 The compact? That's wrong English. Wtf? The first sentence is incorrect. He maybe meant pact or contract.  
 No. "Compact" is older English for a treaty or agreement, or a written document. 
 I'm suspicious. But I'll admit I don't know everything. It seems peculiar but if we break down the word it does mean com (with) pact (agreement). 

I was going to zap you some sats for squaring me away but it looks like you are not set up. 

I bow to your wisdom. 

Thank you.

 Autumn is correct imo 
 Yes, and I bow to the wisdom of Autumn.  
 Thank you for the intent, though my zapping setup should be functional - i received some earlier today. 
 I zapped you instead 
 Received. Much appreciated. 
 It was a very intentional word choice. They're referencing the compact theory of federalism (the federal government was created by the states) as opposed to the social contract theory of federalism (the federal government was created by the people). 
 This might result in the first armed standoff between the federal government and state troops since the civil war. 👀
