The President of the United States of America is at war with the Constitution and the rule of law.
Retired Federal Judge Michael Luttig
There's so much every day that now many people just ignore it.
Trump, who isn't Constitutionally eligible to hold the office of President in the first place, has illegally imposed taxes, something reserved to Congress. He's either used emergency powers where there is no emergency, or he's actually imposed them where he's not even authorized through an emergency act.
A completely spineless Republican Party is in control of Congress, and therefore nothing is being done about it in that quarter.
He's ignoring a court order that a prisoner sent to a horrific El Salvadorian prison be returned, using the pretext that fellow traveler Bukele of El Salvador has chosen not to return him, something that I'm confident he could compel to occur.
And that's just a start.
Trump is acting like the Red Caesar desired by an anti democratic element of the far right. The Courts are stepping up. Congress needs to as well.
