in,freak parades,109 genders…you progressive’s lol
Don’t worry you’re channel here deletes our voices so you always have that
I GUARANTEE you, if President Obama had been in these same shoes as orangeman, the Supreme Court would have ruled a TOTALLY different way!!!!
Except that they didn't. People forget that the family of Osama Bin Laden tried to sue President Obama for his death, but the courts rightly ruled that the President had immunity in that situation as bin Laden's death was carried out as an official act under the powers of the Commander in Chief.
Nope sorry this ruling protects America's first homosexual president too.
Not really. They weren't even the ones to create presidential immunity, just stop. It also ignores that many Republicans had literally been pushing for the same actions against Biden. 🙄

Doesn't this ruling render power of impeachment void? If so the ruling in itself is unconstitutional.
No, the ruling applies to former presidents who, it should be noted, have always operated under the assumption of immunity for official acts. This ruling solidifies the notion that you can't go back and criminally prosecute a president for an official act that he did while he was in office. Because let's face it, pretty much all presidents alive today could be prosecuted for war crimes, but those are official acts that they took while in office, and so they are immune from prosecution.
So Biden is free to call Seal Team Six?

This ruling was almost no different than current believed law. They get immunity for official acts. The phrase presidential immunity was not coined or used by this court first.
On the contrary. The Constitution - which is capitalized, by the way - doesn't even remotely suggest presidential immunity. Meanwhile, there's ample jurisprudence and writings by men like Hamilton and Madison that points in the other direction entirely. No man is above the law MEANS no man is above the law! Ford pardoned Nixon because they both knew that he did not have immunity!
@@dmann1115you do realize presidential immunity was coined almost a half century ago, right? It has been believed law for a long time.

IT WAS AN ATTEMPTED COUP, INSTIGATED BY TRUMP AND HIS TRE45ON TR45H SHITWE45ELS .
Only 1 problem, nobody was campaigning. It was a protest of a crooked election system.
Biden needs to give seal team 6 a call immediately !!!!
Remember that RBG not retiring brought us this insane Supreme Court.
Mitch McConnell refusing to seat an Obama pick when Antony Scalia died started this.
Mitch McConnell not holding a hearing for Merrick Garland also brought this on America. Let's not forget.
Gotta love Mitch
@@charlestonscnative9083Merritt Garland is a crook!
I just love the tears in these comments ♥
Wake me up when this nightmare is over. I need to know how this ends, not the hellscape in the interim.
We told you 4 years ago Brandon is a potato. Why are you people so inept at researching anything for yourselves?
May as well just give Trump the election. He'll take it anyway
You misspelled "win"
He can't
---- < All the ruling really says is that a President has immunity for upholding the law.
Under 3 U.S.C § 301 (1) & (2), Article II duties /official acts are DEFINED BY LAW. So, an Article II duty /official act is not a crime. A crime is NEVER an Article II duty. However, the violation of procedural law is subject to criminal law. For example: Under § 301(2), a asking someone to break the law is not an Article II duty.
..... 3 U.S.C. § 15(e)(1)A(ii) says, " No vote of an elector described in clause (i) which has been regularly given shall be rejected."
... Under the PRA, classified documents, even if declassified are still the property of the government and never become personal property.
A presumption of immunity shouldn't be any more than a "presumption of innocence" before conviction by a trial court, or proof of intent..required by the prosecution of any individual.
