SC flips Colorado the bird, Dred Scott stirs
The recent SC decision regarding the 14th Section 3, ignoring the issue of insurrection, continues an unresolved situation of serious conflict between the states and the Feds.
Imagine, (I said imagine), California will not accept having someone convicted of insurrection in their state on the ballot. Their state AG says, not happening. California GOP says, yes it is. The SC says you have to. The CA state AG refuses to print ballots with said insurrectionists’ name on it.
What then? A number of things are possible of course. But to me, the issue returns back to the SC, and/or the states begin to just blithely ignore the SC on this issue, then another issue, then another issue, etc. The authority of the SC, a branch of our government, is now irrelevant.
However you slice it, we’re headed for a showdown.
