Russ Feingold’s Fear and Loathing of Article Five

 Senator John Kennedy (LA-R) made a splash earlier this week exposing the ignorance of recent nominees to the federal bench about the constitution. One of his questions was about Article 5. Here

Interestingly enough, former senator Russ Feingold (WI-D) has co-authored a book about Article 5 and the pitfalls (from his perspective) of calling a Convention of States to amend the constitution. To Feingold and his co-author, Peter Prindville the possibility of such a convention is a fearsome prospect. Their book, “The Constitution in Jeopardy” is a warning of pending disaster to those who love big government.

Watching them discuss their work at the Marquette Law School, Lubar Center, which aired earlier this month was an enjoyable review of how far we’ve come towards using the amendment process to rein in the increasingly tyrannical nature of our own federal government. Image how many states will join the effort after more people understand just how much various federal agencies have injured them with the creation of the COVID virus and imposition of vaccine mandates to try to mitigate the damage they’ve caused. Watch

One of the organization’s the authors named who are working on bringing about a convention is Convention of States Action
