Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited. None to regulate agricultural production is given, and therefore legislation by Congress for that purpose is forbidden [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
If Trump wants to keep some of these agencies then he needs to do the following. He needs to work with Congress and the states to see if the states would be willing to ratify appropriate amendments to the Constitution to justify federal agencies that he wants to keep.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November 18 !
Since Trump entered the 16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the 18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist justices off of the bench.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February 18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitutions Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal governments powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal governments limited powers listed above.
Ben Garrison helped get Trump elected. His cartoons were spot on.
Who is the dark haired guy in the photo. I have seen him in several pics.

“Trump will sign more executive orders this morning imposing God’s will on the country”
Fixed it.
And that is what scares the liberals. He’s not a politician that makes empty campaign promises and excuses for not implementing them, he is a man that means what he says.
LOVE Garrison’s work !
I am SO stealing this....
Schumer IS an ass.
Period.
He is not imposing his will on the country
He is imposing the country’s will on its government
MAGA
Ping, may be of interest to you.
