However, you are not the authority; SCOTUS is.
We are no longer a nation of laws. We are nation of SCOTUS opinions.
America, meet your nine emperors.

That is tragic. And we must correct that immediately.However, you are not the authority; SCOTUS is.

So was slavery at one time. We can restore constitutional government. Will we? I have no idea. But it can be done.Jefferson tried to stop the whole thing but could not. It is now accepted as the law of the land.
“We must restore constitutional government”
Such is the ignorant nonsense of the TPM and others on the ridiculous right.
The United States is currently functioning under Constitutional government, nothing needs to be ‘restored’ – the notion is moronic, baseless idiocy.
The Federal government is functioning as intended by the Founding Generation: a Constitutional Republic whose citizens are subject solely to the rule of law, not men – as men are incapable of ruling justly.
A Federal government afforded by the Constitution powers both expressed and implied (McCulloch v. Maryland (1819)).
A Federal government whose laws are supreme, where the Supreme Court determines what the Constitution means, as authorized by the doctrine of Judicial Review and Articles III and VI of the Constitution, and where rulings by the Supreme Court become the law of the land, binding on the states and local jurisdictions, who have no ‘right’ to ‘nullify’ or ‘ignore’ Federal law or the rulings of Federal courts (Cooper v. Aaron (1958)).
That conservatives, libertarians, and members of the TPM disagree with Supreme Court decisions because those rulings might conflict with errant, wrongheaded conservative dogma is of no consequence and devoid of merit.
PWe are so far removed from Constitutional government that we don't even know what it's supposed to look like anymore...

Arguably not since 1803, but certainly not since the 1860s.
All states need to reassert their authority under the 10th Amendment.
