  2. That is where #state lawmakers come in, Professor Amar said.

    “Sometimes the #federal government will misbehave,” he said, “& you can’t count on #Congress always to rein the federal government in.”

    His article drew on 2 principles often associated with #conservatives: #federalism & #originalism.

  3. Judge Kate M. Menendez, who is hearing arguments on whether to block the #ICE surge in #Minnesota, said that “I think it goes without saying that we are in shockingly unusual times.” But she’s pressing a lawyer for the state on whether their claims of a #10thAmendment violation pass legal muster [#10A defines the concept of #federalism, the relationship between #Federal & #state governments.]

    Even if they then sue & win, Trump has shown he won’t abide by any court orders, not even orders from #SCOTUS.

    There is no enforcing body willing or able to hold him accountable.
