The U.S. Supreme Court is facing several landmark cases while their approval ratings remain at a record low. Professor of law Stephen Vladek joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss the cases attracting attention - from the trials awaiting Donald Trump to a vital reproductive rights decision - and whether we are witnessing a constitutional crisis in the nation's highest court.

@ConstitutionalAmerican 5 ай бұрын

@@jeeveekaa5880 If the Supreme Court says Trump is immune, then every president will now be immune. We can potentially have these insurrections, anytime a president chooses to exercise this option. They will have 3 hours to allow people to attack the capital police and destroy property. After that, by precedent of Trump, they must call off the attacks but can say that they “love” them. And still not be outside the Supreme Courts ruling. I was being a bit facetious. I doubt that the Supreme Court will allow presidents to legally act like Trump did and not be prosecuted. But it would allow all future presidents to behave like Trump and not be arrested. I really doubt the Supreme Court will allow our country to become a 3rd world nation. They will opt for the “peaceful transition of power” that we always have had. And Trump will not be found immune. The SC may want Trump to be immune, but if they allow it, this is the new USA, every president can do what Trump did or possibly worse. Immune is immune. The SC will never allow a King as president. They want to be the top dogs. It would go against their nature to put someone above them. But if by some wild hair, they do, I have my passport updated and will find a quieter democracy some other place that is cheaper to live. This place will no longer be safe.

Another web site says that the obstruction statute has two parts, one that lists things like destruction or hiding evidence and documents, tangible items. But the second section begins with the word "or" and then lists more general disruption or interference with official actions and meetings, basically anything, even physical disturbance or obstruction. If that is the case the broader interpretation should apply since by putting the word "or" in it means either section applies by itself. Instead of saying "and" where both sections must apply on any charge.
