Attorney General Todd Rokita has issued a statement regarding the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision granting former President Donald Trump immunity for official actions taken while in office.
“As Indiana’s attorney general, I was proud to advocate in an 18-state brief for the result we saw today — the US Supreme Court’s decision that former presidents such as Donald Trump have immunity for official acts taken while in office,” said Rokita.
He further commented on the implications of the ruling: “The Left has made an art form out of weaponizing our judicial institutions against their political adversaries, but no matter which side does it, that kind of manipulation is wrong and dangerous to our republic. With this ruling, the court took strong and necessary action to protect ALL American presidents from partisan political prosecutions pertaining to conduct involving their official actions.”
