The states are “duty bound to interpose.” That’s how James Madison put it in his Virginia Resolutions, passed on Dec 21 and 24, 1798, in response to the Alien and Sedition Acts. His resolutions answer a timeless question: What should be done when the federal government oversteps its constitutional bounds? Today, that’s 24/7/365 – so it … Read more

The State of Vermont is committed to ruining the lives of Vermonters to achieve arbitrary emissions reduction targets that are globally insignificant. The entire exercise is a punchline to a bad joke. To make matters worse, the State is arguing with environmentalists over whether or not they are achieving those meaningless planned reductions.

It will not have escaped many people’s attention that one of the main strategies in America’s “reckoning on race and Southern identity” involves depicting the Confederate battle flag as a symbol of racial oppression.
