America, the greatest country in history, cannot survive if the intent of the Founders is violated
Governor William J. Le Petomane:
"We've gotta protect our phoney baloney jobs, gentlemen!" Blazing Saddles, 1974
See article below
Liberty as defined by the Founders is assaulted and violated today in 2019. The Founders, particularly Alexander Hamilton, identified and determined that the Judiciary would be the "least dangerous" of the
three branches of government. In Federalist 78, writing in
the English style of the time, Hamilton very clearly and exhaustively defines the Judiciary Branch (department) as the arbiter that examines and analyzes legislation to determine constitutionality in terms of
whether a given Bill or passed Law violates the Liberty of the People as defined by the Constitution.
Whoever attentively considers the different departments of power must perceive, that, in a government in which they are separated from each other, the judiciary, from the nature of its functions, will
always be the least dangerous to the political rights of the Constitution; because it will be least in a capacity to annoy or injure them. The Executive not only dispenses the honors, but holds the sword
of the community. The legislature not only commands the purse, but prescribes the rules by which the duties and rights of every citizen are to be regulated. The judiciary, on the contrary, has no
influence over either the sword or the purse; no direction either of the strength or of the wealth of the society; and can take no active resolution whatever. It may truly be said to have neither FORCE
nor WILL, but merely judgment; and must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm even for the efficacy of its judgments.
A thinking citizen must ask then, "How can the Judiciary block actions of the Executive?". Judges determine if a Law is Constitutional and Judges determine if actions of persons are violations of laws.
An action of the Executive based in laws already determined to be constitutional cannot be blocked or terminated on a judicial whim. The Executive is not on trial for committing a crime, judgement
cannot block actions of a co-equal branch.
The remedy is an Amendment to the Artical III definition of the Judiciary in the Constitution. A new Section (4? after Treason) that specifically prohibits the use of injunctions if such injunctions
can be logically, deductively, and arguably shown to be even partially politically motivated. Obviously, if a given injunction applies to an action that can be shown to genuinely warrant additional
revision or legislation to refine the enforcement action, then such an injunction could continue. In the case, however, with written law already on the books, an enforcement order based on such laws are
almost always stopped for political reasons. There are situations where the Founders knew that politics would be the primary factor such as mapping the bounderies of congressional districts. Almost
before every election, some suit is filed claiming Gerrymandering. Injunctions under these circumstances cannot be avoided if the litigant can show cause.
Such an amending Section would shutdown most of the 9th Circuit's politically motivated interference that halts the legal enforcement of law. Apparently, the intent of the Founders
has somehow disappeared from the intelligence of judges today. Just because past case law demonstrates legal failures that sanctioned such politically motivated malfunctions of law doesn't mean that
future failures should be allowed.
Therefore, judges must be reminded with an additional Section (4?) in Article III that judges don't interfere with the Legislature or Executive, i.e., "legislate from the bench". Apparently, few government
officials understand the meaning of "Liberty" and the federal framework as defined by the Constitution. All government officials must be required to read all Federalist Papers and the Constitution before
taking the oath of office so they might know what they promise. 'WE' continually point to violations of law and the Constitution and no government officials act to correct these problems. Will it take
another Revolution to restore America to the intent of the Founders? Right now the Socialists in the citizenry and in CONgress are inciting a revolution, will 'WE' let them win? Will 'WE' allow them to
destroy America?

Recommendations
I recommend two (2) movies for interested viewers. If Democrat voters (or any voter) want to understand what is wrong with their
party, I recommend a documentary movie that contains a completely corroborated history of the Democrat Party. The documentary's title is:
Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party. The documentary was produced by Dinesh D'Souza who was 'railroaded' by the Obama Administration into a
kangaroo court controlled by a corrupt judge and sentenced to prison for producing another documentary,
2016: Obama's America. All FACTS presented in these documentaries are the historical evidence of the failure of the Democrat Party although the Democrats have many allies that support these Communist/Socialist attempts to destroy
America, and no group of FAKE NEWS companies can deny the FACTS.
Professor Carol Swain, Poli. Sci. & Law, Vanderbilt U. for Prager University Professor Swain appears in one segment of Dinesh D'Souza's aforementioned video.
While America has a Constitution that guarantees freedom of speech, it doesn't guarantee an everyday political education. If Americans believe in their freedoms guaranteed by the
Bill of Rights, if Americans believe that Capitalism is the greatest creator of individual wealth the world has ever experienced (historical facts prove this assertion), then Americans
should know the people and organizations who want to destroy America from within. Therefore, the best documentary available that exposes and identifies these enemies who have grown
much stronger since the Russian Revolution is The Enemies Within.
Also near the end of The Enemies Within documentary, the video requests that citizens call their Senators and Representatives (those NOT affiliated with the Muslim
Brotherhood and other subversive Marxist organizations) to support
S. 68: Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2017 and
H.R. 377: Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2017.
After watching the video, you will clearly understand why the Muslim Brotherhood is trying to destroy America from within. Many current Representatives and Senators are affiliated with persons
and organizations whose precepts, behavior, and speech are as Marxist as Vladimir Lenin without identifying themselves as Marxist. One of these organizations has infiltrated America like a final
stage cancer. These un-American organizations must be excised like a massive tumor. This is NOT McCarthyism since you will SEE and UNDERSTAND the evidence presented in the video.
"The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history." —George Orwell
Anyone who believes this country is free is an idiot!
Editor's Note: CONgress should consider impeaching Chief Justice Roberts
for twisting the meaning of written law(s).
One might consider his actions to be "political corruption".
In Federalist No. 78, Alexander Hamilton, viewed as one of the most influential of our founding fathers, argued that the Judicial Branch would be the least dangerous of the three, since the
Legislative Branch retained the power of the purse and the Executive Branch the power over law enforcement and the military.
Titled �The Judiciary Department� and published on May 28, 1788, the purpose of the paper was to explain the function, scope, and power of the federal judiciary. In it, Hamilton argued this
branch was the weakest because it did not have any �influence over either the sword or the purse� It may truly be said to have neither FORCE nor WILL, but merely judgment.�
That may have been the founders� intent for the Judicial Branch, but that�s not how things turned out. Today, some 230 years later, the federal judiciary still does not possess any actual
enforcement mechanism regarding its rulings, but those rulings are often treated as though they have the force of law. And what�s more, presidents and successive congresses have become
accustomed to allowing the Judicial Branch to be utilized as a political tool against them, as we�ve seen time and again over the past few decades.
Federal courts, at times, thwarted Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama, to be sure.
But today, the hard Left is using the Judicial Branch as a legal cudgel to batter the Trump administration, challenging everything from his authority to issue executive orders based on existing
law to utilizing funds not earmarked for any specific purpose to build a wall along our southwestern border.
Essentially, the president�s political (and actual) enemies are utilizing federal courts to issue �Judicial vetoes� over his ability to govern, while usurping his authority under Article II of the Constitution.
Mind you, the founders did design the Judiciary to be independent of politics and to rule on the constitutionality of laws and presidential policies. That�s why federal judges and Supreme Court
justices were given lifetime appoints during �periods of good behavior.� But clearly even the process of selecting federal judges has become politicized. Presidents do not nominate candidates
for the federal bench who do not share his political ideology; similarly, the Senate votes to confirm or deny those nominees based on who controls the chamber at the time. And Congress does
not hold federal judges accountable, as in ever.
Federal courts have more power than they were ever supposed to have
This politicization of the federal bench has led to several egregious rulings that have little to do with current law or constitutional provisions and everything to do with differences in ideology.
� Early in the president�s tenure, he was blocked by activist federal judges in the Ninth Circuit � one of the most overturned of all circuits � when he attempted to do what President Obama did:
Ban travel into the U.S. from some terrorist-sponsoring countries. Eventually, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned these rulings, as they should have.
� Trump is routinely being flouted by federal courts over his attempts to enforce immigration law and secure the border. As Hans A. Von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation,
noted in April,
a highly politicized Obama appointee, Judge Richard Seeborg (Ninth Circuit) issued a nationwide injunction against the Trump administration�s effort to implement a new �remain in
Mexico� asylum policy. Administrations were given this statutory authority by Congress under 8 U.S.C. �1225 (b)(2)(C). (Related: Trump may have to invoke �Insurrection Act� to protect the country
after another Obama judge blocks his border wall construction.)
[Editor's Note:
8 U.S.C. �1225 (b)(2)(C) Treatment of aliens arriving from contiguous territory
In the case of an alien described in subparagraph (A) who is arriving on land
(whether or not at a designated port of arrival) from a foreign territory contiguous to the United States,
the Attorney General may return the alien to that territory pending a proceeding under section 1229a of this title.
See 8 U.S. Code �1225. Inspection by immigration officers; expedited removal of inadmissible arriving aliens; referral for hearing
— to refresh your understanding of the "rule of law" or our supposed "nation of laws". President Trump's executive actions and orders related to 8 U.S. Code CHAPTER 12� IMMIGRATION AND NATIONALITY have been
entirely lawful and correct. All Executive Orders must be based on existing law. Therefore, the Judiciary's injunctions are merely delaying tactics that should be outlawed with a new Section (4?) amending ARTICLE III
of the Constitution.
Speaking of nationwide injunctions, Bruce Thornton explained in FrontPage Magazine in May:
Vice President Pence announced recently that the Trump administration is finally pushing back against activist judges in Federal District Courts who issue nationwide injunctions against lawful executive policies on issues like immigration.
It�s about time. The federal judiciary has been transformed into an all-powerful branch of government filled with political appointees who decide cases based on ideology, not constitutional and statutory authority as they are supposed to do.
[Editor's Note: I recommend the following articles about the crimes perpetrated by CIA, NSA, DNI, DOJ, FBI, and various other Deep State operatives against
President Donald Trump before his landslide election in 2016 and all during his presidency:
A new Congress has been seated, and it brings the prospect of perhaps, maybe, potentially, in a possible way doing something about the runaway federal deficits. And in other news, several New York area bridges are for sale, which you can acquire at a bargain price.
Excessive Spending Destroys!
Feds Have a Spending Problem — DO NOT RAISE THE CEILING!
Feds Have a Sewage Problem!
DEBT PERSPECTIVE!
Social Security (SS) monies flow into the Feds via paycheck withholding. The Feds buy
US Treasuries and the Bond purchase money is deposited into the treasury. Benefit money
must therefore be paid out of the Treasury. If there had been a SS brokerage account
(instead of the Feds spending it), the monies could have been invested very conservatively
to receive a modest 5-8% annual return on investment and the SS "Trust" Fund would
be solvent even with retiring baby-boomers. Another mismanagement failure is SS Disability
which has been defrauded by mendacious citizen malingerers especially from 2000 to 2016.
Joseph Story, Supreme Court Justice ... when the court wasn't part of the L-E-J Cabal
Joseph Story (1779�1845) was born during the American Revolution, and came of age in the early years of the new United States of America. He was a scholar of the U.S. Constitution, and, eventually helped found the Harvard Law School.
In 1811, Story was appointed to the Supreme Court by President James Madison — who knew a few things about the U.S. Constitution, in that he helped write it. Story was a contemporary of another famous member of the Supreme Court, Chief Justice John Marshall (1755�1835).
"The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them."

[Editor's Note: what I have dubbed the "Legislative-Executive-Judicial Cabal" which the American People have caused by ignoring the generational transition from our Constitutional Republic to what now is, in effect, an "elected" dictatorship. Never mind who is elected. Never mind which bogus party is in power. The superficial, theatrically staged, choreographed appearance of debate, disagreement, and stalled legislation always resolves into more government and less FREEDOM. We the People still lose more freedom after every "emergency" or unnoticeably when CON-gress passes another general, open-ended law that enables the Executive (dictator) and its unaccountable agencies to formulate more freedom-restricting regulations (200 pages a day get posted to the Federal Register). The "Dictator's" agencies (police force) continue to pile-up more weapons to squelch uprising(s) when the People finally realize and understand their tyrannical government.
Currently, CONgress is just a group of socialists, progressives, and faux-conservatives (career politicians) that, on a daily basis, ignores the Constitution, many of their own past statutes, and cedes their responsibilities to the president ("elected" dictator). A comparison to the history of Rome becomes more and more credible with the Executive and its "featherbedded" lackeys gaining more power while CONgress sits back all fat-dumb-and-happy.
CONgress has made recent efforts to expose State Dept. failures in Benghazi (inept political leader), Fast-and-Furious gun-running (criminal AG), IRS 1st amendment violations, gov't union Veterans Administration fraud, and whining about Obama(Reid)-killer-Care, but these efforts are mostly politics as usual. Most "citizens" will forget about these infringements from our unaccountable, uncontrollable Executive branch with its tyrannical agencies staffed by socialist unions that extort "juicy" contracts from the "elected" dictatorship.
Most positions in the federal government whether elected, appointed, or hired are nominal, make-work jobs (confidentially) designed merely to grow government, bilk money from private businesses and citizens, and eventually fully transform America into a totalitarian state. When this happens, CONgress will have destroyed the economy and the country by their negligence and counter-liberty policies, and it will be almost impossible to Restore America. The 'Restore America' list is only a beginning too.]
"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
James Madison, Federalist Paper 47, Friday, February 1, 1788

[Editor's Note: a Constitutional Convention is required to reverse the damage to freedom and liberty since 1900. This Article V was ratified by the participants at America's founding Constitutional Convention as an alternate path for repairing damage to freedom and liberty, a path for the People to restore damage caused by our failed representatives in the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches of a government designed to represent the wishes of We the People.
The States must "demand" a Convention and explicitly specify an agenda of:
laws to be repealed or modified,
Amendments to existing constitutional clauses that define the co-equal branches to further specify and define, and
new Amendments or statutes to be eventually ratified by States.
These Amendments should further specify and clarify the powers of the Legislature and Executive Branches. A good example is the definition of a "Bill".
A Bill should contain ONLY verbiage in regards to the topic of the future law. NO earmarks and NO unrelated sections or attacments.
Many past Bills sent to a president for signature contained unrelated but essential funding sections that rendered the Bill veto-proof when it warranted a veto.
CON-gress can override a veto if the Bill is deemed absolutely necessary by CON-gress.
If the Bill requires SPECIFICALLY related amendments, the CON-gress can "debate" (with its usual theater) and vote any new amendments.
The original text of the Constitution contains some very GENERAL clauses enabling both CON-gress and Executive branches to write laws and
regulations with their particular nuances expanding powers beyond intent. "Intent" may be gleaned from a complete understanding of
Federalist Papers.
An example of further specification and clarity for CON-gress should be a clear, very specific definition of the boundaries for the interstate Commerce Clause.
To restore freedom, liberty, and individuality - minimally these must be repealed:
Currently, even with computer-searching systems, the list of antiquated and/or obsolete statutes (and related regulations) is unwieldy.
These statutes must be invalidated unless there remains an applicable reason for retaining the law(s).
Aside from invalidating statutes, there are many regulations that are biased in favor of large enterprises (who buy support from bureaucrats)
at the expense of the competition, effectively repressing the Free Market. Any regulations not related to public safety that gives a financial advantage
to some companies over their smaller rivals must be rescinded to enable all companies with good consumer products to excel without burdensome regulations.
Additionally, the Convention should adopt for ratification at least these new Amendments or statute modifications:
clearly define and limit the role of government in regards to the term "general welfare",
Term Limits for CON-gress (12 years) including a 6 month limit on time residing in DC,
strict Prohibition of Lobbying (with a comprehensive definition of "lobbying"), and
a Balanced Budget Amendment to stop wreckless spending. During a CON-gressionally declared "war" (only after USA is attacked or attack is proven "imminent"),
deficit spending is permissible.
Restore America to its roots, i.e. Defense, State, Treasury, and Justice. Some Agencies are required like CIA and NSA, both respectively focused on defense against real foreign aggressors and not fictitious paranoid delusions of war mongers. Other agencies help where certain interstate communications are necessary. Most agencies like Agriculture, Education, DEA, IRS (eliminated with 16th Amendment) and many other listed here should be eliminated.
Restore the world Gold Standard with five contentious steps, and
Replace the IMF, World Bank, and Export-Import Bank with facilities that reflect the new Gold Standard, and
After decentralizing and economizing, if tax revenue is needed to fund all or part of the federal government, then implement the Fair Tax.
Regarding a Constitutional Convention itself, some of the available literature warns the reader about a possible "unstructured" and "mismanaged"
Convention that might propose and adopt amendments that could damage the Republic.
Possible, however, it is difficult to envisage how much more damage could done over what the L-E-J Cabal has already done.
If the Convention's agenda and rules of order strictly prohibit violation of the rules and enable a vote on unlisted Amendments AFTER all others are adopted,
then the Convention will be properly structured and managed. ]
John Adams said, �Without [term limits] every man in power becomes a ravenous beast of prey�. That being said, here are some of the reasons we believe our country needs Term Limits.
Term Limits can help break the cycle of corruption in Congress. Case studies show that the longer an individual stays in office, the more likely they are to stop serving the public and begin serving their own interests.
Term Limits will encourage regular citizens to run for office. Presently, there is a 94% re-election rate in the House and 83% in the Senate. Because of name recognition, and usually the advantage of money, it can be easy to stay in office. Without legitimate competition, what is the incentive for a member of Congress to serve the public? Furthermore, it is almost a lost cause for the average citizen to try to campaign against current members of Congress.
Term Limits will break the power special interest groups have in Congress.
Term Limits will force politicians to think about the impact of their legislation because they will be returning to their communities shortly to live under the laws they enacted.
Term Limits will bring diversity of people and fresh ideas to Congress.
[Editor's Note: If you want to get rich, i.e. advance from a low paying government bureaucrat job on the local or state level, THEN GET ELECTED TO THE US CONGRESS (House or Senate). Once you're elected, it's easy to steal from your campaign contributions or the Congressional budget allocated to your seat and staff. You can go on a government-funded junket with 'lavishly' paid expenses. The list of ways to steal from the government while in office is inexhaustible. There are only a few Congressmen who left Congress just wealthy instead of a multi-millionaire. Of course, there are several who arrived in Congress as multi-millionaires and don't need to steal from the government.]

The CONgress (by
Article V of the Constitution) has proposed and
States have ratified many new amendments to the Constitution, some that increase their power over us citizens. CONgress can propose amendments, and the
alternative method to CONgressional proposals can come from States via
Article V. When "We the People" — meaning
a very large majority — are opposed to Acts of CONgress like the INCOME TAX or ENDLESS WARS or the FEDERAL RESERVE, Acts that restrict and regulate our
LIBERTY, Acts that are a waste of money, Acts that have caused unrecoverable indebtedness, then through local representaatives of our States WE can propose
Amendments to be ratified by States just like CONgress.
STATES and the PEOPLE of America are very angry at the federal goverment's violation of its
constitutionally-defined boundaries. States created the federal government in 1787 with LIMITED powers defined in the Constitution. All powers not
given by States to the feds remain with the States by Article X. The feds have through deceit, distortion, and falsification rearranged the entire contractual agreement
between States and the federal government. The feds have become a very powerful, all consuming force in American government. The time has come for States to rein in the federal government,
to take power back, to limit the federal government's power, and to add some detailed restriction to the definition of CONgress, the Executive, and the Judiciary.
In 1787 a central government was (is) necessary only to provide for the common defense and ensure equality
under the law for all Citizens, to provide a final arbiter for the resolution of unsolvable problems among States and People. Most laws and regulations that the federal
government has wreaked on the States and the People are unconstitutional. States are independent, sovereign countries who realized the need for a limited and defined
central government to prevent wasteful duplication of effort. The federal government, in 2017, is OUT OF CONTROL, infringing and interfering with State sovereignty and their
separate economies. A problem arose in 2012 with Arizona's attempt to secure their border with Mexico. An article is
here. States can prevent infringements
by the federal government with an Aricle V Convention of States to not only reverse past federal government "power grabs" but prevent future federal government
violations of their Constitutionally-defined boundaries.
A new, well-organized group of volunteers in all 50 states have gathered to restore America to
its roots by limiting all 3 branches of the federal government with a
Convention of States (CoS) organization (alternate site,
CoS Action). This is a Convention of States to AMEND the Constitution — NOT rewrite it!
Recently, CoS held an Article V, Convention
simulation with appointed volunteers from all 50 States. The simulated Convention demonstrated how a well-organized CoS can vote for proposed amendments
to the Consitution that are popular enough to be ratified by the necessary 3/4ths of States (38). Obviously, only proposed Amendments that are likely to pass
both Houses of the legislatures of thirty-eight (38) States, that is, the required 3/4ths of States to ratify an Amendment to the Constitution should be proposed.
See the Final Report here.
The purpose in a Convention of States, simulated or real, is to PROPOSE AMENDMENTS that give power back to the People. The proposed amendments must reflect the
thinking, objectives — the goals of people of States — who want to restore our Constitutional Republic to one that represents the people.
ARTICLE V Convention of States—Restore the Appropriate Balance!
ARTICLE V Convention of States—Restore the Appropriate Balance!
ARTICLE V Convention of States—Restore the Appropriate Balance!
A real CoS, requires that 2/3rds of States (34) send an "application" to CONgress requesting that
CONgress schedule a CoS. State Legislatures are composed of an Assembly and Senate. Each "house" must pass a bill separately and send the resolution to their
Governor. Then the State sends an "application" to the CONgress. When the federal CONgress receives applications from 34 States, the CONgress is required to set a date for
the Convention of States. CONgress is NOT involved otherwise. The States have the Convention, propose amendments, and dispatch the precisely worded amendments to
their respectives assemblies and senates for ratification. CONgress only schedules the Convention.
