That only applies to criminal prosecution. You really think Biden is going to off a dozen or so House members?

No, because he’s a coward and an appeaser.

Btw, your cope that it has to be the President specifically doing the acts is disagreed with by Sonya Sotomayor in her dissent where she states outright that this decision makes political assassination legal.

But you’d know the implications better than a SC Justice who works with the fascist members of the Court, right?

So Biden can officially assassinate the entire Republican side and the supreme Court and because he was president when he ordered it, it is legal?

That’s the dissent’s warning.

I guess the surviving members of the Court can reopen the question!

Yes, exactly. “They were insurrectionists bent on overthrowing our government, and it was a tough, but necessary, decision to protect the nation, which is my duty as President.”

That claim isn’t even entirely untrue.

No. It’s new, and I haven’t seen the full transcript. I’m repeating what I’ve read in the news. Do you have a link so I can learn more?

I understand how the President could theoretically order an assassination then pardon. That was a good point I read in another thread.

Transcripts are posted after rulings.

Or you could just read one of the many, many, many articles quoting her dissent.

Or watch a video quoting her.
