SCOTUS Trump Immunity Ruling May Shield Barack Obama-llllllllllll

Legal experts are warning that President Donald Trump may find it difficult to prosecute former President Barack Obama after accusing him of treason, following the Supreme Court’s immunity judgment last year.

In Trump v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled that a president’s immunity from criminal prosecution applies to all “official acts.”

The accusations came as Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s director of national intelligence, alleged that Obama and his senior officials “manufactured and politicized intelligence to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Trump” after Trump won the 2016 election.

Gabbard stated that she will be submitting a “criminal referral” to the DOJ and FBI.

“The evidence that we have found and have released directly point to President Obama leading the manufacturing of this intelligence assessment,” Gabbard said.

Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett spoke to anchor Sean Hannity on Wednesday night alongside Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, where they discussed the fake Trump-Russia hoax.

“John Brennan. John Brennan, when he testified in front of the Congress, Chairman Gowdy, asked a series of questions. I think he was not square with the Congress, specifically about the dossier. I went back and read some of that transcript. There was a clip played earlier today on your fine network. I think John Brennan misled Congress, which you’re not supposed to do. Now, again, statute of limitations, everything else, we’ll have to see, but I so appreciate what Tulsi has done and the work that Pam is now putting together to go after these guys and get to the truth,” Jordan declared.

“If the ongoing conspiracy is, for example, the raid on Mar-a-Lago and events thereafter, that’s when the statute of limitations begins to count right there. So that’s not an obstacle. But, you know, Barack Obama should be thanking Donald Trump. Why? Because he obtained from the U.S. Supreme Court the very kind of immunity that will protect Barack Obama,” Jarret said.

Gabbard declassified a previously unreleased 2020 report prepared by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

The report, dated September 18, 2020, stemmed from an investigation initiated by then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., chaired the committee at the time of the report’s release.
