There’s no “if” about it. They absolutely are.
When the highest legal council in the land doesn’t know if an immoral act is illegal……. Sad😢
We as the American public need to vote for Biden. We need to make sure Trump does not get back in the White House. I’m getting the feeling that the court system is full of corrupt people.
Even "entertaining" these questions, shows what a joke the "Supreme" Court is. The answer to all of these questions, is NOOOOOOOOOO!! PERIOD! FULL STOP! There are no exceptions!!!

One would think there would be no exceptions under law true. But with a stacked deck of hand picked cronies posing as judges put into those chambers by the very person wishing to overthrow it and all of democracy & destroy the constitution -hypothetically- does it really inspire anyone to support a system so corrupt and clearly fractured. I'm most curious as to Whatever happened to "together we stand / divided we fall"

The Christians want things to get so bad that Jesus will have no choice but to come back.
Oddly their only task is to rule on the case in front of them. They are not concocting new legislation to cover future scenarios. NOT their job.
Time for a complete NEW Supreme Court. Total clean out! Send this lot of shockers to the unemployment queue.
The lawyers who argue such absurd propositions should be disbared because they didn't even learn the law.

Sadly they didn't really discuss the direct issue of Jan 6th. Lawrence O'Donnell, had Laurence tribe, law professor, Weissman & Neil Katel. They explained there is a possible chance for judge Roberts to make the ultimate decision. That he can do that if he chose to. That would be the proper thing to do sit in precedent for the future. The Supreme Court truly needs to be so SERIOUS play making this decision! It's really sad that they took so long to address this and may push it back down to a lower court. Yes, another delay. It's so VERY WRONG! TY Rachel & ALL host, you are all phenomenal you presented after hearing, I did tune into. Thanks TRULY!

"Well," said one reporter to another as they left the supreme court chamber, sometime after noon on Thursday... "Looks like we're getting a King."
Unbelievable, these cowards must step up and do what is right
It seems to me, that the lawyer with no voice, might persuade the SCOTUS. He might be smarter than them. In that case they, or some of them, should be replaced, as feeble-minded.
July 4, 1776 we declared our freedom from monarchy. Who could ever imagine that in 2024 we risk getting that back.
Their argument that it's too crazy of a hypothetical belies the question of why are you seeking immunity if it's hypothetical and unlikely? He did attempt a coup. It's not hypothetical.

No attempted coup. Reality -- Trump won 2020. The Jan 6 protest rally was infiltrated and hijacked by anti-Trump people, including FBI operatives, who were at the Capitol to help foment a riot,.. a riot which would then be used in an 'Attack on the Capitol' disinformation campaign. It was a set-up, a trap laid. This is the evil we face.
