up the ante here and say, we need you to do more, then yeah, we are going to end up in this sort of in-between world.

Yeah, look, I think we have to be careful. Everyone can interpret constitutional crisis differently, but I'm very wary of the boy who cried wolf scenario. I think if everything is a constitutional crisis, nothing is. And believe me, in my seven years in media, I've seen people call the decision not to indict Dan Scavino for contempt of Congress, if you remember that one.

That's a constitutional crisis. You know, people tend to call anything they don't like a constitutional crisis. The way I define it is, again, when we don't have a map for what comes next.

One of the things that we've learned is that the executive branch can probably get away with a lot if it doesn't give a damn about norms and conventions and good faith. I think we're seeing that come to bear a bit. And the other thing that strikes me about the way the Trump administration has gone about its immigration agenda.

And look, of course, it was probably the number one issue Donald Trump ran on. Yes, he was elected. but they're choosing to do it the hardest possible ways. They are setting this bizarre degree of difficulty for themselves in the ways they're choosing to go about this.

For example, in the other case involving the Venezuelan gangsters, allegedly, they're using the Alien Enemies Act, this 1798 law that applies to foreign incursions. Like, You don't need to pull out these exotic, bizarre, rare laws. If you want to deport people who are here illegally, it's really pretty easy. You can go through the immigration courts. You can make arrests. You can deport people.

They get their due process. But for some reason, they're choosing these extraordinarily difficult methodologies to do this. Also in the student cases where we see students, Tufts in Columbia who are being detained and then potentially arrested, they're using this, again, sort of rare law that allows the Secretary of State to declare someone a security risk.
