Never-Trumpers super triggered over latest SCOTUS ruling
CNN political commentator Van Jones claimed the United States Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity released on Monday left the justices looking “very partisan.”
The 6-3 ruling found former presidents have total immunity from prosecution for any official presidential acts, but do not have immunity for any unofficial acts.
“It makes the Supreme Court look very partisan. They’re supposed to be wearing these kind of black and white umpire jerseys or whatever. They look like they’re wearing red jerseys or MAGA hats,” Jones said.

“It’s also scary,” he continued. “What is Trump gonna do? If Trump gets elected and there’s this idea that he can get away with even more stuff, that’s really, really scary for the public because he already ran over every norm he could.”
“Politically, it’s almost like a license to thug in a way. Like, you can do whatever you want and the Supreme Court is probably gonna let you get away with it. That is very frightening in this case, so I’m very concerned,” the CNN commentator added.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) claimed, “the Supreme Court has gone rogue with its decision,” and that Trump’s claim of presidential immunity in his ongoing court case is “an insult to the vision of our founders.”
Today, the Supreme Court has gone rogue with its decision, violating the foundational American principle that no one is above the law.
The former president’s claim of total presidential immunity is an insult to the vision of our founders, who declared independence from a King.

Minnesota Democrat Congresswoman Ilhan Omar told her X followers SCOTUS “can no longer be trusted to uphold the Constitution.”
The Supreme Court can no longer be trusted to uphold the Constitution.
If Donald Trump is reelected, this convicted felon, rapist, and twice-impeached former President will be able to do whatever the hell he wants.
It’s a scary day for American democracy.

The left is collectively losing it over the SCOTUS decision, with some top pundits and Democrat shills suggesting Biden take advantage of presidential immunity by ordering Seal Team 6 to assassinate Trump.
According to the Supreme Court, Biden could now send in Seal Team 6 to take all of them out. He could send in the military to take out Trump. He has “immunity” for official acts now!
