No, this is my observation and the allegation of the Department of Justice
As I stated, Executive Privilege is NOT in the Constitution. That’s a provable fact. The Supreme Court ruled executive privilege and congressional oversight are each a CONSEQUENCE of the doctrine of Separation of Powers. Again, however, it is NOT in the Constitution. A legal ruling was made on the subject, just like many OTHER LAWS for which you pretend have no basis by not being explicitly outlined in the Constitution.
The Supreme Court confirmed the legitimacy of this doctrine in United States v Nixon, the same case that led to the Presidential Records Act for which this conversation is built. It is ALSO the crucial case limiting the power of any US President to claim executive privilege, ordering him to provide tape recordings and subpoenaed materials to the court.
How ironic.
So, wait…now you acknowledge we have laws outside of the Constitution. You’re now talking about the courts. Wasn’t this ENTIRE argument built on you stating the Presidential Records Act is not in the Constitution so it is moot? But, wait…now, you’re talking about courts.
Ah, so NOW you’re talking about something being implied and then trying to use logic to interpret and ask why would we allow this or that?
Kind of funny, actually…you ignored that same type of argument when it came to a VP single-handedly calling the Presidential election, or having a President steal nuclear secrets and classified documents and hiding them in his office desk drawer at a golf resort.
But, before…you were talking about the President has unchecked power and we should ignore court decisions relating to it because the Constitution and it if isn’t clearly outlined in the Constitution (the one you want to shred, btw) than it doesn’t count. Now you’re bringing up court decisions and implications…the same stuff you ignored and dismissed before.
Again…the irony.
You self owned, actually, on a grand scale. Though, I’m not surprised you think you won. You have clear patterns.
You ONLY say you want to not get personal and don’t want insults and then, consistently, show you can’t go a day without doing it. Then, you AGAIN deflect, abandon responsibility, and claim you are justified in your hypocrisy because DJ is mean or some other shit.
Clear patterns on display on a daily basis. No integrity. No responsibility. Pure and utter hypocrisy in every single aspect
