Presidential power of removal and constitutional limits
The speech argues that a law violating the Constitution is not a law and discusses the President's duty not to enforce unconstitutional acts. It traces removal power to the President, cites Supreme Court opinions, and recalls historic practice from Washington to Lincoln on executive authority and department organization.

Groesbeck’s compelling argument shifts Senate mood
The Post voices praise for Mr Groesbeck’s address as a masterly, concise defense that sways Republican senators. It notes the broad reaction in Northern local elections, especially in New York and New Jersey, and highlights Michigan’s dramatic Democratic gains as evidence of a national political shift toward the Constitution and Union.
