It looks like this whole checks and balances thing works. However, Dahlia Lithwick notes that the Supreme Court may not be enough:

The administration isn’t really asking for constitutional blank checks. Why should it, when the president thinks he has his own constitutional Swiss bank account?

In other words, if the President doesn’t care what they say, does this do us any good in the short run?

update:Lithwick’s colleague Walter Dellinger tries to reassure her.
