To the Editor:

Martin, it surprises me that, after Trump’s first 60 days, you still don’t recognize that his true motives are not to serve
the People, but rather to create - with shock, awe, and resulting chaos - an oligarchy, to enforce unitary power as outlined
in P2025, and to seek revenge on people who disagree with him. Trump has said, “I alone can fix it,” and he meant without
any Constitutional “balance of power” from the Legislative or Judicial Branches, as he is demonstrating in the deportation
case before US District Judge Boasberg and on appeal in that court.

Chief Justice Roberts rebuked Trump’s AG and DOJ lawyers for their “inappropriate” and ahistorical remarks about impeaching
Judge Boasberg, originally appointed to a lower court by GW Bush and elevated by Obama (confirmation vote 96-0), and a
former Chief Judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. When Boasberg asked very basic questions of the AG and
WH attorneys about their failure to comply with his temporary restraining order (TRO) against the deportation, their answer
was essentially, ”We’re not going to tell you, Judge.” “It’s a national security secret.” AG Pam Bondi then arrogantly and
unwisely instructed the Judge how he should have handled the case.

In a ruling last week, Boasberg noted that the law upon which the WH relies, the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 “AEA”), last used
in the shameful internment of Japanese following Pearl Harbor, was only meant to be used when there was a “declared war or
when there was an invasion or predatory incursion by a hostile nation or government”, i.e., an imminent emergency. No
declared war, no individualized fact-finding hearings, no Due Process though each plaintiff vehemently denied being a member
of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang.

US Circuit Judge Patricia Millett, who heard the appeal of the WH to dismiss Judge Boasberg’s TRO against the deportation
said that, “Nazis got better treatment under the AEA than has happened here.”

This case is the first to determine whether “our flag is still there.” Trump insists that only he has authority over his own
presidential actions, a claim which is clearly denied by the Constitution. FYI: both Presidents GW Bush and Barack Obama
were overruled by District Court Judges several times and complied, but then they didn’t lust to be tyrants.

Sorry, Martin. There is no cable host I respect less than Mark Levin, with the possible exceptions of Fox’s Jesse Watters
and Greg Gutfeld, and the disgraced Tucker Carlson. Levin scored the highest level of “outrage” in a study measuring
incendiary discourse on talk radio. Of the 10 contestants, Levin was deemed the host who “most helped to legitimize the use
of uncivil discourse” in American politics, with his “penchant for hysteria.” There’s already enough poo flowing without
bathing in that clown’s dirty water.
