Welcome to our world. Most suspension bolts go through a metal sleeve inside a rubber bushing, and they get rusted to those sleeves. Even if you force the bolt to turn, it will just rip the sleeve from the rubber, then that sleeve will spin. Grr!
If you can get on the ends of that sleeve with a sawzall, you can cut through both ends of the bolt so you can pull the arm or link out. Then you can use a hydraulic press to push the bolt out of the sleeve. If you're trying to get this apart because the rubber bushing needs to be replaced, you can burn the rubber out with a torch. That can give you more access but that won't release the bolt from the sleeve. When it's still hot, that's a good time to bang on the bolt and try to hammer it out.
