Thanks for the post on this breaking issue. And I share your sentiments. Doesn’t seem to matter what the law says anymore.

The trouble is determining who has standing to challenge it. The “COG” is being created by executive order specifically to do an end-around legal challenges. About all I can imagine is if a State files suit against the administration.

It’s never been overturned, not even in part.

I first read this case about 1995 and realized right away the significance, if there was a top ten USSC case list for the last hundred years, it’s on it.

And there are things talked about in it that go far beyond the limitations of the federal power over the states, the structure of government itself is discussed pretty thoroughly.

Suffice to say that a large part of what gets done in Washington and how it gets done is blatantly unconstitutional, and I’ll leave it at that.

I just saw that thread on Barry's EO and this 'Council of Governors'. Its sooooo illegal and unconstitutional Barry must have been smoking something when he wrote it.

An EO only pertains to the operations of the Executive branch of gubmint and those who work for the Executive, the POTUS - unless said EO further acted upon by congress and made into a law,a LEGAL law. So Barry may have well issued an EO organizing:

A Council of Federal Legislators
Or a
Council of Federal Judges
Not to mention that even IF he could legally authorize said council, the Ten State Governors in this EO have no say so or power over the other Forty State Governors.

Barry can take this EO and wipe his butt with it, its that legal.

I want to know who took all his tests in college and law school because this moron sure didn't
