petersuber on Nostr: The #SCOTUS search for a general rule on when presidents do and don't have immunity ...
The #SCOTUS search for a general rule on when presidents do and don't have immunity for their criminal acts is what #conservatives used to call #JudicialActivism. The older practice was to decide whether the specific acts charged violated the law, and "not reach" the question whether other, similar acts might also violate the law.
