It is a myth that the #USConstitution established three coëqual branches of government. In fact, the legislative was originally much stronger, and rough parity emerged in stages. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1803, in the #MarburyVMadison ruling, #SCOTUS granted itself #JudicialReview.
The Rule of Law — applied faithfully, without fear or favor — is a cornerstone of American Exceptionalism.
As Secretary of State, I will always defend the Constitution and uphold the law equally for every Georgian.

Correct. ☣️☢️ Yet if those who control the federal #enforcement arm make these laws, #MarburyVMadison becomes irrelevant a. Practical matter. If you can't / won't enforce MVM, it becomes #scofflaw, like #jaywalking.
In #FAFO2025, the #Constitution h become merely the highest scofflaw of the land.

apnews.com/article/supr... What Marbury v. Madison means for the Supreme Court — and America
A screenshot of a tweet from Jim Himes (@jahimes) replying to a tweet from Desiree (@DesireeAmerica4). Jim Himes' tweet reads: "Glad you asked. Since February 24, 1803." Below, Desiree's tweet states: "An Obama-appointed judge just threatened Trump with arrest if he doesn’t restore every dime of paused funding. Since when does a judge have the power to override the President like this? 🤔🔥" The image attached to Desiree’s tweet features a split image of a judge in a black robe on the left and former President Barack Obama on the right, with a serious expression and his finger on his chin. Significance of February 24, 1803: This date marks the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Marbury v. Madison, which established the principle of judicial review. This ruling affirmed the judiciary's power to review and invalidate laws or executive actions that violate the Constitution, explaining why judges have the authority to check presidential power.

Settled law for over 2 centuries.
Thank goodness for #MarburyVMadison being upheld! Still, though, there should be an amendment to write it directly into the Constitution
