- Politicians in Utah are mixed when it comes to Monday’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity and what it means for the future of the country.
A Republic if we can keep it! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
@@ingridgrattidge5887 ….Can’t keep it when all opposition voices are censored or jailed.
@@ynottttTrump isn't in jail so your point escapes us
@@Deelove-yt4yc…..he’s censored and several of his cabinet, employees and supporters are jailed. The point is that you can’t have 2 tiers of justice. You end up with socialism.
no one is above the law even if you are a president or not
No one is below the law, either.
Presumption of innocence, due process, fair and impartial judge and jury, right to question witnesses are among the basic rights that everyone is entitled to.
You are right. The law is the law. (Period)
In real countries.
@@mskayla7747 nobody is arguing against that.
@barnibussnaples6561 glad you think so. However, reality doesn't agree.
C’mon Todd. We the people are governed by laws that we expect our appointed, elected, and hired leaders to abide by. SCOTUS is wrong.
Study the ruling. You’re not understanding it.
The ruling is about official duties versus unofficial. The media is lying to you.
@@ynotttt"The Media" 😂
Read the Constitution, it lays out what the president can do. The Supreme Court's ruling does not permit the President to commit murder, it does not permit him to rob a bank, it does not permit him to commit arson. But it does grant limited power in the execution of the office.
@@AshleyMarks- They should prosecute Biden for drone-bombing that innocent aid worker and his family that were delivering water. Biden thought he was a terrorist, wrongly, and killed him.
You agree that Biden shouldn't have immunity for that, right?
Are we not going to look for the owner of the cocaine? Why isn't someone talking about it?
How about epsteins island or is that case closed now
@@chrisbiermeier9609 Clinton doesn't want you to make a big deal. Plus it's sold to someone else
Unbelievable that anyone thinks this ruling is anything but harmful to democracy.
This ruling helps Biden..
You member that airstrike in Afghanistan he ordered that killed 7 civilians? 4 of them children.
Before this ruling Biden could have been charged with their wrongful deaths. Now he is protected because it was an official act.
You and other Lefties think it's a green light for a President to order an assassination on their rivals. That is not the case.
We're not a Democracy.
Let me guess… these are anti Trumpers in Utah 😂
@@allthings5358 Most likely.
TRUMP 2024
@@thomasalford9349 now more than ever… Trump 2024 !!!!
Why would Trump need more freedom and protection from the law then any other president before him? why do you celebrate 4.of July? if you want a king back?
Why does he need protection that others haven't had? Because other Presidents didn't have the other party indict and bring somebody to trial for act while in office.
This ruling confirms that Presidents have legal rights to act in a proper way in a governmental setting.
Think about it this way, if a President could have charges brought for everything and anything, Obama would be in jail. He ordered drone strikes that killed civilians, ran guns to Mexico, and murdered Bin Laden. Of course he should be and is immune from prosecution.
And before I'm called some bad MAGA name, I have never and will never vote for Trump. Can't stand the guy.
The ruling just says that official acts are protected, otherwise Obama would’ve been prosecuted for accidentally bombing civilians.
Richard Nixon would not have been protected by this because what he did was not an act of a President.
The ruling is a fraction of what you are seeing right now.
Your hand-wringing ignorance is appalling. Nixon had immunity for official acts, not for unofficial acts. The Court clarified the law and how to distinguish between official and unofficial acts and asked the lower court to rule accordingly. Quit acting like some sea-change in the law just occurred. Biden is immune from prosecution for allowing an invasion of the U.S. but he’s not immune for participating in corrupt schemes to enrich his family.
@@monikamorandi2862 Ironically, you pose the question of why should we want a king, and yet I will point out two things that will bite you from your own statement. #1, At his inauguration, then as now, selected voices of the agitators bemoaned the electoral college's roll in electing the President. George Washington cautioned our fledgling nation of the dangers of electing our President by a simple popular vote, and the odds that a wildly popular President voted into office by a simple majority of the electorate could lead this country to a leader akin to the monarchy that this nation had just broken free from.
Ironically, after Biden's supposed trouncing of Trump in 2020 gave him the highest voter turn out and of that, a supposed 81 million votes. The highest number in the history of any election. They beat that drum for the first half of the Biden Presidency. Throw in all of those "Executive Orders" that Biden signed out of the gate attempting to undo Trump's legacy, totally bypassing the Senate and the House, all of that and who's administration looked more like a monarchy? The Biden administration by far.
And given Biden's weaponization of the justice department against his political rivals, who looks more like a king, waving his scepter and banishing his rivals to prison (the dungeon)?
I will acknowledge this, if Trump turn's out to be a monster in his second term, I would lay all of the blame on the Democrats, Liberals, & Progressives, who launched a full scale attack on his Presidency in 2016, before he was even declared the winner! I would lay the blame on 3 meritless impeachment proceedings. I would lay the blame on the members of the media who assailed his character, calling him a rapist when he hasn't been adjudicated of such (Civil proceedings have a far more lax standard of evidence and proof than does a Criminal trial).
Lastly, I would lay the blame on those in power in the Democrat party who refused to do the people's business from 2017-2021, all in the hopes of making Donald J. Trump a lame duck President.
Didn’t we all just witness 6 justices giving aide and comfort to an insurrectionist?!?!?
No you witnessed justice at work !!! What if we charge Biden for his family crime organization !?! Yeah let that sink in !!!
Yes, we did.
What happened on January 6 was our founding father‘s greatest nightmare and should never ever happen again. However, I was Supreme Court seems to think otherwise and will encourage such behavior. We need to overhaul that Supreme Court.
Amen!
Jan 6th was no different than what happened in 2016.
During Trumps inauguration 217 democrats tried to stop it. Failed attempt but still by the democrats logic, still an attempt.
9 police injured, 2 buildings set on fire and a vehicle.
Did you know this? Doubtful..
The Founder’s worst nightmare? An unarmed police-aided entry into the People’s house was their worst nightmare. You suffer from an acute lack of imagination or they did. Far worse would be open borders. Proxy war with Russia? Bureaucrats manufacturing viruses in a Chinese lab then shutting down the country? January 6th was nothing like their worst nightmare.
@@orangeapples3 there’s really no helping you people, so easily tricked
This is SO Utah!!! So glad im not there any more!!!
I bet Romero wouldn't be saying that if her party stayed in the white house forever.
@@carlatamanczyk3891 What???👀
I hate living in Utah., and most of the people here have drank the orange Kool aid. Makes me sick!
You will really be sick when Joe completely engineers this runaway train to Venezuela.
Then MOVE!
Bye Felicia.
@@pauletteriddle3776 Pack up and leave then.
Open boards is illegal and they should be held accountable
It’s not pragmatic. It’s not rational. It’s dictatorial.
THE SUPREME COURT IS MAKING HIM ABOVE THE LAW!! THAT'S WRONG! IN SO MANY WAYS 😡
@lorrieshearer3810 the Supreme Court doesn't make laws. They judge if laws or actions are constitutional, especially in regards to the actions of the government (the constitution being the ultimate law of the land). If you have doubts if they are judged correctly. I suggest that you study the constitution yourself. It's very important not to take anyone's word for it. I personally believe they did their job. I have read and studied the constitution many times. Perhaps reevaluate the information you're viewing, ensuring it is non biased source.
@@ernestcook4285 The supreme court just ruled that the president has absolute immunity to all criminal charges as long as it is conducted under official presidential duties. One of those duties is to operate the united states military, meaning that the president could order the US military to exterminate the entirety of Texas, and the president themselves would be found immune to all criminal charges that would result.
let me repeat, any president who exterminated an entire US states population would be found immune as long as he was ordering the US military to conduct the operation as that is a core duty of the executive branch.
If you dont believe me read the 43+ pages of the supreme courts decision.
He made the Court. He appointed most of them, PERSONALLY....now they are returning a favor....
American Democracy...its different from other Democracies....
@@ernestcook4285
You couldn't be more wrong!!! They let this CREEP slide due to he put them in office!!! So they ARE NOT going by law, their going by what the creep wants!!!
@WholeWhiteBaby I think 2 he nominated, but they were confirmed in the senate,good men and women. They didn't return favors. That's a wacked point of view. They did their job. Judging as to constitionality. You need to get your own talking points. You do this by reading and studying. Read the constitution!!! It is the law of our land.
We are not a democracy. Our form of government is a Constitutional Republic
We need to change how SC justices are chosen.
She is wrong
@@stacygreen7928 Taliban supreme court you will be the last to find out
But she isnt wrong, you are just saying she is....
Rational and pragmatic? Wrong.
Ridiculous and problematic....he used the wrong words...
With people of good character vs people who use lawfare against their opponents. Is anyone innocent of breaking one of the many laws and regulations?
M.o.r.o.n.
TDS is so strong
immunity?...gopgoonery a la mode
VOTE TRUMP 2024
Never tRump. He belongs in prison for treason.
They Dems always have been protected .
Vote blue 💙
I think there is too much time between the election results and the transfer of power.
@@nitwitt50
There certainly was too much time between ballots closing and the final count Talley in 2020.
As well as unbelievable turnout of more than 100 %
You guys still believe that hooey?😖@@qw2ps4
I tend to agree with that. It gives the outgoing administration too much time to bungle things up for the incoming administration. It's supposed to be a peaceful transition. On the surface it appears to be this but it's just a facade. When you scratch the surface it's anything but that.
@@qw2ps4You’ve really got to stop with these debunked claims about the election and everything else under the sun
Amen 🙏
Really? Amen? For a man who rejects God's values....marriage, family, honesty and fairness - he rejects them all...and you cheer for him....
TRUMP 2024!
💙❤
without stupid people, we would never have had the flood.
@@ernestcook4285 Without stupid people, we wouldn’t be claiming Bronze Age barbaric fairy tales were historical fact
Stupid if Trump is "elected " we are screwed 😢😢😢
Well… political persecution prosecution pushed it in the right direction. It’s what you get when all the lies catch up with you.
Nonsense.
What?
B.S.
Rule of law ? That means that Orange stain must be held accountable, PERIOD !
