This is also a huge relief today. I am deeply grateful that our judiciary is doing a good job of stopping egregious power grabs, both in our state and nation. And with the excellent reporting by The NY Times, the Wall Street Journal, and especially the Washington Post this week, I am comforted that our media is fulfilling its role as a strong Fourth Estate, holding the politicians accountable. While I still have strong concerns about what Trump and Bannon are trying to do, our system of checks and balances is showing itself to be strong and functioning.
