quote:

Several ways forward here given the choice of Roberts/Barrett to nullify the 14th Amendment and extra-constitutionally replace it with their own language:

1) Nullification. States issue birth certificates, and they can just stop issuing them to non-citizens. Roberts/Barrett can deal with the fallout and litigate each birth individually.

2) Pack the court. If Robert wants to be a politician who writes laws instead of a judge, then he can fight with 10 more unelected legislators in robes.

3) Deny entry to all pregnant foreigners.

4) Deny entry to all female foreigners.

5) Require sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry.

6) Dissolution of the Union. A nation which can’t even restrict who gets to be a citizen isn’t a nation.

7) Amend the Constitution. This is pointless, because once a judge decides he can rewrite the Constitution at will (as Roberts and Barrett did today), the actual text is meaningless. But this is what most GOP politicians gravitate towards because they are useless.

If you think all these options are not great, understand that that is what happens when unelected judges decide that they are in charge of the country and get to write its laws.


High quality melt, IMO.

Nullification is an American tradition that Jefferson and Madison both recognized and applied. It needs to be renewed. The idea that one federal court of 9 people decides what’s constitutional or not doesn’t make sense. The states wrote and adopted the constitution. The federal government, of which the Supreme Court is a part, is rarely, if ever going to voluntarily limit its own powers or restore lawful authority to the states.

#6 is where we’re headed, and I’m in favor of it. No reconciliation with these people is possible.

What about this one? It's certainly appropriate for the season.

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, . . .
