Our attorney general, you know, the one who won't prosecute voter intimidation if it's done by blacks, has as you know decided to sue Arizona for its KKK law. Which he admitted he hadn't read. Now you can read it here.

Not all that evil, is it? Roger Kimball, to whom I would tip my chapeau if I had one, quotes Federalst 45:

The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.*

Without question the Arizona law falls under the the last sentence. As do so many other things these days which Washington is, so far successfully, trying to control for their further power and glory.

Kimball is right. Just where is our modern James Madison? This country has not been in such severe danger perhaps since the time the Brits burned the White House.
