I'm Henry Gass, the Christian Science Monitor's Supreme Court reporter. AMA about President Trump, SCOTUS, and presidential power.

I'm Henry Gass and I'm the Supreme Court reporter (among other beats) at the Christian Science Monitor. Last month I wrote about a case before the justices this term that raises weighty questions about presidential power and President Trump. How has the court answered that question in the past? And how are they examining it now? Fundamentally, do the laws that apply to everyone else also apply to the president? My article on the topic: csmonitor.com/oYDPEo. You can follow me on Twitter @henrygass and follow the Monitor @csmonitor.
