Having convinced themselves that Democrats will cream President Trump next year thanks to ballot harvesting, the left has moved to remove the last obstacle to their total control of our country, which was a constitutional republic until January 20, 2021’s installation of Biden in the White House.
Very aptly put. It is clear that the originalists on the court are about to slap the regulatory state around a bit, and their attempts to threaten them probably just makes the 6-3 majority more firm, and forces their liberal compatriots to join them, as the left wingers on the court have as many "ethics" issues as any of them.
There are a number of cases percolating around out there that Alito or Thomas or Gorsuch could use to rule Congress does not have the authority to transfer their law making authority to the executive branch. If Congress chooses to not make a rule, the executive branch cannot do so in their stead.
That will drive the bureaucracy crazy. Next, we need to significantly reduce civil service rules, so that more of the administrative state can be fired by a new president.
In addition to your “reform” ideas I’d like to see agency regulations subject to a sunset law that require Congress and the President to review and renew them every few years.
Nope, a sunset law that requires they whither away and are gone for a minimum of five years before any legislation can be introduced to restore them unless they are mandated in the Constitution.
For constitutionally required positions, require they be scrubbed every three years. Do it like the senate, class A in 2024. Class B in 2025. Class C in 2026. Class A goes to the trash heap again in 2027.
Spot on. Sent my congresscritter much the same. No reply. Through the years I have learned lots of things. Unfortunately, being ghosted was not one of them. A simple sod off swampy would suffice.
Ex: I walk up to you and say Hi I’m PM. You turn around and walk away. Shame on your parents.
I find it revealing that the same people who are worried about a house that Clarence Thomas sold to his friend (a house he only had a third ownership of if I'm remembering correctly) and a trip he took with said friend don't worry about how Pelosi and her other half managed to accumulate $130 million on a "public servant's" salary, Hunter Biden got on the board at Burisma, or Fauci somehow became a multimillionaire over night by investing in certain stocks.
If Thomas concerns you but none of the rest of that does, then I really don't want to hear it. And "oversight" of the court will lead to selective harassment of judges with "disfavored" views. That's a given. So, no.
If anybody thinks that after all the evil, all the deaths, all the murders, thefts, mutilations and harm in every way conceivable (and inconceivable) that the D-Rats have perpetrated on this country, they are going to leave power in 2024 and say ‘Hey thanks peeps it’s been a slice, see ya in 4’, you are I submit, delusional!
They are not,but the Dems like the Chinese are playing the long game. Brainwash youth. Dumb down education, destroy industry innovation institutions and the military. Then wait for those over 50 and gun toting Americans to die. Viola! Transformation of America complete: without a civil war.
So, just thinking out loud here, you think they’ll just kinda go along with it when their comrades, political apparatchiks and friends start wearing orange (and worse) and the trials begin they’re going to tell them ‘way to take one for the team’ kids?
I do. It is not 1765 with the Stamp Tax. Americans are now lazy and comfortable. In any civil uprising each side knows their enemy. But Americas enemies don’t wear redcoats, blue or gray. Enmity is stirred up by outside forces (China Russia Iran Internet trolls etc). Food riots and hyperinflation will start chaos, but like Germany in 23, the forces at play are evil and organized and the results may be far worse. When elections are blatantly stolen, and no one says a word, when American protesters are locked up without a day in court, when a clearly mentally challenged puppet is placed in office(s), America that we know is in Trouble. The left is organized and waiting to fight, the right is Balkanized and in disarray. I am with you in spirit but see no George Pattons around.
Sotomayor received over $3 million for her books from Penguin Random House. In a case which Penguin was involved before SCOTUS where the company stood to lose money she did not revise herself. Clarence Thomas crime?
I believe the term "ballot harvesting" is sugar coating the reality. Whether it's ballot harvesting, early voting, late voting, mail-in voting, etc.; it should be called what it really is, election fraud.
Excellent article Poca’s historian and national treasure! Your writings are historical fact! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 We all appreciate you! More will come to appreciate you as you continue to reveal the works of the devil through the communist left’s lies, law breaking, hypocrisy, threats, attempted murders, and flat out treason and sedition! They MUST be stopped! Praise God for the courage of the conservative justices!
"Praise God for the courage of the conservative justices!"
Praise God, indeed - but let's see if Kavanaugh, and Barrett can hold up, stand firm, and deliver. Don't count CJR, windsock extraordinaire, to have a spine or stand on principle.
RBG was the best gift we Con’s could have hoped for. Who knew her vainglorious-ness should keep her in that position well past her ‘Best Before’ date, even though it was obvious to all (including her if she was that smart) that she was clearly ‘circling the drain’.
Her selfishness allowed us a 6-3 advantage (on paper at least) with Barrett’s ascent.
Now what to do with Robert’s. My suggestion, Tell him we know he’s queer and he can stop being blackmailed by the D-Rats. Now get to work!
Bless You! That was the kindest think on the matter I believe one could have!
I still think she was there for the most selfish of reasons. She knew (because it’s inconceivable that she wasn’t reminded) that if she ‘retired’ with a D-rat in the WH there was every reason to believe they could get another progressive on the bench but…
All of this is being fed by various skunk works financed by leftist billionaires with no accountability whatsoever. They may have high sounding purposes with 501(c)(3) charity status which the IRS knows not to investigate. Guys like O'Keefe occasionally drop bombs on them but the MSM never reports anything he finds so there is no traction.
I know that conservative media outlets are far and few between, but what is left should not only be going after Biden and other communists in the government, but many so-called RINO's had better unfuck themselves and realize what is about to happen is the demise of our country. Call a spade a spade folks, cuz there is no going back now. Please take a moment and send an email or a letter to these whores like Chuck Schumer or Mr. "Shit in his pants" Jerry Nadler. It only takes a moment.
Don, you say what all of us who can think, do think, but better than we could say it. And you’re on a one liner roll lately.
“In DC, where there is smoke, there is dry ice from the CIA and the FBI.” - beauty.
It’s not clear how much more Commie battering the old Republic can take, but surely not much.
We are in a war, but only one side is fighting, and it’s the wrong side. We don’t have a principled group of leaders to do the right thing.
Everybody knows where this is headed, but we seem unable to pull the switch to avert the crash. This was frustrating twenty years ago, desperate 10 years ago. I don’t have a word for how I feel now. History will not look kindly upon us if we let this country die.
Once again you are directly over the target! Wasn't the definition of a crying shame was a bus load of attorneys going over a cliff with a couple of empty seats. The projection ism of the Dimocrats is nothing but outstanding. We're called Nazi's, bigots, rascist, everything for so gd long it's like water running off a ducks back, it does't matter any longer. With all thats transpired over the last several years it's all been planned. Don't look over here, look over there. Everyone of the cabinet secretaries is only more outrageous, more stupid and more incompetent than the next. It was ole puddin' pants himself that said they've put together the absolute bestest cheating scandal ever, yeah he won from the basement, let that sink in. Nothing has changed, red wave to come in '22 was a shart at best. '24 going to be any different? When in the last 50 years has anyone seen this number of train derailments? Courts don't want to look at anything. Nothing to see here move on. Yeah it is a government for the government by the government. It's only more congressional inquiries etc etc etc. Meet the new boss same as the old boss. It's gonna be ugly and it's coming quicker than you realize!
Don thank you for todays post as this brings into view and focus the fungus that has been growing for a few years and speedily accelerated this year.We know the left has no moral or ethical code to guide them so hang on even as it gets out the wise latina is tainted the most.Keep hammering my friend .
You have to fight fire with fire. Non-leftists need to start filing complaints against bureaucrats for anything and everything including accusing them of bias, racism, etc. And here's why: bureaucrats live for promotions as it's the only way they can get paid more money but the catch is they won't promote someone who has multiple complaints against them as the other peons will moan and groan thus disrupting an already grossly inefficient ship. More complaints means more low-level bureaucrats who will eventually become the tipping point where the wheels fall off of the whole shebang.
Well, the first Soros' domino (is that racist?) fell: St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner finally had enough pressure and is resigning rather than face the numerous charges brought against her.
"the real force behind Democrat efforts to eliminate the court is the post-Trump court’s willingness to take the deep state on. That is why West Virginia v. EPA was a bigger case than Dobbs because the court told the deep state NO!"
Exactly. That is it. The four wealthiest counties in America surround Sodom on Potomac and it needs to stop.
This may be your most important piece, Don. People still call Palin a coward for resigning, it is unbelievable how misinformed people are.
This country is in deep doo-doo at the moment and the only way to get out of it is to re-elect Donald Trump by a convincing margin, and give him an unassailable majority in both houses of Congress. Even then cleaning up the Deep State will take more than one four year term.
I agree with you Dennis and would add that they need to pass legislation that will reign in civil service; plus a law getting rid of unions in the government period. Full Stop.
These two laws will help put the brakes on the deep state.
“Readers must understand that we now have a government of the government by the government and for the government.”
WE DO!

Ever notice that when the branches of government begin to bicker, each branch scurries to the Constitution to shore up its independent powers?
Makes me giddy and eternally grateful to the brilliant men who wrote our Constitution.
Spot on. Sent my congresscritter much the same. No reply. Through the years I have learned lots of things. Unfortunately, being ghosted was not one of them. A simple sod off swampy would suffice.
Ex: I walk up to you and say Hi I’m PM. You turn around and walk away. Shame on your parents.
Yes! That's how I shared this piece.
I find it revealing that the same people who are worried about a house that Clarence Thomas sold to his friend (a house he only had a third ownership of if I'm remembering correctly) and a trip he took with said friend don't worry about how Pelosi and her other half managed to accumulate $130 million on a "public servant's" salary, Hunter Biden got on the board at Burisma, or Fauci somehow became a multimillionaire over night by investing in certain stocks.

It is scary that this republic is hanging on by a thread. Right now, it is the Supreme Court and a few true conservatives in congress.
We need to primary the RINOs in congress, get involved in state and local gubment and learn to stuff ballot boxes.
We have a republic in name only. SCOTUS failed the republic in 2020.
And with the pressure SCOTUS is under from the Democrats, it may keep failing the republic until it is no more.
Amen Brother… but even that sounds like you think we’re going to be able to vote (even creatively) our way out of this!
Agreed. Let's get to the inevitable and settle this for the next few generations.
If anybody thinks that after all the evil, all the deaths, all the murders, thefts, mutilations and harm in every way conceivable (and inconceivable) that the D-Rats have perpetrated on this country, they are going to leave power in 2024 and say ‘Hey thanks peeps it’s been a slice, see ya in 4’, you are I submit, delusional!

True, but they stick together and play to win. They also play the log game. Losing with honour is no longer an option.
Or maybe we get out there and stand at every ballot box with our ammo box...
Sotomayor received over $3 million for her books from Penguin Random House. In a case which Penguin was involved before SCOTUS where the company stood to lose money she did not revise herself. Clarence Thomas crime?
It looks like she may be the leaker of the Dobbs decision, based on what I have read. Yes, the wide Latina.
I believe the term "ballot harvesting" is sugar coating the reality. Whether it's ballot harvesting, early voting, late voting, mail-in voting, etc.; it should be called what it really is, election fraud.
True - but our side needs to do it better than the Democrat wing of the UniParty (U-Pfizer) if we're to have even half a chance.

Such a wealth of info to comment on Don.

Maybe R.B.G. was not a fan of ozero and bidet and thus did not retire?
Bless You! That was the kindest think on the matter I believe one could have!
I still think she was there for the most selfish of reasons. She knew (because it’s inconceivable that she wasn’t reminded) that if she ‘retired’ with a D-rat in the WH there was every reason to believe they could get another progressive on the bench but…
Ok..Book her!

Lawfare can bankrupt you, which was what Palin would have faced.
Yep, my company tried pushing back on the FTC 10 years ago and we found the government has unlimited resources, unfortunately.
