And there it is. Buckle up. The innocuous term that political scientists use for what is about to befall-- "a constitutional crisis"-- always seemed to me too academic and genteel for what it described.

I spoke at DePaul University this evening with a group of amazing, politically engaged students. The professor who invited me showed me this 1894 newspaper clipping about Italian immigrants eating cats and dogs. I had never seen it before. The more things change...
