President can officially enforce the US Flag code, Alito. Let's say, punishment commensurate to the office. So. Supermax.

I'm pretty sure that no part of the Flag Code involves felony charges, and making up imaginary "laws" can't possibly be an "official act".
@mcfate ya know, posts scroll off screen all by themselves.
The President is not currently restricted to legal precedent and the distinction of understanding/official is up to lower courts. Lots of time for Alito to cool it.
Sotomayor: "The President is now a king above the law.”
“Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.”
Well, nonsense is still nonsense even if it's scrolled off the screen.
Sotomayer is a bit hysterical herself, if you want my opinion.
I'll happily admit I'm mistaken the instant Seal Team 6 blows Trump's head off.
In actual fact, an order to the military to assassinate an American citizen running for President violates so many laws that I'd need a thread to list them.
And the military has a DUTY to refuse illegal orders, no matter from WHOM they emanate.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, why post ridiculous things for me to point out as being ridiculous?
