Remember, they like threw in North Korea and Venezuela, I think, because there's like, oh, it's not a Muslim ban. It's like these countries that we have some reason to be fearful of. Yeah. This time around, they are doing things flatly constitutional legal in a flatly unconstitutional legal manner with no fig leaf. They are firing the IGs. They are firing career people at DOJ.

And therefore, any part of the administrative state or the executive that doesn't do exactly what his whims are moment to moment is illegitimate.
