An open letter to the U.S. Supreme Court

Your decision to hear the Presidential Immunity case is terrible and dangerous.

I’m writing to express my horror and disappointment in your decision to first delay, then hear Donald Trump’s absurd Presidential immunity case. It’s a major disappointment for people who believe justice can be done and presidents are not above the law. This is not about politics. This is not about using a criminal prosecution in an unfair way against a candidate for office. This is about seeking justice and accountability, the core functions of our criminal justice system. This isn't a hard case. The substantive argument Trump makes—that presidents are entitled to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for anything they do in office and more specifically, for trying to steal an election—is a loser and everyone knows it. If it’s not, to quote Joyce Vance, “our claim to be a democracy is no longer viable.” But it’s becoming increasingly apparent that several justices on your court don’t care. If it is true—and it is—that “justice delayed is justice denied,” then this Supreme Court has denied U.S. citizens justice in the most important court case we’ve ever seen. We will remember it. So will history.
