BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.

That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.

Trump singed an EO prohibiting flag burning, with punishment being one year in prison. SCOTUS has ruled that flag burning is protected under the First Amendment (1989). Congress passed Flag Protection Act of 1989 to ban flag desecration. In 1990, SCOTUS struck that law down as unconstitutional.
