Federalism Is Good For Liberals Too

Constitution Thursday

It's Constitution Thursday, and we take a look at Federalism and its evolution in The United states under the Constitution. What seemed at first to be a pretty clear distinction between state and Federal powers, has slowly morphed into a whole lot more Federal and less State. And the journey to get there started long before the Progressive era. In fact, it really stated the day after the Constitution was ratified. We'll take a short look at two cases in the news this week. One of them went before the Court and the law passed by Congress was stuck down, allowing for sports Betting to be opened up across the nation. It's the opinion in that case that has Progressives excited and one of them even exclaiming that "Federalism can be good for liberals!" The other deals with the laws being debated by Congress as we speck to make any attack on a Police Officer a Federal Crime. who would oppose that? After all, we "support" Law enforcement, right? Or do we support and defend the Constitution?
