This classic video needs to be seen again because we are on our topic of democracy vs. Constitutional Republic. I made this video (full of my trademark snark) after one particular egregious ruling in my legal case against the County of Orange.
P.S. My lawsuit is still active as we are awaiting the judge's final ruling on whether or not the County has to follow the emergency law during an emergency! (yes, you read that right!)
You see, our founding fathers knew that the accumulation of power in one serpent's hands may lead to enslavement, totalitarianism, authoritarianism, communism, and every other "ISM" that runs counter to our God-given need for liberty. To prevent this, they devised a political system so novel that it remains unmatched even today. No other nation has the same political structure as the United States DID.
Yes, once upon a time, the United States functioned as a Constitutional Republic. Unfortunately, there are many (like McConville, Newsom, Chau and others) who fail to recognize the difference between a Constitutional Republic and a democracy (code for socialism). I wrote an entire substack about this topic here.
Our Constitution (which used to exist) deemed the legislative branch so vital that it was described first in our Constitution. The reason, I believe, that the framers of our Constitution described the Legislative Body in such great detail, down to how many representatives and senators there are, when they are elected, what their powers are, what they aren't, when you can get rid of them, and so on, is that no other country in the world had such a system. All previous kinds of government were ruled by a single individual.
The founding fathers settled on a system of checks and balances with three separate branches of government so that power wouldn't be concentrated in the wrong hands — but that system has been thrown out the window by a (corrupt did you say?) superior court judge in California.
Perhaps my own fatal flaw was that I relied on TRUTH. On REALITY. On the FACTS. On the LAW.
Apparently the law doesn’t matter. That is why for the last three years they never used the word “law” they used their favorite word… “MANDATE”
Yes, they LOVE that word “MANDATE” and they never used the word “law” because none of it was ever a law.
It’s worth noting that we won the lawsuit in September of 2022 and Judge Lee ruled in my favor and ordered the county to HOLD a meeting… and guess what? They never did. And they didn't even get a slap on the wrist, but now I know it's because of this new great system in which their votes don't matter, their meetings don't matter, because Judge McConville stated the governor can tell the county what to do. That must mean the President can tell Congress what to do. He did away with that pesky, outdated constitutional republic and is bringing in a lot more streamlined, democratic, socialist, totalitarian one-person rule.
Read the original post here:
I fully appreciate the difference between a democracy and constitutional republic. The US constitution is essentially a libertarian document. In hindsight, we have 200+years of history clearly demonstrating how the concept of limited government through checks and balances doesn't work. We have the biggest and most destructive government on the planet under the banner of a constitutional republic.
I've studied this for a very long time. Murray Rothbard was my mentor. And I certainly don't believe that a name change in our concept of government will do anything to ameliorate our inevitable destiny toward totalitarianism.
After they failed to hold the meeting it seems like you could have sued them for a whole lot of money. They outright disobeyed a court order. When evil doers know they might have to pay hard cash for their evil deeds they cave in. But you know the legal system better than I do. Just sayin'....
