Resent President's Act Highlights Line Between Powers
Representative Hardwick says the President overstepped by summoning United States Attorney Baker to request a jail sentence for Robert N Harper. He argues the executive must not influence the courts and that the line between the executive and judiciary should be clearly drawn. Harper's guilt rests on the plainFood law conviction, but the issue is the president's conduct.
