Gautham FC: Before SCOTUS' ruling, here's our historian's brief which argues there is no basis in founding era history for the idea that presidents should enjoy immunity. In fact, the founders believed that presidents should be accountable under the rule of law. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

<p>Historians' Amicus Brief in <em>Trump v. United States</em></p>www.brennancenter.org A group of 15 founding era historians represented by the Brennan Center and Friedman Kaplan Seiler Adelman LLP have filed a brief challenging Trump's claim of immunity.

I think it's amusing that this Brennan Center brief on Presidential claims of immunity notes three times--if I counted correctly--that the founders said that the President could even be subjected to capital punishment.

There would be no IMPEACHMENT PROCESS if immunity were any part of the office of President.
