Ahh, so now it's a state doing it, not the federal government, so that will be different, right?
He’s doing it because he wants to show fealty to his tangerine deity. States can overreach, too, but at least Abbot doesn’t need to falsely claim the presence of an insurrection to trample on his constituents’ rights.
States rights only when it suits them.
