They Thought They Were Free

To the rescue, here they are !

 


Yes, the Judges (AND Sheriffs, scroll down)... maybe not looking like the one pictured above, however !! ...

Yes, we had "Roe v. Wade" overturned by the Supreme court. Then, "West Virginia v. EPA" as described by the Brownstone Institute

We now have "Judge Alejandro Recarey of the Administrative Litigation Tribunal used his inquisitorial powers to demand the Uruguayan Ministry of Public Health, State Health Services Administration and the President’s Office submit all information regarding the contracts for the purchase of COVID-19 vaccines, including contractual information related to any clauses of civil indemnity or criminal impunity of the suppliers in the event of adverse effects."

And in L.A., "in his ruling, Judge Mitchell Beckloff of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County sided with a parent, whose 12-year-old son attends a public magnet school in North Hollywood. The parent filed the complaint in October 2021, about a month after the LAUSD announced its vaccination mandate."


These examples of an awakening of Justices are not the only ones by far. Others judges have stand against hospitals to allow Covid patient to be treated by outside doctors using 'alternative' meds (Ivermectin & HCQ ...).

We see alike a great involvement of lawyers following in the steps of JFK as we can see through the movement called: "The best lawyers in America take legal action against the FDA"


and also:




These are definitely good news not only because the Judges actions are powerful but because this trend far from being a new development has deep roots in history and most notably in the Bible history where a whole book of the Torah is devoted exactly to the rule of the Judges.


That period of the Hebrews' history that is covered by the book of Judges represents "the time between the conquest described in the Book of Joshua and the establishment of a kingdom in the Books of Samuel, during which biblical judges served as temporary leaders. The stories follow a consistent pattern: the people are unfaithful to God; he therefore delivers them into the hands of their enemies; the people repent and entreat God for mercy, which he sends in the form of a leader or champion; the judge delivers the Israelites from oppression and they prosper, but soon they fall again into unfaithfulness and the cycle is repeated."

 

The ending sentence of the Book of Judges is this one:

(Judges 21)

“In those days there was no king in Israel; 

every man did that which was right in his own eyes.”


This is the exact definition of what Justice should stand for, Harmony, in the words of Socrates reported by Platon in 'The Republic':

“In his dialogue Republic, Plato uses Socrates to argue for justice that covers both the just person and the just City State. Justice is a proper, harmonious relationship between the warring parts of the person or city. Hence, Plato's definition of justice is that justice is the having and doing of what is one's own. A just man is a man in just the right place, doing his best and giving the precise equivalent of what he has received.”

Vote for Health Freedom is Turning the Tide:

"As of June 29, we've chosen 766 candidates we believe will stand for health freedom, awarding 423 of them our full endorsement. After the primaries held so far, 400 of the 766 have moved on to the general election, with 174 of our fully endorsed candidates winning spots on their ballots. Thank you to those who have campaigned and voted for these freedom fighters.

Don't stop now. We need to keep fighting because it's working.

Because of your voice, American lawmakers have begun to wake up and oppose the WHO's attempt to take over U.S. public health decisions.

Since the launch of the SHF action to support HR 419, (No Taxpayer Funding for the WHO Act) there have been 45 new cosponsors!

Two senators, as well as House members of the Freedom Caucus, sent letters to the White House insisting the U.S. reform their relationship with the WHO or pull out altogether.

After witnessing two years of federal overreach, gubernatorial candidates are speaking out against the WHO's actions and promising to stand strong to protect the health of their constituents.

In Missouri, health advocates stopped the confirmation of a public health director who had undisclosed ties to a company pushing vaccine passports.

SCOTUS is holding the line when agencies with no ties to our local communities try to tell us how to make choices in our daily lives."

...



The root of the matter might be traced to Moses' encounter with Jethro in Exodus 18 (14/26):

"And when Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did to the people, he said: 'What is this thing that thou doest to the people ? Why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand about thee from morning unto even?'

 And Moses said unto his father-in-law: 'Because the people come unto me to inquire of God; when they have a matter, it cometh unto me; and I judge between a man and his neighbour, and I make them know the statutes of God, and His laws.'

And Moses' father-in-law said unto him: 'The thing that thou doest is not good. Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee; for the thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.

Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God be with thee: be thou for the people before God, and bring thou the causes unto God. And thou shalt teach them the statutes and the laws, and shalt show them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating unjust gain; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

And let them judge the people at all seasons; and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge themselves; so shall they make it easier for thee and bear the burden with thee. If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people also shall go to their place in peace.'

So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father-in-law, and did all that he had said. And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.



Later in the Journey, (Numbers 11 - 14/17) Moses complains to God that he is alone to rule the people:

"I am not able to bear all this people myself alone, because it is too heavy for me. And if Thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray Thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in Thy sight; and let me not look upon my wretchedness.'

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather unto Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with thee. And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone."


Then we come to the Book of Judges (ch.2 - 11/19):

"And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baalim.  And they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples that were round about them, and worshipped them; and they provoked the LORD. 

And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth. And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and He gave them over into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies. Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had spoken, and as the LORD had sworn unto them; and they were sore distressed. 

And the LORD raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those that spoiled them. And yet they hearkened not unto their judges, for they went astray after other gods, and worshipped them; they turned aside quickly out of the way wherein their fathers walked, obeying the commandments of the LORD; they did not so. And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repented the LORD because of their groaning by reason of them that oppressed them and crushed them. 

But it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to worship them; they left nothing undone of their practices, nor of their stubborn way."

These Sheriffs Are the Difference Between Freedom and Tyranny

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola, July 08, 2022

 

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

Your local sheriff is in charge of enforcing the laws laid down by your state legislature, city or county councils and executive orders made by your state’s governor. If you do not have a sheriff who knows the Constitution and adheres to it, you could end up at the mercy of tyrannical government ocials

One area where your local sheriff might end up playing a crucial role is if they roll out forced COVID-19 vaccinations. Were rules or laws enacted saying you must get vaccinated or be barred from various locations, your sheriff could refuse to enforce them

Your sheriff should safeguard your Constitutional rights and protect your civil liberties against unlawful government overreach. Many, however, lack the proper training

The purpose of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Ocers Association (CSPOA) is to create a partnership between the people, the sheriff and the local law enforcement chiefs, to make sure county sheriffs are trained on Constitutional rights and their own role as guardians of the Constitution and protectors of civil liberties

 

 

If enough people get involved, we can create Constitutional counties and take back America, county by county, one sheriff at a time. Eventually, all the police forces will be on the same page as well, and will no longer enforce unlawful, unconstitutional orders, whatever they might be

Richard Mack, a retired sheriff and current president of Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Ocers (CSPOA), is hard at work, educating sheriffs around the country to get them up to speed on the Constitutional rights of U.S. citizens.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, I was essentially clueless as to the importance of your local county sheriffs. I had no idea how crucial they are. Today, I view them as some of the most important elected ocials we all have the opportunity to vote for. (Three states — Alaska, Hawaii and Connecticut — do not have sheriffs, so their laws are enforced by other ocers such as marshals or deputy sheriffs. )

In this interview, Mack details the action steps you can take to make sure your sheriff is safeguarding your Constitutional rights and protecting your civil liberties against unlawful government overreach.

Supreme Court Targets the Real Enemy

The Mighty Gorsuch vs. the Administrative State: Quotes from West Virginia vs. EPA

BY JEFFREY A. TUCKER,   JULY 1, 2022  

 

The power of the administrative state to destroy liberty and property – to blast through legislation, science, and judicial oversight – was never more on display than in the last two and a half years. One would hope that the deep bureaucracies would have learned their lessons on how not to respond to a new pathogen. There is no evidence they have.

Regardless, the real problem is much deeper. It has to do with the status of the administrative state as the effective governing apparatus of the US. It’s not Congress and not the President. It’s the vast and permanent bureaucracy of 432 agencies and 2.9M bureaucrats who are unreachable by any standard of personnel management.

 

Dealing with this problem absolutely requires that we get back to fundamentals on what kind of society we want and what is the role of government.

These issues are newly alive, and have come up with a Supreme Court decision in West Virginia vs. Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA had long imposed an expansive view of its discretion under the Clean Air Act. The court said no: the EPA has been acting illegally all along. This decision echoes a similar federal court decision in Florida concerning the CDC’s mask mandate. The court said the CDC is acting illegally.

Just because the EPA is tasked with certain acts of administration doesn’t mean it can do whatever it wants in service of the goal. “We would not expect the Department of Homeland Security to make trade or foreign policy even though doing so could decrease illegal immigration,” said the main opinion.

 

Clearly we have a problem that cries out for a mighty rethinking of everything. Just such a statement has been made in the concurring opinion of Justice Neil Gorsuch. Here are some choice sections:

But no less than its rules against retroactive legislation or protecting sovereign immunity, the Constitution’s rule vesting federal legislative power in Congress is “vital to the integrity and maintenance of the system of government ordained by the Constitution.” It is vital because the framers believed that a republic—a thing of the people—would be more likely to enact just laws than a regime administered by a ruling class of largely unaccountable “ministers.” The Federalist No. 11, p. 85 (C.Rossiter ed. 1961) (A. Hamilton). From time to time, some have questioned that assessment.

 

And right here, following great quotations from the Federalist Papers, Gorsuch adds a devastating footnote, one of the best I’ve read in modern court documents. It concerns the legacy of President Woodrow Wilson. Check it out:

For example, Woodrow Wilson famously argued that “popular sovereignty” “embarrasse[d]” the Nation because it made it harder to achieve “executive expertness.” The Study of Administration, 2 Pol. Sci. Q. 197,207 (1887) (Administration). In Wilson’s eyes, the mass of the people were “selfish, ignorant, timid, stubborn, or foolish.” Id., at 208. He expressed even greater disdain for particular groups, defending “[t]he white men of the South” for “rid[ding] themselves, by fair means or foul, of the intolerable burden of governments sustained by the votes of ignorant [African-Americans].” 9 W. Wilson, History of the American People 58 (1918). He likewise denounced immigrants “from the south of Italy and men of the meaner sort out of Hungary and Poland,” who possessed “neither skill nor energy nor any initiative of quick intelligence.” 5 id., at 212. To Wilson, our Republic “tr[ied] to do too much by vote.” Administration 214.

Ouch. So much for the Founding Father of Progressivism!

 

Gorsuch continues.

 

But by vesting the lawmaking power in the people’s elected representatives, the Constitution sought to ensure “not only that all power [w]ould be derived from the people,” but also “that those [e]ntrusted with it should be kept in dependence on the people.” Id., No. 37, at 227 (J. Madison). The Constitution, too, placed its trust not in the hands of “a few, but [in] a number of hands,” ibid., so that those who make our laws would better reflect the diversity of the people they represent and have an “immediate dependence on, and an intimate sympathy with, the people.” Id., No. 52, at 327 (J. Madison).Today, some might describe the Constitution as having designed the federal lawmaking process to capture the wisdom of the masses. See P. Hamburger, Is Administrative Law Unlawful? 502–503 (2014).

Admittedly, lawmaking under our Constitution can be difficult. But that is nothing particular to our time nor any accident. The framers believed that the power to make new laws regulating private conduct was a grave one that could, if not properly checked, pose a serious threat to individual liberty…. As a result, the framers deliberately sought to make lawmaking difficult by insisting that two houses of Congress must agree to any new law and the President must concur or a legislative supermajority must override his veto.

 

Can I get a cheer? Wow.

Permitting Congress to divest its legislative power to the Executive Branch would “dash [this] whole scheme.” …In a world like that, agencies could churn out new laws more or less at whim. Intrusions on liberty would not be difficult and rare, but easy and profuse. See The Federalist No. 47, at 303 (J. Madison); id., No. 62, at 378 (J. Madison). Stability would be lost, with vast numbers of laws changing with every new presidential administration. Rather than embody a wide social consensus and input from minority voices, laws would more often bear the support only of the party currently in power. Powerful special interests, which are sometimes “uniquely” able to influence the agendas of administrative agencies, would flourish while others would be left to ever-shifting winds. Finally, little would remain to stop agencies from moving into areas where state authority has traditionally predominated.

Fascinating: this sounds exactly like the world we’ve lived in since lockdowns!

He continues with a history lesson, citing all the important law papers and books.

With the explosive growth of the administrative state since 1970, the major questions doctrine soon took on special importance…. In the 1960s and 1970s, Congress created dozens of new federal administrative agencies. Between 1970 and 1990, the Code of Federal Regulations grew from about 44,000 pages to about 106,000. Today, Congress issues “roughly two hundred to four hundred laws” every year, while “federal administrative agencies adopt something on the order of three thousand to five thousand final rules.” Beyond that, agencies regularly “produce thousands, if not millions,” of guidance documents which, as a practical matter, bind affected parties too.

 

Finally:

And while we all agree that administrative agencies have important roles to play in a modern nation, surely none of us wishes to abandon our Republic’s promise that the people and their representatives should have a meaningful say in the laws that govern them…. When Congress seems slow to solve problems, it may be only natural that those in the Executive Branch might seek to take matters into their own hands. But the Constitution does not authorize agencies to use pen-and-phone regulations as substitutes for laws passed by the people’s representatives. In our Republic, “[i]t is the peculiar province of the legislature to prescribe general rules for the government of society.” Because today’s decision helps safeguard that foundational constitutional promise, I am pleased to concur.

To be sure, such high philosophy and clear thinking on representative democracy does not on its own dismantle the beast, but this case did rule against the EPA just as previous decisions have ruled against the CDC. It’s a great start. More than that, the Court seems finally to have gained clarity on the real problem, the complete distortion of the system established by the Constitution’s framers in favor of an indefensible dictatorship by the administrative state.

If this is where American jurisprudence is headed – all in reaction to the utter shock that came with the lockdowns and mandates – we have every reason for long-term optimism.

An American Declination Of Codependence

 


An American Declination Of Codependence

MONDAY, JUL 04, 2022 - 06:20 PM

Authored by Brent Hamachek via HumanEvents.com,

 

The following address was delivered on Saturday, July 3rd, 2021 as part of the Red, White, and Blue Tour in Sturgis, South Dakota.

It was 245 years ago that a brave group of American colonists sent what was effectively a legal complaint to the King of England. Inspired by the English jurist William Blackstone, the complaint contained a list of the colonists’ grievances, then demanded their independence as compensation for damages. This citizen’s complaint is commonly known as the Declaration of Independence.

We won our independence, but we now suffer under a new sort of tyrant. We find ourselves bound by the invisible chains of codependence.

 

We celebrate July 4th, 1776, as our nation’s birthday. It is not, in the strictest sense, the date of our birth; nor is it even the actual year. Depending on how you choose to define it, our nation was actually “born” either in 1787 (with the signing of the Constitution), in 1788 (with the ratification of the Constitution), or in 1789 (with the convening of the First Congress). What then should we call July 4, 1776? It is the day we got pregnant. What followed was a long and bloody path toward liberation and birth.

Today, the Declaration of Independence is one of the (if not the) most cherished American documents. Its language is inspiring, and it reminds us of the incredible courage shown and the price paid by those who risked and gave all to secure for us the gift of freedom. It is a foundational part of our history.

But it is not a part of our present. We no longer are a distant colony living under the rule of an unreasonable king. We won our freedom, wrote a constitution, and built a new nation. Using the greatest ideas from the Enlightenment, our founding fathers started us on a path that led us to become the greatest nation in the history of Western Civilization.

 

We won our independence, but we now suffer under a new sort of tyrant. We find ourselves bound by the invisible chains of codependence. We are not being ruled unreasonably by others. Instead, we are unreasonably letting ourselves be ruled by the need to appear caring and helpful. We are supporting, perpetuating, and enabling the irresponsible and destructive behavior of our fellow citizens who are determined to fundamentally transform the tenets of Americanism.

It is, therefore, once again time for a statement to be made and for lines to be drawn. We cannot find the strength to restore our republic if we cannot first find the strength to set our own minds, bodies, and consciences free. It is time to formally and publicly decline to remain codependent.

 

 

THE DECLINATION

When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for a group of people, who believe in the laws of nature and in nature’s God, to dissolve the codependent bands that (to their own great detriment) have connected them to others, a decent respect for the opinions of mankind require that they list the actions they intend to take in separation and rebellion.

 

Let it first be clear, we hold these truths to be self-evident: That all Americans are created equal.

 

That they are endowed by their Creator with, and have had codified in their Constitution, certain inalienable rights. These include the right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and the right to act as we choose insofar as we do not compel others to act as we choose.

That these rights have been gradually eroded, both through public seizure and voluntary surrender.

And to continue to allow these rights to be denied to us by others—or worse, to voluntarily surrender our rights for the sake of and in appeasement to others—is immoral.

Since our present circumstance has become destructive toward the above-mentioned truths, it is the right of the American people to abolish the current state of affairs and to institute a new order, one based upon:

 

Self-understanding

Self-respect

Self-confidence

Self-determination

Self-preservation

 

History has shown that people are more disposed to suffer and stay silent while evils are sufferable than they are to stand up and fight on behalf of themselves. With respect to their perception vis-à-vis others, they also are inclined to be governed and inhibited by three types of fear (*):

 

The fear of losing something they think they have.

The fear of not getting something they want.

The fear of not being liked.

 

These fears can lead a free people to subjugate their own free will, and to establish in its place a sort of social codependence that erodes their freedoms and weakens their very God-given soul. But when a long train of abuses, usurpations, oppression, and persistent censorship leaves them no alternative, then it is their right—their duty—to throw off such suppression, as well as their inhibitions.

Today’s true Americans have spent so much time trying to prove who and what they are not that they have forgotten who and what they are. That ends now.


( * personal comment: Two effectively, the first and second being one)

 


AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR.

 

Therefore, we are resolved that from this moment forward, in declining our codependence on those who do not hold to our truths, that we shall:

Break loose from the self-fitted chains and shackles of political correctness.

Take back our language: no longer will we surrender words and phrases from our language to others. We will use the words we choose, regardless of their contemporary characterization or classification by others.

Not be made to condemn or apologize for the actions of others. Likewise, we will not be made to applaud or affirm the behavior of others. We will apologize only for our own actions, when we feel it appropriate, and we will salute others only when we are personally so moved.

Never deny our friendships or turn our backs on those of us who are being attacked by others simply because it is easier, convenient, or avoids confrontation.

 

In accordance with the above, we will not hesitate to intervene in a situationally appropriate manner when we see one of our fellow citizens coming under attack. To turn away is to become complicit.

Let those around us know that when they attack any one of us, they attack all of us.  We will not tolerate the phrase “but I didn’t mean you.”

Embrace the classical notions of being masculine and feminine whenever and however we choose, and we shall not make excuses or issue apologies for so doing.

Be skeptics at every turn when someone claims to be an “expert,” an “authority,” or a follower of “science.”

Not allow ourselves ever to use the excuse “I was just following orders” to serve as a reason for engaging in or helping to silence or harm our fellow citizens.

Not engage in defending ourselves when we are called “racist,” when we are called “homophobic,” when we are called “privileged,” when we are called “xenophobic,” or when we are labeled by anyone other than ourselves. We will not respond by giving examples of people we know or things we have done to prove what we are and what we are not. We do not need to try to justify ourselves or disprove baseless accusations to others. We will simply respond: “Your words. Not mine.”

Embrace our faith in God if we possess such faith, without reservation. We may wear it on our sleeves, or we may keep it to ourselves. We will display our faith however we so choose, and will not deny the existence or importance of our faith for the sake of providing false comfort to others.

Refuse to acknowledge the need for and legitimacy of “safe spaces” or “microaggressions.”  Simply because someone else decides they are threatened or offended will not be a reason for us to question our beliefs, our words, or our actions.

 

Call “lies” by their proper name—which is “lies.”

Not give the benefit of the doubt to those who seek to silence us or control us by presuming they are of good intentions. We will take them at their word and assume they mean and intend exactly what they say.

Take great care in using terms such as “courage” and “bravery,” understanding that those terms have become corrupted in their use to signify simple acts of hate and defiance. We know true courage and bravery when we see it, and we will not lose sight of either.

Be unwavering and undeterred in proclaiming that the interests of American companies, workers, and citizens must be placed above all other interests when it comes to matters of policy.

Look directly at God, ourselves, and another human being every single day and say these words out loud: “I know who I am.”

 

 

SIGNING OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.

We, therefore, the free people of the United States of America, do solemnly publish and declare our new independence by declining to be codependent upon those who seek to do us harm. There can be no harsher sentence served upon a people than that of being held prisoner to the approval of others.

We recognize that, in making this Declination, we place ourselves at risk of various forms of reprisal. We do so, knowing that the truest expression, the fulfillment of individual freedom, is the willingness to place that freedom at risk for the purpose of preserving it, so that future generations of Americans might enjoy it.

As we join in this Declination, we do so with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, and we mutually pledge to support each other with our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor

And the LORD said:

'Shall I hide from Abraham that which I am doing; seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him ?

For I have known him, to the end that he may command his children and his household after him, that they may keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice; 

to the end that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which He hath spoken of him.'

Berechit 18-17/19
