Justice Alito just blew up the entire argument by the DOJ.

Alito: "If the president gets advice from the attorney general, that something is lawful, is that an absolute defense?"

Dreeben: “yes”

Alito: “Wouldn’t the President just pick an AG who’ll let him do whatever he wants?”

Dreeben looked stunned

Apparently the AG can provide absolute immunity, but the President who is his boss can’t.
