Trump’s Actions Have Created a Constitutional Crisis, Scholars Say Law professors have long debated what the term means. But now many have concluded that the nation faces a reckoning as President Trump tests the boundaries of executive power.

"We are in the midst of a constitutional crisis right now," said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at the University of California, Berkeley. "There have been so many unconstitutional and illegal actions in the first 18 days of the Trump presidency. We never have seen anything like this."

With little significant resistance rising in Congress or within the Republican Party, President Trump’s opponents are turning to the judicial branch. More than 40 lawsuits filed in recent days seek to push back against his executive actions.

Hegseth’s former sister-in-law says he believed women shouldn’t vote That tracks with the tenets of a religious movement he's involved in.

Buried toward the end of the press release was another eye-opening detail. Pete Hegseth allegedly said, β€œwomen should not vote or work and that Christians needed to have more children so they could overtake the Muslim population.”

UM.

Biggest lawbreaker ever accusing the brave Bishop of weaponizing the pulpit when he breaks norms all over the place and tramples the law? We must fight fire with fire against this lunatic.

Ironic that the biggest lawbreaking President we ever had would accuse the brave Bishop of weaponizing the pulpit and not following norms. We must fight fire with fire against him- no other choice.
