Trump already lost on birthright citizenship. Now he is testing the limits of constitutional law with two narrower executive orders. We explain the high-stakes game of chicken underway: can a president just keep pushing after the courts and the Constitution say no?
Plus, a rapid-fire breakdown of this week’s legal chaos:

  • Vanity Plates: A bizarre but critical free speech fight.
  • DOJ Takeover: Todd Blanche officially steps in as Attorney General after a bruising confirmation fight over Trump, DOJ independence, and a $1.8 billion slush fund.
  • The $400 Million Ballroom: A court abruptly blocks Trump’s massive White House construction plan.
  • Targeting Fauci: Senate Republicans vote to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt.
