During Thursday’s deliberations at the U.S. Supreme Court on former President Donald Trump’s immunity claim, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh warned that a decision in the case has future implications for whether future presidents are shielded from vicious cycles of malicious prosecution that could effectively end the presidency as we know it.
 

In the course of two-and-a-half hours of oral arguments on April 25, justices on the Supreme Court appeared skeptical of a ruling by a federal appeals court that rejected President Trump’s claim that he has absolute immunity from criminal charges based on his official acts as president.

President Trump was indicted by special counsel Jack Smith in August 2023 on charges of conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Pleading not guilty, the former president has argued that he should receive absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for acts that fell within the scope of his official duties. The exception to this immunity, he has argued, is if Congress impeaches and convicts him on charges.

A federal appeals court rejected that argument, claiming that presidents must face prosecution for alleged criminal wrongdoing.

Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley discusses the key takeaways from Supreme Court arguments over former President Trump's immunity claims on 'Special Report.'

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas raised a question Thursday that goes to the heart of Special Counsel Jack Smith's charges against former President Donald Trump.

The high court was considering Trump's argument that he is immune from prosecution for actions he took while president, but another issue is whether Smith and the Office of Special Counsel have the authority to bring charges at all.

"Did you, in this litigation, challenge the appointment of special counsel?" Thomas asked Trump attorney John Sauer on Thursday during a nearly three-hour session at the Supreme Court.

Media help?

What more is there to do after 2020?

ABCNNBCBS and PBS all in the Biden Camp, Most newspapers and other print media follow suit.

Censorship of dissent on social media.

Short of seizing the remainder of media outlets which don't already carry Bidens water, there isn't much more left for the gubmint propaganda outlets to do. They have worked overtime to discredit those telling the truth.

At this point, anyone who has their eyes open can see they lie.

Well, Sullivan's just being disingenuous.  There is one foolproof way, Israel:  decline US-supplied weapons, US taxpayer money, the US geopolitical shield and do what you want to your heart's content.  Easy peasy.

No U.S. interference would be nice, but does Israel have the funds to continue on without U.S. aid?
