Finally, one of the judges referenced the oath the President takes -- "I think it's paradoxical to say that his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed allows him to violate criminal law." Talk about stating the obvious

She is the elder of that court. Seventy-nine years old and was first appointed by Reagan, the H.W. Bush put her on the DC Appellate Court. She kicked ass with that statement.
She did in fact. Coincidentally, there was a U.S. bankruptcy judge in South Carolina named Karen Henderson at the same time this Karen Henderson was a U.S. District Court judge in South Carolina. I sat in the bankruptcy judge's court a couple of times while covering the bankruptcy of the PTL television ministry in the late 1980s.
The criminal trial was more interesting. The government did a really good job of showing how deep was Jim Bakker's intention of taking as much money as he could for himself, even as the ministry was going bankrupt. (It would have had to file bankruptcy in 1987 even if Bakker's affair hadn't been discovered and he hadn't resigned.) The bankruptcy case was just sad. I think the people whose money the Bakkers stole ended up getting maybe 7 cents on the dollar. I felt so badly for them.
Any decision that helps Trump in any way is helping the destruction of our ideals and the rule of law. We could become a nation run by warring oligarchs.
Listening to the hearing was so bizarre.

Yeah, that was Judge Henderson. She basically got Sauer to admit that she was right, too.

Oh myyy...that had to be very interesting!
