Thread: Dismantling the Administrative (Orwellian) State
1)
“A Republic, if you can keep it.”
-Ben Franklin’s answer when asked what type of government the Continental Congress had formed for the USA.

2) The United States of America was created by our founding fathers to be a representative Republic, a government of the people, by the people and for the people through which we elect representatives to represent our wishes in their legislation.

3) After studying the types of governments around the world and throughout history, they came up with what was supposed to be a government representative of her people, enshrined with three co-equal branches to keep each other in check.

4) As taken from the website House.gov:

Among other powers, the legislative branch makes all laws, declares war, regulates interstate and foreign commerce and controls taxing and spending policies.

5) The executive branch consists of the President, his or her advisors and various departments and agencies. This branch is responsible for enforcing the laws of the land.

6) The judicial consists of the U.S. Supreme Court & the Fed Judicial Center. According to the Constitution, "[t]he 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 & establish."

7) But over the past several decades, behind the scenes and without the majority of Americans noticing (and the media declining to report) this has all been slowly changing into an Orwellian nightmare of a bureaucracy run by unelected lawyers and bureaucrats.

8) I watched two amazing breakdowns of how our government has been changing without our knowledge, and I would highly recommend you take the time to watch them both.

9) The first is a speech given by Attorney General Bill Barr speaking at The Federalist Society’s National Lawyers Convention in September of 2019.

10) In his speech, AG Barr goes over a large variety of topics, but includes the many unconstitutional actions by President Obama, the unconstitutional acts of regional judges overstepping their legal boundaries to enact national injunctions-

11) (even though they have no national authority) & the progressive party’s use of the judiciary to pass laws they know they cannot get the votes to pass, or which their constituents will not support.
Barr also discusses a steady encroachment on executive authority over time.

12) The Landscape Explained by @tracybeanz goes much deeper down the rabbit hole than AG Barr can go at this point, but outlines what many have described as the “16 Year Plan to Destroy America,” the plan of the progressive party to, through the expected successive Presidencies-

13) of Obama and Hillary Clinton, radically change our nation.

14) So what exactly is the administrative state?

15) It’s a part of what many have taken to calling to Deep State, which was being called out as far back as the early 2000s by Jessie Ventura when describing his time as gov, dealing w/ ppl there before him, would be there long after he left and were virtually un-fireable.

16) Our legislators in the House & Senate, whose job it is to write our laws, have been deferring many of those responsibilities to the administrative state.

17) So when you hear people who are screaming mad at Congress for not doing their job over the past three years while they’ve focused only on their feeble attempts to impeach President Trump, understand that those people are far more correct than they could ever imagine.

18) Congress is supposed to write and pass legislation, but they’ve deferred that duty to lobbyists and administrators.

19) They’re supposed to declare war, but no declaration of war has been issued for our past several wars.

20) And they’re supposed to follow the Constitutional requirements to pass new laws, but have instead run to cherry-picked judges for legislation in place of laws they know will not pass to continue their progressive agenda.

21) Some of these people have been forced to show their faces over the past few months, between the Ukraine and impeachment hearings.

22) As such, Americans are beginning to understand just how many unelected and entitled bureaucrats our system now includes, who believe that their feelings and opinions are more important than the Constitutional authorities granted to the President of the United States.

23) But have no fear. As described in the book Justice on Trial, one of the requirements for a Supreme Court Justice to be on President Trump’s list of potential appointees was a thorough understanding of administrative law,-

24) and Justices Kavanaugh & Gorsuch are both considered highly knowledgeable in the field.

25) AG Barr has been in the games of law & politics for a long time, and if he’s willing to give the speech linked above, taking these unelected administrators & bureaucrats to task, it’s meant as a signal that things are going to be changing back to the way-

26) the Constitution outlined.

27) Of the many triumphs of President Trump’s time in office so far, one of my favorites has been his showing the people of our nation that the progressive party cannot win if they are forced to play by the rules.

28) We’ve seen just how low they’re willing to go in order to maintain their stranglehold on power, and most of the people have finally awakened to their grift.

29) Ben Franklin and the founding fathers created our system to prevent hyper-partisan, corrupt and power hungry people from overthrowing our constitutional and Republican system of government.

30) They would be rolling over in their graves if they saw just how close the progressive party came to taking down what those founding fathers worked so hard to provide for us-

31) -but thankful that someone like
@POTUS
was willing to take the abuse that he has in order to save it from the brink of destruction.

@POTUS Addendum:
If you've never heard of administrative law, at around 25 mins into this course by @HCOnlineCourses it goes into how their authority is not derived through the constitutional means, and most of our laws are now made this way:
