- The Supreme Court's 2024 Trump v. United States decision, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said, greatly expands presidential powers, applying to all presidents, not just Trump, the Wall Street Journal editorial board reminded.
- Cruz noted that FDR and Truman could not be prosecuted for wartime decisions, citing Obama's drone strike on Anwar al-Awlaki as an official act barred from prosecution.
- Despite the debate over presidential immunity, no charges have been filed yet against Obama or his allies, highlighting ongoing discussions about accountability and legal limits.
