"From a liberal perspective things are not only getting worse, but could get a lot worse. The illiberals know what they are doing and they are doing it well."
"Yet there is also a possibility that after this period of increasing executive power there could be an equal and opposite reaction: that there will be a nemesis to the illiberal hubris. Most people may want a balance and not an imbalance between politics and law, with the overall position not lopsided in either direction. And so the contest between power and restraint may not yet be over."
Well-reasoned analysis, as ever.
Holding on to the cautious hope expressed in your last paragraph.

NYTimes - Judge Blocks Trump’s Funding Freeze, Saying White House Put Itself ‘Above Congress’ - The ruling extended an order barring the Trump administration from withholding billions in congressionally approved funds to states.

How you’ll know if we descend into a ‘presidential dictatorship’ - “…if Trump successfully defies the courts, the only remaining obstacle to dictatorship will be public revulsion, national popular protest, and the hope that such a reaction would cause Trump to retreat and, at long last, recall some fraction of the Republican Party to its constitutional duty.” Via SLATE. #Coup #AmericanCoup #Authoritarianism #Dictatorship #Democracy #BalanceOfPower #Government #Governing #Politics #USPolitics

The takeover continues unabated…Trump wants an executive branch that is not BALANCED with other constitutional arms of government, he wants a dominant, imperial executive that will bend all parts of government to his whims - and he’s well on the way.

Their plans to centralize more power in the Oval stretch far beyond TFG’s remarks that he would order a criminal investigation into…Biden, signaling his intent to end the postWatergate norm of #DOJ independence from WH politicalcontrol.
#Trump &his assoc have a broader goal: alter the #BalanceOfPower by increasing the president’s authority over EVERY PART OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT that now operates, by either #law or tradition, w/any measure of independence from political interference by the WH… -

@politicsusa46 "burn down the house and run as a third party candidate " only if we are lucky. never underestimate the dems ability to shoot themselves in the foot; see 2016. remember right now the #corps are paying both sides and win in all cases until we can re-establish our democracy; 3 independent branches of government with #balanceOfPower and #checksAndBalances with #honorable people serving the needs of the people .

Interesting to observe the #EU making clear overtures to the western #Balkans while #Putin attempts to destroy #Ukraine. #BalanceOfPower is shifting.

We all know how that turned out. be afraid, be very afraid. #SeparationOfPower and #BalanceOfPower are the corner stones of a free healthy #democracy
