TALKING FEDS Substack with Harry Litman is a series of dispatches from the front of a constitution in crisis; Litman explains how the maneuvers of Trump and his circle transgress constitutional norms and threaten national security and the rule of law.

Though this Substack newsletter is not about cities or places, Harry Litman is one of the most astute observers of the legal scene today and I read him regularly.
