Sorry to intrude here...but This was today 2nd Division Vet....Cruz had on his twitter sight to give us all a heads up that they’ll be doing this ....thought you might get a thread up for it....their decision will have far reaching results....I couldn’t remember who puts up the SCOTUS threads....

“The Supreme Court can use a soap-opera case ‘to stop federal overreach”

...By Senator Ted Cruz, Published: November 4

When the U.S. Supreme Court hears oral argument Tuesday in Bond v. United States, the fundamental issues will be U.S. sovereignty and the Constitution’s structural limits on federal power.

The questions raised by this case go to the heart of our constitutional system: Does the federal government, through the treaty power, have authority to trump our system of federalism and separation of powers? Does the president’s power to make treaties and Congress’s power to implement treaties have unlimited reach?

The answer to both should be an emphatic no.

And so what? They could admit responsibility for the holocaust, the starvation of the Ukranians and the genocide of the Armenians in 1915 and their supporters would only shed additional tears of admiration and joy.

What does he know? He was only the primary editor of the law review at Harvard Law School, where he graduated magna cum laude and was founding editor of the Harvard Latino Law Review, the Attorney General of our largest contiguous state, and served as a law clerk to J. Michael Luttig of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and William Rehnquist, Chief Justice of the United States in 1996 as the first Hispanic ever to clerk for a Chief Justice of the United States and assembled the Bush legal team, devised strategy, and drafted pleadings for filing with the Supreme Court of Florida and U.S. Supreme Court, the specific case being Bush v. Gore, during the 2000 Florida presidential recounts, leading to two successful decisions for the Bush team. What's that compared to community organizing, getting your wife a sweetheart, do-nothing $350K job and giving up your Illinois law license under a cloud?

The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree...I just listened to his father speak at a rally tonight on video....without even a single glance at any notes he spoke with “thunder” calling things as they are rather than the wishful thinking people want it to be. He had a powerful message to give...and it was a home run. Doesn’t mince words either.

He was the #1 debater in NORTH AMERICA (not just the USA) during the time he competed. He would rip a Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden or any other dolt the Democrats nominate to shreds, not to mention the RINOs in the primaries.
