Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>This amounts to Trump\u2019s opinion, and is a matter of debate among constitutional scholars. The Supreme Court ruled in 1988 that the appointment of an independent counsel was constitutional, but the rules and circumstances were a little different then. And the Supreme Court has not spoken directly on the constitutionality of current regulations for special counsels.<\/b><\/p>\n

But here, we lay out some of the facts and arguments that underpin the cases for and against the president\u2019s claim. Independent or special counsels are appointed to investigate executive branch officials, and the existing federal code empowers the attorney general to make the determination when a special counsel is necessary.<\/p>\n

According to the Code of Federal Regulations, there are grounds to appoint a special counsel if an investigation into a matter \u201cwould present a conflict of interest for the Department [of 0=\u201dJustice\u201d] or other extraordinary circumstances\u201d and in cases when it \u201cwould be in the public interest\u201d to have an outside counsel.In his order appointing former FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III as special counsel, Rosenstein limited Mueller\u2019s role to leading \u201cthe investigation confirmed by then-FBI Director James B. Comey in testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on March 20, 2017, including… any links and\/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump; and any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation; and any other matters within the scope of 28 C.F.R. \u00a7 600.4(a).\u201d That last bit refers to a part of the federal code that says that the jurisdiction of a special counsel is to include \u201cthe authority to investigate and prosecute federal crimes committed in the course of, and with intent to interfere with, the Special Counsel\u2019s investigation, such as perjury, obstruction of justice, destruction of evidence, and intimidation of witnesses.\u201d No media cameras were allowed at the reception, but a reporter for the conservative Daily Caller news site, Jena Greene, was allowed in and tweeted a video of the Trumps entering a crowded room. Greene quoted the president saying his wife had \u201ca little problem\u201d recently but wouldn\u2019t miss the reception. She said he joked about the media\u2019s speculation regarding the first lady\u2019s recent absence and \u201claughed off\u201d rumors of them breaking up. He said it wasn\u2019t happening.<\/p>\n

As we said, Trump now claims the appointment of Mueller was unconstitutional. The argument, however, is not necessarily that the appointment of any special counsel would be unconstitutional, but rather that this one is, because of the broad investigative powers given to Mueller.<\/p>\n

In an opinion piece written for the Wall Street Journal on May 13, Steven Calabresi, who once served as a special assistant to Attorney General Edwin Meese and as a law clerk to Justice Antonin Scalia, argued that the broad powers bestowed upon Mueller qualify him as a \u201cprincipal officer\u201d who by law must be appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. \u201cThe only significant difference between Mueller\u2019s appointment and the appointment scheme for Independent Counsels, upheld by the Supreme Court in Morrison v. Olson, is that Mueller, unlike the Independent Counsels, was appointed by President Trump\u2019s own appointee, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, rather than by a three-judge court,\u201d Sklansky said. \u201cBut that just makes the argument for the constitutionality of Mueller\u2019s appointment even stronger. Given the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling in Morrison v. Olson, there is no remotely plausible argument that Mueller\u2019s appointment was unconstitutional.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 1988, the Supreme Court ruled in Morrison v. Olson that the Constitution allowed an Independent Counsel to be appointed by a three-judge court, completely separate from the Executive Branch,\u201d Sklansky said via email. \u201cIn reaching that conclusion, the Supreme Court held that an Independent Counsel is an \u2018inferior officer,\u2019 not a \u2018principal officer,\u2019 for reasons that very clearly apply to Mueller: he can be removed by a higher-ranking Department of Justice official, he is authorized only to investigate and, if appropriate, prosecute, particular federal crimes, not to formulate Department of Justice policy, and his jurisdiction is limited to the matters delegated to him by the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n
