“Notice what the Constitution authorizes: Congress may accept cessions from states to form a District. It does not authorize Congress to return, retrocede, or give away territory once accepted”
Read ARTICLE IV., SECTION 3
“dispose of...the territory...”
I hope Trump does it. He has nothing to lose
Give Arlington back. The commies there deserve to be part of the mess that is DC and off the Va voter rolls.
How quaint.
Some folks still believe the laws are based on the written Constitution, rather than the interpreted judgement of the Supreme Court.
Nowadays, the Constitution says what the USSCOTUS says it says. 😵💫
No. Aside from the central district where the capital is located, the rest of DC should be returned to Maryland. We need to make sure DC is never made a state with 2 senators.
They complain about not having representation in congress; solve it by making them part of Maryland. Not a state of their own, as Democrats promise to do once they regain power.
the argument here is very weak
the idea that one congress can bind future congresses from ever revoking an action of theirs is nonsense.
If a democrat congress passed a law saying “annual contributions from the US government to planned parenthood shall be ‘permanent’ “
would you say, “well we have no choice but to submit to that law”
Of course not
I say we give DC Loudon, Fairfax and Arlington counties from Virginia. Its the right thing to do.
reminds me of the musical 1776 when john adams throws down his notes and yells ‘oh for the love of....we have to offend SOMEBODY!’
Including those genocided, every group had been railroaded...hard. In the name of Jesus Christ, MOVE ON!
Unless you are siding with satan, in which case, of course, you will continue.....like here....
That would be Hilarious!
This doesn’t even rank in the top one thousand of my political concerns.
