SCOTUS will toss this law out as impeding the president from doing his duties or some bullshit based on their previous decision that he is a king.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He won't be found liable for misconduct, but I don't think you can wriggle out of providing reasons (eventually). Those reasons are mostly going to be provided post hoc, potentially in secret, and not adequately convince anyone, but I do think they'll choose to comply here rather than trigger more wars with the court system. This is an opportunity for them to broadcast that the SC is on their side too, get liberals riled up, but still follow the law so the liberals will be painted as reactive. All part of the bombardment plan.
but I do think they’ll choose to comply here rather than trigger more wars with the court system.
I don't know, there's an added benefit to "wars" with the court system. IE you get it to the supreme court, then you have precidence. it's a one time chore, to kneecap all courts forever.
And if they don't, so what? There's quite literally nothing to stop Little t from doing anything he wants, because "official acts".
It doesn't help that President Musk has already declared himself Technoking of the Federal government.
1940'S LAWMAKERS DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS ONE SIMPLE TRICK!
That reason?
The law.
If he cared about watertight legal arguments, he would hire people to make them.
Well, thank the void for “that one obscure law”
We need to make more laws like this.
