There is a possibility they may see some opportunity for some immunity for some president ial decisions. If they decide it that way, it may have to go back down to the District Court which could cause further delay. I appreciate you not being sidetracked by somebody who apparently wants to scream louder than anybody else. Catherine, the lower courts have been unanimous that trump cannot claim immunity.

The campaign reported that they had raised nearly 6 million over a fiveday period leading up to this weeks event. There has already been a victory for him in this. My suspicion is the Biden White House is saying we want him to be held to some level of responsibility for actions that he took while in office but not as the president of the United States. But on the other hand he also like the fact that they are out there able to campaign whether as an explicitly politic ....
