IMPORTANT: Before you read this, I want you to know that I do not belong to any political party; I think the leadership in both major parties are enemies of the Rule of Law under the Constitution, even if not all the parties’ members are. I don’t see where joining either of them is going to help restore America to those founding principles that are good ones. I think that the Constitution, while certainly imperfect, is a superior model of government when compared to the corrupted model we are currently suffering. But even if it’s not, these politicians swore on oath to uphold it. They lied.
I have categorized the following violations. These are just the ones I know about with modest research. There are almost certainly more. Check back for updates. I have too many other projects to promise that I’ll keep this updated–and besides that, I suspect the lists may quickly become unmanageable as this current chapter of lawlessness seems to be just starting.
LAST UPDATED: 5 APRIL 2020
BAILOUTS / SPENDING / EXCESS OF LEGISLATIVE POWERS
- March 18. Congress passes, and the President signs an unconstitutional bill to provide free Coronavirus testing to everyone. (Read)
- March 27. Congress passed $2 Trillion in personal and corporate bailout spending. This is completely unauthorized in the Constitution, and aims to put millions of citizens temporarily on the dole. Passed by Congress and signed by the President. (Read)
- $4 Trillion more is expected in Federal Reserve loans to bailout businesses. (Read)
- Considerable amounts of “pork barrel” spending attached to the above “emergency” measures. (Read)
- The unconstitutional, semi-private Federal Reserve Bank is now to own stock in airlines in return for stimulus grants. (Read)
- Increased calls for unconstitutional “Universal Basic Income”, that puts all citizens permanently on the dole. (Read)
PERSPECTIVE: With total bailouts expected to reach $6 Trillion, this is about nine times as much as the 2008/2009 bailouts that inspired millions of Americans to picket the government. Is this business as usual? Well, yes and no. It’s not new, but this much at one time is unprecedented, and signals a major shift in the government’s willingness to cheat the system. Congress swore not to do such things then they took the oath of office. Both Democrats and Republicans colluded to do this.
POLICE STATE / EXCESS OF EXECUTIVE POWERS
- March 16. The President orders unconstitutional “guidelines” (Read) curtailing business and personal activity, and crushing our economy. However smart these guidelines may or may not be, the Constitution gives him no authority to be doing this, and among other things, it violates the freedom to assemble.
- Since then, over half the states have issued their own shutdown orders–many of them violating their own state constitutions to do so. (Read) And the President has since extended his initial “guidelines” for another 18 days. (Read)
- An increase in “police state” behaviors, including unconstitutional surveillance of American citizens (Read) and various shutdown orders.
- County “Health Officers”, many of them unelected, and acting unilaterally, without supporting votes from local councils/commissions, have ordered the shutdown of local restaurants, bars, etc. (Read)
- More and more local law enforcement agencies are stepping in to help enforce these unconstitutional orders. (Read)
- NYC Mayor promises to “permanently” close churches who continue to meet. (Read)
- Tampa preacher jailed after holding two services. (Read)
- Governors ban foreclosures, evictions. (Read)
PERSPECTIVE: When the Executive Branches of the federal, state, and local governments decide to rule by fiat—that is, by decree—they undermine the constitutions they have sworn to uphold. They swore not to do such things when they took the oath of office.
CDC
- The Centers for Disease control have instructed medical examiners and coroners to list the cause of death as COVID-19 for “all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death.” Such conclusion does not require a positive test. (PDF)
- I can find no evidence that the CDC is doing anything to track (and report) the recoveries of those patients who, having been diagnosed with COVID-19, were sent home. If these cases are not reported as recoveries, but are allowed to stay permanently on the record, this would greatly corrupt the total number of active cases reported. Here’s an excellent video (13 minutes) on this problem.
PERSPECTIVE: Who in the world should be more expert on statistics than the CDC? Yet any beginner in statistics can tell you that this policy will not give accurate results. It seems instead that the wish here is to produce inflated numbers. This is flagrant cheating. It’s like assuming in an election that all the improperly-punched voting cards must be for the incumbent candidate.
STOCK MARKET
- February 24 and March 23. The stock market plummets, blamed on COVID-19 although it was inevitable because of a “bubble” of over-investment. And this is all tied up in the Federal Reserve’s incorrigible insistence on a debt-based dollar. (Watch)
- Several, including Members of Congress, suspected of insider trading related to the COVID-19 crash. (Read)
PERSPECTIVE: This makes for unfair use of the offices they supposedly hold in the public interest.
GLOBAL GOVERNMENT
- “Coronavirus Coup” behaviors popup up in governments around the world. (Read)
- Increased calls for a global government to save us from this crisis. (Read)
- “Shoot them dead”: Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte orders police and military to kill citizens who defy coronavirus lockdown (Watch/Read)
PERSPECTIVE: Calls for uniting under a global government (one-world government) traditionally don’t get much attention in the United States, but it seems that calls for it may be increasing. Further, the greater the fear, the more likely that people will think irrationally about such things, and be inclined to try sign away the United States to such a terrible idea.
CITIZEN REPORTS
- *Some* citizens inspecting local hospitals are not finding the mayhem they have been led to believe they’d find there. (Watch)
