Title: Dredging up the Article 5 Convention of States debate
Post by: Sauce on August 08, 2022, 05:01:42 AM
Never understood the fear of a Article 5 Convention of States. Many seem to conflate a convention of states with a full-blown Constitutional Convention, two COMPLETLEY different things).

Anyways, if the article below is correct about picking up even more state legislatures, the time is NOW to get the wheels turning in earnest as Republicans (and to a certain degree more America First candidates) take control of MORE state legislatures.

This procedure was devised by the Founders for the very circumstances we are living through, a runaway Federal Government with enough States in disagreement with it to reign it in. THIS would steer us back to being a true Republic before the left pushes us completely off the cliff in their attempt to surrender our sovereignty.

THIS is how we get term limits, codify size of Supreme court, dismantle the administrative state and a balanced budget amendment among many other items.

My guess is that this may be something PDJT will champion either in his completion of his stolen 2nd term or his 3rd term (if ya want to call it that, I will to pre trigger those that need and will be triggered) after the smoke clears from what is coming. :popcorn:  :thumbsup:

Sadly, we do need a C of S. I hate any amendments to the Constitution, but a permanent spending limit must happen.
What I'd like to see is this ridiculous salary and comp/retire package these scum procure.
Also ban Congress form insider trading, make it punishable with life in prison.

There was a time in our culture that theft was scorned upon, but Pols made in an acceptable part of being a pol.
