Once again, Ohio:
As every Ohio schoolkid learns, the Founding Fathers convened in 1787 to create the U.S. Constitution, which lays out the fundamental governmental and political structure of the United States.
Now, 238 years later, there’s a nationwide effort – including in the Ohio legislature – to hold a second constitutional convention, with the goal of passing amendments that rein in the power of the federal government.
So far, 19 state legislatures have passed resolutions calling for such a convention, and similar legislation has been introduced in 15 additional states, including Ohio. If all 15 of those states pass the resolution, it would meet the constitutional threshold needed to convene a convention.
...
What would the convention be about?
The Convention of the States initiative, a nonpartisan group founded in 2013 by conservative attorneys Michael Farris and Mark Meckler, has spent the past 12 years pushing state legislatures to pass identically worded resolutions calling for amendments on three topics:
Term limits for members of Congress and other federal officials
Imposing “fiscal restraints on the federal government”
Limiting “the power and jurisdiction of the federal government”
The Convention of the States picked those three topics because “they’re the ones that are not going to come out of Washington, DC, plain and simple,” said Diane Telles, the organization’s communication coordinator for Ohio.
The topics are broadly worded on purpose, as it will be up to the convention delegates to decide exactly what proposed amendments they want to send to the states for ratification, Telles said.
I'm sure they wouldn't talk about anything related to Trump, so we're all good.
"Constitutionally" allow this GOP Administration, President Leon, and thrall master Thiel to end the transition of power and entrench themselves as recognized Oligarchs until the Republic completely withers and its people are largely indentured in poverty in the new hierarchy

Wasn't Cohen known to be PoS briefly turning grift Private Equity in to success with Chewey and then back in to grift Private Equity? He was a vanguard raking it in from the reddit meme stuff along side Vlad IIRC.
