  • You’re absolutely correct. This is the part that has been left out of every news article I’ve read, and is undoubtedly the most concerning:

    And some Presidential conduct-for example, speaking to and on behalf of the American people, see Trump v. Hawaii, 585 U. S. 667, 701 (2018) - certainly can qualify as official even when not obviously connected to a particular constitutional or statutory provision. For those reasons, the immunity we have recognized extends to the “outer perimeter” of the President’s official responsibilities, covering actions so long as they are “not manifestly or palpably beyond [his] authority.”

    So it’s not just acts committed by the President, but also ordered by the President.

    It’s also vague enough that charges can get bounced around lower courts indefinitely.

    Thank you again for the link. I didn’t see it when I first searched.

    As I said, it was a year and a half when he ended Title 42. It was two and a half years due to Federal court. Your initial claim was three and a half years. Is it that hard to admit that you’re wrong?

    I’m done with your repeated misrepresentation of my argument, and childish suggestions that “he can just do what he wants” and tell the judge to “fuck off.”

    Good night.

    Read the thread you’re so confident in condemning.

    I cited my statements while your friend here repeatedly made false claims.

    The Mexican Border bill you’re referring to is an Executive Order, not congressional legislation. Trump’s border Executive Order was the Muslim ban. Neither of which required congressional approval, and therefore are directly equatable.

    Maybe you two should get a place together in misinformation land.
