"a former president has absolute immunity for his core constitutional powers — and is entitled to a presumption of immunity for his official acts, but lacks immunity for unofficial acts"
There is lots of gray area and wiggle room there.
I can see, as much as some would like an American President to be called before an international court for Acts of War, the government was not going to allow that.
Of course, now we will have to prove the January 6th insurrection was not an official act.
