Schumer plans to strip former President Trump of presidential immunity


Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced Monday that he and other Senate Democrats will work to advance legislation to strip former President Trump of the immunity he was granted under a recent Supreme Court ruling protecting a president’s official acts from criminal prosecution.

Schumer, invoking Congress’s powers to regulate the courts, said Democrats are working on legislation to classify Trump’s efforts to subvert the results of the 2020 election as “unofficial acts” so they do not merit immunity from criminal prosecution under the high court’s recent 6-3 decision.

“They incorrectly declared that former President Trump enjoys broad immunity from criminal prosecution for actions he took while in office. They incorrectly declared that all future presidents are entitled to a breathtaking level of immunity so long as their conduct is ostensibly carried out in their official capacity as president,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.

Schumer said the court’s conservative justices had “effectively placed a crown on Donald Trump’s head,” putting him above the law and making him “in many ways untouchable.”

Comment:
The Democrat Party is a dangerous totalitarian cult.
Schumer will have to amend the constitution if he wants to strip presidents of immunity.
The Dirty Democrats can't win on the issues, so they are attempting win by arresting Trump on bogus indictments.
They are as corrupt as a banana republic junta.
They are not saving "democracy", they are destroying it.
Trumps actions were unofficial. He used campaign funds to fund his attempts to subvert the election. No taxpayer dollars were used. Which makes it unofficial.
 
Didn't happen. Pelosi isn't in charge of them.
Yes it did. We have the video dumbass.

Nancy takes responsibility. She supervised Sgt. at Arms Irving.

Nancy Pelosi says ‘I take responsibility’ for not having National Guard at the Capitol on Jan. 6 in video shot by her own daughter​


Sund said he spoke to both Stenger and Irving about requesting the National Guard in the days before the riot, and that Irving said he was concerned about the “optics” of having them present.

On 3 Jan the President asked the Def Dept to deploy NG troops’ into DC for J6 contingencies.

Lock her up.
 
The USSC's immunity ruling just shoved the democrat's "Lawfare" scams up the democrat's collective asses.

Schumer can try to save the Lawfare scams, but the USSC always wins.
 
The same guy who organized a mob to surround the homes of Supreme Court Justices to intimidate them now plans to override the Constitutional protection of the president? In a just world Schumer would have been investigated and possibly indicted for his part in the attempted assassination of Justice Kavanaugh.
