Constitutionalism is ours, not the courts’. Let’s create a court that maximizes our system’s capacity for representative democracy so we the people get to rule and overrule ourselves rather than leave it to a handful of randos to dress up their team’s policy preferences in high-falutin theories.

Errata: Also overturn Boerne's limits on Congress's 14A power and Citizens United, and every other antidemocratic ruling since 2021; Congress would have to wait till a vacancy to eliminate a seat.

Still: I think it remains a good plan!

📺 I’ll always love this story/event. One of many examples of Black creators having a HUGE impact on pop culture.

This episode took MILLIONS of viewers away from CBS during Super Bowl XXVI’s halftime to the point in which it forced the NFL to make big changes for Super Bowl halftime entertainment. 🏈
