DOJ's Inspector General's FISA Abuse Report

They didn't mean to do it ... they're sorry for all the laws they broke ... they won't do it again ... there was no INTENT (even though INTENT is not written in the statute).

Governor William J. Le Petomane: "We've gotta protect our phoney baloney jobs, gentlemen!"
Blazing Saddles, 1974

See Conservative HQ Document below

Of course, we will read another weak-ass story from IG Horowitz about how Comey, Rosenstein, and Yates didn't mean to screw up the FISA laws using the Steele Dossier to lie to FISA judges appointed by Chief Justice John Roberts (who has failed to do anything about this scam). Those three clowns together signed the reauthorization of a FISA warrant (4 times) that enabled the FBI to spy on then candidate Donald J. Trump — now the duly elected President of the United States of America — and launch a political smear that continues today with the Democrat tyrants in the House of Misrepresntatives!

If We the People do anything on November 3, 2020, it is hoped that all American citizen voters remember this travesty as if it were burned into their collective brain and vote every despicable Democrat (Socialist) out of office. No amount of calling, writing, or meeting your CONgressman in person does any good.

THE ONE — AND ONLY ONE — LAWFUL ACT THAT CITIZEN VOTERS CAN PERFORM TO CORRECT THIS MASSIVE PROBLEM OF CORRUPTION IN GOVERNMENT IS VOTE FOR CONSERVATIVE, HONEST, MORAL PEOPLE TO SERVE THEM IN CONGRESS. DON'T THINK ABOUT PRESERVING THE POWER THAT YOUR "REPRESENTATIVE" MIGHT HAVE. POWER IS THE PROBLEM! POWER IS WHAT THESE CORRUPT PEOPLE IN CONGRESS WANT, AND THEY USE IT TO DESTROY THE FREEDOMS BUILT-IN TO AMERICA BY THE CONSTITUTION.

Once good people who genuinely want to serve instead amass power are seated in office, then the President and Congress can work together to fire every corrupt, non-performing scumbag government employee that comprises the DEEP STATE. The DOJ and State Dept. are full of such employees today. Current laws make it impossible to terminate these employees. Further, there should be no government employee union activity on government property.

The new Democrat Party has crawled out from under their rock and demonstrated what the Party really believes — POWER ANY WAY WE CAN GET IT! Originally, the States chose to form a limited central government based on Life, Liberty, Property, and Happiness. The People wanted the freedom to build their fortunes, free of government interference. The first hundred years, except for a bloody Civil War, enabled Americans to achieve their goals. The second hundred years have shown the rise of activism with citizens in groups attempting to change America. We've seen the development of government schools, the Federal Reserve (FED), the Income Tax, WWI, Prohibition, emergence of organized crime, the Great Depression (caused by the FED), the New (Socialist) Deal, WWII, Korean War, the Cold War, Vietnam War, the Space Race and moon landing. We suffered with hyper-inflation due to the discontinuance of the Gold Standard and uncontrolled spending.

It seemed like the FED couldn't get enough of War and America's indebtedness. We saw bin Laden and Al-Qaeda destroy a ship, try to bring down the World Trade Center (WTC) in 1993 and succeeded on 9/11/01 with 19 radical Saudi Arabians who learned to fly 737s in Florida under the nose of the incompetent FBI and flew hijacked planes into the WTC, the Pentagon, and attempted to fly into the White House that crashed instead in Pensylvania. Our 'fearless' President Bush led America into the first justified war (America was attacked) since WWII by invading Afghanistan although our limited forces enabled bin Laden and his crew to escape into caves. Bush erred later when he attacked Iraq where America proceeded to spend $5 Trillion even after Sadaam was surrounded in the north and the south with 'no-fly zones'. All of these wars have indebted America and increased inflation since 1901 by 14,000 percent. The end of the Bush Administration resulted in the popping of the disastrous Housing Bubble in 2006 with the Great Recession lasting until 2009. The cause of this bubble and subsequent financial disaster is the usual — the FED and 'free' money. Wasn't it nice of the FED to buy all of those Notes and Bonds to pay for war while keeping short rates 'inflationarily' low for America's hedonistic consumption? Bush's cabinet officers probably made a bundle from the collapse of the banking system even though banks could have handled the problem by themselves.

Meanwhile, the Marxist Barack Obama was elected in 2008. He proceeded to become the best friend the FED ('money-changers') ever had by doubling the National Debt during his tenure. He apologized to the world for America's bad behavior over the years even though Europe would have been Nazi and Asia would have been a Japanese Shinto-Caliphate if it weren't for those bad American boys. Mister Socialism (Barack) and cronies with a super majority in CONgress (2009-2010) passed a bastardization of Single Payer healthcare forcing citizens and companies to buy health insurance. Of course, this disaster raised insurance premiums by 30-60% and destroyed the doctor-patient relationship. Barack opened the southern border of the U.S., and held out a welcoming hand to low-life, unskilled, uneducated criminals and scum. By allowing Illegal Aliens to break our laws, Barack attempted the hastening of the US' financial failure. This INVASION has increased drug and human trafficking across the border killing ignorant citizens who chose to do opioids and Fentanyl. Kidnappings soared! Barack created an air of surrender, i.e., citizens were no longer personally responsible for the reality of their existence. Barack's government was the new savior for citizens. One need not work to resolve one's everyday financial problems or just life problems in general. One could just rely on government to solve one's problems.

In 2016 near the end of the Marxist regime, the Democrat (Socialist) Party chose to expand Barack's beginnings of Socialism with Saul Alinsky's prot�g�, Hillary Clinton, by creating a Russian election interference hoax claiming that candidate Donald Trump worked with Putin and Russia to prevent Clinton's election. Liberals and Socialists cried like babies the night of Hillary's loss. The 2016 election failure later in the evening was immortalized on youtube.

I can't wait to finally read and understand how the treasonable actions of the USA's clandestined agencies tried to screw President Trump out of his duly elected presidency. Democrats(Socialists) couldn't stand losing the 2016 presidential election to Trump, so they devised a coup d'�tat criminal conspiracy that began with the Steele Dossiera phony, despicable, vile pack of lies — that the FBI used to obtain a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) warrant for spying on Carter Page (an American petroleum industry consultant) by lying to the FISA Judge. Also, prior to the President's election, presumably, Barack Obama using the CIA and NSA enlisted the U.K.'s intelligence service (MI6), the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS), and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) to spy on Trump during the 2016 campaign. These agencies forwarded their respective spy products to the CIA.

The problem now after Hillary's loss is that the Democrat (Socialist) Party has morphed into the New Woke Party (see article below) comprised of people who hate America and hate Americans. This hatred is for all personally responsible, independent citizens who enjoy working, being educated, and making wealth. The wealth-jealous Socialists are very spiteful and do everything they can muster to interupt our great President Donald J. Trump. Socialists have worked to dumb-down American education creating a brave new world of ignorant, incapable people who are unable to produce and succeed and need to be cared for by a Socialist government. These Socialists want to cripple America and Americans with a copy of the former Soviet Union's (Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan) "Green New Deal", Single Payer Healthcare (to decrease not increase our average life span) which will create shortages of everything medical and kill the medical research industry, and last but not least, FREE EVERYTHING! If you think inflation and prices are high now, just let these economic idiots implement their economic destruction plans!

"The trouble with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people�s money."

Margaret Thatcher, former Prime Minister of Great Britain

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."

The Myth of Inspector General Reports

Guest column by former Rep. Steve Stockman #23502-479 | 12/9/19

If you are in the Department of Justice (DOJ) and want to convict somebody, you never use an Inspector General (IG) report. You use a grand jury with subpoena power. Just ask Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, and even me.

In order to hide crimes by the DOJ, they do not use an independent counsel with subpoena power, but a weak investigation without subpoena power and without anybody under oath. The result is an "IG report." You will hear plenty about the Office of Inspector General (OIG) report December 9 and again on December 11. But many people, on looking closer, are questioning the purpose of the office and its usefulness.

The DOJ's investigating itself is unprecedented in law enforcement. How would it have been if gang leader Al Capone�s friends had investigated him? Think about this: have you ever heard of people committing a crime investigating themselves. That is, in fact, the point. We have been flooded with many IG reports, and yet none of the time and money wasted on these friendly lengthy investigations has produced a single indictment, and why is anybody surprised?

Even the one IG report that recommended an indictment of former FBI head James Comey was rejected by Comey's friends at DOJ because he really did not intend to break the law. Just like James Comey did for Hillary by declaring her "cleared" of any wrongdoing because she really, really had no criminal intent. Not that what she did was not a crime; to the contrary, it was and is a crime. If you or I did those things, we have no doubt that we would have been charged.

[Editor's Note:
IG Reports are presumed to present a government department that is working lawfully to correct problems of corruption or illegalities. But, nothing ever gets corrected, nobody ever gets indicted, nobody ever gets fired. So, really, IG Reports merely smooth over the evidence of a crime and conclude that nothing that violated laws ever happened.

After tremendous pressure from the good guys in the House and Senate (before the November, 2018 Democrat rout), enough pressure and public opinion finaly resulted in the termination of Strzok and Page for bad attitudes that incensed the American public. These terminations were meant to settle the problems of an out of control DOJ and FBI. These bureaus supposedly enforce federal laws passed by CONgress. These bureaus are always very timely at indicting and trying citizens or members of a political party with which they are not affiliated or disagree, but they refuse to point the finger at one of their own and instead just conclude that procedures failed.

Clinton, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr (and wife) if not charged with a federal crime should be fired and banned from government at all levels. Clinton, Ohr, and wife Nelly should be in prison.

Director Wray was appointed by President Trump to lead the Bureau, clean-up the bad attitudes, and take out the trash. Anyone can tell you that a bad attitude is destructive. Just analyze how Colin Kaepernick destroyed the National Football League even though it was in the process of destroying itself with Free Agents. The Director has established new 'norms' (mores) and rules to correct previous Obama-Biden FBI problems, but my public viewing of Dir. Wray's statements to CONgress always left me thinking that Wray just wanted to protect the FBI which is laudable if the FBI needs protection only from Press Junkies who only want to destroy. While few people could manage this sprawling bureaucracy full of government employees who care more about their favorite flavor of ice-cream, Wray needs to seriously look at removing the disgruntled, politically damaged employees that tarnish the FBI's glistening image from the days of J. Eager Beaver.

HERE is the latest example of IG "smoothing" which results in corrective action to be applied to the FBI's procedures and the FISA Application form itself. Scroll down the first page until you reach the heading "Recommendations", then read from there. Nobody committed a crime such as lying or perjury, these poor DOJ and FBI employees just didn't do their jobs. Well, that's what they don't do all the time! I don't know any Private Sector company that would not terminate empoyees who lied, misrepresented, and failed to follow proper procedures. ]

18 USC, §793(f): "Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense,
        (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or
        (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer—
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both."

Comey's announcement is a lie, like Bill Clinton's saying he �didn't inhale.� Everybody knows it is a lie, and no lemmings from the press are going to say otherwise. People at the DOJ returned the favor to Comey and said he really did not intend to do anything wrong either. Sure, they say, he made "mistakes," but he is really, really, sorry and never meant anything political or criminal, you know. He was �just funning.� �Okay; you are forgiven. Justice for just us.�

As you can see, this is the same scam that Comey used for Hillary. He listed numerous crimes and, without his even being in charge of the prosecution, declared her innocent, despite the ample evidence to the contrary. Any grand jury presented with the facts that Comey listed (and lacking knowledge of the perpetrator�s identity) would have indicted her. Furthermore, one does not smash his telephones every month and set up a secret server in her bathroom if she has �no intent.� If the alleged perpetrator had been a Republican, be assured that the DOJ would use those actions as proof of the intent. James Comey and his merry band of fellow liberal travelers whitewashed the scandal with a simple opinion of one political hack with a title and a badge.

In fact, many IG investigations have been failures. Years ago, another DOJ self-investigation turned up crime in the Bureau of Prisons, but to this day nothing of real substantive actions or prosecution has come of that self-investigation. Keep in mind that the reason some people call it a fake investigation is that the "investigating" IG has no subpoena power; witnesses can lie to the investigator and, if one of them is caught lying, just go back and change the testimony. Nice to be a DOJ employee, and if one is no longer an employee, he is not even required to answer questions, so they never had to say they are sorry, let alone be held accountable.

The DOJ also is protecting criminal behavior by lavishing grants of immunity to many suspects, so those suspects cannot be charged or feel pressured. In the Hillary case, the DOJ handed grants of immunity like Halloween candy to anybody who might snitch on their fellow members of the Obama cabal.

The coming report will expose plenty of smoke at the DOJ � more smoke than any Russian investigation. Let us not forget the text messages between DOJ employees conspiring to undermine the American people. Rod Rosenstein had said he was joking when suggesting recording President Trump. A sampling of such DOJ "funning muses" included the suggestion that they brush up on the Watergate scandal and, "we in the FBI cannot take that risk. It is like an insurance policy provision that says, �In the unlikely event you die before you're 40." Those text messages that the DOJ tried to delete were not jokes or funning.

The DOJ has real problems, and its IG reports are nothing but fig leaves. By the time anybody is brought before a grand jury, the statute of limitations time will have expired. I am sure that Hillary and crew have big clocks next to their beds with a countdown for the expiration of statutes of limitations.

Half-baked press reports keep calling it "Trump's DOJ" � maybe so, but in name only. It is time for the president to start acting like it is his department — to exercise his authority as Obama did. President Trump is the chief law enforcement officer. Joe Biden is not above the law, and it was appropriate to seek a proper investigation.

If it's good for three investigations of the duly elected President, it equally is fair to call for investigation of Uncle Joe Biden and company. There were millions of dollars being paid by a corrupt oligarch of questionable means. The whole Biden affair smells like rotten fish - a corrupt oligarch pays millions of dollars and the Democrats claim he wants nothing in return. It�s laughable.

My plea � Mr. President, the IG report points to a lot smoke and corruption. You have an obligation to direct the DOJ to put in place a creditable independent counsel armed with subpoena power to find the truth. The DOJ shows how to get to the truth with grand juries, and it�s not through IG reports.

Investigate the targeting of political opponents. Contrary to the DOJ claims, it is not just �funning around.� It is a crime, and yes, they do mean it. Not only Republicans should be investigated; privileged Democrats should also be investigated. Investigate those at the top who abuse their power. Only then can we return to fairness and honesty in our government.

About the author: Congressman Steve Stockman is a two-time U.S. Congressman from Texas. He served on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee. Stockman went after IRS non-profit director Lois Lerner for her persecution of conservatives and Christians by abusing her power as an IRS official. The same corrupt officials who have been exposed at the IRS and DOJ spent four years, millions of dollars, and four grand juries to indict and convict congressman Stockman.

[Editor's Note:
If voters don't vote power freaks and clowns out of office on 11/3/20, then this fiasco will just get worse. The goal of an elected "misrepresentative" today is either to get rich or destroy our Constitutional Republic and put a Socialist government in its place (or both). ]

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).

In 1833, Justice Story published a study titled, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States. In a discussion of the Second Amendment, Story stated:

"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."

See the following links for more related articles:

[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.

A Convention of States is necessary to amend the Constitution for Congressional Term Limits to twelve (12) years and restrict time in DC to only six (6) months per year. Such an Amendment is only a FIRST step in restoring America to its Constitutional roots. Back in the day when the People still feared kings, the president's term was limited by Constitutional Amendment.

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

RESTORE AMERICA! CUT GOVERNMENT 50%!

"Extortion and thuggery are good things when they're called law!"

Larken Rose

[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:

  1. laws to be repealed or modified,
  2. Amendments to existing constitutional clauses that define the co-equal branches to further specify and define, and
  3. 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:

  1. the 16th Amendment,
  2. the Federal Reserve Act,
  3. the War Powers Act,
  4. all Asset Forfeiture laws,
  5. the Controlled Substances Act (CSA)
  6. the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act
  7. NDAA
  8. Homeland Security which includes TSA
  9. the Dodd�Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
  10. most Eminent Domain laws, and
  11. the Affordable Care Act

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:

  1. clearly define and limit the role of government in regards to the term "general welfare",
  2. Term Limits for CON-gress (12 years) including a 6 month limit on time residing in DC,
  3. strict Prohibition of Lobbying (with a comprehensive definition of "lobbying"), and
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Restore the world Gold Standard with five contentious steps, and
  7. Replace the IMF, World Bank, and Export-Import Bank with facilities that reflect the new Gold Standard, and
  8. 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. ]

Why Do We Need Term Limits?

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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Term Limits will break the power special interest groups have in Congress.
  4. 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.
  5. Term Limits will bring diversity of people and fresh ideas to Congress.

Term limits for lawmakers: when is enough, enough?

[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.

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.
