We are at the tipping point..but not too late, I don’t think...
My feeling is the only thing that can right the ship at this point is state sovereignty re-exerting itself. Fast and powerfully.
Every State Attorney General should have multiple constitutional boundary cases against the Federal government going right now instead of silently watching the system collapse. We have a SCOTUS make-up right now that I think would lean heavily to the states and strip power away from the Federal government.
State vs Federal is as much a “balance of powers” as is the separation between Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches.
