...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, ...
When elected officials and bureaucracies act outside the law they are simply lawbreakers. When the majority of the people vote in favor of total lawlessness in the highest offices they are withdrawning their consent to be governed by a constitutional government. By what legitimate basis does the United States of America, as a Constitutional republic, still exist?
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
'The People' no longer support that. They voted in support of lawlessness from the highest office on down. They voted against the rule of law. By referendum we now have a banana republic. The USAINO.

The following link is to an old FR thread, about an even older conservative booklet called “The Revolution Was”, written in 1938 about FDR and the New Deal. It is ALL happening again. In the following excerpt - perhaps Obama pushing the antigun orders will meet a similar fate as FDR trying to pack the courts. An excerpt except for my comments in [brackets]:

PROBLEM SEVEN TO REDUCE ALL RIVAL FORMS OF AUTHORITY
The attack on this problem was progressive, with changing features, but the strategy throughout was consistent. The principal forms of rival authority were these four:
The Congress, The Supreme Court, Sovereign States, and, Local Self-Government, for which we may take the symbol to be the County Court House.......
In the special session called by the President to launch the New Deal the Congress for the first time was under the spell of executive leadership and embraced the leadership principle. It did not write the New Deal laws. It received them from the White House, went through the motions of passing them, engrossed them, and sent them back to the President. That was called the rubber stamp Congress. [SOUND FAMILIAR like with Obamacare, etc. !!??].....
Loyalty of the law-making power to the executive power was one of the dangers the political fathers foretold.....
No one can have forgotten the bitterness of the struggle over the New Deal’s attempt to pack the Supreme Court after it had killed the Blue Eagle. Nor can anyone who saw it forget the spectacle of C.I.O. strikers, massed in Cadillac Square, Detroit, intoning with groans the slogan prepared by New Deal propagandists: “Nine old men. Nine old men.” That was collaboration.
At this point the President suffered his first serious defeat. The Congress would not pass his court-packing law. It did not dare to EBB it. Public opinion was too much aroused. Nevertheless, it was possible two years later for the President to boast that he had won. Vacancies on the bench caused by death and retirement enabled him to fill it up with justices who were New-Deal minded, and so at last he did capture the judicial power.

I have said for years, and it was my tagline last year,
“Liberals are nothing but adult children.”
