Yesterday we got the news that the Supreme Court had ruled that all president's and ex-presidents, even Donald Trump had complete immunity for acts committed under the imprimatur of their office, while having no immunity for acts committed as private citizens.

presidential immunity exists, but only for certain official actions taken by
the president." Althouse takes note of
"As for a President's unofficial acts, there is no immunity. The principles
we set out in Clinton v. Jones confirm as much."
Sister Toldja at RedState, wants you to WATCH Bill Barr Rip Through Justice Sotomayor's Hysteria Over the SCOTUS
Presidential Immunity Ruling. Vicky Taft at PJM, Supreme Court Justice Thomas Takes Aim at Trump Special Counsel
Prosecutor. "I write separately to highlight another way in which this prosecution may
violate our constitutional structure," Thomas wrote. "In this case, the
Attorney General purported to appoint a private citizen as Special Counsel to
prosecute a former President on behalf of the United States. But I am not sure
that any office for the Special Counsel has been ‘established by Law,’ as the
Constitution requires," he added, citing generalized case law that Attorney
General Merrick Garland said supported his decision to appoint Smith." Spencer

Capt. Ed

hammered it home nicely. From Da Caller, Biden Reads Teleprompter For 5 Minutes, Takes No Questions In First Major
Post-Debate Appearance. Matt Vespa, Biden Shuffled Out to Attack the Supreme Court and Everyone Couldn't Ignore
His New Appearance. Breitbart, Biden Attempts to Reframe Election Around Jan. 6 in Rushed White House
Speech. "Biden, despite reading from a teleprompter, repeatedly slurred his words —
at one point seeming to mistakenly read “end of quote” — in a shaky effort
more notable for its delivery than content (and what appeared to be a newly
applied spray tan). Despite the speech’s brevity, Biden refused to answer
questions from multiple reporters asking about his fitness for office and if
he would step down from the ticket."
Dave Harsanyi at Da Fed explains Why The ‘Biden Stumbled But Trump Lied’ Narrative Is A Myth. Trump lied. And, yes, Biden stumbled — and blatantly and repeatedly lied.

On June 28, 2024, the United States Supreme Court held in Fischer v. United States that a violation of 18 U.S.C. SeƧ. 1512(c)(2) could not be based on allegations involving illegal protest activities, i.e., “by entering and remaining in the United States Capitol without autority and committing an act of civil disorder and engaging in disorderly and disruptive conduct.” In doing so, the Court vacated of every District Court Judge in the District of Columbia who had answered that same question with the opposite finding — except for one.John Sexton gratified as Antifa Goons Who Attacked Trump Supporters in San Diego Sentenced to Jail.
On December 17, 2021, Matthew Perna was charged by the Biden DOJ with violating Sec. 1512(c)(2) “by entering and remaining in the United States Capitol without authority and committing an act of civil disorder, and threatening Congressional officials, and engaging in disorderly and disruptive conduct.”
Pursuant to a pre-indictment plea agreement that had been negotiated between Matthew, assisted of an experience criminal defense attorney, and the Biden DOJ, Matthew entered a plea of “Guilty” to that charge the same day.
On February 25, 2022, only 70 days after pleading guilty and two weeks prior to his scheduled sentencing, Matthew Perna took his own life.
