There are actual laws around this. Nixon had a habit of doing this sort of thing so in response Congress passed laws to set some rules on how the...
Probably not but it hasn't been tested. There have been laws passed in the 70s that largely formalize with the OMB can do in this situation. The...
I should add one thing. I dont think I emphasized how bad Trump was for rural Democrats. Democrats had a 100+ year hold on the state house in...
Its out of the ordinary only in that Trump broke the Democratic base there (Eastern Kentucky coal country) and parts of rural Western Kentucky. We...
These aren't treaties. I feel like that's the part you are missing. These are voluntary agreements between two sovereign entities. States can't...
The IJC doesn't cover everything though. And it was actually the model for a lot of regional cooperation that exists beyond the original IJC...
By the way, it was never implemented but the Midwest was way ahead of California on this one. Six Midwestern states and Manitoba had a deal to...
Spain needs to hurry up and implement UK style de-evolution. The current structure isn't sustainable over the long term. Not to suggest that UK's...

If you're still bound by EU rules on food, environmental protection, etc.. what good is zeroing out tariffs? At that point, they'll still end up...
Even if there aren't crimes, we forget that Romney got absolutely destroyed in 2012 for his low effective tax rate. It seems like ages ago, but...
Singapore got its "tax haven" status because of two things. It has relatively low corporate tax rates and a large series of tax and financial...
In order for the UK to become the "Singapore" of Europe, it requires some sort of trade relationship that enables it to be one. A country can't be...
I think at this point, they'll try to filibuster and stall in the House of Lords in order to run out the clock until parliament is prorogued....
There were 21 Tories that voted for the motion so I guess all 21 will be ejected from the party tomorrow. So the government will have a working...
