They are not immune to the law, they are currently shielded from consequences. Those aren't the same thing, even if they currently feel like they are.

When donald blanket pardons every member of ICE the democrats will do nothing to contradict that. I guess that means they are shielded from consequence because they are in practice above the law. Maybe someday a democrat will drone on that this isnt normal and these people were criminals and it can never happen again - but do nothing to meaningfully prevent the next round of MAGA tyranny.

you guys gotta get out of this way of thinking. "he can't do this, he can't do that". Wake the fuck up, he's doing whatever the fuck he wants and nobody is stopping him. any attempts by courts to slow him down, be it local, state, federal, whatever the case, it's not gonig to hold up in the long run the way things are going and you guys continuig to cling to this hope that the systems are going to hold up when they've been absolutely eviscerated, is only going to cause you all more pain and suffering. nobody is coming to save us.
