Fetterman Suggests Trump's Power Grabs No Worse Than Biden's
Briefly

A heated constitutional crisis is unfolding as the new administration claims expansive executive powers, facing pushback from federal judges. Democratic leaders express concerns over a potential coup, especially in light of Elon Musk's influence. Senator Ron Wyden warned of a violation of the separation of powers, asserting that unelected individuals’ attempts to assert control threaten democratic institutions. Conversely, Team Trump pushes back, framing judicial resistance to Trump's orders as abuse of authority. This complex tug-of-war underscores a significant political divide, raising critical questions about the limits of executive power and judicial independence.
The Founding Fathers said, "Look, here's what Congress does. Here's what the president does... If you have unelected individuals breaking the law to take power, that about fits the definition of a coup."
The real constitutional crisis is taking place within our judicial branch... abusing their power to unilaterally block President Trump's basic executive authority, a continuation of the weaponization of justice against Trump.
