That's the definition of a derived duty, and it isn't what I'd call "law."

I'm not getting into semantics, I'm talking about the original post I replied to, namely

he has a clear duty to protect their secrecy

Which is talking about a duty in derived sense, not a codified duty.

No, I'm talking about law. Administrative law is set by the administrative branch of the government as delegated by congress. It's not codified, but is the policy and procedures of those administrative bodies, which has the force of law. Breaching those policies and procedures, which is what Trump did, is in violation of administrative law.

A legal duty is a more nebulous concept that is generally based on legal precedent. Usually has to do with something related to torts. You can't just take someone to court for an novel legal duty and expect that to magically stick criminally. It needs to be codified by congress or created in administrative law first.

I was talking about this guy's actual legal arguments about hypothetical administrative powers of the presidency. I do not give a shit about Hillary's emails and I did feel that what trump did was illegal.

I see that you still have no idea what the hell I was talking about, but you still consider yourself superior.

I'd never heard of it.

Very funny for the religious right to be appropriating Locke quotes and Iroquois symbolism.

The Locke quotes reminds me of the Chinese concept of the "mandate of heaven", but more populist

If you post bad memes in a shitposting community, aren't you just really good at shitposting?

Seems silly to characterize one of the key functions of the court (deciding what case to take) as rigging. I'm not saying that I don't find this court a reactionary shit pile, just that they're acting exactly as you'd expect them to
