The Supreme Court has already said no to using federal treaty power as a backdoor to effectively expand the federal government's constitutionally limited powers.
"The obvious and decisive answer to this, of course, is that no agreement with a foreign nation can confer power on the Congress, or on any other branch of Government, which is free from the restraints of the Constitution." —Reid v. Covert, 1957.

Insights welcome.

Patriots are reminded that they must vote twice this election year. Your first vote is to primary career RINO incumbents. Your second vote is to replace outgoing Democrats and RINOs with Trump-endorsed patriot candidates.

Again, insights welcome.

To: Amendment10

I believe the sense of that ruling is that these are de facto treaties and have to be approved by the Senate. Elections matter....
