The article examines the legal implications of President Trump's early executive actions, suggesting a troubling trend of bypassing established laws and constitutional provisions. It highlights the freezing of federal funds, the firing of career officials, and an attempt to end birthright citizenship as examples of actions taken with little regard for legal precedent or framework. The administration's vague and contradictory statements further underline a pattern of authoritarian aspiration, raising questions about the rule of law and checks and balances in governance.
Through the sometimes blinding storm of executive orders and memorandums in the opening days of President Trump's new administration, one pattern is already becoming clear: This is not a crew particularly interested in law.
Many of its orders and memorandums so far are bafflingly vague and internally contradictory, some checkered with embarrassing errors, others largely devoid of references to law.
