Just recorded this week’s Serious Trouble.
Don’t listen hoping for bunnies and rainbows.
Aside from the immunity debacle, the obstruction decision, a Cannon ruling, and a brief dive into the administrative state cases.
Does it include Trump trying to use the immunity decision to get the NY conviction overturned since they used acts while in office as evidence? Or did that come out too late?
How can acts of corporate fraud be "official presidential acts"? He acted in his capacity as a corporate office to commit corporate fraud concering disbursement of corporate funds, while hiding it all from White House comms. How can any of it possibly qualify as "official acts"?
The opinion says you can’t even offer EVIDENCE of official acts, let alone prosecute based on them. Talking to underlings can be an official act. The prosecution in that case offered evidence of some discussions with underlings in 2018.
Jesus Christ, what a heaping shitburger of an opinion.
Too bad Joe won't use the power he’s been given to save the republic and fix this mess. Watching him squander his one chance to save millions of lives is going to be epically tragic.
Justice Merchan previously considered Trump's immunity defense (including as to presentation of evidence) and held it had been waived (even before the SC opinion). Do you think he will still find the waiver relevant?
