Go Ted Go! The country is going down the tubes but I’d rather go down fighting with people like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee than RINOS like John Boehner and John McCain.

Which is exactly what happened.

In My mind, the law should have had to go back to the House.

ROFL!

Naturally- there was a tweet from a lefty criticizing him for reading "Green Eggs and Ham", and of course they forgot to mention that he was reading it to his kids.

place saver for later.

This is the type of presentation, dialogue, and debate that is sorely missed, in the msm and especially the campaign trail.

If they need something else to read about the Supreme Court they should read Mark Levin’s books...

I recommend starting with “Men in Black” and follow it with the supreme court parts of “The Liberty Amendments”

I really got a lot out of his explanation of how the Supreme Court usurped power. Very clearly stated- excellent!

He is not the speaker that Cruz is, but he is on the mark.

This recap of the malfeasance of the Roberts Court by Mike Lee is well worth staying up to hear. I’ve never heard it explained this fully.

When is Biden going to show up and match wits?

You know what, that would probably side track Cruz for a second.
Cruz would be laughing so much, I really think it would break his concentration momentarily :)

Lee talking about how even after the bill was passed, we’ve had two significant revisions to the law brought about by the judicial branch of the govt.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Placemark -— and 2156, 2169

Lee is nailing this and giving Cruz a much needed break,

\Mike Lee would make an excellent Supreme Court Justice as would Cruz after either finishes their terms as senator and hopefully president.

There is nothing against having a former president as a SC justice.
