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:

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

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

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
