Earlier this week, Ian Millhiser, the Supreme Court 'reporter' for Vox, wrote what is possibly the most anti-American articles we have seen in quite some time.
Millhiser is a Marxist propagandist and hack who vomits anti-American crap for a delusional, leftist website. So, what you're about to read, while pitiful, is not at all unusual for him and his neurotic ilk.
It's one thing for the left to wail and gnash their teeth about Trump. We're used to that. But Millhiser took this to a completely lower level of insanity this week when he argued that our founding document, the United States Constitution is bad and needs to be completely rewritten.
Ian Millhiser (@imillhiser) ~ The United States Constitution is actually quite bad.

We're not going to go through the entire article. First of all, we don't want to punish our readers in that way, More importantly, last night, Twitchy's Aaron Walker wrote a deep dive into the Vox article, decimating Millhiser's arguments paragraph by paragraph. We highly recommend reading that article to understand how flimsy and even seditious Millhiser's case is.
In summary, Millhiser argues that the Constitution prevents his party from exerting complete control over the American people because it is designed to protect OUR rights and limit the government's powers, not the other way around.
Here is his conclusion:
Realistically, turning the United States into a nation where every vote counts equally — and where each voter is actually able to shape the judiciary — would require rewriting its Constitution. Until that happens, Democrats like Harris will struggle to win elections even when most Americans support them. And Democratic presidents will increasingly be at the mercy of Republicans in both the Senate and the courts.
Every vote DOES count equally in America. Assuming Democrats aren't manufacturing them, that is.
And no, Ian. Even if Kamala wins the popular vote, that does not mean that most Americans support her.
But the fundamental fact Millhiser misses is that this is what the Constitution is designed to do. And when Republicans hold the Presidency and majorities in Congress, it limits them the same way it limits Democrats when they are in control.
As Walker noted last night, this is a feature, not a bug.
Isaiah L. Carter (@IsaiahLCarter) ~ I'm not clicking this. If YOU believe the United States Constitution is bad, then please take your privileged, self-righteous Commie ass to a country that practices your religion.
Cav (@cavannastan) ~ FYSA: If you ever find yourself posting stuff like this, you are, in fact, the bad guy.
mark safranski (@zenpundit) ~ A reminder that the U.S. Constitution was written explicitly to frustrate the kind of people who write for this publication.
Hey, Ian ...
