The Federalist Papers: Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Jay | Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Jay, Ian Shapiro

pick

Read & listened to this simultaneously because I knew it was gonna take some effort. (Doing the same thing with the Anti-federalists too 😅.)

In America, there has always been this push & pull about what the Founders intended. Now, I can‘t say this book makes it obvious, partly because I believe Hamilton was insincere, but I feel most people can walk away from this wondering why in the hell the Supreme Court has such a problem understanding.

TheBookHippie The Supreme Court is corrupt 😵‍💫 2w

BC_Dittemore @TheBookHippie very much so. Which is a shame to say because we might possibly have some of the Court‘s best justices ever in Sotomayor, Kagan, & KBJ. 6d

Reinventing Government: How the Entrepreneurial Spirit is Transforming the Public Sector | Robert Silverberg

I do not care that when I phone a Government Service Canada and they tell me the same sob story as 6 months ago, and it's still hasn't been resolved. What in the world are workers doing. Why do I need to call you 30 times to see if it's been done? I'm at the point where I just don't care. @Dabbe

AmyG So much incompetence- everywhere. 1mo

Deblovestoread So frustrating! 1mo

dabbe Ooh, beyond frustrating. So sorry you have to keep on these people's asses. 😖😤🤬 Sending 🩵💙🩵. 1mo

Reggie Yayyy for Democracy Sausage Day!!! Looks delicious. 3mo

Jeg We voted early so missed out. Looks delicious. 3mo

LeahBergen I didn‘t get a sausage for voting here in Canada on Monday! 😠😆😆 3mo

CarolynM @Aims42 Australia voted in the federal election today. Our polling places are mostly school and church halls. A lot of their communities use it as an opportunity to raise money by holding sausage sizzles and sometimes cake stalls. It‘s become a part of the culture to buy a sausage after casting your vote. 3mo

CarolynM @TheBookHippie It‘s a community building thing 🙂 Doesn‘t matter who you vote for, everyone wants to buy a sausage. 3mo

CarolynM @Teresereading @Jeg Nevermind, maybe you‘ll get one next time😆 3mo

CarolynM @Reggie It was pretty good 😋 3mo

TheLudicReader I just heard about this…so funny! 3mo

CarolynM @LeahBergen We have to buy them from the fundraisers, they‘re not just handed out you know😆 I‘m watching the results coming in at the moment. It looks like we are replicating the Canadian result 🙌🎉 3mo

TheBookHippie @CarolynM how fun! 3mo

Aims42 @CarolynM Omg, I LOVE ALL OF THIS 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 How cool!! 3mo

I just opened some book mail to discover this atrocity. 😭 I hope it comes off.

marleed Ohh that‘s bad😟 4mo

Ruthiella Yikes! It‘s huge. Using a blow dryer to loosen the stickum often works for me. 4mo

TheBookgeekFrau 😲🤯🤬 And to add insult to injury, it's upside down! 4mo

bookandbedandtea @marleed @Ruthiella @Deblovestoread @nanuska_153 @dabbe Fortunately, it came off pretty easily and didn't damage the cover. But sheesh! 4mo

bookandbedandtea @TheBookgeekFrau Right?! As if it isn't horrifying enough to slap an enormous sticker smack in the middle of the cover they also had to put it upside down?? 🤦‍♀️ It came off pretty easily, though, so all is well. 4mo

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea Oh good! Because that was a pretty bad case of book abuse. 4mo

nanuska_153 I actually just noticed it's the federalist papers, that's such an interesting read (I love Constitutional Law). Are you going to listen to Hamilton while reading it? 😂 (Also love musicals xD) 4mo

bookandbedandtea @nanuska_153 I can‘t say I had thought of that but I‘m thinking it now! 👀🎼 4mo

TieDyeDude They are so lazy in their racism, they can't even come up with a good excuse. Nothing about "DEI" justifies erasing any mention of the accomplishments of someone who happens to be a person of color. 4mo

This was a great read. It definitely got my heart racing throughout. It definitely had an Orwell feel to it. It was truly worth the read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
