This really feels like the separation of powers is being stress tested in real time. The system is supposed to check itself, but lately that feels less certain.

Quick rule-of-law briefing.
Some members of Congress are claiming that Trump’s recent actions fall within the War Powers Act. That claim is a lie.

Under the new proposal, current or former #DOJ lawyers would be prohibited from assisting state-level investigations until the #US AG's “review” is finished.
#Trump appointee AG #PamBondi already signed the draft rule, which will be open for public comment for 30 days starting on Thursday […]
For instance, an attorney #ethics panel in Washington recommended last year that #JeffreyClark, a senior #DOJ official during Trump's first term as president, be #disbarred for conduct involving dishonesty.
Clark sought to enlist the DOJ in Trump's failed attempts to overturn his […]
The proposal takes aim at the actions of #bar associations & similar professional organizations, not government entities, that investigate alleged #unethical conduct by #lawyers & consider actions such as #disbarment, which involves revoking a #license to practice #law [cuz, yeah, sane humans […]
The proposal would give the #USattorney general the right to review misconduct allegations against current or former #DOJ #attorneys & request that disciplinary authorities at the state level suspend their investigations.
That would mean that the #US AG, by dragging out such a review, could […]
Of course they do…
#Trump #DOJ aims to limit #ethics probes into its lawyers
The #US “Justice” Department is seeking to constrain ethics investigations conducted at the state level into alleged #misconduct by its lawyers, according to a proposed rule submitted on Wednesday that would shield […]

MAGA can't do transparency. It would incriminate Trump and other pedophiles.

"Youngstown" by Baude analyzes the enduring importance of the Youngstown decision, clarifying limits on executive authority and the role of courts in checking presidential actions. spkl.io/63327AapXN #ConstitutionalLaw #Youngstown #SeparationOfPowers
"Chief Justice John Roberts is sending a message not only to Mr. Trump but also to the waiting world. Something along the lines of, 'People, this is what we’re dealing with.' The point being not that some fertilizers are now exempt from reciprocal tariffs but that a reckless president is sowing […]
Congress controls the purse — not the Executive. If a President can shut off MN’s Medicaid pipeline, they can shut off KY’s next. Our state budget cannot absorb that kind of hit. 🗽📜 #SeparationOfPowers #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw #ProtectKY
Congress controls the purse, not the President. Halting MN’s Medicaid funding undermines constitutional checks & balances. If the Executive can target MN, they can target Kentucky tomorrow. 🗽📜 #SeparationOfPowers #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw
4/12 This isn’t just economic, it’s constitutional. The framers split authority over trade and taxation for a reason. No single executive was meant to wield that leverage alone.

That explanation was not enough for Judge Laura M. Provinzino of the Federal District Court for the District of Minnesota. #Last Wednesday, she found Mr. Isihara in civil #contempt of court.
Legal experts said her ruling marked the first time during Trump’s second term that a judge had […]
“Why should I not hold you in #contempt?” the judge asked a #DOJ lawyer at a hearing last week. Instead of answers, she got excuses.
“I don’t think there was ever any intention to defy the court orders,” said the lawyer, Matthew Isihara, a military judge advocate [#JAG] on temporary assignment […]
#Trump announced Saturday that he would raise his new, global #tariff to 15%, a day after he took steps to replicate some of the punishing duties that had been struck down by #SCOTUS.
Trump announced the change in a post on social media, & said the #tariffs would take effect immediately, as he […]
“I think it persuaded some, but we have this ruling now that so clearly puts the power back in Congress’s hands, the House’s hands,” Bacon said. “We have to stand up on our own two feet & use these authorities, because that’s what the founders intended.”
He, too, posted a screenshot of Justice […]
Rep #DonBacon of Nebraska, one of the few #Republicans in the #House who has forced votes to overturn #Trump’s #tariffs & is set to #retire next year, said in an interview on CNN on Friday that one of the arguments #GOP leaders had used to keep their members from breaking was that “the president […]
