Yesterday 4/25/24... was a really bad day for the rule of law and the United States system of justice....
although we don't yet know the outcome of the argument before SCOTUS... we do know they were extreme and corrupt in their thought and deeds... that Thomas was even seated was a travesty... that there was no real talk of trumps corrupt acts was a slight done on purpose.
Presidential Immunity
Today, we focus on Trump’s appeal to the Supreme Court after Judge Chutkan denied his motion to dismiss the Special Counsel’s election interference case, claiming he has absolute immunity from criminal prosecution as a former president.Joyce Vance (Civil Discourse with Joyce Vance)

in reply to T.Wllms • • •FTA... The six conservative Justices left Donald Trump on the periphery for the most part, with the possible exception of Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
But make no mistake The case is all about Trump and whether he can be prosecuted for the most serious of his crimes against the American people, trying to hold onto power after losing the 2020 election. It’s also about the legacy of the Roberts Court and whether history will view the already unpopular Justices as the Court that gave away democracy.

it works wonderfully... unlike our current SCOTUS...
If there were ever a subject on which to defer to the founding generation, it is on this question regarding the nature of the presidency. Is the president above the law? The answer is no. Is the president immune from criminal prosecution? Again, the answer is no. Any other conclusion represents a fundamental challenge to constitutional government.
