The President is now a king above the law.”
Justice Sotomayor of the United States Supreme Court dissenting opinion on Donald Trump Immunity Case. Justice Robert’s Immunity Ruling.
“The President of the United States is the most powerful person in the country, and possibly the world,” Sotomayor continued. “When he uses his official powers in any way, under the majority’s reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.
