@JasonGregor@spittinchiclets Tough ratio. You’re a 🤡 for defending the biggest clown in sports “journalism.”
Unsubscribed from your channel, which is boring tbh 😂

Grateful for the opportunity to work with such talented, cool headed and even affable people!
This is also a great podcast for students who might be asking , what comes next? https://t.co/mvT0Pp2kHN
"But experience amply justifies the view that our federal system, with the degree of flexibility that it permits, can be adapted to crises of the present and future as successfully as it has been to those of the past.
As an instrument of positive government, it possesses—at least for a nation as large and diverse as ours—a clear advantage over a strongly centralized government. In helping to bolster the principle of consent; in facilitating wide participation in government; in furnishing training grounds for leaders; in maintaining the habit of local initiative; in providing laboratories for research and experimentation in the art of government; in fostering competition among lower levels of government; in serving as outlets for local grievances and for political aspirations—in all these and many other ways, the existence of many relatively independent and responsible governments strengthens rather than weakens our capacity for government. On the whole, therefore, the enduring values of our federal system fully warrant every effort to preserve and strengthen its essence."
Report of the Commission on Intergovernmental Relations, June 28 1955
According to this version of Post-liberalism, it is naive to rely on institutions like federalism to “control the effects” of faction.
Maybe.
More naive is the idea that we can “extirpate” the ideas of our political enemies , as long as we do it politely and with a smile:
Federalism is widely considered to be the key innovation of the American Constitutional order. It was once called "the only patentable idea" in the US Constitution.
Federalism is not a uniquely American idea.

Madison's #Federalist No. 39 is a response to the charge that the new Constitution would lead to a consolidation of power, and therefore, the "total destruction" of state governments.
The "real character" of the new government is:
-federal in its foundation
-mixed in its sources of power
-national in its operation on individuals
-not national in scope of power
-neither wholly national nor wholly federal examined by the authority by which amendments are to be made

@SportsnetSpec is starting to feel the pressure. @EdmontonOilers fans, it’s time to send this garbage human packing. He can’t ask a question without insulting our players. Everything he says is demeaning . or some kind of bizarre personal score settling.
Spector has to go.
