The District Court denied Trump’s motion to dismiss, holding that former Presidents do not possess federal criminal immunity for any acts. The D. C. Circuit affirmed. Both the District Court and the D. C. Circuit declined to decide whether the indicted conduct involved official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts. Trump asserts a far broader immunity than the limited one the Court recognizes, contending that the indictment must be dismissed because the Impeachment Judgment Clause requires that impeachment and Senate conviction precede a President’s criminal prosecution. But the text of the Clause does not address whether and on what conduct a President may be prosecuted if he was never impeached and convicted. Historical evidence likewise lends little support to Trump’s position. The Federalist Papers on which Trump relies concerned the checks available against a sitting President; they did not endorse or even consider whether the Impeachment Judgment Clause immunizes a former President from prosecution. Transforming the political process of impeachment into a necessary step in the enforcement of criminal law finds little support in the text of the Constitution or the structure of the Nation’s Government. The President enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official. The President is not above the law.

So much has happened since Jimmy went on vacation. Absolute insanity, there’s the immunity decision by scrotus, and then the head of the heritage foundation (project 2025) was live on the news saying there would be bloodshed if democrats didn’t step aside. Republicanism is complete lunacy

Just remember. Even thought Biden had a HORRIBLE dabte. You gotta look at the overall picture. Trump lies, comes up with excuses, and just think what he will do if the economy gets any worse. He will just come up with more excuses. Vote BIDEN, and stop this stress America.

Jake Byrd is awesome! I’ll never forget when he was outside the courthouse for the Martha Stewart trial. As she was entering the courthouse with her team, he was off to the side shouting, Two, four, six, eight! Set her free to decorate! LMAO!

For people claiming Trump is With It, and a genious, charge him with posing as a Doctor. He did three times bry prescribing Bleach, a Horse Laxative and posed as an Oncologist by telling people Windmills cause cancer.

Jimmy would be one of the first people to be arrested in a Trump dictatorship. He would immediately go to the first Trump concentration camp. He would be with: Biden, Obama, Hillary and many other Democrats.

20 years ago, that's the last time a Republican presidential candidate has won the popular vote. Since 2004, the Republican Party has relied upon gerrymandering and the electoral vote.

Ah, NOW I understand the insanity. Trump has 'given permission' to all losers to reject everything good and to especially avoid common sense at all costs. VOTE BLUE!

It's sad that these people actually believe Trump's lies. If Trump wins it will be the end of the world. Trumps wins = We all lose.
