Pres. Immunity is Old Law – And No, POTUS Can’t Whack Citizens with Navy SEALs | Guest: B. Tolman
Manage episode 430766066 series 3274659
Critics of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision clarifying presidential immunity are making outrageous claims, such as that a president can go much further than merely jailing critics of climate policy, as RFK Jr. famously suggested; now, hysterical partisans claim that the court just authorized POTUS to vaporize political enemies with the Navy Seals - at will. Brett Tolman, former U.S. Attorney, joins Jacki to debunk this brazenly false assertion. Tolman explains that Presidential Immunity is a long-established legal doctrine that has served us well for years - regardless of what non-lawyer commentators and even some court jesters have claimed. Tolman comments on the opinion of former S.D.N.Y. federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy that the U.S. Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity could end 80% of the political lawfare.
