Worth your time: "State of Permanent Fake Emergency"
Trump is using unlimited emergency powers to undermine American democracy.
I know, I know, you guys don't care, as long as he trolls his enemies and owns the libs. Culture war uber alles.

Permanent implies the US will last forever. Won't if we keep shipping jobs overseas.

If there's an existential threat to a city and the locals can't manage it, not an emergency?

Did you conveniently forget States rights like the other far right hypocrites?

That's sort of the point, isn't it? In the event of emergency, states rights can be overridden.

Pay-walled, but I'll yet again repeat David Frum's Atlantic article title.
If Liberals Won’t Enforce Borders, Fascists Will
Liberals, and rational Conservatives, did craft legislation to fix our Border Issues...then Trump
killed it in order to keep low information voters from voting Democratic.
For all those who believe in Free Speech...take note...here's an excerpt from Chris' article...
And the list of threats will only grow. Recall that more than 130 such extraordinary emergency authorizations are already law. What happens, for example, if Trump invokes the Federal Communications Act to take over the airwaves (or the internet) because of a “state of public peril”? Or, worse yet, what if Trump purports to suspend the writ of habeas corpus because “public safety may require it”?
You are the one who claims the sky is falling.

Worth your time and the Atlantic are not congruous.
More leftist babble.
