Let’s talk about the Administrative State (A Thread) You may have been seeing the terms the administrative state, the deep state, the fourth branch of government or the swamp being thrown around. But what exactly is it? It escapes definition, and that is by design.

@CodyLibolt Hard no

@not_our_guy Nothing shows confidence in your position like blocking the opposition lol

Integrating church & state confuses the mission of both. The church, as individuals & as a body, is called to love all people. The state has a duty to protect the lives, liberties & property of its own citizens. 5/5

@creatrix_ttv Pigeon unemployment is a massive issue. We can fix it

@SWENGDAD Hans Zimmer is not cheesy, sir. And Gladiator was released in 2000

Now this is what a good executive order looks like.

@elonmusk This isn’t so clear cut. The will of the people expressed in the Constitution is the supreme law. The courts are duty bound to strike down any act of Congress that’s contrary to the constitution. This is the way

@ChrisSkates81 @ClassicLibera12 @PhilWMagness @esmultivac What I would say is that neither the President nor judges have power themselves besides what is granted to them by us via the constitution. I don’t see it as power contest as much as a legal one. Whichever one has the strongest legal case has the most power.

@ChrisSkates81 @ClassicLibera12 @PhilWMagness @esmultivac Which is why the framers divided the legislature in two and bolstered the judiciary. I don’t think Phil is arguing that *any* judge is as *powerful* as the President. He’s saying that the judiciary is co-equal to the executive and judges are subordinate to SCOTUS, not POTUS.

Was it something I said?

@IMPERATORAUS Real Romans hate kings

@GEMartinez2024 @ConceptualJames Hey you’re onto something there

@PhilWMagness The partisan mind can’t comprehend that being a constitutionalist sometimes pits you against the left and sometimes against the so-called “new right”

@PhilWMagness Vermeule invoking separation of powers is hilarious.

@ChrisSkates81 @ClassicLibera12 @PhilWMagness @esmultivac Let me help out here. You’re trying to say that a district judge holds less power than the chief executive. But what you actually said is that the judiciary is inferior to the executive and so constitutionalists are taking issue with that.
