“The first magistrate of the Union may more properly be likened to the first magistrate of a state [than to a king] and is not known ever to have been doubted but that the chief magistrate of a state might be served with a subpoena." John Marshall subpoenaing President Jefferson in 1807

"Do you never worry?"
"Would it help?"
Sorry to be pedantic but wholly accurate.

Chief Justice John Marshall in 1807 ruled that the President was subject to a subpoena, just like any other citizen. That was during Aaron Burr's treason trial, an attempt, I believe, of Jefferson to kill or punish his former Vice President. Once again, history rhymes.

Chief Justice John Marshall ruled that President Jefferson could be subpoenaed since “while the people had elected him, he remained a citizen and, thus, subject to the same laws as other citizens” in the treason trial against Aaron Burr in 1807.

I remember "Impeach Earl Warren" bumperstickers & expect to see "Impeach John Roberts" sometime soon John Birch Society went from trying to impeach the Chief Justice to, in effect, being the Chief Justice

In my 70s, I find that you have to keep moving more if you want to keep moving well. Having good ergonomics is key but so is maintaining the muscles, flesh, blood, bone, & all the meat we carry that carries us. Find something that moves your body, do it regularly, & your body will keep moving you.
