Democrat floats theory Biden could dispatch military to 'take out' conservative justices under immunity ruling

[Guno צְבִי]

A California lawmaker questioned if President Biden could send in the military to "take out" conservative Supreme Court justices and be immune from punishment in light of Monday's presidential immunity decision.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., floated the theory as a hypothetical scenario while on MSNBC reacting to the Supreme Court decision handed down in Trump v. United States.

"I guess, you know, theoretically, President Biden, acting within the scope of his official duties, could dispatch the military to take out the conservative justices on the court, and he’d be immune," she continued, posing the question to Andrew Weissmann, MSNBC legal analyst and former top prosecutor in the Mueller investigation.

Joe Biden is a good man and a law abiding citizen. Even though he could do these things he will not.

Can you say the same for the other guy?
