This lecture outlines the foundational principles of federalism in the United States, explaining the division of power between the federal government and individual states. It defines federalism by contrasting it with unitary and confederate systems, then details how the U.S. Constitution establishes this structure through enumerated powers for the federal government and reserved powers for the states via the Tenth Amendment. The lecture also highlights crucial constitutional clauses like the Necessary and Proper Clause, the Supremacy Clause, and the Commerce Clause, discussing their impact on the balance of power and examining their interpretation through landmark Supreme Court cases such as McCulloch v. Maryland, Gibbons v. Ogden, and United States v. Lopez, showcasing the evolving nature of federal authority.Federalism as a Core Principle: The lecture emphasizes that federalism is not merely a theoretical concept but is "at the very core of the United States constitutional system." It represents a "sophisticated division of powers" between the national government and the individual states, designed to achieve a "balance between national unity and the preservation of state autonomy." This system contrasts with unitary systems (centralized power) and confederations (states retaining dominant sovereignty).Constitutional Basis for Federalism: The document outlines the specific constitutional provisions that establish and delineate federalism:Enumerated Powers (Article One, Section Eight): The Constitution lists specific powers granted to the federal government, such as regulating interstate commerce, coining money, declaring war, and raising armies. These are presented as a "carefully selected set of responsibilities deemed essential for the national government to effectively function."Implied Powers (Necessary and Proper Clause, Article One, Section Eight): This clause grants Congress the power to enact laws "necessary and proper" for carrying out its enumerated powers. It is described as a "vital source of flexibility," allowing the federal government to adapt and effectively exercise its responsibilities.Reserved Powers (Tenth Amendment): This amendment states that "the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." This reinforces the principle of limited federal power and affirms the states' broad authority over matters not specifically assigned to the national government, including "health, safety, welfare, and morals" (police powers).Supremacy Clause (Article Six, Clause Two): This clause establishes the hierarchy of law, declaring the Constitution, federal laws, and treaties as the "supreme Law of the Land." It ensures that "federal law will prevail" in cases of direct conflict with state law and prevents states from undermining valid federal laws.The Significance of the Commerce Clause: The Commerce Clause (Article One, Section Eight, Clause Three), granting Congress the power "to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes," is highlighted as a "most significant and frequently litigated sources of federal authority." Its interpretation has "profoundly influenced the balance of power between the federal government and the states," reflecting "evolving societal needs and philosophical perspectives."Landmark Supreme Court Cases and their Impact: The lecture reviews key cases illustrating the evolution of federalism and the interpretation of federal power:Federalism, Division of Powers, Constitutional Law, Supreme Court, State Sovereignty, Commerce Clause, Judicial Review, Implied Powers, Sovereign Immunity, Civil Rights
This lecture explores the concept of federalism and the division of powers between the federal government and the states, highlighting constitutional provisions, landmark Supreme Court cases, and ongoing debates surrounding the balance of power.

Maryland shaped federalism.Debates continue over the balance of power between state and national governments.Sovereign immunity limits individuals' ability to sue states.Federalism can promote local solutions but may also entrench inequality.Reform proposals include re-examining sovereign immunity and federal power limits.Federalism, Division of Powers, Constitutional Law, Supreme Court, State Sovereignty, Commerce Clause, Judicial Review, Implied Powers, Sovereign Immunity, Civil Rights

What are the legal implications of the unprecedented mass pardoning of the January 6th rioters? What does it say about American rule of law? President Biden's DOJ prosecuted nearly 1,600 of the January 6, 2021, rioters—many for acts of shocking violence against police and government offices. On January 20, newly sworn-in President Trump, in one of his first official acts, issued a sweeping grant of clemency to all of the rioters charged in connection with the attack on the Capitol attack. He pardoned most defendants and commuted the sentences of 14 members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers militia, most of whom had been convicted of seditious conspiracy. The response from some of these violent rioters since the pardons has been alarming.“The people who did this, they need to feel the heat. We need to find and put them behind bars for what they did,” said Enrique Tarrio, the former national Proud Boys leader, sentenced to a 22-year sentence on seditious conspiracy charges, on Alex Jones' podcast soon after his pardon. Our guests today are Stanford Law Professor Shirin Sinnar and former DOJ prosecutor Brendan Ballou.Sinnar's scholarship, including a recent study of hate groups, focuses on the legal treatment of political violence, the procedural dimensions of civil rights litigation, and the role of institutions in protecting individual rights and democratic values in the national security contextBallou was a lawyer at the Department of Justice for five years. He resigned on January 23 soon after President Trump's pardons. In a New York Times opinion essay, he wrote: “For while some convicted rioters seem genuinely remorseful, and others appear simply ready to put politics behind them, many others are emboldened by the termination of what they see as unjust prosecutions. Freed by the president, they have never been more dangerous.” He graduated from Stanford Law in 2016.Links:Shirin Sinnar >>> Stanford Law pageNew York Times piece by Brendan Ballou >>> I Prosecuted the Capitol Rioters.

The union is facing a storm of despotism, with federal overreach threatening to drown the sovereignty of the states. This lesson examines how the principles of state sovereignty and nullification can serve as a powerful remedy to counteract the pervasive influence of federal power, drawing inspiration from historical allegories and the wisdom of the Founders.
The Founders designed the U.S. Senate to preserve the state sovereignty and keep the federal government in check. However, the ratification of the 17th Amendment severed the direct connection between state legislatures and their representatives in Congress. This lesson explores the dangers of placing party loyalty above constitutional principles and the impact it has had on state sovereignty and the functioning of the Republic.
The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798, authored by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, are key documents for understanding the principles of state sovereignty and federalism. The principles set forth in these documents are as relevant today as they were over two centuries ago. By understanding them, citizens and state legislators can better appreciate the constitutional wisdom of nullification as a tool to resist federal overreach.
When the American colonies declared independence from Great Britain in 1776, they asserted that each of the 13 colonies was becoming a free, sovereign, and independent state. This idea of state sovereignty means that each state has full control over its own government, free from external control. The Treaty of Paris, signed in 1783, which officially ended the Revolutionary War, provides clear evidence that the Founders understood and affirmed this concept of state sovereignty.
The states are not just regions; they are independent entities that voluntarily agreed to join together to form the United States. The balance of power between the states and the federal government is central to the concepts of state sovereignty, federalism, and states' rights. These ideas are rooted in the belief that the states, which originally agreed to form the Union, have a crucial role in ensuring that the federal government does not overstep its bounds.
In the United States, the balance of power between the federal government and the states is governed by the principles of federalism and state sovereignty. Federalism is the system in which power is divided between a central government and individual states, while state sovereignty refers to the idea that states have independent authority and control over their own affairs. A key aspect of this relationship is the authority of the states to resist or refuse to enforce federal laws that they believe overstep constitutional boundaries.
The concept of nullification often faces harsh criticism, with proponents being labeled as radicals or secessionists. However, nullification is rooted in the very principles that the Founders, including Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, championed to protect the union from federal overreach. This lesson explores the historical and logical basis for nullification, refuting the misconceptions that surround it.

In a bid to strengthen the actions of individual states in addressing illegal immigration, a House Republican member, has proposed new legislation preventing the federal government from interfering in the construction of border barriers. This is in response to a recent move by the federal government to dismantle razor wire at the U.S. border with Mexico, a decision that has drawn strong criticism among Republicans. The legislation, known as the Restricting Administration Zealots from Obliging Raiders (RAZOR) Act, was announced by Rep. Mike Collins from Georgia. The RAZOR Act is a consequence of a recent Supreme Court ruling which granted the Biden administration a temporary reprieve to dismantle razor wire installations in Texas pending the resolution of a lawsuit by the state. Collins was moved to take action, stating that the act would effectively disallow the federal government from removing the border barriers installed by Texas or any other state in the United States. 'If the Supreme Court will not permit states to defend their sovereignty and the integrity of our nation's borders, it's incumbent on Congress to step in. And that is precisely what the RAZOR Act is designed to do,' Collins commented after making his announcement. He strongly believes that the current administration's policies are making it easier for illegal aliens to enter the US, leading to a severe strain on the country's resources. In his view, the removal of state-erected barriers in Texas by the federal government is not justified, other than as a direct attempt to aid the inflow of illegal immigrants. He sees the Supreme Court siding with the 'America Last' policies of the Biden administration and underlines the importance of standing in solidarity with Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who is putting up a firm defense for his state's sovereignty and the country at large. Ever since Collins shared the news about the proposed RAZOR Act, he has been vocal in expressing his gratitude to various GOP members for their support as co-sponsors of the new legislation. Aligning with them demonstrates their collective stance favoring a more robust border protection effort than what is currently maintained by the federal government. This development came out in the wake of a narrow 5-4 decision by the Supreme Court, favoring the Biden administration's appeal to intervene and lift an appellate-level injunction. The Department of Justice had argued against the barriers, asserting that they were making it difficult for Border Patrol agents to effectively carry out their duties when it comes to those crossing the Rio Grande River. In defense of the efforts by Texas on border protection, Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican, has expressed his dissent against what he believes is the Biden administration's failure in enforcing immigration laws. He proclaimed that Texas has every legal right to protect itself and its borders. Abbott went on further to promise continuing additions of razor wire to deter illegal migrations. Greg Abbott has found widespread support from fellow Republican state heads, who have rallied behind the proposition to protect the Texas border. A faction within the GOP has even hinted at the idea of ignoring the Supreme Court ruling and proceeding with border protections. At the same time, there are voices from the House's Democratic members urging President Biden to exert federal control over the Texas National Guard. Interestingly, this issue has bridged party gaps in Congress, with an emergent consensus on a paradigm shift from the status quo, even when there's a divergence in opinions on the appropriate action to take on the border crisis. The escalating rate of migrant crossings and the resultant pressure on sanctuary cities is a cause for concern for both Democrat and Republican leaders alike. Indeed, last week, fourteen Democrats from the House unexpectedly chose to join ranks with the majority of Republicans, voicing their disapproval of the current administration's border policies, which they perceive as promoting 'open borders.' This action represented a clear break from the standard party line. Worthy of note is the fact that discussions on a possible border deal in the Senate are currently underway and these are enjoying bipartisan input. The discord on the national response to the border crisis has nudged both parties towards finding a unified solution to mitigate the impact of illegal immigration on the country. At the center of these immigration discussions is the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas. His role in the Senate's immigration negotiations is crucial despite facing possible impeachment proceedings at the committee level due to a perceived lack of adequate control over the border crisis. With such a divergence of viewpoints, the issue of border control has become one of the key topics on the national agenda. What is clear, though, is that despite political differences, the resolution to this problem requires collective agreement and subsequent action. Although the political backdrop is complex, the move by Collins to introduce the RAZOR Act underlines the depth of feeling within the Republican community about defending state sovereignty and tighter controls over illegal immigration at U.S. borders. His bill aligns with a trend towards more control by states and increased enforcement of existing laws. The debate continues as to the best path forward in addressing and curbing illegal migration at borders. While some see merit in a more venerable Federal intervention, others are calling for more state autonomy and stricter border control measures. The RAZOR Act and its champion, Collins, offer an important perspective on this critical issue, pointing to the divide in America's approach to border control. Whatever the ultimate outcome, it is becoming increasingly clear that America's future immigration policy must strike a careful balance between maintaining strong borders and respecting human rights – all while ensuring the political reality aligns with the nations' immigration objectives.

## Border Security Border security remains a complex and divisive issue in American politics. Securing national borders is integral to a country's sovereignty and security. The United States is no exception to this rule, especially when it comes to its southern border with Mexico. While calls for a secure border resonate with a wide range of the populace, methodologies and the underpinning reasons for a secure border are subjects of political contention. For many, the focus is on curbing illegal immigration and its associated challenges such as human trafficking, drug smuggling, and potential security threats. Recent Supreme Court decisions pertaining to border security have brought into sharp relief the intricate balance between federal and state authority. These high-profile cases highlight the constitutional debates that arise when states take unilateral action to fortify their borders, as seen with the state of Texas's efforts to combat the influx of illegal crossings. While the federal government holds the primary responsibility for securing the nation's borders, state-level initiatives have underscored a persistent tension and a desire for more robust enforcement measures that reflect local priorities and concerns. ## Presidential Politics and Memorabilia Turning to a lighter note in political discourse, the significance of presidential history and memorabilia in shaping public consciousness cannot be overstated. Collecting political memorabilia is more than a hobby; it's a way through which enthusiasts engage with the nation's political heritage. Items such as campaign posters, Toby jugs, and unique trinkets serve as tangible connections to the political giants of the past, like Robert A. Taft and Herbert Hoover. Taft, known affectionately as Mr. Republican, was emblematic of the America First brand of conservatism during the mid-20th century. ## Legislative Dynamics and Slow Starts The Iowa legislative session, mirroring other state legislative bodies, often experiences periods of rapid activity juxtaposed with slower, more contemplative times. Factors contributing to these ebbs and flows include holidays, weather disruptions, and even the occurrence of political events such as caucuses. Legislators find themselves navigating complex schedules while aiming to meet constituents' needs and address pressing legislative matters. This pace can influence the type of legislation that advances. While some sessions see a flurry of significant bills, others may focus on fewer, more substantial legislative efforts that require meticulous drafting and consideration. ## Scrutiny of Educational Policy In the realm of education, the AEA bill currently commands attention, indicative of the delicate balance required when it comes to policymaking in this sector. The dialogue around this piece of legislation reflects broader conversations about the allocation of educational resources and the implications for property taxes - all of which are critical to determining the sustainability of funding models and their impact on taxpayers. Additionally, there are legislative efforts that aim to enhance civic education. These bills, while not always at the forefront of policy debates, underscore the importance of inculcating a robust understanding of history and governance among students. Such initiatives strive to fortify the fabric of democracy through informed citizenry.

Analysts of Russia's war in Ukraine have often – since its inception in 2014 – highlighted a seeming contradiction. On the one hand, Russia is violating the sovereignty of a neighbouring state in pursuit of its own interests. On the other, Russia simultaneously condemns Western interventions in places such as Syria, Iraq, and Libya, as well as Serbia back in 1999, on the basis that they breach the principle of non-interference in other states.So are Russian leaders just being inconsistent? Or is there more going on? Dr Kalina Zhekova, Lecturer in Political Science here in the UCL Department of Political Science, joins us for this week's episode. A specialist in Russian approaches to military intervention and state sovereignty, Kalina's latest paper looks at elite-level Russian discourse during the 2014 Ukraine crisis.

The first American Civil War was every bit as vicious and hate-filled as the second. And... like the second, it eventually resulted in amending the US Constitutional to try and make things better. It all started when the state of Georgia decided that it wasn't going to pay the guy who sold their militia supplies during the war. It led to an intense debate during ratification over the concept of State Sovereignty, then went before the US Supreme Court, where the court... got it "wrong." On February 7, 1794 We the People of the United States made that absolutely clear. Or... did we? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/plausibly-live/message

On June 29, 2022, in Oklahoma v. Castro-Huerta, the U.S. Supreme Court held in a 5-4 decision that the state of Oklahoma had concurrent jurisdiction with the federal government to prosecute crimes committed by non-Indians against Indians in Indian Country. Indian Law & Gaming Practice Group Chair Mike McBride and associate Greg Buzzard discuss the importance of the change in composition to the Supreme Court between McGirt and Castro-Huerta, including the court's decision to apply the Bracker balancing test for the first time in a criminal law case. They also examine the potential impact of the decision on states with considerably different Tribal jurisdictions and demographics to those in Oklahoma.About Mike McBride and Greg BuzzardConnect with Crowe & Dunlevy:Website | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn
