If your understanding of the Constitution changes based on the identity of the individual/s who would currently use the asserted power, it's not about the Constitution.

Question:

Could a property tax cut actually increase your tax bill?

It sounds counterintuitive, but cities and counties across Florida are already discussing how they would replace lost revenue if this amendment passes.

One option: non-ad valorem assessments.

These are charges that appear on your tax bill but generally are not reduced by homestead exemptions.

Fire protection.

Stormwater.

Road maintenance.

Special districts.

The services don’t disappear because the property tax revenue does.

The bills still have to be paid.

That’s why local governments may shift more costs to assessments and fees that aren’t affected by the exemption.

So here’s the question:

If your property taxes go down by $1,500, but your assessments and fees increase by $1,800, did you get a tax cut?

Long ago, America broke with the United Kingdom's censorial practices.

Now it's time for the UK to make a break with itself.

It's time for the country to embrace freedom of speech and the right to offend.

Just received a draft copy of the book jacket for my forthcoming work, “Until the Last Yoke is Broken: The Constitutional Vision of Frederick Douglass”! Hard to imagine that ~5 years of work is finally coming to life. Coming out October 2026!

The Constitution isn’t optional.

The point of the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement is to hassle the government.

It’s supposed to be difficult to search or arrest people. That’s not a bug; that’s a feature of our American republic.

[Eric Boehm @EricBoehm87]

Drives me absolutely insane that conservatives stole the "Don't Tread On Me" iconography from real libertarians, then turned around and became bootlickers and apologists for authoritarianism

[Corie Whalen @CorieWhalen]

I’ve already been called a leftist today because I think people should be able to freely exercise their first and second amendment rights.

[Camille MacKenzie @CamRMacKenzie]

Short a judicial warrant, it violates the Fourth Amendment to forcibly enter a home for a search or arrest. If you think this is ok because it’s “only being used against illegal aliens” then you’re the reason the term slippery slope exists. You open this door and it won’t stop at illegals.

[Orin Kerr @OrinKerr]

Are there Fourth Amendment limits—and if so, what—on taking a person's picture and uploading it to a facial recognition database during a Terry stop for immigration violations?

No cases on this. And without a Bivens remedy, I'm not sure there will ever be any cases on this.

[Kenny Burgos @KennyBurgosNY]

The @NYCCouncil is set to lift the street vendor permit cap today.

Many have acknowledged this will allow more competition and lower street food prices.

I wonder where else we could apply that thinking.

[Patrick Jaicomo @pjaicomo]

It’s a sad reality in 2025 America that even “papers, please” isn’t enough to keep citizens and legal residents from being harassed by roving federal agents.

Not even valid, government-issued proof of legal status is good enough.

This is not what a free society looks like.

The same people trying to turn illegal mafia-backed gambling by athletes into an indictment on fans legally making parlays online are those pedantic dorks who call it "sports ball."
