Justice Jackson raises a red flag on the idea of a president with no legal liability

- čas přidán 24. 04. 2024
- An MSNBC prime time panel discusses the argument made by Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson that making the president above any criminal accountability for crimes they may commit in office presents a greater risk of mushrooming criminal activity in the White House than the "chilling effect" that concerns Donald Trump's legal team and their sympathetic justices.

Judge Jackson was basically saying:
"Power tends to corrupt. Absolute power corrupts absolutely."
He didnt know what he was saying. Just reading a question written for him by someone else! MAGA

@@kingforaday8725 I know what a woman is. But I'm willing to bet you've never been allowed to touch one in your whole life ... Hahahaha!
The fact that this topic is actually being debated in the highest court in the land is an affront to the constitution and to the people of the United States.
And she's not?
@@AsaTrenchard1865how so?
@@pholland8353read it
Exactly
Concerning for sure.
How crazy is it that the Supreme Court is even having to discuss this!
Friggin nuts that the other SCOTUS judges are actually debating this. Absolutely mind blowing.
No it’s not! One of the justices wife was involved in the storming of Jan 6 and nobody’s doing anything about that! These ppl are evil and support it, of course they debate the sensible.
It shouldn't just be Justice Jackson being highly concerned with a President having total immunity, it should be the entire Supreme Court 😮
I agree completely, all they have to do is make a judgement according to the constitution.
But at least five of the people in this court, are politicians masquerading as judges, they are ruling, not according to law, but instead there own personal convictions. They are determined to turn our government into an authoritarian type of rule.
Her opinion is as worthless as she is.
EXACTLY!
how about 50/50???
She just should be glad she has the seat
The President of "Law and Order" doesn't want the law to apply to him. Interesting.
lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So why don't they put this same energy against Biden when he had classified documents in his garage or when he gets his 10% through his son from Ukraine. Left sure likes to scream justice as the completely ignore their own corruption
if this were a normal SCOTUS court, this court would not even be heard, it's too ridiculous! But again, this is not a normal court, nor are these normal times.
Justice Jackson is Out Shining your 8 Senior Justices!
But don't call her a 'her', she might take it personal.
@@AsaTrenchard1865 her was not mention..
yes indeed so proud of her
@@sheritacotten5293 I watched her Confirmation Hearings. I felt for the first time since Thurgood Marshall; that here was a Person who make an Outstanding Chief Justice!! I saw the Three Trump Appointees lying, that they would protect the Constitution! I Grieved when Ruth Bader Ginzberg passed on, and when Justice Jackson was Sworn in. I Saw Hope!! You have every right to be proud of her!!
@@sheritacotten5293 You're just jokin around .... right ?
Here's a redder flag: *We can't have 3 coequal branches of government if the president is above the law!* If the justices just focus on that undeniable fact, this whole thing could be done in 1 minute.
You’re a genius!!
Exactly!
Agreed. It's certainly hard to compare what would be a similar act amongst the three, but if the president can't be prosecuted for breaking laws, that certainly seems like he has more power than the other 2 branches.
SCOTUS NEEDS checks n balances too!! Term limits, something, because these “purchased” justices are co-conspirators involved in Trumps diabolical coup. They sold their voice out of greed and addiction to control. A treasonous coup that is butchering the constitution to fit their oath violating agenda. If it’s ruled broad presidential immunity is factual, then I hope Biden does something to violate Trumps rights since he has been violating the American people’s civil rights for years and years.
Yes, there would be no more safeguards, especially the one they're trying to take away
He's not arguing, "I didn't do it." He's arguing, "I should have permission to do it."
actually, Trump's argument is much closer to "i give myself all the permission i need to do whatever TF i want!"
in his case, that would be a monarchy or a hereditary dictatorship.
Yeah it's more like "I shouldn't even be questioned for doing it". He doesn't even expect permission.
That's a king.
@@SecretSauceyjuice Asolutist king. Kings have no power these days and in the past they had restrictions on their rule. Most of them. Dictator is a better word.
IF POTUS is immune then what the reasoning behind Nixon's pardon for Watergate/other crimes committed while POTUS?
@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 True. King in a more classic sense of the word, but dictator is probably a more appropriate term by modern vernacular.
Justice Jackson is the only one making sense of this mess, thank you very much for your clarity.
SMARTEST JUDGE IS JUSTICE JACKSON
This is absurd. We already rejected a king.
Maybe you shouldn’t have lol😂
Kings I believe are subject to law,this is arbitrating for a DICTATOR???
That's right and today you have to fight hard against a dictatorship! Democracy is a continuous fight!
Sorry what?
And nobody said it wasn’t a continuous process.
Thank you for playing.
God save King Dark Joe the first Brandon! History will remember the first absolutely immune POTUS. The first emperor of America. Also the only one. After he canceled his powers after 15 minutes of tyranny. By enforcing an amendment that there mustn’t be any criminal immunity for the POTUS. “Congressmen … you better sign a law specifying that the POTUS may not commit crime… or I’ll commit crimes! Justices… you better rule that the law saying that the POTUS may not commit crimes is a Constitutional law… or I’ll commit crimes! I have SEAL Team 6 standing by!”
Jackson laid it out! This is the whole case, not the mess the other justices made.

If you don't commit any crimes why do you need immunity?
He's not arguing he didn't commit crimes, he's saying he's so special they shouldn't be crimes if HE does them only when others do them, especially if they do them to him.
Welcome to the double standards of narcissists.

@@Shadowx157 I live in a monarchy. While the royal family do get away with some bending of the laws, there is no way they'd get the sort of full immunity trump is claiming. He is a dictator.

More UNBELIEVABLE Is Why Isn’t Cheetos trump in Jail Already????
How can a court be split over immunity? He's not immune!! Video doesn't lie!!!
What video?
ALL AMERICANS
WE NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO
WHAT THEY ARE PROPOSING HERE.
THE FACT THAT SCOTUS IS EVEN
HEARING THIS CASE IS A LEVEL OF CHICANERY THAT THE JUDICIAL BRANCH
HAS NEVER SEEN BEFORE!
Hey, Trump campaigned hard in 2016, shouting "Nobody is above the law, NOBODY!" Why aren't all the videos of this being played to SCOTUS?
And Fox agreed that having a candidate under indictment would be very bad.
Him yelling that ought not affect a courtroom. But the MEDIA ought to show them before any coverage of this stupid nonsense.
Good point. And sky-written, while they're at it.
You'll still failing to understand this opp started decades ago 🤔
Let's find out, whether his mother had the maiden name "Nobody" and he will switch to that in case of emergency.
How is Clarence Thomas even still a judge? That sleaze has been clouded in controversy since my high school days and I'm pushing 50.
Because Trump took the bar and buried it in the core of the planet. Not even James Cameron can raise it.
Does crying help you with the pain?

@@muddywater4505nar let him have immunity and Joe can call in a hit on him before the election. Problem solved.
I can still hear him carefully speaking his scripted line about "this high tech lynching." With the voice of someone tossing it out there to see if it would work.
She is spot on!! No one else has presented it that way or said that. What she said is the bottom line..period! That should be a yes or no answer…not all the long drawn out exceptions Sauer talks about.
Don’t know why people are so surprised that the hearings went the way they did? When they said that they would hear the case,that told us that this was going to happen…🤔🤔
“Raises a red flag”?!?!?? Folks we are way past red flags, she was pulling the fire alarm.
The Fire is already here! When The country look like A dictatorship, Trump is not The Enemy, And the World knows TDS IS BURING THEMSELVES AND ALL OF THE COUNTRY With HATE SPITE Bitterness etc etc etc go figure, People are getting sick Of these Nut eggs, Truth be Told,
More like telling us it’s over unless we get rid of the other justices
Exactly
This court is an embarrassment.
They would give us a king.
which is essentially a hereditary dictatorship with absolute power (e.g. Kim Jong Un and pretty much all of european royalty up to WWI)
King Charles has NO political power . It is the British GOVERMENT that rules England .
Worse! I'm living in Europe. Our King wouldn't be able to do what Trump did, and get away with it like Trump does.
It is as tragic as it is interesting (from a historical point of view) to see democracy deteriorating in the US so fast, and at almost every level.
Be not mistaken: No matter how US still believes it is, or at least presents itself as 'the greatest democracy', it isn't. Not by a longshot, and I even doubt it will be a democracy at all, by the end of this year.
Sad.
No a Dictator that would have no need of a court...
@@loue-blackWhich is actually completely stupid. But they don’t seem to care, do they?
Most of them will be able to retire then, mission accomplished.
No!!! A president should be held accountable if he breaks the law without extreme circumstances! No if ands or buts about it! And we need to make sure the entire country understands this!
She is the only one raising flags then something is WRONG !!!
No one has to be on the SC to know this is not even a topic of discussion.
Justices are supposed to make decisions based on the constitution not on personal political or religious beliefs. If they can't do that it is time to devolve Scotus.
You sound like an originalist. I thought you people on the left believed in a living breathing Constitution.
She can't define 'woman' so her opinion is worthless.
True
The very thought that a current or past President is immune from prosecution at any time, is absurd in the extreme.
Justice Jackson 100% spot on
judge jackson 🟦🟦👍👍
It is a pathetic waste of time and intelligence that we are even having such a ridiculous conversation. This whole mess makes me ashamed and embarrassed to be an American.
Well put and right on! Thank you.
We hear you brother.
“Pathetic” and “ridiculous” are woefully inadequate adjectives. Disturbing and dangerous rather.
Already this SCOTUS has allowed for women to be stripped of some of their most basic rights and now they are moving to make an insurrectionist not punishable and dictatorship legal.
Not a time to be dismissive when our democracy and our rights are under attack.
💯 % exactly spot on.
How far SCOTUS has fallen and how far SCOTUS is dragging the reputation of the USA down with them.
God bless Justice Jackson! Common sense at last....
If a president can order a military coup, there won't be a Congress to indict or convict the President. There also won't be a Supreme Court to have second thoughts on their decisions here.
And if the orange man can't get the Supreme Court to vote in his favor, he will follow through with Agenda 47 and do it anyway by ending democracy outright. Which is why we all need to vote blue and stop that from happening.
She was the only one speaking sense, amazing, thank you!!!
Yep. Kids will discuss this case in law school in 20 years. Whatever the instant decision, she will be remembered for outlining a clear message of the issue at hand..
Thank you Justice Jackson.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is 100 % Correct !
You got that right. Vote blue.💙🗽🇺🇸☮️
I love this SCOTUS she seems to love our country and is saying what she feels is wrong with this picture. America deserves to have a president that believes in the rule of law the Constitution, American People and Democracy and knowledge that Presidents aren't Kings like someone thinks he is..Please Trump can't have full immunity if so all Presidents from this day on would have it too and then we would have no order in our. country.
Now if she could define what a woman is… 🤡🤡🤡🌎🌎🌎🐑🐑🐑

Yep!! Thank you Justice Jackson, for being so clear.
And so sane.
She's correct on so many levels here. This is the United States of America on planet Earth, not the entirety of planet Mobius (in SatAM and Sonic Underground).
I disagree, only from the perspective of my legal experience in appellate legal practice… It is a little bit concerning that there is zero check and balance on the highest court in our land, the last word….
The Supreme Courts’ only role, is merely to interpret the law, based on different facts or situations and apply the interpretation in that full fact pattern.
The Supreme Court, does not have any checks or balance safeguards, as the other two branches of government…
So, this is more than troublesome to me, as one who is blessed to have framework to understand the dynamics, of law and government bc i attended law school and studied government, The constitution, etc.
But this is not politics today. That’s hat is use to be called.
BUT EVEN THE FACT WE ARE HERE IN THIS SLIPPERY SLOPE THAT DEMOCRACY IS ON, I AM HOPEFUL FOR UNITY ON THE THINGS THAT WE ALL HAVE IN COMMON THAN BELIEFS-or-OPINIONS OVERVALUED …If they separate us, or make people angry, those beliefs need to be reconsidered and re valued.
As humans, we have so much more in common, and just from the human experience, than we ever will hold different opinions and especially beliefs about. A belief, one that separated us as fellowmen and women. It should be reconsidered in the individuals head. We are all blessed.
But, I’m hopeful, that in the end, this commonality , is recognized as more important than just us or our circle of family… and it brings to light, what is really important in life.
reason…But hopefully😮, just 1 more surgery to fix left of 8…. 7 of which shouldn’t have been necessary.
supposed to be followed i prior supreme court decisions, called precedent. This awfully cynical and privileged court overturned Roe v Wade and Casey, the two supreme court decisions allowing women and their families interest/care/future being involved and or merely being effected by this …those that support their wives, their moms, their sisters, their nieces, their Aunts, their female cousins , their great nieces and nephews families, their granddaughters or granddaughters to come possibly.
She's a true Democrat and activist💙💙💙
@@EvesRevengeThe Supreme Court has become a political institution, the US should change the constitution to change the appointment process for Supreme Court justices. Not an appointee by the President and agreement by Congress but a real election by the people, like voting for a police chief or DA. And also change the stupid system of the presidential election, where you don’t vote for the president but for a representative of a college which will vote for the president. It is an ancient system which doesn’t reflect the current possibilities. With the current system a candidate can win the presidential election without the popular vote and the candidate who does get the popular vote can not. This is outrageously undemocratic.
A Black woman trying her best to save this planet, one intelligent conversation at a time.
What does skin color have to do with anything? You racist or something?
I can’t believe the US Supreme Court is even spending time and taxpayers money discussing if a president should be immune from ANY prosecution 😮.
Raskin is right, those other Justices should just move into the Republican building because they are political, not judicial... KBJ was so spot on! That lawyer is ridiculous.. Presidents should not be above the law! This is so insane the 4 political people of the court even wanted this.. Insane!
Meanwhile the corrupt Alito doesn't want to get into facts.
As opposed to someone who can't define 'woman'?
@@AsaTrenchard1865 easily distracted , I see.
