Justice Clarence Thomas's concurring opinion in the Trump v. US immunity case has significantly influenced Judge Cannon's recent ruling on July 15, 2024. In the case, Justice Thomas questioned the constitutionality of the special counsel's appointment, suggesting that it was unlawful. Judge Cannon's decision, which cites Thomas's concurrence at least three times, ruled that Jack Smith's appointment as special counsel was unconstitutional. This ruling effectively gives presidents almost unfettered license in matters of immunity.
