Summary

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, the tenth amendment is being largely ignored as blue states relinquish federalism in favor of casting blame and seeking charity from the central government. However, it’s states that have a responsibility to meet the needs of their respective states. All politicians seem to think that a tax-and-spend pseudo-monarchy is the solution but it’s not. Democrat Governors are grouping regionally so that they can drag their feet and collectively blame President Trump. Thankfully, Trump has been prudential in his use of federal authority and has not taken any pages from the Woodrow Wilson playbook. Trump would be wise to put strings on any federal aid, requirements that must be met in order to get such funding. It’s time to bring in the economic experts in order to re-open small businesses across America. Then, interstate commerce has been affected but there are questions over who has the authority to re-open states. Federal authority does not supersede state authority unless it’s an issue of federal legislation to regulate interstate commerce. Later, politicians like Barack Obama and Joe Biden have made lots of money in the private sector, yet they take FDR-styled policy positions, to the contrary. Afterward, our debt crisis has been ignored and must stop. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:43.0	Hello! Everybody out there, Mark Levin here, our number 877-3813-181.
0:49.0	877-3813-181.
0:54.0	The federalism is in the news. Wow, federalism in the 10th Amendment.
1:01.0	You know, the Supreme Court has all but dismissed the 10th Amendment, even though it's right there in the Bill of Rights.
1:07.0	That's why it's called the 10th Amendment.
1:10.0	And it was very, very important, so important that the states ratified it because it recognized the state authority.
1:18.0	Do you know any leftists who believes in the 10th Amendment? None of them do. Not one.
1:28.0	And the reason is, and I wrote about it, in rediscovering Americanism and the tyranny of progressivism,
1:33.0	because if you're a progressive, you believe that it's centralized, authoritarian, iron-fisted government.
1:38.0	Not just talking about it, but doing it.
1:42.0	Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Schumer Pelosi, they believe in federalism since when?
1:51.0	Now, I've been fascinated by this silliness, so-called debate going on, even national review editors.
2:00.0	Put out a piece that's partly right and partly wrong, and I'll explain that later.
2:06.0	The president is not without police powers, but the truth is, the states, for the most part,
