Thank you, Ms. Needham. Well said. If everything is national security or an emergency, then nothing is. Hopefully the greatest con man in world history is facing his Waterloo - voluntarily or involuntarily. It would be wonderful if the majority party in Congress had even an iota of the moral courage of our Founders.
Please permit just one semantic complaint. A paragraph near the end of this excellent piece blames "the conservatives running both of those branches," i.e., the legislature and the Supreme Court, for what is going on.
True conservatism calls for preservation of what is good, and caution about untested change.
However: the passive Republican legislators are facilitating America's decent into autocracy, while an activist Supreme Court accelerates the process. This is not conservatism: it is treason.
The next supreme Court ruling will say "a president (meaning trump) cannot lie." That is, everything he says must be true, because he is president. Anyone contradicting him is a traitor to... national security.
We gave the keys to the kingdom to a mental midget moron with severe impulse control issues. I hope I live long enough to see that dude behind bars being someone’s bi**h.😡. You know he’s all over the Epstein files for a reason.

Excellent points about “National Security “. Didn’t they think about this first before they suddenly tore down the East Wing? Silly question.
