When the president says “national security” he gets additional powers
And when the president says “emergency” he gets additional powers
And when the president says “terrorists” he gets additional powers
Requires presidents who do so rarely, in good faith, only when circumstances make it necessary

The White House is now citing "national security" for everything it does. Seriously, check out these headlines. It's just the last few weeks.
If you know authoritarian history, then you know how menacing this is.

The Epstein Transparency Act is the law. Clearly, this DOJ is willing to defy it to protect Donald Trump and the rich and powerful.
The survivors deserve truth and justice. Release the files.

Rand Paul: "We've never in our past decided just to shoot smugglers who are unarmed without even proof they're smuggling anything. So I think this is a horrendous thing that should stop. I think it's illegal & immoral... the kids in the military - I'm not for sending them down there to die for oil"

Six days ago, the U.S. seized a Venezuelan oil tanker.
Seizures are the step before blockades.
Blockades are the step before open confrontation.
Now the word “blockade” is being said out loud.
This is how escalation becomes policy.

Bennie Thompson on Noem: "Her arrival was short lived. She left in the middle of the hearing ostensibly to go to another meeting. We found that the meeting had been canceled, so she could've stayed. But nonetheless, we're not surprised, because this is who she is."

Whitehouse: Not only were the founders extremely interested in checks and balances but they were desperately concerned about corruption.
This Court has consistently taken the side of corruption against every device Congress has created to fight political corruption.
