And the minority conservatives that live in these place EXPECT the US government to enforce its laws!

Withhold the money. That’s fine by me.

Have some b.lls at the fed level and do what you’re supposed to.

Its a Disgrace that cuomo and newsome make the Fed Govt look like b.tches afraid to act.

And while we’re at it, the 2nd amendment isn’t a STATE or LOCAL issue, it’s an AMENDMENT.

Get rolling on that too.

I’ll suffer the laws that the state and localities are allowed to pass.

But give a brother a break and at least enforce fed laws and amendments

And we also expect the FedGov to keep those laws in line with their Constitutional powers!

What's so different about marijuana and alcohol that one requires a Constitutional amendment to ban, while the other just needs some laws and random agency regulations?

How does "shall not be infringed" compute with Brady or GCA or GCA'86 or NFA or FFA or AWB or etcetcetc?

What part of regulating interstate commerce allows for corn requirements in fuels?

What part of the Constitution allows the FedGov to even be giving away any of this grant money in the first place? Cities/States/colleges should not be depending on Fed (our!) dollars to pay for so much, if any, of their budgets.



I could go on and on. What we really need is a Constitutional amendment that requires every law passed by Congress to have all contents be related to the title (no more 'omnibus' bullshit!), and a section of the law that explains exactly what authority Congress has to pass such law. (Art1Sec8 quotes would do nicely.)
