OBAMA’S REICHSTAG FIRE MOMENT TAKES THE STAGE

Sen. Ted Cruz dropped a bombshell, as you will see in this video, where he emphatically states that the United States Senate this year will vote on a Constitutional amendment to effectively repeal the First Amendment. This is Senate Joint Resolution 19 that Se. Cruz is referring to. It proposes an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating to contributions and expenditures intended to affect elections.

This vote will give the Congress the plenary power and unlimited authority to regulate political speech. The door that they plan on using revolves around campaign finance reform, but will extend to all areas of political speech across the board.

“When you think it can’t get any worse, it does,” Cruz said. “This year, I’m sorry to tell you, the United States Senate is going to be voting on a constitutional amendment to repeal the First Amendment.”

“I am telling you — I am not making this up. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has announced the Senate Democrats are scheduling a vote on a constitutional amendment to give Congress the authority to regulate political speech because elected officials have decided they don’t like it when the citizenry has the temerity to criticize what they’ve done,” he added.

I do not believe Obama is going to go quietly in the night. He just couldn't, wouldn't pass up such an opportunity to do something as devastatingly fundamental in the dismantling of our beloved Republic's most cherished, sacred principles. I believe he will go even beyond that. He just won't go without having fundamentally done something to change, weaken the United States of America in some catastrophic way.

I know this is a stupid question, but don't Constitutional Amendments have to be ratified by two-thirds majority of the states?

Or has Ubama removed that requirement?

Obama isn’t supposed to legislate from the Oval Office, but he does.

That is an excellent question for which Senator Cruz has a lot of splaynin to do.The article mentions The Reichstag Fire.It is conceivable that the First Amendment rights will be curbed in ways that are not legal or Constitutional.

Two Thirds of each house of the Congress. Three Fifths of the states.

This is the Democrats playing trickery.

They did it with Sen. McCain - making him a ‘natural born citizen’ though he wasn’t born in the USA. The method used was in violation of the U.S.Constitution’s stated requirement on altering the document.

I predict there will be NO ratification by two-thirds majority of the States; they will ram it down everyone’e throats, in a clear call to civil disobedience.

Ratification requires three-fourths, not two-thirds.
