Garvan Walshe: America’s military leaders are ready to resist illegal orders from the country’s rogue President. How has it come to this?

Trump seems to be modelling himself on Richard Nixon. But he’s more like segregationalist George Wallace.

Rebecca Coulson: Watch Trump like a hawk. Focus on the essentials. Judges should restrain him, women should sue him.
