@tg Hi! I’m just getting started with Current and have hit a sticking point. Maybe it was explained during onboarding but what does it mean to “release” an article?

Chris EspinosaFive rears ago today, the Executive Branch sought to nullify the Constitutional powers of the Legislature.
We thought, at the end of that day, that it had failed.
Five years later its success is complete. Congress does not exercise the power of the purse, nor the authority over war, nor oversight of the Executive, nor the power to impeach.
