Actually I think the idea is closer to one where we are largely bound by the intent to create a ārationalā system of government and that social, technological, and political developments mean that strict adherence to original language actually undermines that intent. What Jefferson is saying is that the underlying spirit of a public democracy can be undermined if it is unable to evolve with changed conditions and growing human understanding.

Whitehouse has been excellent and everyone should watch his presentation. Heās been making his case on this stuff for months and moving the democratic party toward facing and dealing with the corruption of the courts. Heās shouting from the rooftops that the judiciary has been fundamentally compromised and democrats need to take action.

I wish Kamala was doing her questioning in person. (Iām assuming she will be on video like yesterday).
Yesā¦ Sheās zooming in later on as seniority takes president
No one from the law school, interesting.
I like where the end of Klobās questioning made ACB go. Basically had her saying, welllllll, something is agreed precedent unless a lot of people disagree with it and want it changed.
LOL sorry canāt say anything about Roe, the election, the ACA - no hints, no preconceptions. But let me discuss the constitutionality cell phone searches in detail with Sasse.
ACB basically blowing up the entire idea of textualism here with her very clear argument that circumstances change over 250 years.
Lol at the faculty wasting the time to write a letter sheās going to, at best, laugh at hysterically while reading it. GJGE Notre Dame faculty.
