Not being legally trained, I am sure I simply don't understand the nuance, but it seems to me that independent state legislatures doctrine is batshit crazy. We need to either get rid of those 3 trumpobytes or add 3 new justices to offset them. Maybe they could be transferred to Gilead.

Enjoy (?) your weekend TC. It's almost like having a paper due in the morning and a party going on that night.

If I understand correctly what you and others have presented, the NC Legislature is preparing to argue that the NC Constitution, which established the Legislature, has no authority over legislative action and behavior. While I understand hypocrisy and stupidity on the part of politicians, I fail to understand how one can argue (at taxpayer expense) that the basis for one's existence has no validity when passing judgement on one's actions subject to that creation. Am I missing something here or are they?
