Biden’s Extra Legislative “Democracy”

Now that HR 1 failed to make it through the Congress, the left has dusted off their old playbook: take “voting rights” violations to the courts.

You see, the supposed defenders of “democracy” can’t ever get much of their agenda done democratically, so they rely on the federal court system to ram it down the throats of the American public.

In fact, when the left’s agenda is on the ballot, most of the time the people of the States reject it.

Even in blue States. See affirmative action in California.

This is why the left elevated Ruth Bader Ginsburg to a near demi-god. She was the best hope for progressives.

So the left will challenge the Georgia voter law in federal court. Georgia could simply pull State sovereign immunity and refuse to show up.

That would be hilarious, but our federal judge overlords have ruled that the 11th Amendment can only be interpreted through the eye of a needle.

In other words, they have distorted its original intent. Go figure.

But Georgia has a golden opportunity here. They can prove, unequivocally, that the voter ID is constitutional and put an end to the left’s stupidity.

HR 1 was unconstitutional from the beginning. Alexander Hamilton said as much in Federalist No. 59 when he argued that federal oversight of elections would only be used in extraordinary occasions, i.e. if the States refused to hold federal elections.

Last time I checked Georgia held elections. They had many irregularities, but they held an election.

And nothing in the Georgia law violates the 14th, 19th, 24th, or 26th Amendments to the Constitution.

In other words, the left is grasping at straws and doing the only thing they really know how to do to win. Sue.

If Republicans were smart, they’d call them out for their hypocrisy. If the left really believed in democracy, they would not challenge the Georgia law. It was legally passed by the elected representatives of the people of Georgia and signed into law by the legally elected Governor of Georgia, not the pretender Stacey Abrams.

HR 1 was a joke, a naked power grab. The American public could see it. And the majority of Americans want real election security. If the left has their way, we won’t get that.

I discuss HR 1 and the sue happy left in episode 469 of The Brion McClanahan Show.
