Experts warn it might provide a "road map" for future presidents to evade consequences for potential crimes in office. The decision raises crucial questions about the balance of power in government and the principle that no one is above the law. What are your thoughts on this controversial ruling?

Thanks for writing and sharing excellent analysis of the important US Supreme Court judgment. As rightly said, this decision means that the former President has presumptive immunity for actions taken within official duties but not covered by unofficial acts. By the said judgment, the US Court has determined that the Presidents and the former Presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts while in office. However, the question whether the actions relating to 2020 election and 6th January events were official acts is to be decided by the Court. This may now entail delay in the said trial and determination until after 2024 elections. #supremecourt #usa #president #formerpresident #immunity #officialacts #criminalprosecution #legaldeli LegalDeli.in

I am as against Trump regaining the Presidency as one can get. He should never be elected to any office. Having stated this I am also wholly against taking Trump off the ballot using the 14th Amendment. Everything he is accused of is just that, an accusation. Trump has been found guilty of nothing that would lend itself to Trump being taken off the ballot using this Amendment. This article is quite interesting and discusses, not my view but a view of Trump and the 14th Amendment. https://lnkd.in/eud8hGwX

Did Judge Tanya Chutkan spill the beans, or is this just a legal brew-ha-ha? - Judge Tanya Chutkan released parts of a filing by prosecutors that outline their rationale for the case to proceed despite the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity. - The document provides detailed reasoning supporting the continuation of legal proceedings in light of constitutional complexities. - Prosecutors aim to maintain the momentum of the case, challenging interpretations of presidential protections. #Judge_Tanya_Chutkan #Supreme_Court #Presidential_Immunity #Legal_Proceedings #TPMC https://lnkd.in/dzDqE8sF Author: Alan Feuer and Charlie Savage

COO, Director, Federal National Accounts & Market Development, Public Health & Federal Healthcare Advocate. Opinions are personal & do not reflect position of any organization that I am affiliated with.
Finally, we are hearing about how Authoritarian Leaders look upon democracy and free-speech. Apparently, the Trump campaign and the Republican Party feel that lies, disinformation, fraud, slander, libel, false-claims, & false-advertising are all protected free-speech. PLEASE NOTE: Donald J. Trump is not defending/proving his 'Stop-the-Steal' lies. He is arguing that he has the right to lie to me, to you, to your Children/Grandchildren, and to his fellow Americans about Election Fraud & Stop-the-Steal, and that he cannot be held accountable for lying to us. I wonder how January 06 Insurgents who are doing jail time feel, knowing that Trump has mislead them about 2020 Election Fraud and Stop-the-Steal, while letting them take-the-fall in jail because they believed Donald J. Trump's lies??? — We have laws which PROHIBIT fraud, slander, libel, false-claims, and false-advertising too. Con-Men usually end up in jail. ... Ask Fox News Channel about their $787 MILLION settlement with Dominion, when Dominion challenged FNC reports of 2020 Presidential Election Fraud ... Bernie Madoff died in prison after lying to investors & defrauding them out of $18 Billion. ... The leaders of the Genesis II Church are behind bars because they sold 'Miracle Mineral Solution' (containing Bleach) to their congregation, lying to them as they claimed efficacy in treating COVID-19, Alzheimers, Autism, AIDS/HIV, etc. -- Then again, there is always God's Commandment: Thou Shall Not Bear False Witness ** SO, what's it going to be? Are Con-Men free to lie, to mislead, to injure our fellow Citizens, & to harm our great Nation? Who needs rule-of-law, when you have caveat emptor?
When a lawyer in the USA can argue that intentional lying is just free speech, it’s obvious we need legal reform. Any lawyer who would bring such a frivolous action should be either sanctioned, fined, or disbarred. “Donald Trump’s lawyer argued Thursday the former president can’t be prosecuted Georgia for trying to steal the 2020 election because his alleged conduct was political speech that must be protected under the First Amendment − even speech that was lies. Prosecutors argued Trump’s statements contributed to a wide-ranging conspiracy of making false statements to government officials, submitting false and forged documents and impersonating public officials. Trump asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a fellow Republican, to "find" the votes he would need to carry the Peach State. “It’s not just that he lied over and over and over again,” said prosecutor Donald Wakeford. “It’s that each of those was employed as part of criminal activity with criminal intentions.” U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan has already rejected Trump’s argument that his statements are protected by the First Amendment, in a federal case with similar charges of election interference. Wakeford directed McAfee to her reasoning for a detailed explanation for why Trump is wrong.” #legalreform #nooneisabovethelaw #justice #commonsense #accountability #stoptheinsanity

#Trump v. United States #Former US Presidents have Absolute Immunity for actions within Conclusive and Preclusive Constitutional Authority: #SCOTUS For the first time in US history, a former President, in this case Donald Trump, had been indicted by a federal grand jury on four counts for conduct that occurred during his Presidency following November 2020 Presidential Elections. #The indictment alleged that after losing that election, Trump conspired to overturn it by knowingly false claims of election fraud.... #Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS): #In a monumental decision where for the first time in American history, the SCOTUS had to consider a former US President’s (Donald Trump) immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts during his Presidency; the Full Bench of the Court with a ratio of 6: 3 held that, under US constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to Absolute Immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts....

One of the core components of democratic governance is that no person, not even an elected official, is above the law. Tomorrow the Supreme Court will hear arguments from former president Donald Trump’s legal team that he is entitled to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for official actions undertaken while in office. Granting immunity to elected officials risks substantially undermining the rule of law in the United States as well as the country’s efforts to counter authoritarianism abroad. Particularly given the facts of this case—centered around President Trump’s alleged involvement in the effort to interrupt the peaceful transfer of power after a free and fair election—allowing immunity for such actions could also jeopardize electoral democracy itself. https://lnkd.in/gM9vKxhK

More voters are becoming concerned with Supreme Court actions. Although there is almost no chance for the House to impeach any Republican or conservative official prior to the general election, the question of impeachment and potential removal of certain individuals is definitely a meaningful issue for the election. If given a mandate for change by a general election, Democrats could make substantial change in the way our democracy works. On the converse, a major loss by the Democrats and even a loss by President Biden could have an adverse effect on democracy itself. #ussupremecourt #justicesystem #impeachment #elections2024 #balanceofpower #bidenharrisadministration https://lnkd.in/eXJjnMMc
