Trump promised voters he would act like a dictator on day one; and he honored that promise, in spades.
Trump tried to nullify the Constitution with an executive order directing agencies to no longer honor the 14th Amendment’s declaration of #birthright #citizenship.
Trump closed the week late on Friday by daring Congress to stem his corruption. He attempted to #fire more than a dozen independent #inspectors #general (IG) without providing Congress with the required 30 day notice or details on cause for dismissal.

The courts, responding to an appeal from multiple secretaries of state, fulfilled their role on Thursday.
Senior U.S. District Judge John Coughenour, appointed by President Reagan, was unequivocal in his dismissal of that executive order:
“I’ve been on the bench for over four decades, I can’t remember another case where the question presented is as clear as this one is. This is a #blatantly #unconstitutional order… I have difficulty understanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocally that this is a constitutional order. It just boggles my mind.”

#Vancouver #lawyer Kyla Lee:
“I was shocked to see the post. It is #blatantly #discriminatory & blatantly contrary to the provisions of the B.C. #HumanRights Code,” she says. “As a lawyer, I can't imagine that anybody who posted an ad like that was familiar with the laws in B.C. surrounding #discrimination & #tenancy .”
A person responding to a cellphone number on the posting says they #DontRegret the original phrasing in the #OnlineAd
