Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D) from California is calling for the military to take out the conservative justices
This is yet another example of the left accusing the right of what the left wants to do.
They just ruled it’s legal.
How is planning and conspiring to murder American citizens, such as members of SCOTUS, part of official duties?
I understand that some people will keep buying into this one by saying it was a blanket immunity statement, but it was not. No matter how many times it gets repeated, it doesn't make it any more true.
Because they are traitors, the president said so and he’s immune.
Tell me you didn't read it without telling me you didn't read it. The left is full of idiots spreading dangerous false info.
What’s so dangerous about using the new powers defined by scotus?
There are three parts to the immunity ruling.
1) The president has absolute immunity from acts conducted while conducting his constitutionally protected duties.
2) The President has Presumptive Immunity from official acts as president that are done in accordance with his oath of office (an official act has to be determined by a lower court)
3) Unofficial acts are not granted immunity. Example, conspiring to murder US citizens, or shooting someone on fifth avenue
Correct me if I’m wrong, but there were no new “powers” added, the immunity was simply confirmed?
Yep. If someone is going to attempt to prosecute a president they have to clearly define if the act was an unofficial that is prosecutable
You are a NAZI movement, you can’t fool anyone anymore.
SCOTUS said President, that’s a Representative. Therefore, she’s prosecutable since she’s calling for the assassination of SCOTUS members.
She’s simply saying the president should. 1A, on top of president immunity
No inciting violence or chaos you dolt. You guys are just abhorrent
Inciting a legal action bub
Yeah "taking out conservative judges" isn't a legal action you horrible moron
I don't think dude know shit about the constitution or law in general. Either a child or commie
The left are vicious wild animals. Ignore. Eventually it will be caught and unfortunately euthanized
Degrade and degrade. You’re a disgusting person, but you’re still a person……
If the party controls the house and senate, the president can do whatever they want without punishment.
If it’s an official act, it’s legal, no?
It's not an official act. The 14th amendment makes it illegal for the president to just gun you down.
Not that I expect you to be able to wrap your mind around even such a simple fact.
And if not enforced by the legislature, what is the course of justice?
Nope.
Inciting violence.
That is the Left’s ENTIRE argument against Trump for Jan 6.
Inciting a legal act, bub
No they didn't, and you're too stupid to realize it. You're spreading a dangerous bullshit lie.
What lie? If a president does something it’s an official act. If not impeached, then what is the punishment?
No it's not. Fulfilling the official duties and responsibilities of the president constitutes an official act. Murdering his competition would not fall under those circumstances. The fact that you have trouble fathoming that tells me all we need to know.
What is punishment if the congress is on their side?
That is no factor if something is an official capacity or not. The president is there to act as the head of the executive. Murdering competition would absolutely fall outside of that. That's why we have three branches of government. Right now the supreme Court is the only one remaining sane and holding shit together.
Are pressuring Georgia Secretary of State to find 11,780 votes and sending a mob of supporters to disrupt congress official acts?
Not everything the president does is an official act numbnuts, or would you if he slaps his wife, that's also an official act because he's the president in that moment? you guys need to stop with this becuase it's becoming blatantly obvious, that you're either a total moron, or pretending to be, both aren't a great look
Who decides what an official act is?
That’s not a president.
She’s suggesting the president should
She’s calling for the assassination of her political opponent. It doesn’t matter who she implores to get it. She should be looking at the inside of a cell.
Do you not see the inherent danger in this kind of rhetoric? I’m not asking that as some gotcha. I’m really asking.
That’s free speech. I can say that Biden needs murdered to you. Also, judges aren’t political opponents, these judges are appointed, and for life.
Was it dangerous rhetoric chanting lock her up for years?
Yes. Lock her up was dangerous rhetoric. Rhetoric that he never acted on. I don’t disagree with the sentiment either, but my reasons are quite different.
Free speech does have its limitations. If some brainwashed radical tries to take a shot, she should be jailed for it. Wasn’t it last year that the secret service shot a wheel chair bound man for saying he was going to take out Biden? Guess some people have more limitations than others, right? And in this case, it will be washed away, memory holed, so it won’t be remembered by anyone who would vote for her. At the very least, she should be expelled from congress. The real irony is that she was part of the house ethics committee.
Who’s to say this rhetoric will be acted on?
If some brainwashed radical does that, she’ll be in the clear because she is saying the president should, not some supporter.
Traumatic Brain Injuries can surface years, even decades after the initial bonk.
They're willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to win election and stay in power...WHATEVER IT TAKES.
You know…I always thought the dems were always hiding their actual feelings behind a veil of smiles and “tolerance”. And now they ripped that mask off and are going full blood-lust against those they disagree with.
Impeachment is still in play if a president was to sign an order to do something against an American citizen on American soil. These people act like the decision was some huge thing…they don’t make up new rules or guidelines…they clarify the law as written. So the president has always had protection from prosecution for official acts, they are just clarifying that since there was a disagreement.
Supreme Court does not grant new powers…geez🤦♂️
Throw that phucking biitch in prison
Remember that they suggested it first.
Some vet sniper is going to see this. Just saying, there are some true patriots out there that are ready to water the tree.
"Dictator for a day" Does that constitute blood of a tyrant to water the tree of liberty? What about calling for the termination of the constitution?
Taken out of context. What was he referring too? Illegal aliens and deporting them. I do recall Biden and Harris both salivating at the idea of autocracy because democracy is too slow in this fast paced world. The people want small government and minimal interference in day to day life. Trump is the closest thing to that. Not perfect by any means but not nearly as bad as Bidens handlers.
This is the left driving off the cliff, jumping the shark so to speak. They are now going so far to one side they will never come back.
They really are jumping the shark imo, they're now showing that they're either idiots, or they're pretending to be
MSNBC, go figure.
She's giving a hypothetical. She isn't calling for anything.
So, are they really that stupid or are they just pretending to be?
Old cow is in dire need of a visit from the Secret Service.
By the ruling the president can do it and if they are not impeached then there is nothing to stop it.
Considering how weak and reliant on party line politics impeachment is and the tacit support of tyranny from both parties I could see this ruling being the end of the US.
Good job conservatives. at expanding the powers of the executive.
She didn’t call for anything. She was offering a hypothetical. A stupid and bad faith hypothetical, but still, not a call for violence against anyone. The distinction matters.
I don't know why we have to get all "thoeretical." We know what biden can do, and what conservatives presumably have no problems with. All of this "biden could take out his politcal rivals" stuff is a distration. So, when Trump inevitably wins (and he will), Biden can pressure Democratic governors and Secrataries of State in places where the vote was close to just postpone their certifications and find the votes it takes to change the outcome, he can encourage alternate slates of electors, and he can have Kamala refuse to certify Trumps victory. And that's all good. No need to get hyperbolic, just do what's already been done or attempted by trump and what can MAGA say to that?
