Above a good analysis of Lawfare 2.0. The first version being that during the campaign, when the courts were weaponised to try to take Trump off the ballot. When that didn’t work, they went all-in with novel charges against Trump, charges stretched beyond credulity, but aimed to put Trump behind bars for, like, 300 years.
And now we have a blizzard of injunctions against all of Trump’s agenda. To try to drag it out to the mid terms so that they can then claim “chaos” and “look how little he did”. Biden did have a few injunctions against him. But most he simply ignored — like the one to stop the forgiving of student debt, a regressive policy. Biden simply ignored the injunctions and even the subsequent SCOTUS decision against it. IOW, double standards, much?
It will all end up in the Supreme Court. Until that happens all the kerfuffle right now is argument, not “constitutional crisis”.
Note, by the way, that Trump EOs always say —all the ones I’ve read, anyway — “to the extent permitted by law”, and the administration is following every injunction, no matter how inane. So the whole thing of “unlawful” Trump is nonsense. Which we’ve heard from every senior Dem, every single one. Chuck Schumer, AOC, Bernie Sanders, Ayanna Pressley, Jasmine Crockett, Ilhan Omar....
Many of these last-mentioned above are going much further than “Robed Resistance”. They're calling for harm on Elon Musk and now Ted Cruz. They're preaching violence. The atmosphere is febrile. I’ve not seen it like this, ever. No, not even during the anti-Vietnam war days. Not even then by a long way.
This is hyper split, hyper divided, hyper manic, hysterical, hypocritical, threatening, violent.
Sigh…
