War South Dakota Bill Aims to Nullify Joe Biden’s Executive Orders - “Lol Sanctuary State”

I can’t say I’m a fan of half the country ignoring whatever President is in power going forward, but democrats sowed this seed with how they governed California.



“Legislation introduced in the South Dakota House of Representatives seeks to give the state’s attorney general the authority to review executive orders from President Joe Biden and potentially nullify any order deemed unconstitutional.

State Rep. Aaron Aylward (R-Harrisburg) introduced HB 1194, which is described as an act “to authorize the review of certain executive orders issued by the President of the United States.”


The process to potentially nullify an executive order, which by nature bypasses congressional approval, “begins with a review by the Executive Council of the Legislative Research Board, followed by a referral from the Council to the attorney general and the governor,” South Dakota news station KELO-TV reported last week. “Once the referral has been made, the attorney general may examine the order to determine whether the state can seek an exemption or declare it unconstitutional.”

The bill specifies that Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg could exempt South Dakota from any law or order “that restricts a person’s rights or that is determined … to be unconstitutional” if the law or order relates to the following:

  1. A pandemic or other public health emergency
  2. The regulation of natural resources
  3. The regulation of the agricultural industry
  4. The regulation of land use
  5. The regulation of the financial sector through the imposition of environmental, social, or governance standards, or
  6. The regulation of the constitutional right to keep and bear arms”
 
Power is supposed to flow up from the bottom in the United States anyway so I can't even begin to give a shit. It is, however, a sign that the states no longer want to answer to a central authority. I'm at least glad to see that the states have some balls and aren't taking this bullshit laying down.
 
And this is how the Right needs to fight back effectively.

The Left hits you, you hit them back twice as hard.
They ban or attack someone on the Right, you do the same to someone on the Left.

It is basic Game Theory.

None of this crap from the Right about pretending to be grown ups and valuing free speech or the rule of law.

The Left will scream and cry like a child about how their own tactics are being used against them and how fucking evil the Right is for daring to do so.

Everyone on both sides realizes that no one is going to win and the Old Wise Men get brought out from both sides and an end is put to the dangerous and juvenile games the Left has been playing.

And then everyone goes back to getting actual shit that matters done.
 
Isn't South Dakota one of those states that tries to unconstitutionally restrict abortion? I think I'd not trust them to decide what is unconstitutional
I don't have any purview to what their local politics are, but I stand by what I said about power flowing up from the bottom, the president is not meant to be a king.

Also, what's your opinion on sanctuary states?

So basically:
He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue! That's the Chicago way.

Yes.

Or
The only winning move is not to play.

Tit for Tat is the most fundamentally stable strategy for two player games. It is not entirely that simply with modern game theory but it is close enough that if the Republicans continue to grow a spine with moves like this one we could all be back to a somewhat normal way of governing ourselves.

And unlike Nuclear Weapons and Mutual Assured Destruction, the same game theory principals applied to governments and legislation don't have the danger of still having the weapons lying around when everyone stops playing.
