In his final days in office, Joe Biden is being urged by filmmaker Michael Moore to go big and unleash his “full immunity.” Moore points to a recent Supreme Court ruling that expanded presidential immunity for “official acts,” meaning Biden could make bold moves without worrying about political backlash. Moore’s “bucket list” includes adding gender equality to the Constitution, wiping out student and medical debt, pardoning Edward Snowden, and banning spam texts.
