NEW: "Richard Nixon would have had a pass": John Dean, former Nixon White House counsel, stunned by Trump immunity ruling.

“Virtually all of his Watergate conduct” could easily fall into what the Supreme Court now says is official conduct. www.huffpost.com/entry/richar...

Removing corrupt members of the US Supreme Court is an imperative.

Yeah, they completely overruled Nixon v US. It’s easily the worst decision since Plessy.

So much for “no one is above the law” in America.

From this day forward, all the discussion about replacing Biden needs to stop as it is, literally, yesterday's news. The new question is: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Which new and mighty "official act" executive powers has Joe Biden used TODAY to stop Mango Hitler ll and bring the corrupt SCOTUS 6 to heel?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 If Biden does not use his new "official act" executive powers, Trump definitely will. He has the chance to unilaterally stop Hitler ll. Will he take it? This is no exaggeration. This is not a drill.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

John Dean was White House counsel to President Nixon from July 1970 to April 1973.

He says he's "stunned" by SCOTUS' sweeping decision today on presidential immunity.

“I’m not even sure you could get to the Nixon tapes under this ruling." www.huffpost.com/entry/richar...

Do you think if they had prosecuted him and all the other president's since for war crimes and other illegal activities this would have happened?

The stated purpose of creating Fox News was to prevent the next Nixon from being forced out of office for committing crimes. So there’s that.

Don't be stunned. Kick them back in their treasonous teeth! Of course not literally, but there's no time to be stunned.

Watergate would have never needed to have happen if he had had immunity from day one. He could have immediately assassinated his entire enemy's list upon entering office.

But it’s liberals who legislate from the bench.

That's the point. They have wanted to avenge Nixon for 50 years. Mission accomplished.
