And if this law has been universally agreed upon why is the USSC hearing the case?

It hasn't come up with a President before. Nixon was pardoned before it could possibly be litigated (like his civil cases that are the backbone of the arguments in this case).

“The President of the United States would be liable to be impeached, tried, and, upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors, removed from office; and would afterwards be liable to prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law.”
