"The Fourth Amendment (1791) protects people against unreasonable searches and seizures of either self or property
by government officials. A search can mean everything from a frisking
by a police officer or to a demand for a blood test to a search of an
individual's home or car. A seizure occurs when the government takes
control of an individual or something in his or her possession. Items
that are seized often are used as evidence when the individual is
charged with a crime. It also imposes certain limitations on police
investigating a crime and prevents the use of illegally obtained
evidence at trial. "

The Yom Kippur Prayer on Cory Booker’s Lips

Trump’s Trade War Could Put Swiss-Size Dent in Global Economy, I.M.F. Warns

The Trump Impeachment Inquiry: What Happened Today
With a dramatic letter to Democrats and the blocking of a key witness, the
White House signaled how far it was willing to go to oppose investigative
efforts.
Congress has the right to investigate.

White House Declares War on Impeachment Inquiry, Claiming Effort to Undo Trump’s Election
Nicholas Fandos, Peter Baker, Michael S. Schmidt and Maggie Haberman at NYT > U.S. > Politics - 16 hours ago
President Trump’s lawyer denounced the House investigation as an
illegitimate exercise, and declared that the executive branch would not
participate.
Trump's election is a past event.
It cannot be undone.
He has done the things he should not have done if he wishes to stay in office.
A Democratic congress and president would certainly do other things than Trump would do.
First the Democrats must win.
Impeachment and removal will not remove Trump's actions.
If Trump manages to stop the investigation I fear for our imperfect democracy and Constitution.

He Was Trump’s First Fan in Congress. Now He’s a Felon.

America’s Betrayal of the Kurds
So, Trump’s going to let Turkey invade area of Syria held by the Kurds.
Yes, this is a betrayal of one of America’s allies. But no one. No one with
any sense should EVER think that America is actually their ally. America
will betray anyone. America doesn’t even have interests, it has domestic
politics bought […]
Ian Welsh makes good points.
I cannot refute him on this.
Democratic party internal politics get less of his attention.
