I thought Trump was of the opinion that "official acts", which is apparently anything anyone does while employed by the government, cannot result in criminal prosecutions.

Or at least, that's what he claims for himself and ICE murderers.



Not sure about "ICE murderers", but Trump v. United States[1] only seems to cover presidents, and wikipedia even has a specific article for for it[2]

You saw JD Vance's press conference? A Yale educated lawyer, because that's what this asshole is, saying a federal agent has full immunity in the context of being investigated for murder.

I wonder what his opinion would be on what happens if a Federal agent shot Trump. But let's not pretend the current administration believes one word they're saying.
