RE: The Democracy That Died In Darkness, MAGA 2.0: The Fork In The Road

I'm curious to see the general and media response to Trump's Executive Orders. Parsing them last night, the flurry or concentration of Executive Orders seems likely calculated to make them more difficult to challenge in Federal Courts.

Concerning the Southern Border, President Trump invoked the National Emergencies Act, and we should see a filing in the Federal Register this week. A National Emergency Declaration has a certain form. Once declared, a National Emergency can either be suspended by a subsequent declaration from the President or both chambers of Congress can pass a Joint Resolution declaring the emergency over.

    Are you saying he declared a national emergency over the border? Declaring a national emergency, under the emergency doctrine act, allows them to call for a continuity of government, which they changed the rules back in 2007 that allows them to include any threats from a UAP but it also allows them to appoint regional governors over regions of the US. So if the national emergency is over the border, it isn't a legit reason for a COG but the drone swarms could be a legit reason for a COG. Are they specifically stating the southern border?
