> we don't have a constitutional court system in the US that is required to review bills before they can be enacted as law Ideally the legislative branch would serve this role by thoughtful application of their deep knowledge of the Constitution. But the incentives seem to drive them to performative displays of religious fervour and ignorance of founding principles. The Constitutionality question may be moot. I’m not convinced the Supreme Court is any less politically motivated than any other branch of the U.S. government. The quaint vision of a learned dispassionate body is crumbling, if it ever really existed in reality. Similar worrisome bills are surfacing in FL where bloggers would not be able to write about the governor, the lieutenant governor or state legislators without burdensome registration with the state of FL.
