That is to say, the administration is testing the extent to which the DHS (and other executive agencies) can act and ignore orders from the other branches of government. This is as serious as it can possibly get: all of the arguments about whether order X or Y is unconstitutional mean nothing if elements of the government are executing them and the courts are being ignored.

Yesterday was the trial balloon for a coup d’état against the United States. It gave them useful information.

Being the eternal pragmatist, I'm taking everything he said and just taking it down a level or two. I don't however think he's wrong.

I don't see America coming out of any of this as a winner.

This article however, minus the sensationalism, seems like pretty accurate description of how the immediate future is going to play out, more or less.
