@surfingthepast.bsky.social: I don't see why Democrats don't immediately launch a campaign against SC. "We support rule of law, no one is above the law, this court must be replaced with judges who follow the constitution as written and support our democratic traditions in full." etc etc.

RICHARD NIXON: Listen, you all laughed when I said that if the president does it, that means that it is not illegal, BUT WHO’S LAUGHING NOW

Does this ruling affect lackeys and henchmen? If the President orders you to go kill John Roberts is the guy who pulls the trigger still a criminal if the president isn’t?
