Katsas says broadly "president is immune from injunctions directing the performance of his official duties & Art II grants him power to remove agency heads."

Staggeringly poor thinking by an appellate court judge. SCOTUS' recent immunity decision doesn't bar civil injunctions barring unconstitutional actions by a president!
