- An MSNBC prime time panel share overall assessments of the arguments presented to the Supreme Court today on the question of whether "presidential immunity" protects Donald Trump from being prosecuted for his role in the January 6 insurrection, and the brazen manner in which some of the partisan justices showed their willingness to manipulate the case to Donald Trump's benefit.

Agreed fascism is here
That these corrupt elderly men's names are preceded by the title 'Justice' is a cynical humiliation of the American people.
100% + Agree with you.
..and that Thomas didn't recuse himself shows their corruption knows no end.
Yeah, but if they voted the way you wanted, they would’ve been awesome right. Some of y’all are disgusting.
Plus, these justices are too stupid to understand that, they too, could be considered political rivals of the president, if they don't rule in his/her favor.
@@spiceyhotpot Thomas is, was and always will be an abject disgrace to the Supreme Court. His appointment NEVER should have occurred. The fact that he is only the second black male after Thurgood Marshall, who embodied what a justice should be like, makes it even more insulting.
Injustices Thomas and Alito are nothing short of disgusting. They both need to be removed and sent out to pasture. Don’t let them go quietly either. People need to speak up and let them know we see through their corruption

DEMOCRAT Junta actions
One of junta leader Biden's first official acts was the firing the nation's African American Surgeon General. He then issued racist and xenophobic travel ban orders against people from South Africa. The announcement of Biden's appointment of white supremacist Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development was met with "peaceful protests" by DEMOCRAT Black Lives Matter.
Biden told his junta organizing committee,
“ This country is doomed! It is doomed not just because of African Americans, but because by 2040 this country is going to be minority white European! Hear me! Minority white European! ”
At a Milwaukee townhall meeting in February 2021 Biden claimed Blacks and Hispanics were too stupid to understand how to use the internet
WHY CAN'T THESE JUSTICES BE INPEACHED... THIS IS B.S.
They can be but you first need grounds to do so.
Trump 2024
@@billybarnes1763 There are plenty sufficient grounds to impeach Clarence Thomas. The Constitution says federal judges and justices shall hold their offices "during good behavior." It does not specify high crimes and misdemeanors for them. Clarence Thomas was corrupted and compromised long before January 6, 2021. Jennie Thomas did not act in concert with the 2021 insurrection independently of her "friend" on the U.S. Supreme Court. His failure to recuse himself from all things trump, the 2020 election and the insurrection are very, very troubling.
It is absolutely mind boggling that we have people like this on the Supreme Court’s!
Clarence Thomas is the man of the year!!! I love him and God bless him. You’re full of hate and liberals and Dems need to get a life. Your logics have failed your kids and America is being ruined. Wake up America vote trump❤

I think the not-so-supreme court is doing several things...
1. They are twisting themselves into knots to assist trump and STALL.
2. They are causing a delay such that some of trump's trials cannot/will not occur before the 2024 election.
3. By not handing down a decision before the prez election, they are rolling the dice to see which candidate wins.
4. If Biden wins, they will rule against immunity because they don't want anyone that is not trump to have immunity. They will TRY to pass this off as being non-partisan in an effort to regain some of the credibility they have lost (don't be fooled! It would be just a BS show, until the next R is elected).
5. If trump wins, only then will they grant prez immunity to forever protect their favored prez.
This tactic is a win-win for the scotus first and foremost, because unfortunately, that is ALL they care about first. Promoting/protecting/saving an R pres is secondary.
That's what I would do if I was a corrupt, immoral, unethical, biased, agenda-based, all-powerful body with seemingly unchecked power and lifetime appointments.
Reprehensible!
LOGIC needs to be present. But it cannot be forgotten ....HUMPTY TRUMPTY is a PUBLICLY AND INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN ...CON ARTIST FRAUDSTER. HE WILL have behind the scenes, many similar-minded con artists in the form of lawyers, being very well paid, to "influence" strategic justices with whatever it takes ...deals, properties, cash, or whatever it takes, to come up with some cock-a-mammie "explanation" or "reasoning" to support any kind of level of "immunity".
Remember, TRUMPY's many trials are on the basis he has BROKEN THE LAW. THIS is his MODUS OPERANDI....and it will NEVER change.......and did I mention he is also a habitual LIAR? Remember, he recently stated that the judge would not let him attend Barron's graduation? The judge said no such thing.
.
Well yeah but how would you get a fully entrenched Manchurian candidate of the Democrats out of there to where he can be tried in front of the American people for the OJ in Mount of evidence against this Asian of the eve of the Chinese or anyone with a dollar so it's going to take us a while have some patience and we'll get those Democrats behind bars where they belong I don't fret even these guys up above here and know what to say that they didn't stop cool against the president of the United States and it interfered with the validation process of the election by letting the guard down at the Capitol and now they're doing the same thing at the border so don't worry Mexican mega is here now and we will have Justice in this country by the real rule of law.
..mate, we all are. Massive concern worldwide 🇬🇧
We were in trouble the minute Trump was elected, as the establishment showed us how evil and corrupt they actually are. That’s changing. Trump 2024!!!
Out of the nine SCJ’s, six of them should be released from their duties.🤦♂️
They can be impeached!
I know right... Just because they wont rule the way that we want.
Permanently.
@@billybarnes1763 No, billy, it's because they're pushing the false notion that an individual can be completely and wholly above the law. As judges, they're demonstrating that they are politically motivated rather than motivated by justice and the application of the law. That makes them unequivocally unfit for office.
@@Richard-sy1ej Well, it took 4 of them to decide to take this case. I don't think Amy is MAGA, and if she is, I don't think that she's so blithely eager to ignore her duty as the men are, and I would be surprised if she voted to take this case, which simply delays Trump's major trial so that if he wins the election, he will order it dropped. Who are the 4 or more? Thomas and Alito are definite. Gorsuch, probable. Kavanaugh a bit less probable. Roberts even a bit less probable. But whoever on SCOTUS voted to take this case should be impeached. I'm not so happy with the Lib women either, who are chickenshit to make controversial rulings (like the CO insurrection disqualification case), while the Cons have no such timidity.
Agree with Chris Hayes. Even we citizens can see the obvious that No person is above the law. For the Supreme Court to even discuss this in the way they have without stating simply, No President has immunity for crimes committed.
Wow...Chris Hayes, a source of inspiration. JOKE OF THE DAY FROM A MARXIST CLOWN
puting america first,not starting wars,not suporting genoside are crimes now?
Exactly.
This is deeply, deeply disturbing. This country is in great peril. Unbelievable.
Yes, because Comrade Bidenov is president.
@@JohnWarner-lu8rq Really? Biden's not Putin's comrade, tRump is! Against stupidity even the gods struggle in vain. I'd love to know your education level?😉
It's in great peril if Biden is reelected
We can't let Trump win this election, or he will use this power the Supreme Court is about to give him to stay in office indefinitely. He's a deranged, lying criminal who wants to be an authoritarian dictator like Putin.
It has been in the works for decades. It's very believable!
Boy, I hope every justice of SCOTUS is watching this. They have lost ALL credibility.
Sadly they dont care.
They never had any to begin with.
Oh yeah, because MSNBC said so 😂😂😂😂 so the one sided news media is upset that they aren’t getting what they want? So much for fairness lol no ones gives two shats about MSNBC, they will only post things that make Trump seem bad. They don’t post the truth. They don’t share or debate anything. You have to be as far left leaning as possible to be on there. So why would the Supreme Court judges whose job it is to be fair and unbiased be upset that the super far leaning media is upset with them. If it was the other way around and Fox was upset with them should they care? You people care about what you want. Not what the person actually deserves. Morons
They don't care, it's self preservation and power!

Any Red Hat scotus is a very bad joke...
I listened to most of the SCOTUS arguments and there were several times when I literally wanted to throw up like the vertigo mentioned. I've listened to other Alito speeches and he comes across as so insanely arrogant. When he said he didn't want to talk details it was obvious what he was trying to do. He wanted to make everything abstract (and appear so superior and smarter than everyone else). He was so transparent and did it so often that in my opinion he made a total fool of himself. When it ended I was pretty upset and kept turning over the question in my head, "How did these judges become so corrupt?" How did they loose the basic concept of right and wrong? How could they justifiy all their actions that have delayed and delayed the trials? How could they support such a corrupt individuyal as Trump? What are the points of stupid what-ifs when so much is at stake? If they grant blanket immunity to presidents I think it would be time to start a national debate to remove them all and start over.
Alito and Thomas are both arrogant beyond belief and their comments were so nakedly pro-Trump I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
Nowhere in the Constitution is there any mention of the concept of presidential immunity and their arguging that, because trump is facing criminal trials, they need to make up some method to help him avoid these consequences. the false equivalencies they deploy are equally flawed.
They didn't "become corrupt" before becoming SCOTUS.. MAGA new those MAGA appointed SCOTUS were already corrupt when appointing them, and knew they could buy them as protection. These SCOTUS CAN & SHOULD BE IMPEACHED.. WHY ARE THEY NOT BEING IMPEACHED??
Appointed by trump .
Moscow Mitch picked them.
Where's the President on this? Their corrupt and they need to be removed. Of course a big bonus is lingering in the air.
We the people need to get our congress to pass term limits for the justices. We have seen first hand what corrupted justices at the very highest courts look like. They can not continue to look over what the rules of law say to find things that fit their political views.
So other judges can be corrupted too. So everything Trump is saying is correct, this is a witch hunt.
There should be ten limits for all political offices
Unfortunately I live in a red state and they love Trump. They are disgusting 🤮.
AMEN..
What happened to “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW ?????? This is THE SUPREME COURT?????
Supreme corruption

Biden should be in prison for his crimes and Pelosi should be in prison for her insider trading
Whut happened to Justice is Blind? I notice they see who is the protagonist...
So the supreme court is acting as the authoritarian
As a European, I am used to government officials resigning over things like a small lie in their curriculum, or an extramarital affair or something. This immunity thing is absolutely out of this world. Where is America going??

Time for a Constitutional Amendment for changing the lifetime appointment to a term limit.
I think the supreme court made any excellant argument for their jobs to be term limited. Its obvious they should not be life time appointments.
I think it rather might be better for us if there was a better mechanism to remove them if corrupt; Thomas comes to mind first. No one should be unimpeaachable and Alito's speculations seem colored garish partiality.
Maybe they should be put on the ballot every presidential election to see whether they keep their job.

@@markbauch2600”haha the government now has all the power and can crush us all like ants, but take that libruls!” - that is you.
@@markbauch2600 Well played Mr Putin.
Why are they not being investigated?
Senator Whitehouse is the closest thing to 'action' right now
No one is above the law. Presidential Immunity is not in the Constitution. SCOTUS should have immediately rejected this case
It should be genuinely shocking that Clarence Thomas has not recused himself. But its Clarence Thomas so nothing is shocking about such behaviour when its from him.

Racist
@@dominickmilano4858look how far our institutions have fallen. You believe a judge who has conflicts should still be involved in the case. What has happened to this country😢😢😢
@@jimyocum9556 Racist? If I was a racist I'd be a Trump supporter.
Thick face
This court is just sickening
No ,you sinners are trying to crucify another sinnner.
We know their intentions
@@prettygirl53987keep your Superstition out of our lives
The President must have immunity for acts taken while in office and the reasons are obvious and numerous - Bragg, Smith, Willis, and James (all Democrats) are making this point for us now aren't they?
@@herballycorrectNobody has immunity to break the law. That's what Trump did, before he was president, after he lost the election. He can't get away with staging an attack against our nation's capital. 🙄 He can't get away with election interference. That's not democracy. That's not abiding by the laws of the constitution. That's political bias. We have checks and balances in America. We have a democracy , not a dictatorship.
Maybe Americans need to rethink their justice system altogether.
Agreed a sad day for Justice.
There needs to be term limits for SCOTUS. Alito and Thomas should have been gone by now!
Need Democratic majority in all 3 branches, then you have to get dems to vote principle over greed and that will never happen
I am not suprised at all,go back and look at the their judgements lately,it is horrifying,it seems like we are going backwards instead forward.
Nazism goes backward. That is what it does. This is Nazism and there is nothing anyone can do but stand back in horror and watch as it destroys everything around it until it destroys itself.
Lol....Sucks Tobe a progressive snowflake, doesn't it...
Not just backwards... But it's like basic common sense has been flipped over on its head... and NOW WE ARE ALL SUPPOSED TO KEEP OUR MOUTHS SHUT AND GO ALONG WITH IT!?! It's ONLY BEEN MADE POSSIBLE BECAUSE MAIN STREAM MEDIA GETS ON CAMERA SHOVING LIES DOWN PEOPLES THROATS! They have sooo many still brainwashed to believe in what they say... AS IF ITS TRUE!!! It's completely opposite and had I not turned my TV OFF AND RESEARCHED ON MY OWN, I would still be regurgitating their lies!! It's disgusting and THEY ALL NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE! Once you learn ALL THE MEDIA IS OWNED BY DEMOCRATS... THAT SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO MAKE ANYONE QUESTION WTH IS GOING ON WITH THESE LYING REPORTERS!!
Lifetime appointments should be removed. There needs to be checks and balances for all, including the Supreme Court!!!
I agree!!! Like why is she even invited? I didn't invite her to the after party that was a little late, but I did invite her to the wedding party. Either way, Barbara wasn't having any of it.
The not so Supreme Court at it again.
They should now be called “injustices” rather than justices. Injustice Thomas. Injustice Alito…
Nicole Wallace nailed it .. they, the conservative judges, feel persecuted. This is UNBELIEVABLE..!!
I think the not-so-supreme court is doing several things...
1. They are twisting themselves into knots to assist trump and STALL.
2. They are causing a delay such that some of trump's trials cannot/will not occur before the 2024 election.
3. By not handing down a decision before the prez election, they are rolling the dice to see which candidate wins.
4. If Biden wins, they will rule against immunity because they don't want anyone that is not trump to have immunity. They will TRY to pass this off as being non-partisan in an effort to regain some of the credibility they have lost (don't be fooled! It would be just a BS show, until the next R is elected).
5. If trump wins, only then will they grant prez immunity to forever protect their favored prez.
This tactic is a win-win for the scotus first and foremost, because unfortunately, that is ALL they care about first. Promoting/protecting/saving an R pres is secondary.
That's what I would do if I was a corrupt, immoral, unethical, biased, agenda-based, all-powerful body with seemingly unchecked power and lifetime appointments.
Self preservation first, protecting their preferred prez second, Country dead last.
Self preservation first, protecting their preferred prez second, Country dead last.
THE SINISTER6 BETTER GET USED TO CRITICISM BECAUSE THEY ARE IN FOR IT!!!
Yep, believe everything that you agree with and call BS on everything you don’t agree with. But whatever you do, ever agree with reality.
They r the ones who are soft on crime and criminals..... AKA Donald John Trump, the trader of r country
Your country needs Mr. Biden more than ever!
It's truly a shame.
Our Supreme Court has lost all credibility.
100%
We have three (3) legal folks who know their craft and are not easily fooled. 😄😵💫😔😄⚖️
It's no longer the people's it's been bought by trump
Thank God for THE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES 🙏🙏💕
So so shameful what this Supreme Court has done
What? Apply the law as per legislation precedent and without malice or favour - this is the attitude combined with the democrats corrupt use of our judicial system to wage lawfare on opponents what if the shoe was on the other foot would you be so enraged grow up
😂😂😂😂 you sound like a Karen please don't let yourself on fire over it
What does "let yourself on fire" mean?
Coming into these comment sections is alarming. What these "news" channels are pushing is straight propaganda, and you're all victims of it.
The Democrat cult speaketh lol
Soo, they did not find time for that 3 minutes discussion and decision ?
Must be a hard job.
The Supreme Court moved lightning fast when they needed to make sure Dubya won in 2000. Now in order to protect Trump they choose to move at a snails pace.
Im sure this is NOT what our forefathers had in mind.
It's not what the constitution says...it says that impeachment is the tool for Presidential wrong doing
I'm crying inside.
They also didn't have a direct democracy in mind.... And yet that's what we keep being told America is.
There's a process to deal with Presidential high crimes, and that is impeachment.
If presidents can be endlessly indicted after leaving office for actions while in office, then presidents can be threatened and black mailed, and THAT it's a far worse situation.
This country would be greatly compromised, and very quickly.
Listen to the oral arguments of this case, and you'll understand better.
The corruption that is inherently built into an economic system built on greed is finally putting the final nails in the coffin of capitalism.
High Anxiety and I feel like I’ve been kicked in the stomach. Dear God this country is in huge trouble
Nah.... we'll be fine.
You'll be ok 😊
Take a knee and drink water, drama queen. Trump will be your president soon and the country will be in good hands. He might even end a few wars.
😂😂😂
Yes it’s in a disasterous mess - thanks to Biden who is as corrupt ad the day is long. And MSNBC coverd for him and all Democrats.
That's how they need you to feel. They can't stay in power if you don't vote blue no matter who.
I hope these pro Trump justices will face justice one day.
These are sensible justices
Supreme Court needs to be choose to by unbiased. This court do not have the authority to decide in this case.
Oh my word. Those judges need to be indicted and removed from the bench. There is no way they are for America the people or the constitution. It is absolutely criminal.
You do realize that people can only be indicted for crimes that actually exist.
The word you are searching for is impeached and I agree.
They have life appointments!
@@susanboltonbriggs2843and that makes us as a country totally lost and democracy is gone and criminals run us
@janethertzer9646 yes the Supreme Court Justice have lifetime appointed career! Or if they choose to retire
Can you please start SHOUTING the Supreme Court word CORRUPTION CORRUPTION CORRUPTION
Absolutely terrible!!
Thomas should be recused from this! He is completely shameless and compromised!!!
Ari said it the best, “seeing multiple justices out themselves as insurrection and sedition minimizers”.
Best 1-line summary, IMHO
So then.... You eat all the MSNBC programming. Smh...
Reality - There was NO insurrection otherwise he'd have been indicted on that charge instead of trying to convict and punish him without a trial
@@stephenm8898 , Ummmm, (🤔🤭🤭🤭!!!) The true reality, that’s where you are wrong sweetheart!! There was an insurrection and yes Donnie Trumpy was behind it all. Should he have immunity and run for a second term as President? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! Does he deserve to be in prison? ABSOLUTELY!!
After Dobbs decision we realized the scotus right wing were liars. Now we know beyond any shadow of doubt, that they are totally corrupt. How will we deal with them?
They never should have even listened to the case... there is no logical argument for giving anyone absolute immunity...
Obama bombed children
This is Kavanaugh's thing. That's how he got into the Supreme court. And true to the implied bribery he's keeping his end of the deal.
They will never give anyone absolute immunity, they will give SOME immunity,
to prevent frivolous law suits against political enemies.
The argument is that the president can't be looking over his shoulder when acting as the chief executive of the country and constantly worried that the moment he leaves office he has to worry about a partisan zealot whom didn't like his policies, finding something to tie him up in court for years. The prosecution IS the punishment.
These Justices are a Joke!!
After all we've been thru with DozinDon, NOTHING should shock or surprise you folks!!! Keep up tje good work✌️
The argument Alito pushed forward was idiotic and insane.
That's because he's the MOST Unqualified incel on the bench. Then Gorsich then Kavanagh the drunk
Alito is idiotic and insane.
Insanity 😢
He's desperate to find the justification for the decision those fascist "Justices" have already made...
The false equivalencies of a drone stike done on terrorists from another country being the same as organizing an attempt to steal the election was disgusting.
The framers fought against this… every single foundational document speaks on how problematic giving one person absolute immunity and power (THE LITERAL MONARCHY) is. This is exactly why we broke from England. And here SCOTUS is after 200 years even LISTENING TO THIS CASE?? Absolutely ridiculous
Just make Trump the king.
The person the framers were warning us about is Biden - it's the perfect example they spoke of, of tyrannical forces taking hold of government and trying to use their power to destroy their political opponents.
And you are so right everyone who fought for this country to have a democracy don't it for nothing and that is so sad
@@davidwelsh8026you’re cult doesn’t want to lose your current monarchy. That what this entire thing is about. Trump is going to win, as most people see right through the political persecution. I could elaborate more truth in detail about your kind, but I would probably get booted of this platform, as they have already colluded with the current monarchy.
Voting Democrat in a constitutional Republic is ridiculous.
What do they have on these judges that they can be bought like this? Meanwhile, DJT complains about biased judges. What a joke!!!!
This is beyond scary. The Supreme Court is off the rails
Current scotus=self preservation first, protecting their preferred prez second, Country dead last. trump is just their current "tool" to use and dispense of, when he's no longer useful.
Ari got a white hair spot on his head over this news
Has anything good ever come out of a conservative administration ? No.
Justice Roberts should have Reined in all of the hypotheticals & focus on the Task at hand.
"The only thing necessary for evil to triumph, is that good men stand by and do nothing" - Edmund Burke
Which is precisely what they are doing.
Imagine political commentators who only report on one side of the fence calling Supreme Court Justices political hacks ... completely delusional lol
Revolting actually,... the Supreme Court, to be clear.
Anyone who finds this "genuinely shocking" hasn't been paying attention.
Not me. If this was Democrat he'd already be in jail
Right. They’ve obviously been on trump’s side the whole time. It makes me sick. But I’ve seen it all along, so why can’t everybody else?
Finally, an honest viewpoint
Trump was never impeached or charged with anything..😂😂 love the way these hosts have lost their heads..😂😂
@@bloopgoesdonald6045 Really?
These justices just showed you that there's no justce.
Seems to me that "THE" question is: did he do it as a "private citizen", or as an official act of the President of the USA?
If he was not acting in the official capacity of President, THERE IS NO IMMUNITY!
It is time for the Executive and a legislative majority take this battle to the courts and disempower them.
This SCOTUS can be removed if they act in bad faith. This seems to be just that.
By who? Have never ever seen that happen in my 58 years of life.
You mean if they rule against YOUR ideas of the laws and YOUR intepretation the United States Constitution?
We will not be holding our breath here, waiting for a majority of our House of Representatives to vote to impeach them. Those crackpots can't even hold on to a speaker longer than a few minutes, and they are really the problem
To date, only one Supreme Court Justice, Samuel Chase, has been impeached, and he was acquitted by the Senate in 1805. A second Supreme Court Justice, Abe Fortas, was forced to resign under threat of impeachment in 1969. With today’s political situation, the Republican held House is unlikely to impeach and there is no way there are the votes in the Senate to convict.
German - Swiss American here! SERIOUSLY US Supreme Court????What is wrong with you???? My Great Uncle died on a beach in Anzio, Italy! He and many other WWII soldiers must be rolling in their graves right now! He was a Staff Sgt. in the US Army! 🤔🤔🤔🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
My uncle died at Anzio Beach as well!
I’m second gen American and so disgusted with this nation, worst corrupt people on scotus in congress and low I q of citizenry
Just a horrible thing. My great grandmother would probably have stayed in Canada.
Fool
@@thesummerland6165 You have the "citizenry" close to correct...it may not be IQ level, it is likely the laziness and the lack of higher education of citizens.
No one is above the law. Especially judges
We all will be judged. That is the only thing that gives me some peace. Trumps supreme court out of control.
As a constitutional lawyer, other than in “failed states” or dictatorships, I have never seen a more partisan Court than the current US Supreme Court. The only way to fix this is to change the constitution to set term limits for judges as we have in Australia and remove the political system for the appointment of judges. There is no separation of powers if the judges are appointed based on their political affiliations or philosophies. Judges should be appointed on their legal acumen and experience not based on which political party they are registered to. Only then will you minimise, or avoid altogether, the bias towards either a right- or left-wing leaning Court.
These people are intent on fulfillment of the Seven Mountains Mandate, which has been their goal for decades - Thomas and Alito actually should be prosecuted, and Ginni Thomas for sure. We are not a monarchy, not even a ceremonial one - nobody has absolute immunity, and he was not doing his job when he committed crimes.
