"IRONY" Joe Biden says "the supreme court decisions lets Presidents ignore the law". I guess Joe Biden's memory really is going.

President Joe Biden blasted the Supreme Court’s decision granting former and future presidents immunity from prosecution for official acts saying it gives the executive office, and possibly Donald Trump, the power “to do whatever he pleases, whenever he wants to do it.”

Hey Joe i know in your feeble brain that you did this just a few months ago, but cant remember.

President Joe Biden bragged Wednesday about defying the Supreme Court over student loans and appeared to slip up verbally in doing so.
The Supreme Court struck down Biden's $400 billion student loan forgiveness plan in June, ruling it was an illegal use of the president's powers. But since then, Biden has pushed forward with several smaller rounds of cancellation anyway.

Maybe the 25th amendment should be used on Joe Biden, because he definitely cant stand trial for the crimes that he has done. I say let Kamela Harris should be President for the remaining term, till Nov and let the people decide if Democrats or President Trump should be the 47th President, in a Democratic way. I mean everyone on this board believes in the Democratic processes, right?

It's a day of epic moonbat meltdowns.....My heart feels like an alligator.

amazing what can happen after you get your ass kicked in a debate

 

[BluesLegend]

In other words Biden's lawfare scheme to RIG the election blew up in his stupid face.

 

[BluesLegend]

It's only a matter of time before Democrats scream about rigging the SCOTUS with another 10 liberal justices.

 

[IM2]

There has been no lawfare by Biden.

 

[pknopp]

While hypocritical it's a very good point. Can a president now simply state he is carrying out the requirements of the office and ignore the Supreme Court or really, any law that gets passed?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

The mental contortions on what if isms are epic. This is good stuff.

 

[Resnic]

And what about all the laws he ignored? Like the equal opportunity employment act he broke when he said he would put a black woman on the supreme court? That was racist and sexist and he did it anyway. Or all the other times he proudly proclaimed all the special rights and privileges blacks should get just for being black?

What about all the Americans endangered by rapists, thieves, murders, drug runners and so on when he let tens of millions illegally enter the country freely?

 

[struth]

well you have a point, it's clear Xiden is too senile to actually run the show. He was merely a puppet these past four years. The lawfare comes from the Demafascist party.

Presidents have ignored laws that were passed, Xiden himself has ignored immigration laws. Happens all the time.

As far as ignoring Court orders, certainly it's possible, Xiden for example, as a Senator back in the 70s tried to get people not to enforce Brown v Board of Education.

And as I said, this was a perfect opportunity for the court to end that. Instead they found a protection that does not exist anywhere in the Constitution which is what they pretend to care about.

The Founders clearly believed in "Equal protection of the law" which means NO ONE is above the law. Our "Constitutional Scholars" here must have forgot to actually read it.

Why would they end it?

Equal protection under the law doesn’t mean the govt can be prosecuted for doing it’s job. It deals with citizens not govt.

What part of that don’t you understand?

 

[pknopp]

Could you not read what I wrote? I explained why.

Nope.

Nope.

Nope what?

so you think govt should be able to prosecute itself? How in the world would that work??

The same way it would have for Nixon if Ford hadn't pardoned him.

If a president is guilty of criminal activity, there is a process called impeachment and a Senate trial for his/her removal from office. So any president is not a king that cannot be removed as a result of high crimes and misdemeanors. This is what Chief Justice Roberts wrote :

“A President inclined to take one course of action based on the public interest may instead opt for another, apprehensive that criminal penalties may befall him upon his departure from office.” Later, he details the principles involved. “Taking into account these competing considerations, we conclude that the separation of powers principles explicated in our precedent necessitate at least a presumptive immunity from criminal prosecution for a President’s acts within the outer perimeter of his official responsibility,” he notes. “Such an immunity is required to safeguard the independence and effective functioning of the Executive Branch, and to enable the President to carry out his constitutional duties without undue caution. Indeed, if presumptive protection for the President is necessary to enable the ‘effective discharge’ of his powers when a prosecutor merely seeks evidence of his official papers and communications, it is certainly necessary when the prosecutor seeks to charge, try, and imprison the President himself for his official actions. At a minimum, the President must therefore be immune from prosecution for an official act unless the Government can show that applying a criminal prohibition to that act would pose no ‘dangers of intrusion on the authority and functions of the Executive Branch.’”

You are focusing just on Trump based on your TDS, instead of the long view of how every president needs to do his job and how his political foes should not have the ability to hinder his actions unless the prosecution can show that 'applying a criminal prohibition to that act would pose no ‘dangers of intrusion on the authority and functions of the Executive Branch.’

What I find funny is that Biden and the left freely attack judges in courts, including the highest court in the land, but they put gag orders on Trump so that he can't attack judges in courts without being under the threat of being jailed.

Ford had no plans to prosecute Nixon....and if he did, what....have this litigated then? Same results....soveign immunity existed then too.
