His usual idiocy.
“Federalism” isn’t a fantasy.
Sadly a lot of people in my home state are scared of challenging our governor and the mayors lock down policy or even silently accepting the lock down policy even if the citizen knows it would harm small businesses.
Someone hit the Nappy with a “Clue by Fore”?
napolano isn’t even good as a libertarian.
Libertarians hold the Port Authority of NY and NJ responsible for their actions.
When the Supreme Court rules, the people will be quite prepared to tell the Governors who is boss.
Yeah, isn’t it amazing how many people think the States and localities have powers under federalism and the Constitution?
Well, let’s hope the media can change their minds!!
The US Constitution... Hahaha
People don’t even know what is says, not even those sworn in under it or sworn to defend it.
Every single one of the Bill or Rights has been abridged. Name me one single right that we still have where government hasn’t made a small astrix and redefined for us what right we actually have, when it applies, to whom it applies, where it applies, and what license you need and how much it will cost for you to exercise your “constitutional right.” Just give me one of the 10 that still stands today?
You have laws in blatant contradiction of the most BASIC ideas explicitly expressed in the Constitution and no one in the judicial, legislative or executive branch has taken action to end this for years, i.e. FISA, Patriot Act, free speech zones, gun free zones...
When I hear someone mention the US Constitution (it’s become seldom) I just want to laugh.
Well, you’re sick.
Though anything from Napolitano is nonsense.
I hope so. The last thing I want to hear is governors and mayors telling everybody “We can suspend the constitution when ever we like” out loud and the news media still siding with the said governors and mayors, especially if it will make Trump look bad.
?
WTF?
Federalo9sm is not strange. See the 10th Amendment.
And common sense backs up local authorities dealing with local problems.
Idiots don’t realize the US Constitution is a federal pact.
They think states and localities have no power.
I’m no longer surprised at this ignorance.
“?”
!
LOL!
“Federalism”, not a strange concept.
He did, actually. It was on Lew Rockwell quite some time back.
Back when governors and mayors were shutting down their states and cities and when lock down/stay at home order was justified, I remember people supporting the lock down were saying that the 10th Amendment “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people” was a valid reason for governors and mayors to lock down their jurisdiction.
It’s deeper even than that.
Common sense says the locals know best.
And welccome to Free Republic.
