What in the absolute – and I mean absolute – heck?

It’s not just HuffPost:

“Absolute immunity from criminal prosecution” is where the lefties stop reading.

Since they didn’t apparently pass English class, however, they missed the prepositional clauses at the end that are essential to the sentence and provide important context: “…for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority.”

It’s so easy that a kindergartener can understand it. The president has certain powers granted by the Constitution. Anything he does within those limited powers can not be prosecuted criminally. This idea of immunity is not new.

  • In 1982, Nixon v. Fitzgerald led to the ruling that presidents have absolute immunity from civil litigation for actions during their time in office.

  • In 1997, the ruling in Clinton v. Jones clarified that this immunity does not extend to actions that were outside of official duties.

Until now, the Supreme Court has not had to rule on criminal immunity, because every American knew that charging a former president with felonies – especially when the prosecutors are acting on the behalf of a current president – is the type of sordid thing that happens in Third World dictatorships.

Biden and the Dems going after Trump forced SCOTUS to clarify.

From HuffPost:

The Supreme Court’s decision that Donald Trump has full immunity for ‘official acts’ he took as president is so sweeping and vague that it opens the door for sitting presidents to do whatever they want without any accountability, including assassinating a political rival.

Legal experts said Monday that yes, as horrific and authoritarian as that sounds, the 6-3 decision by the court’s conservative supermajority means that President Joe Biden could theoretically order that Trump be killed and be immune from criminal prosecution.

‘Presumptively, he has the power to assassinate a rival,’ John Dean, who was White House counsel to former President Richard Nixon, told HuffPost on a call with the Defend Democracy Project, a group that advocates for free and fair elections.

To believe this, you’d have to be a person who is looking for loopholes in the Constitution in order to justify crime (otherwise known as a leftist).
