Following the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity, the White House issued a brief reaction more than four hours later. The statement from the White House Counsel's Office emphasized President Biden's belief that nobody is above the law, highlighting it as a fundamental American principle and a cornerstone of the justice system.
The statement did not directly mention former President Donald Trump but alluded to his alleged attempts to undermine the justice system. The White House spokesman's remarks underscored the importance of having leaders like President Biden who uphold and respect the justice system rather than seek to dismantle it.
Shortly after the ruling was announced, the Biden campaign released a more detailed response, further elaborating on the significance of the decision and its implications for the rule of law in the country.
