SUMMARY: Van Zandt County Commissioner Virgil Melton died during severe weather while returning home from his grandchild's baseball game, 20 miles east of Tyler. A tree fell on Melton's car, killing him and injuring his wife, who is now in ICU. County Judge Andy Reese described Melton as the “rock of the county” since he took office in 2007, helping the county recover from several tornadoes, the latest in 2019. Melton's death comes as Van Zandt County and Smith County, hard-hit by storms, are managing power outages and extensive damage. Plans to honor Melton will be arranged once his wife recovers.

Commissioner Virgil Melton and his wife were coming back from their grandkid's baseball game. The two barely crossed into Edom when a tree fell on their car. Melton was killed instantly. His wife is in the ICU.

Biden says Supreme Court ruling on immunity means ‘no limits’ on presidential actions

Published

www.youtube.com – FOX 4 Dallas-Fort Worth – 2024-07-01 21:22:31

SUMMARY: President Biden criticized the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling granting former President Trump and other presidents broad immunity from prosecution for official acts while in office. Biden argued that the decision dangerously removes legal constraints on presidential power. The Court's ruling provides no immunity for unofficial acts, but Federal prosecutors now must distinguish between official and unofficial conduct. Trump, who faces prosecution for attempts to overturn the 2020 election and his role in the January 6th insurrection, called the decision a victory for democracy. The Court's liberal justices dissented, warning it creates a law-free zone around the president, potentially impacting other ongoing cases against Trump.

Biden condemned the ruling, stating that the Supreme Court's decision on immunity means “there are virtually no limits” on a president's actions.
