    My long time legal advisor Andy Oldham was just confirmed to the Federal Court of Appeals, 5th Circuit. He’s a strict constitutionalist cut from the same conservative mold as @SCOTUS Justice Alito for whom he clerked. Check out this bio. #txlege #tcot https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Oldham …

        I love how strict constitutionalists find the courts so important to advance their agenda instead of passing legislation the majority of the country wants like Democrats historically do. For a federalist group you all pay a lot of fealty to the federal courts.

        Can you clarify timing on "long time," Governor? July 28 will be three years since AG Paxton's felony-indictments which Texas Constitution is clear on his removal. You & #txlege took oaths to uphold the Constitution, yet've done nothing for 3 years! Did Andy advise you on this?

        "Strict constructionist" is a BS label for an activist judge who wants to impose a narrow "conservative" (anti-rights) political perspective on every decision.

        Actually, an originalist preserves the rights that were understood to be covered by the Bill of Rights and the rest of the Constitution. Until such a time as the Constitution is legally amended, preserving those rights protects all of us.

        Fallacious. No one knows what the Framers would have done about anything. All those rights you speak of are inherently ambiguous, so claiming you are going to “preserve” them means no more than applying your preferred interpretation to them.

        There is a ton of history in regards to the Constitution, everything from the Federalist papers to debates in the state legislatures to letters from the Founders discussing it. So your point is fallacious. It's very well understood what the Constitution meant when it was passed.

        Awesome, considering every single Senate Democrat voted against him, I'm sure Judge Oldham will be a truly great jurist!

        I am a medical professional that needs CBD oil for pain. CBD oil from the marijuana plant is far superior to the CBD oil from hemp, but unless I visit Colorado I have to make do with what I can legally buy in Texas and that is hemp derived CBD.
