This remains a fair amount of media framing as well. I have tried to emphasize that the constitutional crisis began the moment it became clear that this executive branch has no internal account of its legal constraints, only an account of what it can get away with. That was in January.
my semi-serious take is that Barret and other conservatives on the Supreme Court won't think it's a crisis until the President does something directly to the Supreme Court, ie it's not a constitutional crisis until it's at MY doorstep, who cares what the executive is doing to the other institutions.
