Supreme Court's Immunity Ruling Shields Presidential Actions from Prosecution

The decision grants presidents sweeping protections for official acts, raising concerns about unchecked executive power.

  • The ruling provides absolute immunity for core constitutional powers and presumptive immunity for other official acts.
  • Critics argue the decision creates a 'law-free zone' around the presidency, undermining the rule of law.
  • Legal analysts believe the ruling will not affect Trump's existing criminal cases in New York and Georgia.
  • The decision adds to the Supreme Court's trend of increasing its own power while limiting federal agencies.
  • Opponents warn that the ruling could enable future presidents to abuse power without legal consequences.
