We never have seen anything like this.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His ticked off examples of what he called President Donald Trump&#8217;s lawless conduct include revoking birthright citizenship, freezing federal spending, shutting down an agency, removing leaders of other agencies, firing government employees subject to civil service protections and threatening to deport people based on their political views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The distinctive feature of the current situation, several legal scholars said, is its chaotic flood of activity that collectively amounts to a radically new conception of presidential power. But the volume and speed of those actions may overwhelm and thus thwart sober and measured judicial consideration,&#8221; noted the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It will take some time, though perhaps only weeks, for a challenge to one of Trump&#8217;s actions to reach the Supreme Court. So far he has not openly flouted lower court rulings temporarily halting some of his initiatives, and it remains to be seen whether he would defy a ruling against him by the justices, it added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK, Feb. 10 (Xinhua) &#8212;
