They didn't "throw it out". They RULED against it.

[thjbird]

It took 6 months to make this decision!?!? There is no credible excuse for it.

[MichaelARiggs]

Nice word salad to try to confuse idiots who dont know what's going on.

The idea of giving nine people, who often have shown less integrity than Mobsters, life time appointment is simply absurd. This is the court that has ruled: 1) That Bribery (Campaign Contribution) is legal and is Freedom Of Speech. 2) That Corporations are people and can give unlimited Bribes. 3) That Non-profit outfits can provide Bribes for political figures without revealing the names of the people who are providing the Bribes. 4) That the people who use Brand name meds have legal protection for side effects, but the majority of people who use the Generics, have no protection. 5) That a bunch of old men in different states can decide about women health and reproductive rights. So, don't expect anything positive from such corrupt court.

It's not just about Trump, it's about any US President.

TIRED OF THIS FREAKING CIRCUS 🎪 NO RESPECT FOR CROOKED JUDGES 💩💩💩💩💩💩 POSX6

[galemartin]

Christian conservatives you're going to carry this weight.

[chelseacraft]

Thanks Biden! This is what happens when you refused to enforce the insurrection act!

[Thekingmaker]

An official act would be protecting the nation from someone who says he wants to be a Dictator on day 1.

[fernandoarroyo]

Yea president gets immunity for official acts. Cool. So since this president wants immunity for inciting a insurrection, and mishandling of classified documents, then those actions are official acts of the president. Yea that's exactly who I want running my country. A insurrectionist leader, who doesn't know he shouldn't take classified documents and store them at his resort.

[loricrane]

Very angry. That's what money and blackmail can get you. Judges against our rule of law.

[drockjr]

Ok Biden, I guess Seal team six can take out the insurrectionist now

[bernie]

This Supreme Court needs disposed of it is tainted

[RobertSmith-qqss]

Welcome to the US of A where every idiot is a genius.

[gustanski]

Last I checked overthrowing democracy is not within the president's duties.

[vickyoung]

The President has immunity if his/her actions benefit the United States and are not for personal gain.

[ricardodsavant]

The SC needs to be replaced with people I agree with!!!

[tpharo]

Right took over 6 months to put that out?! Well we already knew that smart guy.

[muxkiet]

Not voting for an insurrectionist. 💙🗳🎯

[SpaceMagicStorm]

This is literally the opposite of what he wanted.... He wanted immunity for all acts including theoretical execution of rival opponents at least that's what his lawyers were arguing not necessarily trump himself....this is just what the freaking appeals court said this is a horrible explanation need a breakdown of the types of acts deemed to be official or not...
