One of Mark Levin’s Liberty Amendments is to empower the states, by three fifths vote, to override congressional statutes, executive regulations or judicial decisions.

Of course, we wouldn’t be having this discussion in the first place, nor would we stand at the edge of outright tyranny if the states didn’t boot themselves from the senate in 1913.

It is why an Article V convention to propose structural amendments is essential.

I very much agree.

We've reached a point in the aging process of our nation, where the central government now operates in a fashion directly opposed to, and completely contradictory, to the bedrock principles underlying our very founding.

We either correct course using the tools devised by the Framers, or risk the very worst sort of outcomes in the near future.
