The Supreme Court Is Not The Final Say On The Constitution by Benjamin R. Dierker

The Supreme Court Is Not The Final Say On The Constitution by Benjamin R. Dierker

The only national laws are the Constitution, congressional law, and treaties. Conspicuously missing are Supreme Court decisions. While the court is known for deciding the constitutionality of laws, its decisions are not themselves laws. In the strictest sense, the opinions rendered by the Supreme Court are binding only on the parties before it.
The Supreme Court is just that, a court. It was established to adjudicate cases and controversies before it. Courts cannot make general pronouncements of law; they exist to settle disputes.

I love this take on the Supremacy of the Supreme Court's decisions. I think the people are sovereign and should retake the power of "We the people..."

I Was America’s First ‘Nonbinary’ Person. It Was All a Sham by Jamie Shupe

I Was America’s First ‘Nonbinary’ Person. It Was All a Sham by Jamie Shupe

The truth is that my sex change to nonbinary was a medical and scientific fraud.

Fascinating story of someone deceived by the LBGT ideology.

It Pays to Be A Wyoming Cowboy by The Editorial Board

It Pays to Be A Wyoming Cowboy by The Editorial Board

Despite the griping, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously in July to keep the slogan. Students, alumni and sports fans apparently weren’t offended. The university bookstore sold out of “the world needs more cowboys” T-shirts the first week they hit the shelves. Responding to demand, the University of Wyoming put the slogan on other products and sold roughly 5,000 items in the first six months.

I love that someone is standing up against the SJW! And they get the win!

How Pro-Lifers Can Overcome The Courts Stacked Against Life by Bill Kilgore

How Pro-Lifers Can Overcome The Courts Stacked Against Life by Bill Kilgore

Pro-life people and those who believe in self-government are left with poor options. Either they can continue to wait for the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade and sweep away 46 years of precedent, or they can attempt to make abortion a real political issue, not a legal question (what might once have been called a political question). This would be to challenge the dogma of judicial supremacy.
Forcing a constitutional crisis will make abortion a political issue. A constitutional crisis is not a good thing, for its outcome is always uncertain. Yet if pro-life majorities in the states are willing to force the issue and declare that the people are truly sovereign, the pro-life movement can begin to make substantive change and start outlawing abortion locally, and, in time, everywhere.

I love this take. It's time to force the issue. It is literally a matter of life and death!

Trump and the Revolt of the ‘Somewheres’ by Christopher DeMuth

Trump and the Revolt of the ‘Somewheres’ by Christopher DeMuth

The great challenge now is to make productive use of the new spirit of nationalism and its political energies. The successful nation-state not only declares but cultivates its sovereignty, and that requires sustaining the allegiance of citizens and tangibly promoting their interests and well-being. It does not aggravate, but rather respects and builds upon, the parochial loyalties of its constituent tribes of community, locality, and ethnic, racial and religious identity. Americans have done this brilliantly through the centuries, but lately we seem to have lost the knack. In the wake of the Trump rebellion, we should aim to restore relatively stable political competition and mutual accommodation, inspired by a sense of common destiny—a more capacious nationalism.

Interesting take on the "Anywheres" v. "Somewheres" dichotomy.
