        This chieftain* created secret police out of whole cloth without constitutional justification. That does sort of give opponents pause when trying to figure out how to effectively fight back.

        *A friend of mine coined this derogatory use of the word years ago, in reference to the easiest difficulty of Civilization games being Chieftain.
