Once again, Congress, under both parties, created an imperial presidency from WWII onward that depended entirely on shared norms about democracy/the rule of law & not abusing that delegated executive authority that no longer exists. When we get through this, <all> of these things need to go.
In a 1983 opinion by Ted Olson(!), DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel concluded that assigning JAG lawyers to serve as Special Assistant U.S. Attorneys violated a statute that bans military officers from exercising the duties of a civil office.

Then, Congress authorized it.

This is dumb—but legal.

That people can’t seem to grasp this—that the kompromat isn’t anything more damning than the evidence and behavior we’ve seen for a decade is a pretty good explanation for why that behavior has gone unpunished. That’s the most unbelievable part to me even after ten years. Smdh

I’d say much more if I wasn’t overwhelmed with the urge to apologize. 😔

I’d bet money they play him. Nothing about any of this suggests they’d do anything prudent.

I dunno if this is real or a parody?

I’m sitting in the corner. He 100% held up not to get hit and the play went the other way.

I dunno. Now it makes the Sam sign seem mean.

Having to see Hank try to polish this turd at the intermission is making it a tight race.

Those aren’t separate things?

I would pay money to hear Dallas fans and media talk about Trouba being an absolute turnstile.

This kinda bit really merits its own account. 10/10 would follow.
