It is absolutely not OK for the Administration to hold a military-issues briefing restricted to members of a single political party. There is nothing--nothing--where nonpartisanship is more essential than in the governance of the military. A one-party military is not an instutition of a democracy.

Always read Steve on law. An additional gloss is that a state could, I think, prosecute a fed officer for unconstitutional acts that violate state criminal law, as such acts cannot, as a matter of law, be reasonably necessary to enforce federal law (though a version of qualified immunity may apply).

The Founders Never Meant to Give the President Unchecked Removal Powers: A Conversation with Noah Rosenblum
It would be a constitutional mistake for the Roberts Court to overturn Humphrey's Executor and embrace an extreme version of the Unitary Executive Theory
Terrific, deeply informed conversation on the president's removal powers, with all sorts of fascinating historical details and reading recommendations. Highly recommend! From @andycraig.bsky.social and @narosenblum.bsky.social

The human mind cannot fathom the extent of the corrupt profit that the Trump family will reap by the end of this presidency.
Congress, controlled by his political party, shows no sign of caring.
