Book of authoritarian legal play
Professor UCLA Law Scott KamingsWith a reminder of what we are in:
To understand the procedure that must be taken requires a clarity on the democratic attack, which is now submitting brutal efficiency against the United States. Trump and his legal team carefully studied how democracies die. They learned the main lesson: Democratic decline occurs when elected leaders claim an authorization to erode the democratic columns – empty and fair elections, basic rights, checks and balances – to enlarge the executive authority.

Warning: The funny math trick in the Republican Party
Republicans intend to rely on it It has never been unprecedented of magic mathematics To make passes his huge bill, which contains major elements of President Trump’s agenda, is only possible by a majority of the Senate vote.
With everything else, it was difficult to keep focusing on this crucial part of the weight. Junior mathematics will significantly reduce the cost of extending Trip’s tax cuts and low reductions in spending to be compensated. All of this would facilitate the passage of the huge draft law by voting the simple majority in the reconciliation package.
The main obstacle to this tactic is Parliament in the Senate. He is expected to rule soon On whether this scheme passes a crowd under the Senate rules.
The largest historical context must be clear through this point: The Republican Party promotes policies such as tax cuts and supports having strong principles such as extracting the spending of deficit that does not add or enjoy popularity, so when payment comes to payment, they change the rules, anger mathematics, and hide the separation between what they say and what they are doing already.
Today’s quote
