The federal government has long ignored the fact that its powers are “few and defined,” as James Madison described them in Federalist 45, while describing the powers removed to the states as “numerous and indefinite.”
When Congress ignores limits on federal power, it becomes less capable of funding and overseeing core functions that the federal government is uniquely and unambiguously authorized to perform under the Constitution.
This is tragic.
It’s time for a “constitutional reset.”
Hear it from Madison himself! 👇
Shocking stat of the day
May 2026 govt data showed 81% of all individual and corporate income taxes went to paying interest on the national debt.
Full year of 2026, the US govt estimates 43% of individual and corporate incomes taxes will go to interest on the national debt.
Most of government spending for defense, and all of the various agencies, is funded by new debt. Because most of the tax revenue now has to go to interest payments first before anything else is paid.
