How the Courts and Bureaucracy Destroy the Constitution

It has been building up to this point for the past 250 years. The U.S. Constitution was originally designed to divide the powers of the federal government among its three different branches (Congress, Executive, and Judiciary). The 10th Amendment to the Constitution went further and reserved to the States respectively, or to the people “the powers not delegated to the United States.” This separation of powers was intended to prevent a consolidation of power that would inevitably lead to the end of representative government.

James Madison warned of this danger in Federalist No. 47 stating, “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

There is a case now pending in the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals that perfectly illustrates how close we are to that danger becoming a reality. College of the Ozarks v. Biden, involves the attempt of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to impose a “directive” issued in February, 2021 to all colleges and universities to require them to follow HUD’s policies on “sexual orientation and gender identification” and thus end the practice of maintaining separate housing by biological sex.

Those policies would compel the college to “start letting men into our young women’s dorm rooms, showers and locker rooms” according to an op-ed piece by Jerry C. Davis, the college’s president, in the Nov. 17, 2021 Wall Street Journal. He went on to argue that HUD’s agenda was a two-pronged attack on the First Amendment.

Almost immediately after it was passed, the Federal Government began its run to usurp the power of the State Governments. All these Federal Programs has been successful in usurping those Powers as they all come with conditions.

I think the author eluded too but missed the mark in naming a big culprit in chipping at the Constitution which is case law. The courts us case law (which can be judged wrong such as the sex orientation case) as the camel’s nose under the tent to give the GVT more power.

let’s blame the GUNS and not the people.

let’s blame Congress and the courts,
and NOT MALTA, and NOT CHINA, dual passports,
and the traitors each control.
