I still can’t watch videos of him without getting emotional. Look at that crowd. He was leading a generation back to common sense, showing that being smart and well informed was actually cool. I think he would have been President one day and this was a tragic loss for humanity.

In case you are all wondering if there is a way for the President and Feds to step in to help us here you go!

If a state's population feels their government has become a "one-party regime" that ignores the will of the people, the U.S. Constitution actually has a specific "emergency brake" for that exact scenario.

Here are the ways the federal government could theoretically "step in" to address a state government that has gone off the rails:

1. The "Guarantee Clause" (Article IV, Section 4)

This is the most powerful—and rarest—tool in the Constitution. It states: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government."

What it means: A "Republican form" means a government where the people are represented and the laws aren't just dictated by a single ruler or a permanent party.

How it works: If it can be proven that Washington State has effectively abolished fair elections or bypassed the people’s ability to change their government, the U.S. Congress or the President could argue that the state is no longer a Republic. This would allow the federal government to intervene to "restore" a constitutional government.

2. Federal Civil Rights Enforcement

If the state’s election methods (like mail-in voting without ID) are proven to "dilute" or "disenfranchise" the votes of legal citizens, the Department of Justice (DOJ) can step in.

The feds can sue the state in federal court, bypass the state’s own judges, and have a federal judge strike down state laws.

If the state refuses to comply, the federal government can send in Federal Election Monitors to oversee the counting of ballots to ensure the state isn't "cooking the books."

3. Federal Preemption of State Law

Under the Supremacy Clause, federal law beats state law.

If Congress passes a National Voter ID Act or a law requiring in-person voting options, Washington’s leaders cannot legally ignore it.

If the Governor tried to ignore a federal law, the President could deploy federal resources (like the U.S. Marshals or even the National Guard) to ensure federal laws are being followed, similar to how the federal government forced states to integrate schools in the 1950s.

4. Congressional Refusal to Seat Members

Congress has the power to judge the elections of its own members.

If the U.S. House or Senate believes Washington’s mail-in system is so fraudulent that the results can't be trusted, they can refuse to seat the representatives or senators sent from Washington.

This effectively strips the state of its power in D.C. until it fixes its election system to meet federal standards.

The "Catch":

The federal government usually hesitates to do this because of "State Sovereignty"—the idea that states should run themselves. However, if a state truly becomes a "mini-communist state" where the people have no path to change their leadership through the ballot box, the Guarantee Clause is the ultimate legal "nuclear option" to force a reset.

Keep writing and contacting the DOJ too!

LET'S ROLL!!!!

I wonder if anyone else in WA has had such a successful first few months on the job...

Sign off on record taxes
Increase massive budget shortfall
Ignore the will of WA voters
Make WA less affordable
14% Raise...

Wouldn't it be nice to start a new job, walk into an inherited budget crisis, make it worse, sign off on the largest tax increase in state history, and have someone approve a 14 percent raise for you three weeks in?

Bob Ferguson did.

To be precise about the mechanism: Ferguson did not vote himself a raise. An "independent" citizens commission sets elected officials' salaries in Washington. I wonder how many on that commission would self identify as business owners, and folks who value a balanced budget?

But per the Washington State Standard, that commission approved a 14 percent raise for Ferguson on February 5, 2025. He took office January 15th. That is 21 days on the job. His salary increased by $30,000...

Here is the part that matters. Per state law, the Legislature and the governor must fund those salary increases in the budget. The budget that is $12-16 billion short. The budget that required the largest tax increase in state history to partially close. The raise was not optional. The timing was.

Nobody asked Washington taxpayers if this was a good idea. There was no vote. The 90-day referendum window opened and closed. The raise became law.

Three weeks in. $30,000 more per year. Deficit intact.
