BREAKING: The Supreme Court holds, 6-3, that a former president is absolutely immune from prosecution for actions within their "conclusive and preclusive" authority and presumptively immune from prosecution for all official acts.

Not the first time SCOTUS ever got it wrong. See, for example: Scott v Sandford.

This rogue court must be stopped. Biden must nominate 4 more justices and push it through congress. An un-corrupted majority can reverse all the damage this court has done. 13 Circuits. 13 Justices. Dilution is the solution to #SCOTUScorruption. #ExpandTheCourt

They actually did it. I didn’t think they would have the guts to do it, but what a fucking ending to the term. Unbelievable.

Does this distinguish between acts that are not not related to the role though?? That don’t have to do with presidential responsibilities?

So the current president can, therefore order the assassination of 6 Supreme Court judges and he’s good? He can order the execution of his only real rival and, no problems? Nice. Let’s hope the order goes out soon

One key takeaway might be to do everything we can to prevent Trump appointing another Supreme Court justice.

Biden should arrest all republican members of congress and the supreme court and should hang them--it would be an official act so it is legal.

genuinely asking, what is now stopping Biden from legally declaring an “official act” of systemically deleting republican officials from existence?

Roberts has the opinion for the court. Thomas concurs. Barrett concurs in part. Sotomayor dissents for the Democratic appointees. Jackson also writes her own dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...
