The National Security Threat Of . . . Movies?
The invocation of power by calling anything an emergency or national security problem was a gaping hole in Congress’ sloughing off responsibility and authority to do its job to the president. It presumed that the president wouldn’t be so shameless and abusive as to lay claim to power when there was no basis for it…

Judge Rodriguez Enjoins Invocation Of AEA, But…
In a ruling that was both surprising and remarkably unsurprising, Southern District of Texas Judge Fernando Rodriguez Jr. issued a permanent injunction barring the removal of people under the Alien Enemies Act. It was surprising only because Judge Rodriguez was appointed by Trump, and for those on both right and left who believe that judges are…
The DOGE Death of Privacy
It’s not as if Trump or Musk came up with the idea that the government wants to know more about you, about each of us, than we wanted to tell. Remember the efforts to prohibit cash in favor of plastic so that there would be a record of every expense? Remember the elimination of paper…
ICE Raids Citizens’ Home In Oklahoma City
Wrong house raids are nothing new, though they remain as inexcusable now as ever, so when ICE, together with whatever spare letters the government cobbled together, obtained a warrant to raid a house in Oklahoma City, it never dawned on the agents that the people living in the house on the day of the raid…
