The Supreme Court’s ruling on Donald Trump’s presidential immunity case will have an immediate impact on the future of the January 6th election interference case. This comes while the Court suffers some of its lowest public support, with some now seeing it as partisan and lacking oversight. Retired Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss the state of the Court.

Yes, guns in the 2nd Amendment is about Militias. It says Militia. And that was because we didn't have a standing army for the country.

Yeah, it was called the Continental Army. The militia was a sop to the Jefferson Republicans and the basic issue behind that was slavery.

@snowrose101 Месяц назад

@thethirdman225 Lol! You're about to declare your freedom from a tyrannical king, and you think creating a militia right then would be about slavery? Virginia offered slaves their freedom if they'd fight for the British, but the one to 2,000 that went over weren't the majority of the king's 50,000 or so British forces.

@thethirdman225 Месяц назад

@@snowrose101 Before you ‘Lol’ you might want to consider that I didn’t just say that for laughs. Furthermore, it had nothing to do with a ‘tyrannical king’ (George III was misguided but far from mad or tyrannical*) and everything to do with forming a union. If you can separate yourself from the mythical version of the formation of the United States, you will realise that there were factional interests to be served and in order to get those factions to align, certain conditions had to be met. I’m happy to educate you but it’s far better that you look it up for yourself. Who were the major players? What were the major issues? What was the timing? How was the impasse resolved? Remember that the Declaration of Independence was in 1776 and the Second Amendment was in 1791. So your ‘about to declare independence’ comment is anachronistic, at best. They had already declared independence 15 years beforehand. *Most Americans don’t know what this word means and never consider it from a historical perspective.

@retroguy9494 Месяц назад

Yes, we DID have a standing army. A PROFESSIONAL army. The intent of the Second Amendment was only twofold. 1) To protect ourselves and our government in the event of an attempted takeover by our own army (a coup). 2) To aid in the event of an invading foreign foe. Basically, it backed up the army. You really should read the Federalist Papers, specifically the two which deal with the Second Amendment. You should also read some of the writings of the framers which survive. They were so afraid of the citizen militias turning into a professional army that the Federalist Papers go into detail about how often the militia should meet, train, etc. That is what was meant by 'well regulated.'

justice breyer is how i think majority of the judges should be.. the constitution is written to be 'abstract' but with a notion that 'we the people' acts with no malice or bad intention but also not disregarding that there are those that acts with bad intentions.. it's written in a way with an understanding that a true or 100% democracy has negative comsequences also.. we cannot ignore that a president (former or sitting) has some sort of presidential immunity or protection from being criminally liable.. absolute immunity is a whole different thing that any reasonable person would immediately conclude it doesn't or shouldn't exist in a democracy..

Mr. Trump, this question was already decided/answered by the American people when they wrote the declaration of independence. We the people decided we did not want a King and that ALL people were created equally. Sadly the modern GOP does not believe all people were created equally, that minorities and women should have equal rights and equal justice under the law. The GOP believes might makes right and the rich are better than everyone else and should be treated differently, that is the rules don't apply to the rich. What better example of how out of step the modern GOP is than this example of treating Trump as if he were a God or a King. Mr. Trump you are not immune, justice is coming and we will not forget your crimes and your many enablers.

In Federalist #57 Madison argued that the legislature “can make no law which will not have its full operation on themselves and their friends as well as the great mass of society. This has always been deemed one of the strongest bonds by which human policy can connect the rulers and the people together. It creates that communion of interest and sympathy of sentiment of which few governments have furnished examples, but without which every government degenerates into tyranny. “
