Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

This is the intersection point between Muskian arrogance and idiot populism: The conviction that there’s an extremely simple solution for everything that, somehow, nobody else has ever noticed & that you via either genius or “common sense” have uniquely hit upon.

In the new "Fact Sheet" from the White House, Trump takes over the role of the Judiciary. He claims that "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed" means he is the arbiter of what is lawful in the Executive branch. It reads as a prelude to ignoring the courts when they try to rein him in.
