The military isn’t relevant to the point I was making in that comment. I was pointing out the cognitive dissonance of the court ruling stating as a Finding of Fact that POTUS is “Chief Executive Officer of the Executive Branch” of the US, yet deciding that POTUS is also not an officer of the US. It’s in the court’s own verbiage that POTUS is categorically an officer and said office is that of the US Executive Branch; ergo, POTUS would be an officer of the US.
Oh sure, ignoring the military derail, the whole thing is royally fucked. It’s not only the Supreme Court that is shot through with corruption, the corruption stretches down to the lowers ranks of the judicial branch as well.
