All this paper-thin plausible deniability shit comes up constantly and they use it to shield each other from consequences. Reagan says he didn't know about Iran Contra. Bush says he has a memo that lets him violate US law, the UCMJ, international law, and every other law and torture people because a lawyer wrote "torture is not torture" on a napkin.
Obama can hunt down and assassinate US citizens but citizens can't sue to keep him from assassinating them because his orders are all secret so they're not allowed to see them so they can't prove that he's using the sceret orders to illegally murder him, and since they can't prove it the courts are helpless, and it just goes around in circles. It's all bullshit, it's all makebelieve. Power does what it wants and there are no consequences.
