The No Kings Act is in response to a Supreme Court ruling that immunizes presidents in various respects from criminal punishment. The bill reaffirms a basic principle that presidents are liable for their crimes.

You referenced something about deportations. That adds to the non sequitur nature of the comment. It is not a crime to "deport" people per se. I'm also not going to try to debate "who's worse" or "the same" or whatever. But I'd toss out there that Nixon resigned.

It is a crime to bomb civilians, FDR, Obama, Johnson, both Shrubs, and Biden. Reagan got away with Iran Contra. So did Shrub Sr. Nixon didn't face prosecution because Ford pardoned him. Many US presidents have been criminals. Biden is one too. Genocide is a crime against humanity. So as I stated earlier, y'all freaking out over the status fucking quo. Remember the "founders" of the US were criminals too. They committed genocide and enslaved people.
