The Trump Onslaught on International Law and Institutions – Lawfare

3. Slow-down, or halt, in new international agreements. The writing has been on the wall for new international agreements ever since President Trump formally abandoned the Trans-Pacific Partnership on the third day of his presidency. A few days later a draft Executive Order, Moratorium on New Multilateral Treaties, leaked. The EO was only a draft, and it is limited to Article II treaties, which form only a sliver of U.S. international agreements. (It’s not clear if the Trump Team realizes that treaties are rare.)

An ‘agreement’ is a treaty if it is being treated as such. This Harvard lawyer’s argument proves that agreement are treaties, according to the Left.

Democrats Turn The Clock Back To 1860

As I’ve always said, Democrats in particular, and liberals in general, are anti-Constitution traitors.

Vox Popoli: Pull some hair

There’s an old joke about a boy who complains to his mother that his little sister keeps pulling his hair.

“Oh,” responds the mother, “she doesn’t know that it hurts.”

A few minutes later, the mother hears the girl scream and runs into the other room. “She knows now,” the boy explains.

There’s a lesson for Republicans in that old joke, if they’re smart enough to absorb it.
