No. It’s exactly as expected.
I thought the expectation was to get the case remanded back to Chunkin to determine if J6 was an official act under the presidency?

So the Supreme Court isn't going to make that determination now. Instead, it will send the case back to the lower courts for further proceedings, although it does offer some guidance.

It's not a "smack down"
The district court has to make the decision based on this ruling.
Since they did not, the USSC can't make the call, today. The case has to go back to the district court to make the determination.

Transforming the political process of impeachment into a necessary step in the enforcement of criminal law finds little support in the text of the Constitution or the structure of the Nation’s Government
Finally, hopefully this shuts that dumb argument down on here too.

the President may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for his official acts.
Agree 100%.
1st amendment seems to fall under that category.

Literally what happened

The indictment also contains various allegations regarding
Trump’s conduct in connection with the events of January 6 itself. The
alleged conduct largely consists of Trump’s communications in the
form of Tweets and a public address. The President possesses “extraordinary power to speak to his fellow citizens and on their behalf.”
Trump v. Hawaii, 585 U. S. 667, 701. So most of a President’s public
communications are likely to fall comfortably within the outer perimeter of his official responsibilities.

In the absence of anything damning (recordings, documentary proof, etc) that Trump was doing anything other than speaking to the folks at the rally, all of the actual evidence would indicate that he wanted the protesters to disperse and go home (per the Insurrection Act) would strip any argument saying otherwise.

What does the First Amendment have to do with anything?

That’s what they did.

Oh stop.
SCOTUS told them, you all did it wrong and did not talk to us to figure it out

Merchan about to sentence Trump to 5 years in prison. It’s coming

Good. Happy to see that clarified.

But later in the opinion, the court does weigh in on some aspects. "Trump is ... absolutely immune from prosecution for the alleged conduct involving his discussions with Justice Department officials."

The 2 charges related to obstruction of official proceeding got tossed last week.
What charges are left to judge against the "official" standard?
(and we haven't even touched the first amendment defense yet).
