Convention of States bump!

Beginning to think this is the only way left to go, outside of armed rebellion.

Convention of states = more laws the judiciary can legislate away, the executive can ignore, and legislative can pork barrel into obscurity.

I suspect both measures will go together. This Washington government will not permit such a Convention or will not permit such a convention’s results to be enacted. The arrival at the point where such a convention is required is also the point where the Constitution itself has been retired, superseded or otherwise nullified and such Convention being a provision of the Constitution will be nullified right along with the parent document.

It could work. Wouldn’t a few well-placed constitutional amendments rock the Uniparty’s little world. As would some carefully chosen “state nullification” of federal regulations. If Obola can thumb his nose at the Constitution, states can thumb their nose at Fedgov. Why not? Same principle.

A Convention will lead to armed conflict either as rebellion or as pre-emptive supression or both. The Imperial Party will not permit a Convention.
