Ritchie Torres Instagram – The Supreme Court went too far in granting the President absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts within his “conclusive and preclusive authority.”
Presumptive immunity would have been sufficient to protect the proper functioning of the Presidency without putting the President himself above the law.
The Roberts Court, as usual, chose to go farther than it needed to. So much for deciding cases on “the narrowest possible grounds” with an eye toward unanimity. | Posted on 01/Jul/2024 21:33:08
