    If Congress decides to throw its weight around, 60 days is the limit. Not that it particularly matters, considering 60 days is more than Biden has left anyway.

      No if congress decides to throw its weight around they can recommend or advocate but according to the Supreme Court there is no legal remedy. Subpoenas have even shown to be toothless these past few years…

      The president is acting in their official capacity and at that point no one on earth has a legal remedy to rein that in.

      Yes I ended that sentence in a preposition, I’m president go fuck yourself and try to arrest me.
