The Power of the Executive
“The power of the Executive to cast a man
into prison without formulating any charge
known to the law, and particularly to deny
him the judgement of his peers, is in the
highest degree odious, and is the foundation
of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or
Communist.”
Winston Churchill |
