Summary

When it comes to the most important issues of our time, the political elites are not just missing their shots, they are tossing one airball after another. The entire premise that many policies and political fights are built upon is absolutely erroneous. I begin the show continuing our ongoing discussion about the true origins of judicial supremacy and how it is a political fiction that was completely rejected by our Founders. I shed new insight on how Madison and others were certain that the other branches of government have just as much say in constitutional interpretation as the judiciary does. Yet we have an entire Supreme Court fight built upon a lie that the court is the final word on every matter, absent a constitutional amendment. Both sides, including conservative legal elites, buy into this fallacy. Next, I discuss the upcoming wasteful spending on a drug crisis that Congress has completely misdiagnosed. The true crisis is illicit drugs from open borders, Medicaid expansion, and the war on legitimate pain patients. Also, Trump is finally coming around to our point of view on the budget. So where is the “conservative movement” backing him?   Show links Medicaid is the big culprit in prescription overdose crisis But open borders letting in illicit drugs are still the main problem   It's budget or bust for Trump, but where is the cavalry?
