These Blue State Governors have become dictators. Their States no longer have functioning legislatures or courts, so all law in those States come from them. Article IV, Section 4 (the Guarantee Clause) of the Constitution says every State is to have “a Republican Form of Government.” One-person rule in a State violates the Guarantee Clause and needs to stopped by the People or by the federal government.

I suspect it won’t be long until we the People find ourselves in a shooting war with our own local and state governments. Granted it is the solution that our Founding Fathers instructed us to use if it came down to it.

“That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
