Beyond the Polls with Henry Olsen

Norm-busting vs. Lawbreaking with Yuval Levin

One hears of our constitutional crisis often enough nowadays that an observer of American politics might wonder what we'll say if the event comes to pass. This week, Henry enlists AEI's Yuval Levin to identify and account for the pent-up tensions in a system designed to restrain ambitious rulers. The duo hammer out the roles of independent agencies in a government limited to three branches; stress test the originally unanticipated dilemma of congressional pliancy; and consult the schematic on the executive's authority over impoundment, rescission, tariffs and treaties.

Tune in for a commute-friendly masterclass on Constitutional authority in the era of DOGE and EOs.
