It's ridiculous.
And as you alluded to, there could be a separate unrelated challenge
to California's ballot harvesting and other provisions that, fraud aside, which is a legitimate concern, but they decrease public confidence in the integrity of elections.
Regardless of whether there is actual fraud, that public perception of the elections being fair and transparent is just as important.
And having all of these kinds of this kind of uncertainty counting after ballots without postmarks, all of this sort of stuff really should be reined in.
And this, unlike birthright citizenship, is an area that Congress can step into and fix.
Well, just to be clear, you can't fire everybody, meaning the lowest level clerk and all that.
This opinion applies to principal officers because the logic is the president has to be able to control the executive branch.
They have to do his bidding.
If he can't control his staff, then we are creating this problem.
fourth or fifth branch of government.
That totally makes sense.
Humphrey's executor, the 90-year-old case, has been eroded, and it was good that it was overturned.
It sounds like with the Fed, first of all, I think Alito in dissent and Barrett noted that the court shouldn't even have gone there
in deciding the Fed's independence.
They should have, back in the fall, just granted or denied the government's application for stay and let the fact find and continue in the district court, which is what it's going to do now about whether Lisa Cook actually committed any fraud.
And it looks like the distinguishing point is that rather than being a relic of the progressive era or New Deal, these alphabet enforcement agencies, monetary policy in the Fed hearkens back to the founders and Alexander Hamilton's concern
for political involvement in setting monetary policies, something like that.
But even to that point, the Fed has gained a whole bunch of other regulatory and enforcement authorities that didn't exist at the founding during the first and second bank of the USA and all of that ancient history.
So I think the court did go too far.
