Godfather 1 ending incoming
The funny thing is, Roberts should actually be worried about this from Trump. Four years from now when Trump is angry “his” supreme court won’t find some logic to make the 22nd amendment go away, he will not hesitate to go after the court through any means
Is this implying that a president can commit crimes as long as it’s technically under the guise of an official act?
reverse the order obv, A) this makes trump shit his pants the most and B) avoids even slowing down for an “impeachment” speedbump lol
No, it’s not implying that, it’s saying it directly.
Dick Durbin: “don’t think that’s appropriate”
Many things looking pretty

yeah a scotus dissent has the same impact as a muller she wrote tweet
Trolling everyone over how long they took to rule.
So they’re saying in this passage that POTUS has full immunity for the official act of trying to overthrow the government he oversees? Lol awesome
Not really? Like, Scalia’s dissents were a road map for how to bring lawsuits to undo all the hard fought civil rights victories we’re seeing unwound now once conservatives had power on the court.

“In dividing official from unofficial conduct, courts may not inquire into the President’s motives.” … “Nor my courts deem an action unofficial merely because it allegedly violates a generally applicable law.”
yeah but the fact that information was delivered via dissent didn’t make it more useful as a roadmap, scalia could have told whatever lobbyist at the opera/golf course
anyway, pretty hilarious that Roberts has famously handwringed about his legacy and the legitimacy of the court and yet he went along with this pile of garbage when his vote wasn’t even necessary
Can we just ignore the Supreme Court? Lincoln did it.

Yeah it feels like that’s coming early in the next term if Biden wins. This shit is crazy and getting crazier.
And Sotamayor’s dissent was a roadmap for…
Meh, I don’t think Scalia’s opinions were important at all in this tbh. It was just stating what other conservatives already thought.
