The justices of the supreme court ruled that Trump was immune and effectively above the law while being president. What is now stopping Biden from bringing a gun to the next debate?

  • Trump is arguing that his twitter was "official communications", and thus can't be used in court. This means that the 34 felony convictions might go away now.

    But the truth is that the Supreme Court didn't say that every "official act" was immune from consequences. The more nuanced reading is that any act that the Court declares official is immune from consequences.

    The Conservatives on the Court declared the president King, but only when they feel like it.

    • Supreme Court impeachment plan released by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

  • That's basically the entire republican plan. It's all spelled out in Project 2025. Literally replacing the entire government with Trump loyalists, and military tribunals for anyone who cannot be directly fired and replaced. Trump has even said that Mitch McConnell is going to be tried in front of a military tribunal.

    As a note here, military tribunal means no due process, and no defense. Just straight to the guilty verdict and death penalty.
