Wait. Does the #supremecourt ruling on #Immunity come into effect immediately?

If so, shouldn't the #Republicans and #Trump be worried that Biden now has carte blanche to, say, throw the SOBs in jail??

There's a lotta months that #Biden now has with this newly granted power.

@Shivadam No, because they knew damn well that he's too weak to use the power.

@Shivadam The speech he just gave showed how weak and ineffectual he is.

@LouisIngenthron You're not serious. Obviously, I mean it doesn't matter how physically or mentally weak he is, he now has unlimited power, which his team can initiate, and he can put into effect.

@Shivadam I didn't mean physically or mentally weak. I meant politically weak.

His team can't operate without his say-so, and he just said on national TV that he won't give it. His team is moot.

@LouisIngenthron And, since #Biden now has full #immunity, if his team were to convince him to take strong (maybe even illegal) action now, HE alone could effect that action, without penalty! This #SupremeCourt ruling may backfire.

#Biden now has the power to change the Court, too, without regard to what is legal.

@Shivadam That's pure fantasy.

He's already said he's not going to do it and there's nothing to indicate that anyone in his team feels differently.

@LouisIngenthron The stakes are high. Let's see how this unfolds. Neither you or I know at this point. This is truly uncharted territory. On that, I am sure we agree.
