executive orders and shazam!!

or ... bs equals ds in a pile of stink

The Capitol in a state of repair … hmmm

As I watch the current political atmosphere permeating every wave of air, fiber of news, and paper of print, whether handheld or digital, I wonder if the nation’s Framers were completely naïve, delusional, or just full of crap. There is no way the limited government they advocated for, and what has become, is really the design of their desires. Or, like politics today, were they possibly spreading mierda (Spanish/defined: excrement, feces) so thick, in the hopes those labeled WE THE PEOPLE, would buy in, drink the Kool-Aid and watch the steamroll begin, like WE THE PEOPLE have done today.

Take the first ten amendments. Known as the Bill of Rights, they were a double-down to help keep the Federal government from reverting back to being tyrannical; one side did not trust the other, so. Their foundational basis, a restriction against, opposed to an ability for legislators to twist law and words into a quagmire of DS. So, thank those (Anti-Federalists) who looked at the Constitution with jaded eyes. Although, read the eleventh through the twenty-seventh amendments. Yes, birthright, liquor, voting, income taxation, banking, every type of power not granted, or able to twist, thus taken through amending the Constitution. And if one cannot see a manipulation for power transfer from WE THE PEOPLE to the government, continue to bury your head, and stand with your Party, while the weak links in the Constitution allow the breakdown of country, transferring power. Example: The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office (Constitution/Article III/Section 1).

Now, ponder the definition of “good Behaviour.” Who defines it, including “in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish?” Ask yourself: How are judges held to a standard, any standard of constitutional correctness? Maybe it’s the willingness of one appointed to uphold the dictates of Party instead of the Constitution: Think Marbury v. Madison. A “landmark decision" that in truth began as a manipulation of powers granted to thwart an incoming political party from enacting legislation. And that was 1803. Yet: No man is allowed to be a judge in his own cause, because his interest would certainly bias his judgement, and, not improbably, corrupt his integrity (Federalist 10). Those exact words, the case bias and how Party violated the very premise thereof, yet “landmark decisioned” the Constitution. Thus, and in addition to, one should understand (think) how many courts (judges) actually need to be established, especially if they are being used to undermine the Constitution.

Then, go back to the arguments before the Constitution exempted the Articles of Confederation. The Anti-Federalists, those less than angelic, but prophetic, who preferred to keep enslaved those whose nation sold them into slavery. Remember: Give me liberty or give me death (Patrick Henry) while he kept in bondage those who had no say. Only, wasn’t it Jefferson, a slave holder himself: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness (Declaration of Independence). His greatest work! And he was correct; equality ends at birth. So yes, government cannot make everyone equal, no matter how hard it tries to sell the BS. Because if it did, its power would then be non-existent. Except, in power: That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed (Declaration of Independence). The vicious cycle of BS becoming DS!

Yet, in the Constitution, the Anti-Federalists demanded State sovereignty, so the Framers sold: The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State (Federalist 45).

Yet, since January 20, President Trump has been writing executive orders non-stop to where Congress is spinning out of control. So much, neither house can keep up. Hell, even State governors don’t have a clue. Yet, if Democrat, they’re screaming unconstitutional, whereas Republicans, feckless, ride the wave, which begs, where does the power of the executive order reside in the Constitution: The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments (Constitution/Article II/Section 2).

Notice the lack thereof for a single-hand execution of power: A theoretical king. And yes, executive orders have been executed all the way back to George Washington. But, like Marbury v. Madison, a manipulation of power. Only, Marbury began as an implementation to create courts so numerous, legislation would have been damn near impossible to enact. Yet, the decider in the “landmark” case, was one of the antagonists in the premeditated act to usurp. So, while the blind lead the blind: All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives (Constitution/Article I/Section 1). Only, to sell the Constitution, the Framers did dispel the power thereof defining the difference between the king and the executive: The President of the United States would be an officer elected by the people for FOUR years; the king of Great Britain is a perpetual and HEREDITARY prince. The one would be amenable to personal punishment and disgrace; the person of the other is sacred and inviolable. The one would have a QUALIFIED negative upon the acts of the legislative body; the other has an ABSOLUTE negative. The one would have a right to command the military and naval forces of the nation; the other, in addition to this right, possesses that of DECLARING war, and of RAISING and REGULATING fleets and armies by his own authority. The one would have a concurrent power with a branch of the legislature in the formation of treaties; the other is the SOLE POSSESSOR of the power of making treaties. The one would have a like concurrent authority in appointing to offices; the other is the sole author of all appointments. The one can confer no privileges whatever; the other can make denizens of aliens, noblemen of commoners; can erect corporations with all the rights incident to corporate bodies. The one can prescribe no rules concerning the commerce or currency of the nation; the other is in several respects the arbiter of commerce, and in this capacity can establish markets and fairs, can regulate weights and measures, can lay embargoes for a limited time, can coin money, can authorize or prohibit the circulation of foreign coin. The one has no particle of spiritual jurisdiction; the other is the supreme head and governor of the national church! What answer shall we give to those who would persuade us that things so unlike resemble each other? The same that ought to be given to those who tell us that a government, the whole power of which would be in the hands of the elective and periodical servants of the people, is an aristocracy, a monarchy, and a despotism (Federalist 69).

Thus, while the world spins on its axis, WE THE PEOPLE, those entrusted to uphold the Constitution, to keep in check an out-of-control government (all three branches), have allowed it to spin out of control: And here I go again; allowing bullshit (BS) becoming dogshit (DS). The problem in the stink factor: Is one worse than the other, especially when fresh and still moist? Thus, as the executive orders continue to fly unabated; and Congress, divided by Party, abdicated its responsibilities and forgot the Constitution, while legislators glad hand, or throw profanity laced expletives; and as State governors lean right or left, remember: The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left (Ecclesiastes 10:2). Then ponder: How many other Marbury v. Madison’s have taken place since 1803. So today, look at everything with jaded eyes. My God people: Wake up!
