#1 “Any government will work if authority and responsibility are equal and coordinate. This does not insure “good” government, it simply insures that it will work. But such governments are rare — most people want to run things, but want no part of the blame. This used to be called the “backseat driver” syndrome.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, The Notebooks of Lazarus Long

#5 The doctrine of judicial immunity, which basically means that activist judges don't have skin in the game, is not a part of the Constitution. I can think of a bunch of reasons not to abolish that doctrine, but it would be fun to see Trump issue an executive order limiting it in some way. For example: "Any district judge who declares an executive order unconstitutional shall within 10 days appear before Congress to explain the basis for the court's decision." I'd like to see Senator Kennedy ask these folks his typical pointed questions in public. After all, democracy dies in darkness.
