One of the most radical ideas floated yet…
Far-left author Fran Lebowitz called on President Joe Biden to “dissolve” the U.S. Supreme Court in a final act before leaving the White House.
In an interview Saturday, Lebowitz railed against the high court, calling it “Trump’s harem” while blasting the presidential immunity ruling in the case involving the former president.
“It’s so disgraceful, this court, that it shouldn’t even be allowed to be called the Supreme Court,” she said. “It isn’t. It’s an insult to Motown to call it the Supreme Court. It’s not even a court… basically, it’s a harem. It’s Trump’s harem.
“When they passed that law, that ruling, where they said ‘you’re not the president, you’re the king,’ which is what that ruling is, you can do whatever you want, you can never be held responsible, I thought, ‘You know, Biden is still the president. No one seems to notice,'” she said. “But I think Biden should dissolve the Supreme Court.”
Maher pushed back, “dissolve the Supreme Court? Come on.”
“I’m the president, I’m the king now, like you said, and go home,'” Lebowitz replied.
“Okay. Good to see you’re centrist,” Maher retorted sarcastically before changing the topic.
Watch:
In a landmark decision, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that presidents are entitled to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts conducted while in office. However, the ruling clarifies that this immunity does not extend to unofficial acts.
Lebowitz, 73, who is best known for her appearances on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” has a history of making extreme and radical statements against Trump.
In 2019, she suggested on “Real Time” that impeachment wasn’t enough to discipline Trump.
“Certainly, he deserves to be impeached. I mean, impeachment is just the beginning of what he deserves. Not even scratching the surface of what he deserves,” Lebowitz said. “Whenever I think about this and what he really deserves, I think, ‘We should turn him over to the Saudis, you know, his buddies. The same Saudis who got rid of that reporter, you know. Maybe they can do the same for him.'”
Her remark was in reference to the 2018 murder of Washington Post writer Jamal Khashoggi, who is believed to have been tortured and dismembered with a bone saw, purportedly under the orders of the Saudi government.
After facing widespread backlash for the disturbing comments she apologized.
