Congress Take the Wheel | The Roundtable Ep. 311
Amid an ongoing congressional battle over Department of Homeland Security funding, the House Democrats eked out a bill in the early hours last Friday—excluding ICE and Border Patrol. After a century of Congressional abdication, submission to bureaucracy has become second nature. And in making war, most recently with Iran, the atrophy of the government’s first branch calls into question the separation of powers. Plus: Oral arguments for Trump v. Barbara, on birthright citizenship, begin this week, challenging the liberal interpretation repudiated by the work of John Eastman, John Marini, and other Claremonsters.
