This is constitutionally incompetent. When SCOTUS in Dobbs reverted abortion regulation to the states, it didn't apply just to the judicial branch of the federal government. It also applies to so-called codification of Roe or late-term restrictions by the Congress.

Trump 2.0 https://t.co/vsG0pHfDaZ
Under our Constitution, the legitimate powers of the Congress and POTUS are strictly enumerated. Trump in the post would have little more relevance than a yellow dog. The problem with leftists is they love authoritarianism, until it's in the hands of their opponents

Surprise, surprise! The Fed stoking the economy in an election year... They have a problem: the supply of Treasury debt is outstripping the demand. Econ 101 students can tell you what that means for interest rates. We need sound money, not Trump or Biden. https://t.co/QDV6AdxjZC

The GOP POTUS field has completely blown a key talking point, although Biden would be reluctant to make the case. The fact is American oil production has hit an all-time high under Biden, more than under Trump. Higher prices make shale extraction feasiblehttps://t.co/2WTeMIzd8k

Wow, the RCP job approval for Biden has just broken 40%. Not only is he losing head-to-head polls to Trump but Trump is closing the gap in blue states like MN and VA. The Biden campaign is failing on multiple talking points.https://t.co/UQ3nG18Faa

Sorry to see Doug Burgum withdraw from the GOP POTUS primary but he had failed to qualify for the last debate and he was barely polling in the field. Unlike Trump and Ramaswamy, the former CEO has actual public sector executive experience.https://t.co/nijcaqpLhO

Not all Jews are Zionists. It reminds me of when Protestant bigots fought against JFK's election on the grounds America would be ruled by the Holy See. JFK and Biden weren't even considered good Catholics by most of us in the faith.

Nope. Not even close. Trump's trade war with China was a complete failure. China rewarded his provocations by switching from US grain suppliers to others (e.g., Brazil). Trump then bailed out American suppliers using tariffs paid by middle-class Americans. Totally corrupt. https://t.co/fCMUcXWTV0
