Based on the screenshot you shared, it seems that what is covered is deciding whether or not to prosecute crimes that have been committed. Choosing to have someone prosecuted when they haven't truly committed a crime, especially when you know they haven't committed a crime, doesn't seem to be covered in the #SCOTUS ruling, at least based on what you've shared here.
> I think that's pretty fucking scary
Why? This should only be scary if you're worried about certain criminals being prosecuted. Why shouldn't certain people who have committed crimes be punished if #POTUS wants them to be?
> If you think absolute immunity for even malicious prosecution is fine and dandy
I don't, which is why as of yet I don't have a problem with this ruling. Malicious prosecution isn't included in the ruling, only prosecution in pursuit of making sure that the law is being followed is protected in the #SCOTUS ruling.
