Not really.
But I think the president is too powerful... not Trump, but the office, and I would like to see everyone and their mother take a crack at it until the Commander in Chief is relegated to his office, pushing pencils and being an administrator to the MIC. Not even making decisions about who we are attacking. Not having press conferences and trying to manage policy. Just administrating.
I also think the FBI is too powerful, so I am hoping they have to air some home truths as well. Take a crack at Lynch, take a crack at Comey, put the whole lot in their place.

The Office of the POTUS is too powerful. We talked about this at DCF. I said one of my big wishes was for Trump to get elected, Trump pisses off Congress and Congress rebalances power.
Congress has taken at least one measure to limits the Presidents power, in the case of sanctions over Russia.

However, these villainous scum pass an amendment to a law, that upholds a previous presidents Executive Order, while limiting another President. Which is utter bullshit. It's not real, it's as one Senator said on the floor, getting a piece of Trumps hide; certainly not limiting the Presidents power in perpetuity.
In short order if we could do one thing in Congress, it would be to get rid of the Gang of Eight. The Gang of Eight is not good for us, gives power intended for all of Congress to a few, and elevates the power of the Intel Community.
Seems congress is attempting to do their jobs now that they're afraid of the WH.
The house appropriations committee adopted this amendment into the DoD appropriations markup.

Won't go anywhere, this provision was put into the paperwork during a finance request... the request should have been out of order, and because of that if this will die where it started...

And now one is apparently trying to repeal the use of force authorization, and the hacks come crawling out to bitch and moan and talk about how terrible Democrats are. Quelle fucking surprise.

Use a different phrase and read the novel to learn how ironic it sounds the way you use it.

No, really. You should read the novel. It has some bearing on earlier discussions.

I don't read a lot of Sci-Fi, but I will keep an eye out for it next time I hit up the ol' Friends of the Library book sale.
Man, I was ginnin' up for a shouting match, and then it got all civil.
