What authority does POTUS have specifically over the Marines?

-Marine Corps Law 1834 gives President authority over Marines for any duties President sees fit.

-National Security Act of 1947 (10 U.S.C. § 5063) states the areas of responsibility of the Marine Corps include "Such other duties as the President or Department of Defense may direct".

 

Why is this important?

-The President doesn't need Congressional approval.

 

What is Mueller's background? Military?

-Once a Marine, Always a Marine.
