Biden Defies Supreme Court, Expands Dictatorial Powers
Liberty's Corner ^ | August 4, 2021 | Nicholas Forte

Posted on 08/04/2021 10:51:05 AM PDT by Salohcin

Yesterday, ‘President’ Biden violated his oath of office when he announced that the CDC was extending its illegal moratorium on evictions for another two months. Thus, the “fundamental transformation” of the United States from a constitutional Republic to a lawless Dictatorship continues. Biden is knowingly acting in defiance to both the Supreme Court and his own legal advisers.

At the end of June, a majority of the justices on the Supreme Court agreed with a lower court decision that the CDC had exceeded its authority in imposing a moratorium on evictions and mortgage foreclosures. Despite this acknowledgement of the lawlessness of the CDC moratorium, Justice Brett Kavanaugh voted with the liberals on the court to leave the ban on evictions in place because of its pending expiration and “because those few weeks will allow additional and more orderly distribution of the congressionally appropriated rental assistance funds.”

But Kavenaugh also wrote in his separate concurrence:

“In my view, clear and specific congressional authorization (via new legislation) would be necessary for the CDC to extend the moratorium past July 31.”

Biden ignored this clear indication that the majority on the court agrees that the CDC moratorium was illegal and could not be extended, even on extra-legal pragmatic grounds, past July 31. Furthermore, Biden even acknowledged that he was disregarding the opinions of legal scholars who told him that this action would be unconstitutional.

“I’ve sought out constitutional scholars to determine, what is the best possibility that would come from executive action or the CDC’s judgment? What could they do that is most likely to pass muster, constitutionally? The bulk of the constitutional scholarship says it’s not likely to pass constitutional muster, number one [emphasis added]. But there are several key scholars who think that it may, and it’s worth the effort.”

In plain English, what Biden is saying that he is willing to take any action he wants if he thinks he can get away with it, even if he knows the action is unconstitutional. He didn’t even try to make an positive argument about how this action was constitutional. Instead, Biden is announcing that he is willing to act unlawfully and will seize as much power as possible. This is the action of tyrannical dictator, not that of a legitimate president sworn to uphold the rule of law and the constitution.

This action is illegal because the government does not have the right to force an owner to provide an apartment without compensation. Doesn’t matter if the supremes said anything or not.

This action is theft and forcing into slavery.

So, if someone owns an apartment and the tenant does not pay, the owner cannot evict. We should have seen this coming. The left hates it when someone owns something. The government wants to own everything. The country is becoming communist in giant steps.

Rent “control” laws are invalid, as are minimum/maximum prices and mandated minimum hourly rate of pay, affirmative action, minority preferences.

The Supreme Chickens do not decide anything until someone forces them to and then they usually find some way to cut the baby in half.

Start the impeachment process early and often.


First, check to see if your party controls both Houses of Congress.

I never thought so either. And it all happened so fast, and not the way we expected it to.

Not an attorney, but seems to me all one would have to do would be to file with any court seeking an order. Simple as that, but of course everyone is cowering to the political pressure.

How do we recover? Realistically, will these people ever be forced to pay rent or their mortgage? And who will make landlords whole for all the lost rent going on two years now?

Devout Catholic Biden took an oath to God to uphold and protect the Constitution.

I doubt if God is pleased.

Kavanaugh got played. Will he let it happen again?

Not fast though, they have been working the plan for
decades. We have seen it coming and just couldn’t
accept the reality. Our children have been de-nationalized,
to the point where they no longer have pride in our
form of government. In fact they now view it with shame,
no reason to fight for it. In spite of socialism’s
total failure, they think it offers a new solution.

There is a remedy, but it will be painful for all concerned,
and fatal for many.

“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I kind of agree with the eviction moratorium, a little bit. But, I think the property owners should be getting some help, too.”


Talk to me when there is a moritorium on real estate taxes
