Whitehead: The People Vs The Police State
The struggle for justice in the Supreme Court. The untimely death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has predictably created a political firestorm. Republicans and Democrats, eager to take advantage of an opening on
the Supreme Court, have been quick to advance their ideas about Scalia’s
replacement. This is just the beginning of the ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Justice Scalia & Constitutional Fidelity
Integrity matters. When the sad news came of the sudden death this past weekend of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, I wept for my friend. We had developed a happy friendship during the past 15 years, one which I had selfishly hoped would endure. He permitted his friends to see all of him. We knew him to be in private just as he appeared in ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: What If There Is No Difference?
What are the lovers of liberty to do? What if all the remaining presidential candidates really want the
same things? What if they all offer essentially the same ideas couched
in different words? What if these primary races have become beauty
pageants largely based on personality and advertising? What if our system of governance is so deep ... MORECruz Makes Play for Libertarian Voters. Is Anybody Game?
by David Boaz. As he moved from evangelical Iowa to fiscally conservative New
Hampshire, Sen. Ted Cruz didn't waste a minute in changing his tune. In his Iowa victory speech Cruz gave a shout-out to libertarians, who are thick on the ground in New Hampshire. He declared, "That old Reagan coalition is coming back together, ... ... MOREThomas Sowell: 'Messing With The Constitution'
Taking power back from lawyers in robes. In recent years, a small but growing number of people have advocated a convention of states to propose amendments to the Constitution of the United States. The reaction to the proposal has been hostile, out of all proportion to either the originality or the danger of such a convention. The political ... MOREVIDEO: Brian Brown - Supreme Court Resistance
If the Supreme Court declared the sky to be green, would it cease to be blue?

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." — Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution In 2008, the Supreme Court laid to rest the once-simmering dispute over the meaning of the Second Amendment.

Can you delegate a right that you don’t have? Jan Helfeld is a political journalist who has been traveling around and asking politicians some of the same awkward questions that work to expose the illegitimacy of their authority. His questions were extremely simple and many times ridiculed as “stupid” by the politicians that he interviewed, ... MORE
Micah J Fleck: New York’s “Misgendering” Law Is Wrong
Another slap at free speech. The Republic just published a very informative report on a new civil rights guideline that could end up with NYC citizens facing hefty fines for what is being called “misgendering.” The idea, as the original news story explains, is that calling a trans person the wrong pronoun or title is now seen as a civil rights violation. ... MOREObama’s Top Ten Constitutional Violations Of 2015
by Ilya Shapiro. As we approach the final year of Barack Obama’s presidency, there isn’t much that the president can do to change people’s opinion of him, for better or worse. His legacy, barring some extraordinary occurrence — including an extraterrestrial one, as the holiday advertising blitz for the new Independence Day movie reminds us — is ... MORE
Thomas Sowell: Attacking the Truth: Part II
Merely applying the laws. The case currently before the U.S. Supreme Court, involving racial
double standards in admissions to the University of Texas at Austin, has
an Alice-in-Wonderland quality that has been all too common in other
Supreme Court cases involving affirmative action in academia, going all
the way back to 1978. Plain ... MORE
Cutting Constitutional Corners Won't Stop Terrorism
by Andrew Napolitano. If you were looking for a needle in a haystack, simple logic would tell you that the smaller the haystack the likelier you are to find the needle. Except for the government. Since Edward Snowden revealed the federal government's unlawful and unconstitutional use of federal statutes to justify spying on all ... MORE
