Noting the conservative-leaning court appears to be giving whomever is president unfettered authority to do anything they want as long as it is done under the vague imprimatur of an "official act," Sidney Blumenthal jokingly suggested Biden start by arresting members of the opposing party.
Speaking in Biden's voice he wrote, "I have read the court’s majority opinion that an official act of the president is “presumptively” immune from all prosecution during and after his term, and that the president’s motive cannot be questioned," and then added he was taking "the court’s opinion to heart. I am not one to defy the court. I am, as many have remarked, an institutionalist."
With that so stated, Blumenthal — again speaking for Biden — wrote, "I regret to inform you that Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has been arrested. A number of other members of the House Republican Conference have been taken into custody. Jim Jordan, unfortunately, attempted to resist arrest. After wrestling with an FBI agent, he met a tragic fate," for which he added, "we can all give thanks to the Supreme Court."
In that vein, he added, "I further regret to inform you that 10 members of the Republican Senate caucus have been arrested. Again, unfortunately, Josh Hawley attempted to run away and was wounded in the leg. The incident was entirely his fault: if only he had submitted to the authorities. Lindsey Graham was arrested in his office. He has renounced all of his former allegiances, and I have issued him a pardon—a conditional pardon. There will be no more obstruction from filibusters. Again, we can thank the court."
Blumenthal continued that Biden should have Chief Justice John Roberts "for his treasonous comment that the president is doing something illegal, based on his very own opinion," before joking that Biden would be expanding the court and adding he would wait to prosecute Roberts "after the new 26 members take their posts."
"f any reader of this column can show where anything described here would be illegal under the Supreme Court immunity ruling, please turn yourself into the nearest FBI bureau to avoid yet another tragic result," he continued before dryly pointing out: "what goes around comes around."
