Pres. Biden: “The Constitution is always evolving slightly in terms of additional rights or curtailing rights.”
So if courts or presidents can curtail constitutional rights at their whim, in what sense does the Constitution even exist? Is it merely a historical document to which we can refer for research, but which has no current relevance?
Either we have an actual Constitution that means what its authors intended, or we have no constitution and are ruled by officials exercising arbitrary and capricious power.
In the latter case, it would be better if we admitted we had no constitution. Then we could blame our lawmakers and vote them out of office if they displeased us. But if we still imagine we have a constitution, the government can claim they are following it, and we must shut up and obey. Rather than a guarantee of rights, this phony constitution is like a royal warrant from King George III, empowering officials to do anything they like.
Lockdowns, mask mandates, vaccine mandates, and endless states of emergency are just the teaser. Wait till the film itself starts. It will be a real horror flick.
