Careful about casting your lot too hard with Congress. Separation of power is a good thing.

What has people confused is that the visible part of the current battle is intramural - the executive is at war with itself. Nunes and Congress can open that can of worms, but in the general sense (when the executive department is roughly honest), it is okay for the executive to hide prosecution activity from the Congress.

Absolutely agreed. Also, holding my chips on Judge Wonderful, the federal one. Reagan appointed, or not. How many times have we been burned by the courts back east?

There is a global contract out on our president. Caution is very good advice.

Agreed. But in these desperate times a lot of unsavory compromises will be necessary. But we must hold POTUS feet to the fire about returning all such ‘special actions’ to Constitutional standards ASAP.
