@Maude Of course. He should have recused, but he's a thug.

Kavanaugh: Congress has to criminalize actions specifically to the Pres. to speak clearly on this matter.
Dreeben: That's not necessary to give Pres protection.

Ohhhh Dreeban:
There is no 'immunity' in the Constitution unless it is created in this court.

Dreeben: If there's serious const. question, the courts will construe the law to not apply it against the president. The public authority exception is read into fed law, so if the Pres. took life abroad (killed a terrorist), this defense would protect such action.

Justice Jackson: Why should the President be immune from criminal prosecution for official acts for not following the law?
Sauer: He is required but the remedy is the question.
Jackson: Others of authority make decisions w/ same risk, so what's the diff? They follow the law.

@Pat_Walrond Yes. he should not be speaking on a case this important. Pure ego. Others on his team should have spoken.

Justice Kagan says the framers could have created complete immunity. They didn't and they were acting against a monarch who had complete immunity. Boom.
