Mailbag: High Crimes, Low Blows, and the Limits of Presidential Power

  • Resumen

  • Powered by your toughest questions, Tristan dives into a whirlwind of legal and constitutional chaos: Can a sitting president be court-martialed for crimes committed in office? (Spoiler: No, but the constitutional crisis scenarios get wild.) Is defying a Supreme Court order impeachable? Absolutely—and Tristan explains why Congress’s refusal to act is a historic failure. Listeners ask about the slow grind of justice for Trump-era corruption, the legal exposure of law firms and universities targeted for political retribution, and why staffers who “do the criming” might want to lawyer up. Tristan breaks down the myth that undocumented immigrants aren’t protected by the Constitution, using both legal logic and a baguette-wielding tourist for good measure. Plus: Can Americans sue the Supreme Court for its presidential immunity ruling? (Don’t get your hopes up.) And, finally, will embattled officials like Pete Hegseth ever step down—or will dysfunction reign?
