AUSA who wrote this basically says in the letter, I’m not anti-Trump. I don’t even blame him for this lawless Adams scheme. I blame the fact that no “lawyer within earshot” will tell Trump this is profoundly wrong and lawless.

Very interesting letter from a pro-Trump prosecutor who believes in law.

I appreciate Carlos Lozada's column about how this administration is all about dividing America into two groups, but a bit vague about who's in and who's out.

This helps when some voters in the coalition think the fight is against others also in the coalition...!

Teaching Con Law today and specifically NFIB v Sebelius. I kind of miss the days when the health law question was "can the government make you eat broccoli?"*, vs "can a rogue executive branch blow up all NIH research plus all the overseas vaccine trials run by USAID?"

*not the real question

Instead of justifying disobeying court orders, team Trump is insisting the refs—courts—will rule for them.

“Each executive order will hold up in court because every action of the Trump-Vance administration is completely lawful."

This suggests some vulnerability...
