My view of where the Supreme Court lines up on a spectrum of presidential immunity in Trump v. United States:
~ no immunity~
Sotomayor, J.
Jackson, J.
Kagan, J.
Barrett, J.
Roberts, C.J. *key vote*
Kavanaugh, J.
Gorsuch, J.
Thomas, J.
Alito, J.
~ absolute immunity~

In what scenario is trying to overturn an election you lost an official act?
3/3
Ain't no rules that say a dog can't play basketball. Similarly, ain't no rules that say an attorney can't question the judges. But I'm confident they won't answer the questions.
Somebody should ask Alito what happens under his theory of immunity if Biden has him kidnapped, forges a letter of retirement, disappears him to Guantanamo Bay, and then appoints a new judge in his place. Is Biden immune from prosecution?
