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 exec-
utive 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 . . . govern-
ment 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 Govern-
ment 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 lib-
erty" . . . snicker, snicker . . .
This one is really scary . . . A blueprint for a dicta-
torship!
Executive Order No. 11921 was published in the Federal
Register in June 1976 and updated since. This is the mas-
ter 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 trans-
portation 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 faith-
fully 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 of
all construction materials, and the furnishing of basic in-
dustrial services except those otherwise assigned, in-
cluding:
(a) Production and distribution of and use of facilities
for petroleum, solid fuels, gas, electric power and water;
(b) Production, processing, distribution, and storage of
food resources and the use of food resource facilities for
such production, processing, distribution and storage;
(c) Domestic distribution of farm equipment and fer-
tilizer;
(d) Use of communications services and facilities,
housing and lodging facilities, and health, education, and
welfare facilities;
(e) 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;
(f) Distribution of items in the supply systems of, or
controlled by, the Department of Defense and the Atomic
Energy Commission;
(g) Construction, use, and management of civil aviation
facilities; and
(h) Construction, use and management of highways,
streets, and appurtenant structures; and
(i) 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 avail-
ability of property for emergency use, and including the
disposal of real and personal property and the rehabilita-
tion 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 emer-
gency."
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 Administra-
tion 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 govern-
ment? 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 presi-
dent'.
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 with-
out 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 America!
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 amemd-
ment 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 unconstitu-
tional 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?
