When I was a teenager, my mom gave me some simple advice about marriage. It was,"Never do anything once, that you don't want to do for the rest of your life." Take out the trash, whatever. Do it once and you own it.

Modern parallel: Never give the government power, that you don't want it to have forever.

Getting this power back will require nothing less than a revolution. Hopefully it is a peaceful one, at the hands of a hundred million people around the world that have had enough, and want their world back. In the US, a new constitutional convention basically going back to the original and getting rid of 200 years of 'jurisprudence' starting with Marbury v Madison. And taking the limitations of the enumerated powers seriously.

Yes. I spent Monday arguing to a Fed Soc audience that the answer to social media censorship is NOT regulation. Not even “common carrier.” Sue them, preferably privately, excise the cronyist cancer, and stitch up the patient.

More on point: I was disappointed to see Dinesh D’Souza comment that it was fine for SCOTUS to uphold the vaccine mandates for healthcare workers, so long as the OSHA mandate was struck down. Not one inch.
