(6,910 posts)It is an outrage that such an irresponsible concept as "total executive immunity" (in any iteration of subject of coverage) is even entertained by anyone, but especially those on the USSC. Those justices who vote to legitimize such a position have signed their own notice of impeachment and an eternal curse from mankind's bleak future. Those that consciously support such a proposition simply want to dissolve the government and establish a dictatorship.
There's no middle ground here. Should this idea stand, the supreme court and the congress will be powerless and pointless except to pull the scab off human rights, breed unrest onto the streets where terror patrols everyone's door and rubber-stamp brutal lawlessness from the executive and military. All one needs to do is look onto Central and South America's social and economic horror shows to peruse the future, the template, of such a decision on the US. There is no place in hell black enough to hide those who support this retreat into madness nor any appropriate response except universal and perpetual condemnation and resistance.
