The Constitution Is Dangerous?

🇺🇸 The Constitution Is Sacred. Is It Also Dangerous? — NYT

One of the biggest threats to America’s politics might be the country’s founding document.

The United States Constitution is in trouble. After Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, he called for the “termination of all rules, regulations and articles, even those found in the Constitution.” Outraged critics denounced him for threatening a document that is supposed to be “sacrosanct.” By announcing his desire to throw off constitutional constraints in order to satisfy his personal ambitions, Trump was making his authoritarian inclinations abundantly clear.

It’s no surprise, then, that liberals charge Trump with being a menace to the Constitution. But his presidency and the prospect of his re-election have also generated another, very different, argument: that Trump owes his political ascent to the Constitution, making him a beneficiary of a document that is essentially antidemocratic and, in this day and age, increasingly dysfunctional.

After all, Trump became president in 2016 after losing the popular vote but winning the Electoral College (Article II). He appointed three justices to the Supreme Court (Article III), two of whom were confirmed by senators representing just 44 percent of the population (Article I). Those three justices helped overturn Roe v. Wade, a reversal with which most Americans disagreed. The eminent legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky, worried about opinion polls showing “a dramatic loss of faith in democracy,” writes in his new book, “No Democracy Lasts Forever”: “It is important for Americans to see that these failures stem from the Constitution itself.”

Back in 2018, Chemerinsky, the dean of Berkeley’s law school, still seemed to place considerable faith in the Constitution, pleading with fellow progressives in his book “We the People” “not to turn their back on the Constitution and the courts.” By contrast, “No Democracy Lasts Forever” is markedly pessimistic. Asserting that the Constitution, which is famously difficult to amend, has put the country “in grave danger,” Chemerinsky lays out what would need to happen for a new constitutional convention — and, in the book’s more somber moments, he entertains the possibility of secession. West Coast states might form a nation called “Pacifica.” Red states might form their own country. He hopes that any divorce, if it comes, will be peaceful.

The prospect of secession sounds extreme, but in suggesting that the Constitution could hasten the end of American democracy, Chemerinsky is far from alone. The argument that what ails the country’s politics isn’t simply the president, or Congress, or the Supreme Court, but the founding document that presides over all three, has been gaining traction, especially among liberals. Books and op-eds critiquing the Constitution have proliferated. Scholars are arguing that the Constitution has incentivized what Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt call a “Tyranny of the Minority.”

The anguish is, in some sense, a flip side of veneration. Americans have long assumed that the Constitution could save us; a growing chorus now wonders whether we need to be saved from it.

It's easy to mock this guy, laugh at him, say it's always Gingers etc.

However why are we not asking why, as a society, young men are making life choices like this?

Same as anyone who chooses to go against our natural order with how they live.

Something has gone badly wrong.

Oregon

“Oregon is using satellites to hunt small farms.”

Farmer Justin Rhodes says the state redefined “CAFO” so even 3 cows and a milking stand count as a factory farm.

Cease-and-desist letters. $100K “upgrades.” Family farms shut down.

“The fetal bovine serum is just disgusting, and it’s in almost every viral vaccine. They harvest it by inserting a needle into the beating heart of a baby cow to extract its blood. Where is PETA when you need them? The FDA even admits they use ‘cow parts’ because cows are large and have a lot to use.”

EXCLUSIVE Report on the campaign against Drug Cartels.

Aquila has recently been speaking to a few officials involved in the fight against the drug cartels in the sphere of the southern command, and there seems to be a consensus among the military & political brass to carry out an extensive military op against senior drug cartel members

Primarily the military is suggesting kinetic strikes to cut off the head of multiple drug kingpins.

The US has already collected enough intelligence and is now preparing to present it to congress soon to garner congressional support for the general activation of the US military against these Drug establishments.

The US has now enough firepower in the Carribbean to carry out deep strikes against drug cartel members in various countries simultaneously.

The political brass is considering the threat from these Drug kingpins which are also designated FTO's as credible "direct threats" to the citizens of America which makes action against them important.

Protective State

The phantom “civil war” will explain everything that happens next. Food shortages? “Supply chain disruptions due to unrest.” Rolling blackouts? “Cyberattacks from domestic extremists.” Bank freezes and travel bans? “Security measures.” Every new control will come wrapped in the same message: this is for your protection. And after years of fear, most people will accept it without a fight. They’ll even thank their rulers for keeping order.

This is the perfected PSYOP. Government doesn’t need to act like a tyrant—it just needs to pose as your shield against your neighbor. COVID turned every cough into a potential crime; this next stage will turn every differing opinion into one. You won’t fear the State—you’ll fear other citizens. And when that happens, the population polices itself.

The objective isn’t victory; it’s paralysis. Keep people scared, angry, and divided long enough, and they’ll beg for stability at any price. While they’re busy fighting ...

🌊🌎 Climate scientists’ controversial claim Gulf Stream could be near collapse — predicting a new ice age

A key Atlantic current could be pushed to the brink of collapse within decades, supposedly ushering in a new ice age and dramatically raising sea levels, climate scientists have claimed in a controversial new study published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment.

Per the new findings, the at-risk current in question is the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation or AMOC, a “conveyor belt of the ocean” that funnels warm water toward the ocean surface — from the tropics to the Northern Hemisphere.

This current, which includes the Gulf Stream that runs from the Gulf of Mexico to the US East Coast and across the Atlantic to Europe, helps maintain the mild climate of Europe, the UK, and the US East Coast.

The study stated that the source of this marine temperature regulator, the Greenland Ice sheet, is being thawed amid warming temperatures, causing ...
