I love this truth!

“To the degree that we are having trouble today, perhaps it’s because we spent 2020 & 2021 forgetting to respect the checks and balances in our Constitution.

After all, the careful balance of power in our Constitution protects liberty.”

What would Fisher Ames say today? I would hope that he would say exactly the same thing as he did 1788. However, I'm afraid that he would think that what he sees is not how the Constitution was intended to work. Too many changes and manipulations have allowed one party to achieve too much power. The compromise, States rights and individual rights have been subverted by power hungry politicians.

Thank you Tara for remembering the founding fathers intent of our Nation.
