My understanding is that immunity for official acts WOULD cover an airstrike on Trump, or a death squad assassination.
But that possibly the speech in front of the capital where he said “we’re going to go fight like hell to take our country back” is most likely NOT an official act? Maybe they could hold him accountable for that since it was NOT communication with one of his departments?
the ruling is basically “the courts get to decide what an ‘official act’ is and that ‘official acts’ can’t be used in court, eg courts get to decide without jury nor law what is legal or illegal for the president to do and open the door of barring whatever evidence they please from lower courts” aka, they created a loophole in the constitution the size of an ICBM that the courts can drive whatever they want through.

Interested in any clarification anyone can offer.
