1:54:15Now PlayingGlenn Greenwald and Elizabeth Price Foley debate the president's immunity from prosecution for official acts.
Did the Supreme Court err in its July 1 ruling that "the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority"? That's the subject of this month Soho Forum debate. Law professor Elizabeth Price Foley and journalist Glenn Greenwald debate the resolution, "Presidential immunity for official acts is a key factor in the proper functioning of the U.S. government's executive branch."
Defending the resolution is Foley, a Professor of Law at Florida International University, where she teaches constitutional law and separation of powers. She has testified before Congress on numerous constitutional topics, and is the author of three books on constitutional law.
Arguing for the negative is Greenwald, a journalist and podcaster who won the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service for the NSA-Snowden revelations. He left The Intercept in 2020 to become independent, and is now the host of SYSTEM UPDATE nightly on Rumble.
The moderator is Soho Forum director Gene Epstein.
