Nothing Will Stand in Trump’s Way With Supreme Court’s Immunity Ruling

Neal Katyal explains how the Supreme Court’s ruling on Presidential immunity makes it much more difficult to prosecute someone who, as president broke, criminal law.

Neal Katyal is the person I've been waiting to hear from. Thanks Katie and Neal 💙

[JacksMomPat]

Thanks Katie, for bringing Neal on today to help us try to decipher this situation, which is horrific.

[robinhoodyyc]

Did the SC just unilaterally change the constitutional Republic of the US to an autocracy?

[donald-parker]

The solution is obvious. Joe now has the power to do anything. Throw out this absurd ruling, replace all the SCOTUS judges, and even engage Seal Team 6. Until this absurd ruling is thrown out, Joe can do it. And he should.

[lilyswan]

Can’t Biden fire the court and start over as an official act?

[AlyseCafasso]

I'm so grateful to hear Neal's thoughts on this decision

[linscrattish]

Today, I thought about Anita Hill who, back in
'91 tried to warn this
country about Thomas.
Women keep trying to
save this country.

[medygantz]

Thank you for bringing Neal on to explain this today. I’m very worried.

[divermike]

Most Americans don't even understand how serious this is or how it might affect them.

[theresajeffries]

I always feel relieved when I see Neil as Katie’s guest -he can explain things clearly and without bias

[Lizvix]

Is asking Georgia to find $11k + votes a presidential act????
CRAZY! How did we get here?

[rodcaskey]

I’m 72 and sometimes remembering just when I learned things is a bit cloudy. So, I think that elementary school was when we started leaning about the founding of the United States, the reasons for the revolution and the principles. Of the many beliefs and goal was that we did not royalty - kings or queens . No one was above the law. This has been reinforced at nearly every turn - from Washington refusing to take a third term to Nixon resigning rather than facing impeachment and criminal trial. Now SCOTUS has thrown all of that out the door. We lived for over 200 years without immunity for a president. We don’t need it now. IMPEACH the majority signees of this decisions.

[edithkatz]

And Biden should make good use of this ruling immediately...

[integralsun]

Neal is clearly disturbed and saddened by this decision as we all are (or should be). I’d like to cheer Neal up but he understands the direction our country is heading and things are looking pretty grim at the moment.

[Chez-kfcy]

How heartbreaking. I've lost my country. It's now owned and ruled by the billionaire class.

[dodipalmer]

The Heritage Foundation got the justices they paid for. This has to change.

[JR-prjb]

I can't imagine the flood of campaign contributions President Biden must be receiving right now. I'm sending my poor pittance, and the lines are jammed.

[genovevabaculi]

Which matters most to Americans? The debate or the SCOTUS decision? Forget about the debate. SCOTUS decision matters! Biden stands for democracy!

[franlan]

Thanks Katie for interviewing Neal! You are one of the few reporters we can depend on for bringing truth to light!

[carmelaguanciale]

I can’t believe how many Americans are so eager to give up their freedoms and rights because of one con man who has never told the truth.
