Breaking Constitutional Boundaries with Elijah Emery

America's constitutional foundation is buckling under the weight of executive fiat, with a president governing almost exclusively through executive orders while Congress passes fewer bills than at any point in history. Elijah Emery comes back to discuss the following: • Executive power has been expanding since WWII, but the current administration represents an acceleration of this trend with open defiance of court orders• Legal analysis shows virtually everything the administration has implemented falls outside statutory authority, representing unprecedented lawlessness• The administration's tariff policies violate tax and spending powers constitutionally reserved for Congress, using emergency declarations without actual emergencies• Courts have been ruling against the administration, but many orders are being ignored or circumvented through administrative workarounds• The Alien Enemies Act is being misused to justify deportations without due process, with Supreme Court rulings being openly defied• Civil society, including universities, law firms, and business leaders, is beginning to organize legal resistance as economic impacts spread to Republican states• Traditional institutional checks are failing, but declining approval ratings and business community opposition suggest limits to how far this can goIf you're concerned about these issues, follow reputable legal analysis sources and support organizations defending constitutional governance.
