U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions doesn’t like nullification. He attacked the principles in recent statements about California’s sanctuary state policies. In doing so, he sounded just like Rachel Maddow.
In this episode of Thoughts from Maharrey Head, I talk about it. I compare the ideas of Maddow and Sessions (there’s not much to contrast) and explain how John C. Calhoun holds is the figure that holds the two together. I also take on the absurd notion that the Civil War “settled” the issue of nullification and secession.
