.@RBReich called for SCOTUS to “declare all legislation and executive actions of a presidency unauthorized by the Constitution to be null and void, as if Trump had never been elected.”
Um, that sounds like what fascists would do.

To this day, Stephen F. Cohen, a Russia scholar married to The Nation’s editor, @KatrinaNation, dismissively refers to the Mueller investigation as “Russiagate.” stoehr.substack.com/p/trump-expose…
But Russia isn’t the only fault line. So is gender. Case in point is @rkuttnerwrites. stoehr.substack.com/p/trump-expose…

Bloomberg saw a draft of the address. It does not indicate emergency powers.
Serious Republican pushback against idea of invoking war powers. For instance: Senator John Cornyn, a Texas Republican, said the standoff over funding the wall “is an imminently solvable problem.”
Key point: Admin appears to believe SCOTUS will bail out POTUS and if it doesn't, the Republican base will blame SCOTUS.

1. Odds are the president is going to go on television tonigh to announce that he’s going to agree to reopen the government after 17 days of closure while simultaneously invoking national emergency powers allowing him to bypass Congress to start building a wall on the border.
2. If this happens, and it’s still an if, you’re going to hear plenty of people react in ways that range from concern to alarm to fear to outright panic. Some will accuse Donald Trump of trying to be an American dictator.
3. Others will argue, I think correctly, that the president is abusing the constitutional powers of his office, reinforcing the claim that he’s unfit to rule and sending him one further step toward removal.

1. @billscher touches a conventional wisdom that I keep chewing on. "Loyalists always seem satisfied ... so long as he is fighting. Winning has been secondary." I said the same two weeks ago, but the longer this shutdown goes on, the more I think the wall really matters.
2, If fighting were all that mattered, he would have caved already, no? If the wall really matters, then this could go on for a long--long--time. I guess we'll see.
Lately, I always profit from reading @billscher. You should too. politico.com/magazine/story…

1. At risk of being one of many to wrongly predict what Mueller is up to, I make this observations based on circumstantial evidence in public record to report that I think something big is coming. First, past four days Trump is shuttered in the White House with just a cell phone.
2. Second, the #SCOTUS CJ Roberts ordered (we presume Mueller's Govt team) to respond to the secret Grand Jury case stay he granted by Dec. 31 at noon. They did it three days early. I think this case may be the Rosneft bribe reported in the Steele dossier. Trump knows if it is. Docket excerpt from Grand Jury case in SCOTUSExcerpt of Steele dossier
3. Finally, case I'm watching at SCOTUS that I think may remove Whitaker as AAG is teed up to discuss in conference on January 11. I have reported extensively on this including detailed analysis of legislative history. IMO #SCOTUS must declare Whitaker to be former DOJ employee. Whitaker cert petition motion to declare not AG case docket.

So #Trump is holding a news conference in about five minutes. I’ll be watching (and probably tweeting). Follow/mute at will!
Okay, #Trump has started speaking. He's already slurring. He's already made a joke about "a lot of......MEDIA.".

This does not bode well.
#Trump is now saying that China wants to "see me lose an election because they've never been challenged before."

It's not just China, pal.

Trump: #Kavanaugh’s never had even a little blemish. I have great faith in the Senate and their process. If it [confirmation] has to be delayed a little, then it will be. Feinstein had this information and didn’t bring it up. It should’ve been brought up a long time ago. #SCOTUS
GOP @SenatorCollins: #Kavanaugh was emphatic in denying sexual assault allegations. Obviously if he lied about it, it would be disqualifying.
“Disqualifying”—Susan Collins is the first Senate Republican to say the word out loud: “Obviously if Judge Kavanaugh has lied about what happened, that would be disqualifying.” He should obviously withdraw, but that’s a precedent Trump might have to follow
