Joe Biden for authoritarian

Apparently, some terribly misguided law professors think that Joe Biden has the authority to ignore the Supreme Court rulings if he doesn't like them. Apparently, these misguided professsors think that Joe Biden is a dictator, not a president. Jonathan Turley didn't let them off easy, writing "I shall resist any illegal federal court order.'" Prof. Turley then used another quote that said "When 'the Court’s interpretation of the Constitution is egregiously wrong,' the president should refuse to follow it."

Then Prof. Turley gave these professors a history lesson, writing "Those two statements were made roughly 60 years apart. The first is from segregationist Alabama Gov. George Wallace (D). The second was made by two liberal professors this month. In one of the most chilling developments in our history, the left has come to embrace the authoritarian language and logic of segregationists in calling for defiance and radical measures against the Supreme Court."

It's time to admit that these misguided professors have ripped their masks off to reveal their true identities. It's time to admit that's who today's far-left is. It's impossible to find common ground with misguided Marxists like "Harvard law professor Mark Tushnet and San Francisco State University political scientist Aaron Belkin." The Constitution doesn't give presidents the authority to ignore a co-equal branch of government, in this instance the Judicial Branch.

Then there's this:

However, even if these measures were popular, it would not make them right. It is precisely what segregationists such as Sen. James Eastland (D-Miss.) argued, that "all the people of the South are in favor of segregation. And Supreme Court or no Supreme Court, we are going to maintain segregated schools."

Tushnet and Belkin cite with approval Biden’s declaration that this is "not a normal Supreme Court." Biden’s view of normalcy appears to be a court that agrees with his fluid view of constitutional law, by which he can forgive roughly a half of trillion dollars in loans or impose a national eviction moratorium without a vote of Congress.

Biden is right in that this isn't a normal Supreme Court. It's a court that doesn't think the Constitution gave the Court the authority to act as a legislature. It's a court that doesn't think the Constitution gave presidents the authority to become authoritarians. This Supreme Court doesn't think that the Constitution gave the Legislative Branch the authority to do things that are assigned to the Executive branch.

This is worth fighting for:

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
