I say again: I will vote for those nominees only, and for those nominees alone. And when I say “explicitly acknowledged,” I mean on the record, before their nomination.

The Confederate Roots of the Administrative State
https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/07/the-confederate-roots-of-the-administrative-state/ From Wilson, we can easily draw a straight line to modern progressive administration.
