Mainstream media must have a special thesaurus with "weasel words" that they consult for headlines.

"Challenging"??

"Challenging" must come up when the right word should be "eviscerating" or "destroying" or "corrupting."

How Trump is challenging America’s judicial system during his second term

America’s judicial system is undergoing one of its most consequential stress tests as President Trump pushes the limits of executive power and strains the system of checks and balances. A year into his second term, we're returning to guests from our On Democracy series. Geoff Bennett discussed the administration challenging the authority of judges with constitutional law professor Steve Vladeck.
