He made a sweeping point about Congress' power to hold a President to account — in an argument that will reverberate throughout Trump's attempt to fend off an oversight offensive.
Judge Amit Mehta said it was “simply not fathomable” that a Congress that is constitutionally authorized to remove a chairwoman did not have the power to investigate him.
