legendary_zell 07/01/24 11:15:49 AM #29:	They're going to remand to the lower courts to decide what counts as an official act. So courts decide. But that opinion will surely be appealed and probably granted cert, especially if the circuit court says the Jan 6th stuff weren't official acts. So this will stay tied up in court for quite a bit longer. It does seem like he's still in trouble for the stuff he did before and after taking office at least. But this is still a terrible decision for democracy because Presidents now have a very wide zone of absolute immunity and an even wider zone of presumed immunity.

ssjevot 07/01/24 11:20:17 AM #38:	This is from Sotomayor's dissent: Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majoritys message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law. Orders the Navys Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.

UnsteadyOwl 07/01/24 11:28:28 AM #44:	Proto_Spark posted... The whole point of the SCOTUS taking this up was to stall for time so Trump could push his trials until after the election - where if he won he would just be able to ignore all of it. That's why the SCOTUS waited until the last possible moment to take the case, waited until the last possible moment to issue a ruling on it, and made one that doesn't directly save Trump, but sets a horrendous precedent moving forward that will absolutely help with the whole "fascist takeover of America" thing. And now the lower court has to sort out what is and isn't an official act before they can proceed with the case. It really looks like they're doing everything in their power to delay the case until after the election so that if Trump wins he can order the DOJ to drop the case. --- "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose.
