EXECUTIVE ORDERS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's eyeball the executive branch of the national government. This will
be a beauty! Caesar is alive and well in Washington, D.C. You better
believe it.
Earlier mention was made of executive orders. Our research shows the
first use of these orders was by President George Washington for
household expenses. It was an order signed by him for normal expenses
which would be accepted by the Treasury Department and paid. Simple
enough.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation was formed under an executive order
by Teddy Roosevelt on July 26, 1908. The first time it was used to make
a law was in 1916 by President Woodrow Wilson. It was said to be an
'emergency' measure and Congress was encouraged to validate it. They
did.
The door was now open to ignore the Constitution. This is the same
method used by Franklin Roosevelt in 1933 to close all the banks in the
country. Remember our gold? Americans were ordered to turn in all their
gold to local banks. AFTER this was done, King Roosevelt, by executive
order, raised the value of an ounce of gold from $20.00 to $35.00! Guess
who that benefitted? International bankers and central banks around the
world . . that's who. Americans who turned in their gold were royally
screwed.
What are the duties of the executive branch? To make laws or to see that
they are faithfully executed?
Nothing in our Constitution allows the president to pass a law or make a
law under any circumstances. Nor is there any suggestion that the
Congress can delegate their lawmaking authority to the executive branch,
emergency or no emergency!
Yet they have done it and they continue to do it without any permission
in the Constitution or any amendment. How do they ignore their oath to
uphold and support the Constitution? Why not ask them?
Let's explore their law making activities . . . government uses a
publication called the Federal Register where all regulations are
published daily. (Regulations? Where the hell did that come from?) This
publication amounts to more than 70,000 pages a year. Here is where the
executive orders are published.
When they appear, they remain in limbo for 30 days and the Congress or
any citizen can write and object to it. 70,000 pages a year would take a
full-time staff member of each member of the Congress to watch and study
these 'regulations'. Congress pays no attention to the Federal Register.
At the end of the required thirty days, all these regulations become
'law' and have the full effect of law! There are occasions where these
are challenged in courts when they have affected some individual and a
few have been overturned. See how simple they have made it? Write it,
put it in a federal publication and if no one says anything about it, it
mysteriously becomes law.
All sorts of regulations from every division of the executive branch are
published in the Federal Register and this is where all the goodies are
listed. If you doubt the 'laws' in the Federal Register have teeth,
write the Government Printing Office and request a copy.
What happened to the concept that only the Congress can make a law? Did
you say it was OK or was there an amendment passed by the people
allowing this to go on?
Now let's look at some of the real dirty work they have done with
executive orders. . There are over 12,000 laws of this type on the books
now. Congress, when asked, does not even know what they are. This is our
lawmaking body. Part of the government that is supposed to "establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence,
promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty" . . .
snicker, snicker . . .
This one is really scary . . . A blueprint for a dictatorship!
Executive Order No. 11921 was published in the Federal Register in June
1976 and updated since. This is the master plan for tyranny and the
death of our Constitution.
All the President has to do is declare a national emergency and big
brother will or can take over every form of newspaper, radio and
television stations. They will confiscate your CB's, weapons, tell you
where to live, work, how much food you can have, establish rationing and
price controls. In effect, they can declare martial law and you will not
be able to do anything about it. Neither can the Congress.
Can you imagine a law like this on the books in this country?
All they are waiting for is a certain set of circumstances and someone
who wants to be a dictator and away we go.
If you haven't heard or read about Executive Orders, this one
especially, let me break the bad news. It's on the books.
Most bureaucrats and their egghead lackeys, when asked about this
executive order, will say it only concerns the orderly control of the
country if we have a nuclear attack. This is a cockeyed lie!
The opening words of Executive Order 11921 are blunt: "WHEREAS our
national security is dependent upon our ability to assure continuity of
government, at every level, in any national emergency type situation
that might conceivably confront the nation; and WHEREAS effective
national preparedness planning to meet such an emergency, including a
massive nuclear attack. . ."
Look closely at the words they are using, "any national emergency . . .
including massive nuclear . . . " is clear.
They can decide what the emergency is and it does NOT have to be nuclear
attack.
Congressional investigators began to look into this subject and found
470 special statutes which can be invoked by the President in a declared
national emergency. Where the hell did they find the power for him to be
able to declare a national emergency?
Senator Mathias testified before a House Judiciary committee in 1975:
"Under the authority delegated by these statutes, the President may
seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize
commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize
and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation
of private enterprise; restrict travel; and in a plethora of particular
ways, control the lives of all American citizens."
This is only the frosting . . . Wait until we look at the real powers
they will have when they decide which day will be 'X-Day'.
How can this be? From this 1975 testimony, Congress is aware of what can
be done yet they do nothing to control this power. Are they all part of
this 'mutual admiration society' in the cesspool known as Washington DC?
Most will probably tell you "I don't know this, so it must be false."
Where did we go wrong? How did they assume this power in absolute
violation of the Constitution and all the oaths they have taken before
they took office?
What was it the President swore? "That I will faithfully execute the
office of the President of the United States, and will to the best of my
ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United
States."
Is this preserving, protecting and defending the Constitution? Is their
oath just a bunch of words to be recited when they take office? If he
were going to do what his oath requires, why hasn't a president told
Congress to pass a law abolishing executive orders?
Why hasn't the Congress simply taken the lawmaking ability away from the
president? Why hasn't Congress assumed their duties as required by the
Constitution? Looks like we have allowed things to get away from us in
the last few years, doesn't it? What do our kids have to look forward to
if we don't stop this horse dung now?
Let's take a look at some of the powers they will assume if there is
"any national emergency, including nuclear attack":
Part 9-Department of Commerce Section 901. Resume of Responsibilities.
The Secretary of Commerce shall prepare national emergency plans and
develop preparedness programs covering:
1.The production and distribution of all materials, the use of all
production facilities (except those owned by, controlled by, or under
the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense or the Atomic Energy
Commission), the control ofall construction materials, and the
furnishing of basic industrial services except those otherwise assigned,
including:
0.Production and distribution of and use of facilities for petroleum,
solid fuels, gas, electric power and water;
A.Production, processing, distribution, and storage of food resources
and the use of food resource facilities for such production, processing,
distribution and storage;
B.Domestic distribution of farm equipment and fertilizer;
C.Use of communications services and facilities, housing and lodging
facilities, and health, education, and welfare facilities;
D.Production, and related distribution, of minerals as defined in
Subsection 702(5), and source materials as defined in the Atomic Energy
Act of 1954, as amended; and the construction and use of facilities
designated as within the responsibilities of the Secretary of the
Interior;
E.Distribution of items in the supply systems of, or controlled by, the
Department of Defense and the Atomic Energy Commission;
F.Construction, use, and management of civil aviation facilities; and
G.Construction, use and management of highways, streets, and appurtenant
structures; and
H.Domestic distribution of health resources.
Scary? Unbelievable? You bet it is. And this is on the books right now
just waiting for the moment to declare any type of national emergency.
Do you believe for a moment that we will still be using our computers
with the freedom we enjoy today? Chuckle . .
Let's just suppose there were several major bank failures and powers
that be decided that they couldn't afford any more failures. A national
emergency was called.
Under part 17 of the same executive order, they will take over the
complete supervision of all banks and banking operations . . . To the
point that they will decide if you can take any money out of your
account. They will demand to know what you will spend it for and decide
how much you can have. However, if they do not have enough funds to give
the full amount, they can ration the funds. If they figure you want your
money to hoard it, they can simply refuse to give it to you. Cute?
This includes all banking facilities, so don't feel safe just because
your money is in a credit union. They have everything covered! Each
check they honor for over $1000 will have to have both sides
photographed and of course, none of these regulations will apply to any
transactions between banks. Just who does this money belong to?
Is it still the United States? Makes you wonder . . .
For those who dabble in the stock market, under part 25 they will assume
the power to close the market, suspend any redemption rights, freeze
prices of stocks and bonds. Then they will allow it to reopen only when
they decide conditions permit and under their complete control. Remember
when Roosevelt changed the value of an ounce of gold from $20 to $35?
Who benefitted then? Not us.
And for you readers who own property and believe that property belongs
to you, we have a little surprise. Not if this executive order becomes
effective. You will own nothing then. Here's what Part 22 of the
Executive Order has to say about that:
9.National industrial reserve and machine tool program. Develop plans
for the custody of the Industrial plants and production equipment in the
national industrial reserve and assist the Department of Defense, in
collaboration with the Department of Commerce, in the development of
plans and procedures for the disposition, emergency reactivation, and
utilization of the plants and equipment of this reserve in the custody
of the Administrator.
10.Excess and surplus real and personal property. Develop plans and
emergency operating procedures for the utilization of excess and surplus
real and personal property by Federal Government agencies with emergency
assignments or by State and local governmental units as directed,
including review of the property holdings of Federal agencies which do
not possess emergency functions to determine the availability of
property for emergency use, and including the disposal of real and
personal property and the rehabilitation of personal property.
What do they mean by excess property? Will they tell you what of your
property is excess? Are these decisions meant to punish people who had
the foresight to put away coins or food for bad times? If you have been
wise enough to sock these items away, please don't tell anyone.
And what is 'rehabilitation of personal property?' If someone doesn't
like the way you use your property, will they take it from you and give
it to someone else? Rehabilitation is 'restoring to good operation or
good management'.
Are these powers we granted to the central government under the
Constitution? Where do they get the idea that they can issue Executive
Orders and decide a certain day that the Constitution is dead?
Did you notice that the Department of Commerce will take over all
housing and lodging facilities, does that mean your home also? Maybe it
also needs rehabilitation?
They will assume control of all health, education and welfare
facilities. You'd better believe it will include all schools, public and
private, elementary and secondary. There will be no arguments about
school prayer or momentary silence anymore. The decision will be made
for us.
The implications are staggering. This is a blueprint for a dictatorship
and slavery. No, I haven't been smoking loco weed . . . this is for
real.
Plans are all set "to assist civilian educational institutions, both
public and private, to adjust to demands laid on them by a large
expansion of government activities during any type of emergency. This
includes advice and assistance to schools, colleges, universities, and
other educational institutions whose facilities may be temporarily
needed for Federal, State, or local programs in an emergency."
Wonder what they mean by "adjust to demands laid upon them by a large
expansion of government activities?" Again notice the special words:
"during any type of emergency." They didn't even mention major nuclear
attack.
Since "large expansion of government activities" is not defined, do they
have any limitation? All this is in store for American citizens.
They have established what they call the 'Federal Preparedness Agency'
under the General Services Administration which has the responsibility
to see that this program is carried out. We should keep our eye on the
GSA.
Better yet, get after Congress to get this law making ability taken away
from the executive branch of government.
This program of executive orders is the most dangerous weapon in the
hands of government designed to make us all slaves. If "X" day is
called, America will be no more and we will be powerless to do anything
about it. Our action has to be NOW. Waiting one day too long will be one
day too late.
Many will not believe this could happen in our country.
Write Congress and raise questions about this. Ask how they delegated
their law making powers to the executive branch.
Ask where they found this authority. Ask your Congressman for a copy of
this particular executive order.
Imagine 12,000 laws of this type on the books at the present . . . All
without any authority from us. And of course, no need to tell the
American people about these, they wouldn't understand them anyway. Is
this part of the glory of the position in government? Congress has
delegated emergency powers to the president . . . Congress has no power
or right to delegate any of their powers. No where in our Constitution
does it say anything about giving 'emergency powers to the president'.
The argument goes that in today's world, time could be important and the
president has to be able to act quickly. It may be true, however, it
cannot be in this country without a grant for that authority from the
people.
No where does the right appear to do any thing in case of a mistake or
an emergency. The procedures are well defined and it is our duty to see
that they are observed. There is no other way in the United States!
If they feel granting emergency powers is so important, propose an
amendment to the Constitution and see if we will agree to the
importance. Of course the amemdment procedure is slow and cumbersome. It
was meant to be that way. We have ordained and established the authority
for our government and only we can agree to changes.
Just because a practice has been used for a long period does not make it
right. If the practice was unconstitutional when it began, it is STILL
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
George Washington wrote in his Farewell Address: "The basis of our
political systems is the right of the people to make and alter their
constitutions of government. But the constitution which at the time
exists till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole people
is sacredly obligatory upon all."
He plainly recognized the basis for our government. When did this change
occur? It has been said that tyranny comes on slowly. Before anyone
realizes it, it's present. Is that what we have today?
Is this the vehicle to make our sovereignty disappear and for the USA to
become a full fledged member of the United Nations under Bush's New
World Order?
THE TRAITORS ARE WITHIN THE GATES NOW!
