How the Supreme Court Delivered Trump a Short-Term Political Win — and a Long-term Loss to His Quest for Broader Power
The Supreme Court handed a short-term political win to Trump on Thursday when justices punted on rulings that will likely keep his financial records out of public view until after the November election. But while the rulings spared Trump that immediate scrutiny, they were ultimately a long-term loss to his claims of sweeping executive power. The decisions fenced in Trump’s authority by denying both his claim to be immune from prosecution as President and his insistence that the separation of powers between Congress and the executive limits how deeply Congress can reach into his personal papers. Trump seethed in response, ... read more

Bill Mitchell says that first they ask you to wear a mask, then they force you to wear a burka, and the next thing you know you’re “enslaved again.” Finally, the ... read more

Why Trump Is So Enraged at the Supreme Court
WASHINGTON — President Trump got so mad at the Supreme Court on Thursday morning you could almost hear his Twitter-thumbs mashing his phone in a rage. And for good reason: The high court just unleashed a prosecutor Trump can’t control. The justices ruled that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance does have the power to aggressively investigate Trump as a state prosecutor — and obliterated Trump’s defense that such a probe would violate the Constitution. The decision means things could get downright messy for Trump. Vance has been vigorously probing the inner workings of Trump’s family business, and ... read more

(WASHINGTON) — The ousted U.S. attorney who was leading investigations into President Donald Trump’s allies told the House Judiciary panel on Thursday that Attorney General William Barr “repeatedly urged” him to resign during a hastily arranged meeting that sheds light on the extraordinary standoff surrounding his departure.
