Dem Rep. Lofgren Decries SCOTUS Immunity Decision, Claims Biden ‘Could Dispatch the Military to Take Out the Conservative Justices’
Breitbart ^ | 7/1/2024 | Jason Easley

Posted on 07/02/2024 8:19:42 AM PDT by Lazamataz

Lofgren: "He’s been very open about what he intends to do, and that’s retribution. He, himself, said last December he intends to terminate parts of the Constitution. He didn’t say which parts. Be didn’t say which parts but apparently, the Court is going to give him a wide range to terminate whatever he wants. You know, he summoned a mob to Washington knowing they were armed. He sent them to the Capitol to try to prevent the peaceful transfer of power. If that’s OK, we’ve got a problem in this country. And certainly, in the debate the other night, he would not commit to accepting the election results this November unless he won. So we’ve got a problem here. If he cannot be accountable to — any president, any president cannot be held accountable under the laws that exist — that’s a complete departure from our history. I guess, you know, theoretically, President Biden, acting within the scope of his official duties, could dispatch the military to take out the conservative justices on the Court, and he’d be immune. Think so?”

MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann indicated that the California Democrat was correct in her assertion, adding that the high court decision removes “an enormous check” on the president.

“All these things the congresswoman is saying could be done, which is … Joe Biden could go ahead and prosecute somebody like Donald Trump with no evidence — that’s OK. Could order somebody to be killed — that’s OK.

How is this not an arrestable offense, which -- in Georgia -- we call Terroristic Threats?

It shouldn’t, but it still amazes me that we elect such incredibly stupid, inflammatory people to Congress.

Andrew, read the opinion. Is dispatching the military in such a way an official presidential duty? What a bunch of morons.

If they haven’t committed crimes (real ones) that the Trump Administration will prosecute, then they don’t have anything to worry about.

Not to mention the military has to consider if it’s an illegal order.

The president has no immunity if he has committed an un constitutional act, such as using the military on US soil (Posse Comitatus Act).
He would be impeached and escorted to jail by US Marshalls.

“How is this not an arrestable offense”

Threatening /suggesting the murder of not one, but SIX, Supreme Court Justices ... I’m speechless.

The inflammatory rhetoric is the dog whistle of the left.

It’s amazing - NOT REALLY - that so many don’t know the meaning of the word - “OFFICIAL”....Does that idiot congresswoman and all the other pundits believe the Constitution calls for the acts they are imagining to happen under the ruling of the USSC yesterday...THOSE would not be OFFICIAL, folks.

Like someone said last night on TV - “stupid people say stupid things”. We’re going to have to remember that instead of getting frustrated over the ridiculous things we hear daily.

Of course, the dems will have an unending list of what a president COULD do under that ruling...anything to stir up the populace and they will be repeated over and over...

"You know, he summoned a mob to Washington knowing they were armed."

If Giuliani can be disbarred for "lying" about what he believed happened in the election, this fool should be removed from Congress for a demonstrable lie about J6. Feel free to add that whole sham "committee."

"With this decision, the president may do anything to anyone and there is no recourse!"

"So if Trump was elected, he could restart the Holocaust and re-enslave all the blacks?"

"Indeed, he could. And he could direct that all homosexuals be thrown off the roofs of high buildings!"

"Oh, my God! Trump has promised to re-enslave the blacks and throw LGBTQs off of roofs!"

(Sounds of newsroom in background...)

"In a breaking story, Donald Trump plans to re-enslave all blacks and throw LGBTQs off of roofs by executive order!"

It's crucial to listen to what the left says, in increasingly fascist and threatening ways, since they announce what they are doing when they accuse us of anything.

I'm terrified for the day they start accusing us of rounding up and genociding Americans.

She should be prosecuted for threatening Justices. Ugly old cow should be kicked out of Congress.
