I’m concerned that many patriots have actually never been taught the Constitution as the Founding States had intended for it to be understood, particularly the federal government’s limited powers. And if such is the case, then low-information patriots are arguably just wanting to gind the ax in frustration with respect to talk amending the Constitution as a remedy to force the feds back into their constitutionally-limited power cage.

In other words, patriots need to elect conservatives to Congress who will impeach activist justices and Constitution-ignoring presidents as opposed to the overkill, imo, of amending the Constitution; if it’s not broke then don’t “fix” it.

On the other hand, if patriots “just gotta” amend the Constitution, then simply give the state lawmakers and / or voters the power to recall bad-apple federal lawmakers regardless what state elected them.

I believe we should amend the constitution, in part! to expressly prohibit judicial review. And that will take care of the feral judge problem. Permanently.
