Even the supreme court seems to have no power ATM. They've granted Trump the ability to do whatever the fuck he wants and now they are too scared to push back because it would expose that they have 0 authority over this current administration.

Ah, but they do get to be the arbiters of the enigmatic “official act” which serves as an impenetrable immunity from prosecution. Whether he’s impeached or not now requires their permission. If they decide X or Y isn’t an official act, he could be toast (assuming congressional support existed to do so).

We all know that any action taken by a non-Trump president would be deemed non-official under this kangaroo Court.
