Immunity ruling won’t grant presidents license to commit crime
The Supreme Court's 6 3 decision holds a former president is immune from prosecution for official acts during tenure but not for unofficial acts. The ruling clarifies immunity applies to core constitutional duties, with possible exceptions if future duties aren’t encroached or if acts aren’t official. It notes potential harmful use if fear of prosecution deters core duties.
