MORNING MUSING
The Judiciary Committee listening to on Wednesday concerning the Biden presidency and, in specific, the heavy reliance on the autopen to affix his signature to untold numbers of proclamations, pardons, and govt orders, was eyeopening in many respects. First, of course, there was the utter refusal of Senate Democrats to take part in the listening to (save Vermont’s Peter Welch, who really began out his remarks decently, before taking a bitter flip, and Illinois’ Dick Durbin, who provided up an anemic “But Trump!!1!” before exiting the dais). They provided no witness and merely refused to acknowledge that there could possibly be any challenge price inspecting.
Then, there’s the fascinating juxtaposition of a occasion squawking about “No Kings!” while concurrently dismissing considerations over the actual fact that we have been apparently ruled by autopen for at least the final half of the Biden presidency. Now, of course, it wasn’t the pen itself making the choice. No — it was anonymous, faceless, unelected others who have been calling the photographs. And that’s apparently just hunky dory with the Dems: Forget the Constitution, which supplies for a unitary govt. Let an unelected, unnamed, unaccountable committee run issues. Let an unelected, behemoth forms run the show. Let an unelected judiciary make the last word calls. Those are all preferable to letting the dude who was duly elected by 77 million people (and 31 out of 50 states) train his constitutional authority. That’s messed up, mates.
