Retired Archivist. But still volunteer for an Archives. Sometimes do other retirement things. Sometimes don’t do much. Please. No DMs about that which you can find out from reading my tepid posts on Bluesky. Ok? Thanks.

‘It was the defense that was the problem.’
DejaVu, Daddy.
Watched the game for a bit at a favorite place, Streetcar 82. I had no problem with accepting the Lions running all over us. I mean, ‘immunity.’
But when they started interviewing you know who in the news box, I had this immediate, covering the face, ‘Oh Hell No!’ reaction.
Purely reflexive.
‘…if extraordinary circumstances might render that interposition necessary to [the U.S. Government’s] safety.’
Seems pretty clear that such interposition might now be necessary.

‘ by neglecting to provide for the choice of persons to administer its affairs.’
‘Noting that the Elections Clause gave state legislatures primary power over Senate and House elections, Hamilton took the position that Congress would likely involve itself in congressional elections only…’
There is of course, a discussion of this clause in the Federalist. #59-
‘…Alexander Hamilton, in the Federalist No. 59, reasoned that unless Congress had authority to regulate Senate and House elections, state legislatures might at any moment annihilate [the U.S. Government]…’
And so we repeat-
‘but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations…..’
constitution.congress.gov/browse/artic...
Section 4 Congress
Clause 1 Elections Clause
The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations…..
Just for fun I checked out the Constitution to see what it might say about the Federal Government setting up independent redistricting. I was thinking about 14th AMD or something, but no! Article 1, Sec. 4, Clause 1 of the Constitution of the United States-
Article I Legislative Branch

‘So far this year, job cuts are at the highest level since 2020 when 2,304,755 cuts were announced through October.’
Is this really the worst year since the end of the 1st Trump administration?
Hard to say since the gutting of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
