If the law doesn’t apply to him, it doesn’t apply to any of us. RIP rule of law.

Around 40% to 50% of America yearns for a King.

They were the ones who bothered to show up and vote this time around.

A finger on the monkey's paw curls.

Going to run around setting fire to the cars of the alt-right pricks in my area, and when they come to arrest me tell them that I might be president someday so I'm immune.

Every country that has judicial immunity for elected officials comes to regret it, but then again, those elected officials are the same people who write those laws... Hrmmmm. 🤔

They really are saying what ICC prosecutor Karim Khan said a Western diplomat told him: "The ICC is only for Putin and African thugs".

Out loud.

And shamelessly.

a repeated problem we see in illinois is people who think being a mere governor is sufficient to enter the immunity tier

wagatwe.com•91 days ago

oh no

vegetablegremlin.bsky.social•91 days ago

they keep being proven wrong, so there's that

bsdtectr.bsky.social•91 days ago

Isn’t that basically what the SCOTUS Blog bruv wrote the other day?

The people have spoken, so, gets off.

I don't understand why not continue & make Trump fire him? at least that would set grounds for aother impeachmentt if Dems retake congress. I don't get this at all - what benefit is there to DOJ in dropping the case.

dsmasterson.bsky.social•91 days ago

So, he gets off with stealing Top Secret documents that he has made available to people without clearance and he gets off from attempting to steal an election. Beyond that, there are so many other issues with respect to Trump that we will now never know the truth of. America dies...☹️

Like what was the point of anything Jack Smith has been doing if plan B was always "unless Trump gets reelected then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ lol"

Facade.

Creeping Netanyahuism.

The case was obviously going to go away, but why not make them work for it? The way the Dems are just rolling over is absolutely maddening and disheartening.

papadontpreach.bsky.social•90 days ago

And I raise you anyone who might be a target of retribution should announce now they are running and shout “political interference”

kristianson.bsky.social•91 days ago

💯 certain - so Biden could do something new there are no consequences just saying

ashthebun.bsky.social•91 days ago

Biden won't because Democrats fetishize "the system" more than their ostensible goals.

kristianson.bsky.social•91 days ago

Yes expected that

uwspete.bsky.social•91 days ago

We are a nation of internal memos, prosecutorial discretion, and longstanding departmental policies,

pumabare.bsky.social•91 days ago

A president with absolute immunity.

it's been incredible to read critical social theory about the law as just a tool of oppressing the least powerful only to watch the upper echelons of the legal system basically go "yes, exactly" out in the open

rhacodactylus.bsky.social•90 days ago

that's part of what's particularly frustrating about a lot of the blue MAGA conspiracy nonsense. the upper echelons of our government are rarely being actually secretive about what they're doing, why, and how. there is no conspiracy if they're doing it out in the open!

karistinalafae.bsky.social•90 days ago

Bets on how long it will take the ICC to put him on the list with Netanyahu though?
