Albaby: Why? The President has no constitutional authority to command Seal Team 6 to assassinate a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil. It's completely forbidden by the 4th and 5th Amendments.
No court would grant him immunity for this. I don't understand why you think any ever would....
I REALLY want to hear Sotomayor clarify what she meant by her Seal Team 6 scenario. Was it just hyperbole for rhetorical effect, or does she really think that scenario is possible and could satisfy the SCOTUS decision granting full Presidential immunity "for official acts".
There are plenty of "legal experts" still saying that the Seal Team 6 scenario is a real possibility, some of whom surely must have given this at least as much thought as our resident legal expert Albaby!
