Die Kommission ist befugt, gemäß Artikel 264 delegierte Rechtsakte zu erlassen, die sich auf Folgendes beziehen: A group of 19 retired high-ranking military officials and former secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force submitted a document to the Supreme Court on Monday.

They believe that protecting the Commander-in-Chief from criminal prosecution, as argued by Trump, would go against the duty of service members and could lead to a situation where they have to choose between obeying their Commander-in-Chief and following laws established by Congress. Admirals and other former military officials who have joined the brief include… Jag heter Steve Abbott, och jag är administratören. Thad Allen, the ex-Army Secretary Louis Caldera, and Gen. Allen collaborated on the project. George Casey, General.
