"The main aim of the slave states was to block federal power—via the rule of the democratic majority—to take measures to limit or end slavery, and to prevent its westward expansion. From the very beginning, the southern slave states insisted on the national government relinquishing as much power to the states as possible—and to give them the power to block federal actions binding on the entire United States." #USpolitics #USConstitution #Slavery https://www.savageminds.co/p/slavery-states-rights-and-american

“The written Constitution is for the public. It is a feint, designed to distract the unserious from the much more important Constitution that exists exclusively as ideological vapor circulating around conservative legal thought.” #scotus #birthrightcitizenship #14thAmendment #USConstitution #ruleoflaw https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/the-us-constitution-is-for-simple-folk-still-burdened-by-the-belief-that-words-have-meaning

“Given the devotion of Trump’s cult in Congress, there’s no way an impeachment effort will end with the removal of the president. Do it anyway. The rule of law is meaningless if you only take it up when it’s easy.” #Politics #USPolitics #ImpeachTrump #ImpeachNoem #ImpeachTheEntireTrumpRegime #ImpeachmentNow #USConstitution #USCongress https://newrepublic.com/post/205118/case-impeaching-trump-venezuela-ice
