$9 trillion later and the climate keeps changing – go figure!
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – According to the so-called “experts,” we all should have sweated to death decades ago, but we haven’t.

A federal judge said no, not because of the state law, but because they claim the federal law, which was not made pursuant to the Constitution, supersedes it.
