In this episode of the Triple P podcast, hosts Greg and Newell dive into the recent Supreme Court ruling that effectively shields sitting presidents from prosecution for actions that could be considered official acts. They express concerns about the potential abuse of power and how this decision could place the president above the law. The conversation explores the case of Donald Trump, who, despite being convicted on 34 felony counts, might avoid sentencing due to this ruling. They discuss the influence of wealth and status on the application of laws and how this ruling contradicts the principle that no one is above the law in America.

Newell shares a personal anecdote from his time as mayor, highlighting parallels between local politicians attempting to exempt themselves from city ordinances and the current situation. The discussion also touches on Trump's claims during a recent debate about his ability to resolve international incidents quickly if re-elected, with Newell questioning the validity of these statements. They consider the long-term impacts of the court's decision, including the effects of court packing and how dissenting opinions today might lead to future changes in legal interpretations. Drawing comparisons to past issues like racial segregation, they note how minority opinions eventually became the law of the land.

The episode concludes with Greg and Newell encouraging listeners to be active citizens and to thoughtfully consider these complex political and legal issues, emphasizing the importance of staying informed and engaged in the democratic process.
