Correct decision.
I’m not saying he should be prosecuted. Any prosecution of HIM for THAT is a gross abuse of power.
I’m saying that any immunity from normal prosecution for criminal acts committed in office ceases when the office ends, and Article I, section 3 clause 7 is perfectly clear about that.

Our FRiend Reno has a bad case of TDS and he belongs to that disgusting tribe of Zeepers. The two groups have so much overlap that they are essentially one and the same.
I guess he's too dim to realize the connection between the first impeachment over the Trump-Zelensky call and the Ukrainian-born “whistleblower”. I am certain that wanting to start the Russia Ukraine war was behind all of the Deep State's attacks on Trump because he refused to start the war.

What I am saying, and is not disputed by the facts, is that Obama had a teenage US citizen killed in a drone strike, that he watched, that had no criminal behavior linked to him. It was done on foreign soil, but Obama used military assets to kill a non-criminal minor. That’s murder, and by your thinking, he should be immediately arrested and tried for it.

“plotted to overturn the results”
Of course he did. It was a fraudulent election rife with election fraud

"You are absolutely correct. Not even the President is above the law, and that now clearly includes Joe Biden and Barak Obama." When you wonder why the left was able to take over everything and stomp all over the weakling GOP please take a look in a mirror and curse the weak suck, bottom boy you see there. You are not very bright.

I noticed the same thing. Another thing where a few of them danced around the edges: much like Biden (and most other banana republics), they seemed to be ok with using the force of government to remove political opponents.

He is if he owns the DOJ and enough judges, apparently. Those of us who love Trump think he's the cleanest president in our lifetimes, and that he's being victimized by lawfare. Agreed. It is a coordinated persecution by some very nefarious people. They want to choose the president rather than having a free and fair election.

Something tengentially related: the Lankford/McConnell/Schumer abomination of an 'immigration' bill had a clause in it that would have moved sole jurisdiction of all related issues to this same court.
Something to think about.

No. But under the Constitution, a President is first supposed to be impeached for an act in order to be criminally prosecuted for it.
Will the Supremes accept review?

You are wrong in too many ways to count There is no doubt that Trump is being persecuted. However, I will stand by my comments that the Supreme Court will affirm this decision should it hear this case; and, a president is not a king.

Supreme Court will vote 9-0 for no immunity. They cannot give a president a free pass to do anything including murder. It’s ridiculous. If it was more condensed to a specific thing maybe.

Do they appeal for an en banc hearing or does it go straight to SCOTUS? If I were trying to play out the clock, I would take the longest path to get there.

Just when I thought you might engage in civility and at the same time increased your vocabulary, you proved me wrong.
