How the US Supreme Court Has Treasonously Undermined and Destroyed America’s Democratic Republic
http://empireexposed.blogspot.com/2015/03/how-us-supreme-court-has-treasonously.html
By Admin, Empire Exposed, March 6, 2015
This presentation will focus on how our Big
Government in general and the US Supreme Court in particular have undermined and destroyed America’s onetime democratic
republic. The judicial branch
of the American government consisting of the federal district courts,
the circuit courts of appeal and the Supreme Court in tandem with the
prosecutorial legal arm of the executive branch the Justice Department
represent the United States of America’s federal judicial system that’s
supposed to operate above the fray of petty politics and polarized partisanship.
All these
federal judges appointed by the US president who presides over the executive
branch are then formally approved of by the legislative branch US Congress.
Unlike these two branches, federal judges enjoy permanent tenure with a fixed
income for life to ostensibly reinforce the notion of bipartisan impartiality
in constitutional interpretation of both legislative laws passed and executive
orders and decisions made.
By design this checks and balances system compliments of our
Founding Fathers has always been intended to act as a safeguard against the
federal government’s potential tyranny and oppression. This article will show
how during the first few years of the twenty-first century the Supreme Court
has led the way in giving license to all three branches of government to be
seriously compromised, corrupted and treasonously usurped by powerful
self-interests that no longer represent, much less care about the well-being of
the American people that they have sworn oaths to protect.
All three branches take a similar oath
to the one below for both members of Congress. Keep in mind they all must swear to follow
their oath throughout their tenure in office under penalty of law.
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I
will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against
all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and
allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without
any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and
faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So
help me God."
The specific federal
law prohibiting
violation of the above oath is worded as follows:
"Federal law regulating oath of office by
government officials is divided into four parts along with an executive
order which further defines the law for purposes of enforcement. 5 U.S.C. 3331,
provides the text of the actual oath of office members of Congress are required
to take before assuming office. 5 U.S.C. 3333 requires members of Congress sign
an affidavit that they have taken the oath of office required by 5 U.S.C. 3331
and have not or will not violate that oath of office during their tenure
of office as defined by the third part of the law, 5 U.S.C. 7311 which
explicitly makes it a federal criminal offense (and a violation of oath of
office) for anyone employed in the United States Government (including
members of Congress) to “advocate the overthrow of our constitutional
form of government”. The fourth federal law, 18 U.S.C. 1918 provides penalties
for violation of oath office described in 5 U.S.C. 7311 which include: (1) removal
from office and; (2) confinement or a fine."
Agents operating in high levels at all three branches of our
government have repeatedly engaged in treasonous acts as traitors in violation
of Article 3 of the US Constitution, the same Constitution they all swore to
preserve, defend, uphold, protect and honor. In the face of the growing tyranny
and dismantling of our Constitution since 9/11, their proven disloyal actions
have regularly violated their sworn allegiance to the nation, the Constitution
and the American people. Since all members of the three branches of government
must take an oath of allegiance that many then subsequently fail to comply
with, clearly violating the aforementioned codified federal law, and since we
do have the legal teeth, it’s high time to finally hold those who have been
disloyal to our Constitution fully accountable.
Back in December 2000 the Supreme
Court clearly usurped its own authority one month after the democratically elected Al Gore had won
both the popular and electoral vote had all the votes per the Florida
Supreme Court been allowed to rightfully continue to be counted. But
in an unprecedented move that transgressed beyond its role and boundaries, for
the first time in US history, the Supreme Court decided a presidential election
by interfering where it had no legal authority to unilaterally halt that
recount and prematurely proclaim the actual election loser George W. Bush the
winner.
The subsequent untold damage done to the world by eight years of
the diabolical Bush-Cheney regime that stole a second term in office with yet
another fraudulent 2004 election set into irreversible
motion the Zionist neocon/(VN: and neolib) takeover responsible for the most heinous crimes of
the ages – the inside 9/11 job, the lies promoting the immoral bloody wars in the Middle East
and North Africa still raging out of control under Obama today. The sheer loss
of life and utter horror willfully inflicted on so many nations and people none
of whom ever posed a real threat to the United States is unforgiveable. That
fateful, turn-of-the-century decision by the US Supreme Court to interfere in
the 2000 election may just go down among the all-time most destructive and
devastating court decisions in recorded human history.
The next major actions unveiling the court’s true partisan
colors arose over the ongoing, perennially unsettled issue of illegal
gerrymandering of congressional redistricting to unfairly gain House seats.
Back in 2003 the then Republican House majority leader Tom Delay’s blatant
machinations in Texas stacking GOP seats in Congress finally arrived at the
Supreme Court for deliberation in 2006. But because the Supreme Court justices
were deadlocked along partisan lines, ultimately they refused to intervene.
Though both political parties are guilty of grappling to gain unfair advantage,
the GOP’s gerrymandering power grab helped enable the Republican Party to
capture of the Houses of Representatives. The highest court’s ineffectual
response to this ongoing redrawing of political boundaries based on changing
demographics within the states ensured that Republicans outnumbered Democrats
in Congress. Whatever efforts the court has attempted in finally resolving this
longstanding, hot button issue have invariably failed. Devising a fair and
objective standard by which to remap congressional districts has proven ever
elusive.
So the partisan battle wages on. The latest development surfaced
this week when the Supreme Court heard arguments from both sides. The case
involves Arizona’s commission voted by the state’s voters in 2000 to begin handling
redistricting duties that stripped the GOP controlled state legislature from
its power to divvy up districts. Not surprisingly, the majority of conservative/GOP
judges in the Supreme Court all line up favoring the status quo’s literal
interpretation that the Founding Fathers stipulated the responsibility lie with
the state “legislature” while the liberal/Democrat justices prefer the more
loosely applied definition to mean the “legislative process.”
This would
support the voters assigning the task to an appointed commission. Stakes are
huge as the largest state California made a similar arrangement several years ago as did
Washington and a few others as a viable alternative means of resolving this
long contentious issue. So dozens of congressional districts around the nation
could be overturned by the high court’s decision.
Though the big money handlers (Koch brothers, Sheldon Adelson,
PAC’s) pour millions in strings attached donations to candidates from both
parties in order to ensure that the elite’s undue influence and control over
whomever gets elected is secured either way, they generally favor the
Republican Party. Thus the GOP ascension to power in both houses of Congress
has rendered the legislative branch in recent years as the most ineffective,
inept and morally corrosive in all of American history. Last year a poll found
that an overwhelming majority of Americans believe that Congress members are controlled
by special interest groups. With the unending quagmire that paralyzes
Washington, undoubtedly that percentage of public contempt and alienation will
only continue to rise over time.
By design this divide and conquer strategy permeates at all
levels in America (and the world) both historically and currently, and in our
federal government it produces a co-opted excuse absolving all responsibility
for continued failure simply by blaming the other side of the aisle. In this
way the forever game of partisan politics is maintained whereby the Democrats
get to always blame the Republicans, the Republicans the Democrats, and the
Democrat president always blames the now Republican controlled House and
Senate. As a result, the government always operates contentiously gridlocked
and mired at a chaotic standstill – its inability to work effectively together
as its convenient excuse to not do its proper job in protecting and promoting
the interests of the American people. This then provides the necessary perfect
public cover to continue in dysfunctional, abysmal failure, of course all at
citizens’ expense.
See how these momentous, monumentally significant, game-changing
actions from the nation’s highest court have directly impacted and caused such
grave damage degenerating our republic into an oligarchy? Again by design,
relentlessly pointing the finger at each other deceptively obscures the real
truth of the bigger picture from ever getting noticed or recognized. Through
the feds’ and their MSM’s nonstop propaganda and lies, as long as the US
populace can continue to be fooled and controlled, in its complacency it will
only continue to tolerate its government’s failures and accepted inadequacies,
never demanding more as a disempowered, seemingly impotent, disenfranchised
citizenry. The backbiting bickering between two thoroughly corrupted, co-opted
political parties in the US is mere side show distraction designed to conceal
the sleight of hand thievery of the banking cabal pulling all the side show puppet
strings. As the late great truth-telling George Carlin used to say, the elite
“doesn’t give a shit about you or me.” It’s an abomination of criminal deceit
that’s bamboozled dumbed down Americans kept in the dark for far too long.
And to this day they still don’t get it. A Reuters-Ipsos poll reported
this week that only 24% of Americans believe that Congress should more closely
oversee the Federal Reserve private banking cabal that’s been drowning us in
debt for over a century. More than twice that amount believe “the Fed should be
left alone.” These must be the same sheeple who loudly complain about how
horrible Congress is, yet last November turn around and re-elect 91% of the incumbents despite only a 10% approval rating. The lies are so often
repeated that the voting public gets invariably conned into voting against its
own self-interest again and again.
Still another Supreme Court decision that put the final dagger
into the heart of our dying democratic republic was 2010’s Citizens United case followed up by last year’s McCutcheon case that opened up
the purse-string floodgates giving carte blanche power for oligarchs to buy off
elected politicians with absolutely no oversight or accountability. With no
dollar limits making bribery perfectly legal and completely private and
untraceable by high court endorsement, by no accident a joint university study last year made it official – America is no longer a
republic but an oligarchy where the power interests of the few dictate and
control how our federal government votes and makes laws. Rather than pay any
attention to its blatant conflict of interest in violating every democratic
principle, the Supreme Court has also made it official – our government is up
for sale to the highest bidder.
Those who simply spend the most money now own
our elected representatives who are totally beholding to the hand that feeds
them rather than to their constituents that send them to Washington. Of course
the direct consequence of these totally undemocratic court decisions placing
exclusive monetary value on funding means that Congress members will only
devote more time, energy and effort to raising money to get re-elected than
doing their job on Capitol Hill. The 2012 presidential election at both
national and state levels cost a total of $60 billion, the most ever. With each
of these dramatically impactful court rulings, the onetime democratic republic
of America fades ever further into distant memory as the disconnect between the
Americans and their oligarchic form of government widens exponentially.
Finally last April’s Supreme Court decision to not intervene in
a Court of Appeals ruling that overturned the district court that had declared
the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) unconstitutional sealed the
nail in the coffin on whatever civil liberties we Americans still had left.
Though courageous citizens like journalist Chris Hedges had filed a lawsuit on
our behalf challenging NDAA’s legality and one very bold federal district court
judge decided in Hedges et al’s favor, by the Supreme Court’s choice to uphold
the Appeals Court decision overruling the lower court to keep the NDAA law on
the books, life as we legally knew it in the United States ceased to exist.
In
effect, both the Appellate and Supreme Courts violated American citizens’
Fourth and Sixth Amendments as well as overturned the Posse Comitatus law that
existed since after the Civil War. Comitatus was the legal protection that
prohibited the US military from intervening in civil affairs that were
historically under the jurisdiction of law enforcement agencies and each
state’s National Guard. Currently under the 2012 NDAA law, the military can
come into our homes without a warrant and arrest us without charges, detain us
for an unlimited, indefinite period of time without access to either legal
representation or due process and without even a trial.
Constitutional attorney John
W. Whitehead comments:
No matter what the Obama administration may
say to the contrary, actions speak louder than words, and history shows that
the U.S. government is not averse to locking up its own citizens for its own
purposes. What the NDAA does is open the door for the government to detain as a
threat to national security anyone viewed as a troublemaker. According to
government guidelines for identifying domestic extremists—a word used
interchangeably with terrorists, that technically applies to anyone
exercising their First Amendment rights in order to criticize the government.
The highest court’s gross and inhumane failure to protect our
civil liberties and our constitutional right to due process has given way to
the CIA-like “black sites” currently operating in secret locations throughout America
where US citizens are being rounded up, brought to detention centers, shackled
and tortured without being booked or charged with any crime. In effect, we are
all now potential targeted victims of the US police state under the most brutal
totalitarian rule. These egregious actions of the US Supreme Court have
desecrated and destroyed our rule of law that for more than two centuries used
to be the United States Constitution. What we now have are criminals operating
within our highest court who are nothing more than traitors who need to be held
accountable.
We also have a standing president who has assumed dictatorial
powers through countless executive orders that bypass both congressional
approval and our civil rights. Though he campaigned on a promise of
transparency and openness, he has betrayed the American people who elected him
by becoming the most secretive president in US history. His administration has turned down more
Freedom of Information requests than any prior using the pathetic mantra of
“national security” as his always lame excuse. He has charged far more
whistleblowers with the archaic espionage act than all other previous
presidents combined. He has been the most aggressive amongst all past
presidents in pursuing and harassing journalists, both executing and
threatening arrests for their seeking to tell the truth while exercising their
constitutional protection to not violate confidentiality of their sources. This
blatant, over-the-top violation of civil liberties of both whistleblowers and
journalists again shows Obama’s true colors that he is at war with free speech
and the free press obviously no longer guaranteed by our First Amendment.
Essentially since 9/11 all three branches have been taken over
and hijacked by malevolent and sinister forces that no longer serve the
interests of the American people but a handful of oligarch puppet masters that
is the long time controlling elite. Their intent is in fact to destroy America
and to a great extent the entire world as the final step toward fulfilling
their globalist agenda of a one world government. For numerous centuries the
international globalists have utilized their central banking cabal to own and
operate a morally corrupt and thoroughly broken, unsustainable Ponzi scheme of
an economic system designed to historically steal and plunder the earth’s
natural resources and enslave through insurmountable debt and feudal servitude
the global masses. The brutal and ruthless tyranny of the New World Order has effectively seized control over the entire planet’s
population. Under the auspices of the American Empire doing its brutal bidding
along with its subservient appendage of the NATO-European Union, a pro-Zionist
elite spearheaded by the likes of Israel’s Bibi Netanyahu has subversively
driven humanity to the brink of global self-annihilation. Through geopolitical
polarization into two militarized opposing armed camps, the West is
diabolically baiting and pushing the East (Russia, China, India and Iran) into
global conflict amounting to World War III.
The hard kill tactics of global war and violence in conjunction
with the soft kill method of environmental degradation (i.e., pollution of air, water, soil and
food production through cumulative Monsanto GMO/chemical and chemtrail toxicity
and ever-rising levels of radiation) makes our living earth habitat
unsustainable that is increasingly producing widespread lethality amongst all
life forms. The oligarchs’ eugenic plan of reducing the world population from
7.2 billion to a half to one billion is in current process of being
successfully attained. Within a few years a very strong likelihood exists that
roughly 13 out of 14 of us currently living and breathing on this planet will
be dead or all life forms on planet earth will have perished.
With these longshot odds on survival becoming increasingly
apparent, we humans as mindful citizens of the world have nothing left to lose at
this near endgame point but to fight and take back our only home from those
bent on fast destroying it. As outlined here, clear violations of the US
Constitution have been egregiously been committed by members of all three
branches of the federal government and under the penalty code of those
laws, they sorely need to be enforced. Indeed it is both the citizens’ right
and obligation to do so. We have no other rational or moral choice but to
mobilize and actively oppose the destructive forces currently in demonic
control over the earth’s dominion.
