PROBE THE GOP

Submitted by ub on

Has The Grand Old Party been hijacked by Trump’s criminal enterprise in just a few years and how deep is your love, GOP?

In my effort at transparency, I should point out that although I have no political affiliation, I was nevertheless recruited by a Republican POTUS Bush to serve at USIA Spanish-language service.

Amazing how much this cult has evolved since its inception. The Republican Party was founded in 1854 by anti-slavery activists who opposed the Kansas–Nebraska Act. It allowed for the potential expansion of chattel slavery into the western territories. Today RFE GOP comprises diverse ideologies and factions, but conservatism was the party's main ideology. Had it now shifted from law and order to criminality out of order?

SCOTUS - The devil was reportedly in the detail) In the less than three years since President Joe Biden took office, the Supreme Court has effectively seized control over federal housing policy, decided which workers must be vaccinated against Covid-19, stripped the EPA of much of its power to fight climate change, and rewritten a federal law permitting the secretary of education to modify or forgive student loans.
In each of these decisions, the Court relied on something known as the “major questions doctrine,” which allows the Court to effectively veto any action by a federal agency that five justices deem to be too economically significant or too politically controversial.

This major question doctrine, at least as it is understood by the Court’s current majority, emerged almost from thin air in the past several years. And it has been wielded almost exclusively by Republican-appointed justices to invalidate policies created by a Democratic administration. This doctrine is mentioned nowhere in the Constitution. Nor is it mentioned in any federal statute. It appears to have been completely made up by justices who want to wield outsize control over federal policy."
