This is the Supreme Court more or less officially agreeing with the nixonian logic of “if the president does it, that means that it is not illegal”. I honestly don’t see another way to describe it.

Biden should by all means act accordingly. But I sincerely doubt he will.

I understand what the “official” position is, but I can also read between the lines.
