Judge Rules Obama's Abuse Of Executive Orders Is "Unconstitutional"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Martin Armstrong via Armstrong Economics,

A federal judge, Judge Arthur J. Schwab of the Western District of Pennsylvania, used a deportation decision to probe the constitutionality of President Obama’s executive order on amnesty, declaring it “unconstitutional.”

It is about time that Executive Orders are challenged in court for they are absolutely unconstitutional since they smack of a dictatorial abuse of power that denies the people the right to decide the fate of their nation.

Indeed, Texas and other states have already initiated lawsuits challenging the order. Nonetheless, the key here is that ANY such Executive Order is unconstitutional violating the entire concept of a Republic where it is at least a pretense that it is a government by the people rather than a king acting on a personal whim. This is what the law should be – not because of the subject-matter, but any issue.

Obama could just as easily order that the IRS increase taxes to 85% without Congress. Anything would be possible. This is the immigration issue, but the act of an Executive Order is everything. Obama just issued such an unconstitutional order to the FCC directing them to regulate and license the Internet. There is nothing any President could do without a vote from the people

Consequently, Judge Schwab wrote:

“President Obama’s unilateral legislative action violates the separation of powers provided for in the United States Constitution as well as the Take Care Clause, and therefore, is unconstitutional.”

Well - the American people elected him...twice. Buyers remorse at this late stage won´t really change anything. Obama is what you wanted and Obama is what you got. The majority could have cast their vote in favor of Ron Paul but didn´t. Because he was "unelectable" and other memes that were propagated.

Maybe Americans should take a long hard look at themselves and stop  believing every childish slogan flung like apeshit at zoo their way.

Like -" Yes we can ".

If there´s ever another free election - please don´t do the same stupid thing again. Like going for Billary  or Jeb 9/11 in 2016.

If you do you will be buggered for real. And stop blaming external circumstances. Grown-ups accept their mistakes and take responsibility.

I know, it's a cliche quote, but in this country how could it not be true?

Even so, ultimately, the Collective IS responsible for the quality of government that rules them.

All your counterarguments are false. It´s a well known fact that only something like 40% vote - but that dog won´t hunt. Silence is compliance. And yes there´s probably a lot of manipulation and rigging of the electronic voting system but just blaming everything on Diebold or whatever company that now owns those machines will not do - if you don´t trust the system go to paper ballots or whatever. The last and grandest fallacy is that you only have a few selected candidates - well then go to those PACS or what you call them and tell them that you will roast them over a fire if they don´t get any real alternatives. There will be consequences - for real if they keep this game up.

But no one did. And so the majority voted for Obama and they got Obama so you can´t really complain about things now can you?

As preordained by the teevee show 24, a black prezzydent precedes a woman prezzydent.

There are too few grown-ups on this rock.

Plus, Americans wouldn't know what to do, even if every man and woman were to acknowledge and admit that evil has long been perpetrated from the top-down. We'd just go back to watching teevee.

27:50 Jim Willie says a certain third world country with a high toned "leader" may have an uprising in 2015 by where the third world shithole country's (so far) cowardly military and others finally does that country's Constitutional duty. 

You see a lot more bravery in the Syrian Army and the Ukraine by NovoRussians like Motorola, Givi, Mozgovi, Alexander Zakharchenko, Sterlkov and the others.

Givi is a rockstar.  He looks like he has not slept in a year.  Contrast that to cowards droning weddings or pu**ies like WeZley Clark (tribe) or General Betrayu$ or scum like Hunter Biden.

These are men, like Givi, are not someone you want to send your kid to fight.

Because all Executive Orders are created equal? Right?

I'm guessing if Barry only issued one EO, and that was to come to your house and burn it down, the numbler of Orders wouldn't seem so important.

Funny thing about that Executive Order Meme.  True....Obama has not been handing down Executive Orders as much as his predeccesors.  But he IS handing down Presidential Memorandas like crazy which have the same legal effect as Executive Orders.  They're just more politically correct.  I mean......it' just a memo right.....like at the office.  Means nothing right?

 

Wrong!   Constitutionally and legally it carries the same weight as an Executive Order.  When you combine the two Dictator Faggot is going about it in a blistering pace.  By the end of his last term at this pace he will have exceeded Truman in the combined number of Exwcutive Orders and Presidential Memoranda.

Ah, reflexive partisan defense of "your" dictator.  How refreshing.

 

Note that Obama often uses "presidential memoranda" which are Executive Orders in all but name.  Also, you're presuming no distinction between valid executive orders and ones which violate that which this judge, rightly, noted, has been violated by Obama's acts.

"Separation of Powers"went out the window when Congress authorized Bush to declare War of Aggression against Iraq.

"Separation of Powers" went out the window when the Supreme Court appointed the US President in Bush v Gore.

Hope is a hollow eyed harlot that will put you on a train to Buchenwald.  Change is an inevitable state of flux in which all systems degrade.  I just finished reading Surviving the Economic Collapse by Aguirre.  The most telling comment in the whole book is that the state never goes away it just becomes more tyrannical and corrupt.  The good news is that as it runs out of resources it pulls back its forces to protect its center of power.  The last move will be when Wall Street is shuttered and the bankers, what’s left of them, have moved inside the beltway.  We live in the districts and this is the Hunger Games.

@ talisman.  Total bullsh+t!!.  Both sides of the representative isle voted FOR the war in Iraq.  All the big name Democrats voted for the war WITH CONVICTION.   I am not any fan of Bush who is another liberal but you cannot dispute FACTS.

Also it was Gore who ordered a recount to dispute the "hanging" chads and lost.  Had he simply left the count alone, he might have had a narrow victory.  Anyway, both parties are run by liberals and its liberal policies that has destroyed this great nation.

we had a man in my area who was arrested for DUI four times, each time he reapplied for a drivers license under a different name. being hispanic he simply added or removed or changed on of his four names so it didn't look too fundamentally different (from his birth certificate, you see where this leading?) obama didn't sign the executive order, he directed his DOJ to use selective non-enforcement and that man, Kennedy i think signed the directive. you have to know how to work the system.

Obozo does not give a crap, not one thing will come of it. Barry wipes his ass with the U.S. Constitution daily.

Most likely never read it and most certainly does not agree with it in the event that he did skim over it once.

Barry is a cancer that has a huge dislike for the country and it's founding. So, what else is new.

Respectfully disagree. Best information is that some of Obama's fathers muslem ancestors were slave traders. Slaves were Kenya's bigest export in the late 1700's and early 1800's.  So we are all slaves to a slave-puppet for the hidden elete (or sock puppet if you prefer).

Whilst cheerig thisvery good news ,

I recommend you watch both of the following  Documentaries.

They are in the same class as "Jekyll island" and "Confessions of an Economic Hitman"  .. but in Presentaton form.

RealCurrencies has given a review here :

Two Brilliant Films:

1. ‘Renaissance 2.0 – Financial Empire’ 
2. ‘Princes Of The Yen’ 

http://realcurrencies.wordpress.com/2014/12/20/two-brilliant-films-renai...

The first film shows the "mechanics" of the system.
The second film demonstrates by the Real Example of what happened to Japan.

After watching and understanding the two films , one would hope that it is finally "Game Over" for this destructive Debt Based system. But .. that depends on "us" as individuals to actually do something about it.

Reserve the Link for later ... it is your duty to yourself, your friends and your neighbors.

Notes:

The Trilateral Chessboard 
IMF BIS G20 .. controlling the 3 Big Regions  EURO / US-SA / ASIAN 
Russia - the only outsider 
Corporatisation

The best defense against the system of theft and misery, and usury, is:

The most powerful weapon the American people have is Rejection.

The system of fraud and theft that has been built up upon the backs of the American people is dependent upon our backs. Withdraw our backs, and the whole scheme collapses. This is our greatest weapon.

Stop Paying--Put it into food, and precious metals, etc. They stole whatever "debt money" they loaned you in the first place (fractional reserve banking) and soon you won't be able to pay them anyways, so Stop Paying.
Stop Playing--Stop being a tool for them to use, mock, and call "stupid." Stop Playing.

Stop Obeying--If they are in violation of the Constitution then they are not legitimate anyways, so Stop Obeying their unlawful dictates.

The Four Rs
Rejection: Stop Paying. Stop Playing. Stop Obeying.
Revolution: It is inevitable, so prepare, as they are.
Retribution: The guilty must answer for their crimes against the American people and the Constitution.
Restoration: Restore the American people, country and Constitutional republic.

The banksters need to repay us.

You mean a proof like this:

Let there exit an Executive order.

An Executive Order is equivalent to Treason.

<=> (If and only if) An Executive Order is equivalent to a decree.

<=> A decree is equivalent to a dictatorship.

<=> A dictatorship is equivalent to a totalitarian state.

<=> A a totalitarian state has a White House occupied by a spineless, feckless, empty suit, useful idiot, Wall Street puppet, Teleprompter reading bitch who takes orders from Jamie Dimon and Lloyd Blank-dick-fein,

<=> The spineless Teleprompter reading bitch's only decision power is what cheeseburger joint to order lunch from.

Therefore an Executive Order is equivalent to Treason.

Just because a law purports to address what everyone agrees is a problem - corporate money in political campaigns - does not mean it comports with the Constitution.  That is a mistake liberals, especially, continually make.

Even corrupt law breaking cops at the lowest levels of thugdom know Americans aren't ready to resort to use force to enforce the law because the whole system is filled with criminally corrupt law breaking, oath breaking, secret society scum. So the tyranny will continue

Boehner in all his eye-lined glory gives a Barry a boner and takes Barry's boner. He won't do anything to impeach because he'd lose his lay. Think of Congress as the National version of Chicago's Man Country

So just like the fat slob cop below Obozo will just say "So what are you gonna do about it?"

Stop filing a tax return, take your maximum allowances, pull your FRN's and get something real, get yourself somewhere resembling a free'er living then watch the unfolding. It's illegal to file a tax return.

Don’t forget that President Obama now has the legal authority given to him be the corrupt Congress to declare war against Russia.

Our American democracy (government of, for and by the People) and our American Free Market, Free Enterprise System of Capitalism (free from corporate monopoly) has been overthrown by the Washington fascist (merger of monopoly corporations with government) EMPIRE regime. The corporate monopoly fascist War on Health https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EX3Eyn1tZ04  is part of the fascist overall war against American democracy and capitalism.

The Washington fascist regime has successfully launched their dual war offensive against the American People and Russia via the congressional “Christmas” session.

The New Year offensive by the fascist against the American People and Russia is far from over, the contagion bloodbath in the world economies is slashing deeper every day and Obama is at war that is financed by debt to the banksters.

The fascist banksters transferred trillions in debt to the American People via their totally corrupted and criminal puppet Congress without much debate and no fight.  American pensions, Social Security and social services, which all fascist hate, are doomed and Congress has legally signed American People to be debt slaves to the fascist banksters FOREVER.

 Amazing isn’t it how EMPIRE fascist work behind the curtain to corrupt democracy, but it is no mystery, their evil criminal methods are always the same, secrecy, militarization, torture, mass murder, extortion, bribery and terrorism. Our Founding Fathers had to deal with this same corporate monopoly bankster fascist group (British corporate Empire) and recognized that fascist are the enemy to democracy and Adam Smith’s Free Market system of capitalism economy that must be free from corporate monopoly.

The fascist bankster puppet Congress also passed a war with Russia recommendation based on contrived evidence of Russian aggression on the Ukrainian border, then the puppet Congress, passed another war resolution to escalate that war against Russia in the Ukraine: The Ukrainian Freedom Support Act of 2014

https://www.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/senate-bill/2828

By the actions of their puppet Congress, I would say that the fascist banksters want world war so that they will never be brought to Justice; with war, a legal total totalitarian police state can be declared and dissenters can be rounded up and disappeared.

All exceptional and indispensable psychopath fascist dream of EMPIRE and ruling the world by grand tyranny.

Members of Congress are TRAITORS to all Americans and should be arrested and tried for Treason to the American People and our Constitution.

In the case of revolution, Congress critters are going to be on a deck of cards with a bounty on them; think about that Congressman!

I watched Obama yesterday and it was painful to watch.  The guy is an idiot but I thought that just maybe he would shitcan the sanction of trade with Cuba.  The thing that would make sense to do is to EO those that bullshit and open trade.  Cuba is not going to fuck us and I think you will weaken the Castro brothers by doing so.  Is not the game not US hegemony?  Come on man.  I want to buy Cuban cigars but I do not want to go around and have to get them through another country.  That is just foolish.  What is the rationalization for any of this?  I do see that they have issues in Cuba but we have issues here.  Why can't we agree to disagree and trade?

 

That shit is just plain dumb.  Hey Obama, they don't have Russian nukes anymore if they ever did.  Did he say anything about it?  Not much.  As long we are going to run a bullshit monetary system as we might as well let the Cubans in on the game.  Our leader is an idiot and so is their leader,

"High crimes and misdemeanors..."

 

Obama has committed treason and high crimes against the office of presidency and the people, because his actions are willful, repeated, and they are escalating. As a 'constitutional' lawyer he can't say he does not know what he is doing. 

Impeach and imprison, or have Seal Team 6 put him on a plane to Kenya in the middle of the night in his pajamas, like Honduras did to their Marxist president-for-life wannabe, Zalaya. We owe Obama nothing and the entire world would be grateful.

All law in America since its founding has been based upon precedent. And precedent is merely the re-inforcing of the status quo. From all the way back in England. Look at early American judicial decisions, they think nothing of pulling precedent from corrupt English judges like Lord Bacon.
