And no one is going to do a damn thing about this because the US is not a nation of laws anymore.
Just so you don’t have to read through the article to find out which law he broke this time: he used the presidential seal while he spoke at a private, for-profit event.
Oh, yeah, of EVERYTHING he’s done, this is the thing that will finally land him in prison.
I mean, al capone was brought down due to some tax issue. Sometimes they gotta get a really good grip on a small thread and just keep pulling
al capone was brought down due to some tax issue.
…and a government organization with the will to do what’s right and pursue justice. Do you expect to see that from the people Republicans and Trump put in place??
May have
Is he ever not violating federal law?
Once he forgot to take his phone to the toilet
lol. Only when he’s making the unintentional ‘mistakes’
Lol they gonna put him in prison?
We all know what makes this stop.
Somebody has to do it eventually.
Let me know when he follows the law.
Yeah. He breaks laws multiple times a day.
We live in an authoritarian fascist state now.
NOT hyperbole.
may have
It was pretty fucking blatant, actually.
Whoa, trump violated a law??? We’ve got him now!
I’m over these headlines. The Supreme Court said he has presidential immunity. The law doesn’t apply.
He has immunity for “Official” presidential acts. Establishing/ promoting a private business concern is NOT an official presidential act.
The SC retained the right to define what constitutes “official.” Which this will be.
And you’re just going to comply with that?
I for one would still want to call out whats being done, to make a record for future generations if nothing else.
Are you really such a good little soldier that the supreme court makes a bad decision and you immediately reorient your entire moral framework to match?
They said he has immunity for official duties. This article is about him using the presidential seal for non-official duties. I don’t think anything is going to happen still, but even the insane SC ruling doesn’t give him immunity for this.
The ruling outlined that official duties includes pretty much everything he does while president, unless he explicitly states it’s not in his capacity as president or for national interests, which he won’t do in court, so effectively, yes, he has complete immunity. The “official” part is just a fig leaf to give the ruling the appearance of jurisprudence.
He’ll just say something like he was using it to build relationships with the leaders of other countries or some ridiculous bullshit. Unfortunately “official” while obvious to us may be more ambiguous to the law.
At this point it’s basically just propaganda to give the illusion that something is being done.
Like how Putin has elections
I fear it means nothing
Well there will be court cases that will drag on for months which he will whine persistently. So not exactly nothing, just more whining.
yeeh, my first though was “ooh, that’s gonna command a few marches…” fuck
edit - i should be productive and not just cynical. who’s arranging the president’s birthday concert? do we have springstein? vedder? come on y’all
It’s a perfect time for Rage to do a pop up concert in DC.
Mother fucker is breaking every law he can. Who will stop him?
Mario’s brother?
nobody dies with dignity. golden toilet child’s days are numbered, and even he can’t stop it. it’s creeping, and it’ll hit him in about 20 years if the world stays as fair as it’s been. buckle up.
and most of 'em don’t have a fucking thing to do with ‘official’ duties
That ruling defined official duties so broadly it’s actually virtually impossible for anything he does to not be “official” by the SC’s standards.

Don’t worry, guys. Pam Bondi is in charge of the DoJ, and there’s no way she’s going to let this slide. /s
What are you going to do, arrest me?
:(
So sick of “may have” headline.
Trump loves to sue. May as well make it harder for him.
Dude violates federal law every day
Well, he has immunity
