Counter fulcrum: When Biden authorized the flying of illegal aliens (against US law) was he within his official capacity?

SOLID GROUNDS TO PROSECUTE BIDEN, IMO

Or ignoring the SC ruling that he can’t forgive some student loans.

When Traitorjoe gives aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States, is he doing it in his official capacity?!?

I would argue that a president CAN’T be operating within his official capacity if his actions are outside his constitutional authority. While Biden certainly has authority to enforce immigration law, he has NO authority to refuse to enforce it. His actions in flinging the borders wide open and secretly flying illegals all over the country in the dead of night are clearly not only outside his authority as President, but completely contrary to his sworn duty. Thus, he’s clearly pursuing a personal political agenda in doing so, and should be 100% exposed to criminal and/or civil liability related to it.

Trump, on the other hand, was trying to ensure election integrity and doing so within the process delineated in Article II of the Constitution. There were certainly differing legal opinions on how the Article II process was to be applied, and whether highly questionable reported results from several states could be sent back to those states for another look, as those states themselves requested, but clearly what Trump was advocating was well within the boundaries of at least the spirit of those provisions, even if contested by some legal “experts.”

Trump was trying to protect the integrity of our election system, while Biden was trying to subvert the integrity of our immigration and border security system. So I would argue that Trump was operating well within his official capacity while Biden was way outside the bounds of his, and actually actively working against his sworn duties.
