Excellent points! I will be sending this to my state rep and state senator to let them know I expect them to be standing up against the O’Biden regime NOW!
Great article Alex. In Tennessee we have written and sponsored legislation that creates a legally binding process in which to invoke Nullification. TN Citizens for State Sovereignty was created to make sure this legislation and other pending legislation in Tennessee (gold depository and making gold/silver legal tender) are passed in our next legislative session that begins in January 2024. It is our hope that other states will take our legislation, get it passed then join Tennessee in a compact of states. The only peaceful solution left is for state to wake up and realize the final arbiter of the Constitution is the state and the people of the state, not the federal government and that includes the Supreme Court. We gave away our power and now it is time to take it back. But it won’t happen by magic. The people MUST organize and make it happen . After this law is passed in Tennessee my group (TN Citizens for State Sovereignty) will serve as “watch dogs” to make sure every time the federal government steps outside of its 18 enumerated powers we will be there to put them back in their lane.

Great Article!
Instead of saying, though “means state governments retain the RIGHT under the Constitution to refuse to help federal agents to enforce unconstitutional powers…” I would have used “powers.”
I know that many people use the phrase “State’s Rights,” the idea that any man-made structure could ever have “rights” (as the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution use the term [unalienable rights given created man, by his Creator, God]) flies in the face of man-made governments having only delegated “powers.”
Use instead “reserved powers of the States”–so that everyone better realizes only created man has “rights.”
There’s a reason the Tenth Amendment speaks to only “powers” (because it’s talking about governments–whereas the Ninth speaks to “rights” when speaking to man {man also has reserved powers, never given to any government}]).
I wholeheartedly agree with Michael Boldin’s comment that “an educated populace supporting the Constitution” is “critical to preserving liberty” and especially that “what’s far more important than elections at any level is a people who support the Constitution and liberty and are willing to defend it,” which is why I’m starting in January my new LearnTheConstitionInOneYear.com membership course, to teach the originally-ratified Constitution in 12 months (LearnTheAmendmentsInSixMonths.com will follow thereafter).
There are some who posted here who have little to no history or Constitutional knowledge or they would know that SCOTUS has said that nullification is direct defiance of the constitution, and no federal judge will honor it. Further it would cause such chaos that no one would be safe as the rules would be different in each state. Think gun laws or carrying liquor and drinking on the public streets or abortion rights now that it has been returned to the states. Nullification crushes the concept of checks and balances in the Constitution and states who think they can nullify federal law, are going to learn the hard way. As long as the feds have the laws on the books that it is a federal crime, they can come into any state and shut down businesses, arrest people, etc. Remember the supremacy clause? Article VI?
The proper procedure when you do NOT like what the feds have to say or they do is to take them to court. Think gun laws in each city, county, state and the multiply that X50. In Montana we can carry concealed without permits – try that in Colorado for example, or California – wake up folks and educate yourselves. This author is a frequent writer in the JOHN BIRCH propaganda media and in this article above, does the same thing. He is spreading information meant to deceive or disinformation. He and the Birchers work against YOUR RIGHTS to use the constitution to rein in a wicked and abusive government. He and the John Birchers work against the people who want the Constitutional Right to tell the government NO legally and constitutionally. Go read article V and then go to articlevinfocenter.com and check the truth and factual information there.
