This actually deserves its own post, so I'm going to say it again
A constitutional convention is a TERRIBLE IDEA.
I can't stress this enough. Think of every politician you know. Not just the one or two you like. Not just Donald Trump and the Republicans who backed him (and mostly flip flopped on that backing depending on what they thought would give them the best chance of being reelected), not just DeSantis, but all of them. Would you trust AOC to rewrite the constitution? Because you bet your ass the Democrats will be taking her input, if not actively having her write her version to put up for a vote. Even when it gets rejected, some of what she writes will make it in when the Republicans inevitably cave on important stances in the interest of another mostly one sided "compromise". Don't believe me? Look how many traitors are supporting the gun control lite that's currently going through congress.
Would you trust Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell to stand up for the principals of limited government and personal freedom? Would you trust the people voting on any new constitution to even read it, let alone understand what it is they're voting for? Would you trust the voting machines to properly tally ratification votes? Would you trust groups like BLM and Everytown for Gun Safety to have input? Would you trust politicians with ties to China, Soros, and the WEF to put the interests of the country ahead of global interests? Would you trust the media to accurately report on what's in each draft of the new constitution? Would you trust Google and Facebook to not censor the drafts that get put online? Would you trust any of these people or groups with your rights?
Think of everyone you talk to online. Think of your friends and family. Think of your coworkers. Would you want them rewriting the constitution? Would you trust them with your rights?
If the answer to a single one of these questions isn't an emphatic "hell yes!" then you can't support a constitutional convention. Rewriting the constitution now would be a disaster. We would lose more than we gain, if we even gain anything. The country is way too big for a consensus. Any document will be a mess of conflicting interests all trying to get their agendas passed. Our rights will be, at best, a distant 10th or 11th place in the drafting of a new constitution. At worst, they won't even be considered. Our politicians don't study the classic Greek and Roman philosophers. They don't have their morals informed by religion or family or study of history. The only philosophy they read are Marks and Engels, Osteen and Coulter, Vice and TMZ. The only morals they have are informed in most cases by decades in Washington. There is no one alive right now who I would trust in rewriting the constitution. Not even myself. As a society, we aren't equipped for it, morally or emotionally. Whatever fantasy you have of rewriting the constitution to be everything you want it to be will never come true. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. Anyone who tries is either incredibly stupid, or lying to you. Don't be a fool. Don't let the enemies of this country and our constitution rewrite the very foundation of our laws.

Left-wing politics is not a threat to America, but a source of its strength and greatness. Leftists have been at the forefront of the struggles for democracy, equality, and human rights in American history. They have created and defended the programs that protect the dignity and well-being of millions of Americans, such as labor rights, social security, and the New Deal. These programs are not handouts, but expressions of solidarity and mutual aid. To destroy leftism would be to betray the ideals and values that America stands for. Leftism is not anti-American, but the essence of its spirit .

Desantis Encounters Resistance In Florida
Desantis Encounters Resistance In Florida As Electorate Grows Weary Of Battle Against Woke Culture In an unexpected twist, the political landscape in Florida took a surprising turn as a series of culture war proposals championed by Governor Ron DeSantis faced rejection in the state’s legislature. The failure of these bills, which included a controversial proposal to ban rainbow flags from public buildings, signifies a notable shift in the dynamics of Florida’s political scene and suggests a growing pushback against the governor’s aggressive “war on woke” initiatives.
Governor Ron DeSantis, known for his staunch conservative stance and unwavering commitment to what he terms the “war on woke,” has been a polarizing figure in Florida politics. His proposed bills were emblematic of a broader national trend where politicians seek to address what they perceive as a threat to traditional values and push back against what they see as excessive political correctness.
The rejection of the bill banning rainbow flags from public buildings is particularly noteworthy, as it reflects a tangible resistance to what critics argue is an infringement on individual freedoms and an attempt to stifle expression of diverse identities. The rainbow flag, a symbol of LGBTQ+ pride, has become a widely recognized emblem of inclusivity and acceptance, and the attempt to prohibit its display in public spaces sparked considerable controversy and opposition.
This legislative setback for Governor DeSantis may signal a growing dissatisfaction among lawmakers and constituents alike with the perceived overreach of the “war on woke” initiatives. It appears that a more moderate faction within the legislature, as well as a groundswell of public sentiment, has coalesced to resist these culture war measures, emphasizing a desire for a more inclusive and tolerant political environment.
The rejection of these bills underscores the complex and evolving nature of culture war issues in American politics. While some segments of the population may support a conservative agenda, there is an equally vocal and active constituency advocating for a more progressive and inclusive approach. Florida’s legislature’s refusal to pass these controversial measures may signal a broader shift in priorities, as lawmakers respond to the diverse opinions and values of their constituents.
It remains to be seen how this rejection will impact Governor DeSantis’ political standing and whether he will modify his approach in response to the pushback. The outcome suggests that even in politically charged environments, there is a limit to how far culture war initiatives can go without facing resistance, as demonstrated by the unexpected defeat of these proposals in Florida’s legislature.
