The headline undersells it. He just declared that him and the attorney General have sole ability to interpret laws for the executive branch. That branch includes the law enforcement agencies that would arrest him for committing crimes. That means the FBI couldn't arrest him even if SCOTUS declared him to have done something illegal because him and the AG now interpret legal meaning for the FBI, not SCOTUS.

Companies are in power of the government through president Turnip. Sec fines companies (a paultry amount ) and those stupid rules are in the way. If Turnip can makes those pesky rules go away, the number can go up infinitely, any way possible. Rivaling companies can be cellar boxed into bankruptcy more effectively. Rich men get richer.
