Supreme Court sends Trump immunity case back to lower court

The Supreme Court has ruled for the first time that former presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts. President Joe Biden said Monday night the ruling undercut accepted limits on the presidency dating all the way back to George Washington. But former President Donald Trump celebrated a “Big Win” that extended the delay in the Washington criminal case against him on charges he plotted to overturn his 2020 election loss. There is little chance Trump could be tried before the November election.

@courtcan I suggest the current President restores order by using this chaos. He can dissolve SCOTUS and replace it with one that reverses this ruling as its first act. It is non-violent AND, almost paradoxically, affirms his commitment to the rule of law. #DissolveSCOTUS
