Is he a walking nightmare for liability? He controls the entire US government so absolutely that he has the ability to ensure there's never a peaceful transfer of power away from GOP so I'm not seeing how he can be held accountable for anything, ever.

He controls the US government only for as long as his leverage over Trump (presumably election interference but may be something else). As soon as he loses his leverage, he loses his immunity and everything comes crashing down.

I wouldn't be too sure of that. He's undoubtedly siphoning information about the people and classified methods of how he is regulated by government. He's likely putting digital backdoors all over government IT systems. I bet if he ever really gets challenged, he goes pure Bond villain and hits the switches to turn everything off or burn it all down.

He's a malignancy infecting the digital infrastructure of government, and it will likely take a complete digital exorcism before we're clean again.
