The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Yes, the Trump-Vance administration just told Germany it should make nice with a far-right political party with a history of using Nazi rhetoric and accepting racists and antisemites. And no Republican will complain. This is neo-fascism.

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything
3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can
4. Citizens march en mass
