OK. Credit where due. Joe Biden handled the demand of the hot heads in his party for court packing deftly, creating a commission and appointing to it some sensible liberals and even a few distinguished conservatives. Well played, Mr. President.https://t.co/sefND6vU35

The Case for State Nullification
2/ Democrats circle the wagons around Dem president. Then a Republican is elected. He oversteps, citing previous Dem. Republicans, forgetting what they said about the Dem president, circle the wagons. Democrats, forgetting what they said, cry foul. Executive power keeps growing.

A Critique of Common Good Constitutionalism
Exactly! Common good constitutionalism invites barking mad judges of right and left to indulge their own theocratic or far-left fantasies. https://t.co/ULPLjDnwnD

Not sure if I could agree with this either.

Expansion of the Reach of the DS
Very relatedly: Dems united with only 3 dissenters (@IlhanMN, @CoriBush and @AyannaPressley, who voted with GOP) to approve a $2 billion increase for the Capitol Police, which is now *opening offices in multiple states & becoming an intelligence agency*.https://t.co/hLc40UqYxP

A Straussian Fantasy
The U.S. Constitution’s letter gives nearly all powers of government to the states, and reserves unmentioned ones “to the people.” Surely that includes powers over bathrooms, marriages, who competes with whom in sports, etc. It certainly includes power over elections. Customarily, we have regarded counties and cities purely as legal creatures of the states, enjoying only such autonomy as the states may concede. Though a federal statute granting broad autonomy over such matters to the states’ constituted sub-units and giving enough likeminded people the power to form units that enjoy such autonomy would run against more than a century of court decisions, it finds no barrier in the Constitution’s letter. Congress and the president can do this.
"The oligarchy that annihilated or perverted the American Republic’s institutions rules not simply to secure privileged access to wealth. It is equally, if not principally preoccupied with crushing the way of life of whoever are not its members or clients..." - Angelo Codevilla

John Finnis on the Unconstitutionality of Abortion

Imperial Statists Will Continue Doing Their Thing
Your either bring back the political agreement, or people will start making their own.
— Michael Krieger (@LibertyBlitz) February 1, 2021
For example, family, neighborhood, Colorado, Bitcoin, etc.
Ultimately, the above is where we’re headed because empires don’t reform.
Localism + decentralization is the future.

"This is Conservatism"
Just as Mike Pence faithfully did his duty on Jan. 6, 2021, Joe Biden faithfully did his on Jan. 6, 2017. This should be remembered. He gaveled down Democratic objectors (Reps. Rayapal, Raskin, McGovern, Lee, others) to certification of the electoral vote. https://t.co/Qsl3askWxS
