fifth amendment

There’s lots of talk about where Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh stands on the Roe v Wade abortion decision and if he would vote to rescind it. There is another very controversial Supreme Court decision made just a few years ago, supported by Anthony Kennedy, the Kelo decision, that conservates should be asking about during Judge Kavanaugh's vetting.

What President Trump's proposal does is violate the Fifth Amendment to make it easier to violate the Second Amendment – a demonstration of just how far afield from the Constitution Republicans will stray when not securely moored to constitutional conservative principles.

Messing with an American's dogs and guns is a fast way to start a revolution, but that's just what may be in the offing if a ruling by a U.S. District Judge in Michigan becomes precedent.

Lois Lerner was not some innocent civic minded American walking down the street minding her own business that was ambushed by an oppressive government. She WAS the oppressive government.

Military robots and drones are becoming “smarter” and more autonomous. Until the scientific and technical geniuses behind the idea of autonomous armed drones also equip them with a foolproof “Constitution chip” Americans should oppose the deployment of such technology.

The First Amendment and your right to privacy is under attack -- again. This time, liberal attorneys general for California and New York are violating the privacy of nonprofit organizations donors AND there's strong implications suggesting that they're colluding with the infamous (now "on leave-with-pay") head of IRS Exempt Organizations, Lois Lerner. The efforts to shut down this blatant abuse of power by leftists who want to strangle nonprofits' First Amendment rights are gaining momentum as more new information about Lerner’s collaboration with state officials comes to light. 

Liberal Attorneys General in New York and California are abusing their positions and violating the Constitution and federal law by collecting and disclosing donors to nonprofit organizations, potentially exposing them to harassment and bullying. Dick Dingman, and the Free Speech Coalition are demanding Congress put a stop to the practice.

Derek Khanna quotes Georgetown Law Professor Randy Barnett on double jeopardy to argue that at the Founding there was thought to be little, if any, overlap between federal and state laws governing individuals. In light of the modern expansion of federal power, Khanna says 'twice put in jeopardy of life or limb' should be interpreted to mean what it says.

The principles of the Declaration of Independence -- the very principles of what it means to be America and to be an American -- cannot withstand unless we return to government governed by a paramount law.
