    New test for ALL new government proposals

    Can we afford it? I mean can we pay for it without borrowing more money? If the answer is no then the answer is no.

    That's the second criterion.

    The first, the most important question is "what is its SPECIFIC Constitutional basis?"

    Citing the non-existent "general welfare clause" should automatically direct the proposal to the trash can.

    We the People DID NOT vote in a majority Rodent Congress, they stole it via election fraud.

    Your team attempted a coup. Grow up. Face the music. You are a coup cheerleader.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    And, no, that is not the definition of fascism. How many times does this need to be explained?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
