Answer: THE PEOPLE!
Listen to the people.
If you don't, then you will be tossed from office.
UPDATE: FROM A COMMENTER - TERRAPOD:
Dear reader and erstwhile free citzen,The Founders were nearly all anti-factionalists and abhorred factions - which are "parties".
Having read the following documents, I find myself incredulous that the Founders were unable to consider or foresee a situation where both Houses and the presidency, the media and almost half the Supreme Court ended up under one party control.
Federalist № 69,66, 47, 65 84, 74, 39, 77 and the Constitution make no place for impeachment by the combined states or by a majority of the population, assuming that a new election wouldn't right such an extreme condition.
It would appear that we may have no mechanism to reverse the unconstitutional actions of this corrupt edifice short of violence, which indeed was contemplated but surely without vision to what technology has made possible to the opposing sides nor the sheer size and scope of what government has become.
I welcome anyone who can point out how we the people can overcome this, if the government chooses to circumvent and ignore the constitution and has control in larger measure of weapons and personnel that can be applied against the people?
They thought they had made the federal government sufficiently limited and circumscribed.
It seems our last best hopes will be the Senate and then the SCOTUS.
If that fails then secession by states which refuse to be taken over in violation of the Tenth Amendment.
Then all hell breaks loose.
God Help Us.

It is beginning to look like many in congress serve the party and the party leadership and not the people---many of these will fall by the wayside this fall!

ReplyDeleteOur Founders never foresaw the sliminess we're dealing with right now.
This administration has deemed themselves an oligarch.
