It is clear that the Supreme Court's conservative majority betrayed the American people with their immunity ruling. The SCOTUS has in effect staged the overthrow of our democracy. I honestly don't know if America as we have known it will survive.
The evidence in the case of Donald Trump illegally seeking to cling to power after losing the 2020 election would have been sufficient to convict him, had his 2024 win not made it impossible for the prosecution to continue, Jack Smith, the special counsel, said in a final report.
Special Counsel Report Says Trump Would Have Been Convicted in Election Case
The report, which said the special counsel’s office stood “fully behind” the merits of the prosecution, amounted to an extraordinary rebuke of the president-elect.
