Former President Barack Obama may have made a huge mistake. He probably thinks the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision will protect him from criminal charges. But Rudy Giuliani just pointed out a major flaw in Obama’s thinking.
The Supreme Court ruled that presidents have immunity for official acts while in office. This decision helped President Trump fight his legal battles. Obama likely believes this same protection covers him for anything he did as president.
Here’s the problem Obama didn’t consider. Presidential immunity only covers you while you’re actually president. It doesn’t protect you for the rest of your life after you leave office.
Giuliani explained that Obama left office on January 20, 2017. Any actions Obama took after that date to help the Russia collusion hoax would not be covered by immunity. If Obama assisted in pushing the fake Russia narrative into 2017 and 2018, he could face serious legal trouble.
The Russia investigation didn’t end when Obama left the White House. It continued for years under the deep state operatives Obama left behind. If Obama was secretly helping coordinate this witch hunt against President Trump, he broke the law as a private citizen.
This means Obama could be indicted for his role in the greatest political scandal in American history. The man who weaponized the FBI and intelligence agencies against his political opponents may finally face justice. His presidential immunity won’t save him from crimes committed after he left office.
The American people deserve to know the full truth about Obama’s role in spying on Trump. We need real investigations into how Obama’s team tried to destroy an incoming president. If Obama thought he was untouchable, he was dead wrong.
Justice delayed is not justice denied. Obama’s time may finally be up. The same legal principles that were supposed to protect Trump might end up destroying the man who started this whole mess.
