Two major constitutional concerns demand attention this week. Courts are actively litigating the legality of Trump's National Guard deployments across multiple jurisdictions, with significant questions about executive authority and federalism at stake, while the State Department's pause on immigrant visas for 75 countries represents a sweeping restriction on immigration processing that raises due process and statutory compliance questions. These developments occur amid a dense information environment dominated by 15 competing narratives—ranging from threats to invoke the Insurrection Act and military deployment in Minnesota, to Pentagon directives on military publication editorial standards, to international tensions over Greenland and Arctic positioning—that collectively fragment public attention from the constitutional questions at the center of governance.
