This study, by Anthony Lewis, a former reporter and columnist for the New York Times and Pulitzer prize-winning author, provides an insightful examination of several precedent-breaking actions by the Department of Justice.

His reporting of these events provides a much needed roadmap of the route we have taken, while enriching public understanding of how much is at stake.
