What would it take to get the GOAT Thomas to come after this. This would destroy the majority of the bullshite legislation and fed overreach brought to us the past 80+ years.

I agree that the last century of CC jurisprudence is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG ... but the stare decisis problems of Roe were essentially non-existent compared to the existing body of case law based upon that wrongheaded interpretation of the CC.

For one thing, "regulating" interstate commerce has come to mean something akin to "place restrictions upon," whereas in the language of the day it was written "to regulate" meant "to make regular."

So this original intent of the clause was to make interstate commerce EASIER and therefore more regular. Over the years, it's become a tool of tyrants to make interstate commerce more difficult and therefore less common.

He's been going after it for decades

As I posted in a thread a day or 2 ago. US losing its current ICC power would likely cause a worldwide depression and possibly war.

I think that it would be something that would have to be unwound over a decade or 2.

Commerce clause expansion into oblivion is a top-5 problem with the US polity.

Imagine being so dumb as to think that has any relevance to the Commerce Clause.

Oops, I guess that you need NOT "imagine."

Am I so illiterate as to be unable to read this statement of yours and take it at face value?

Good Lord. Of course they were there.

He is claiming that I said the protest was legal. I expressed no such opinion.

The best part of dobbs - is that it paved the way to dismantle centralized federal power created by illogical and flat out fricking made up interpretations of the constitution
