In
an article on WesternJournalism.com
they report: “Even though Obama himself has called such executive
action illegal 25 times, as documented by Fox News, the president is now
planning to issue a unilateral decree that will declare up to 5 million
illegal immigrants eligible for amnesty.”
And:
Already, Republicans on Capitol Hill are reacting strongly to the long-expected executive order.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz assails the presidential action as “the tactics of a monarch.”
GOP
Rep. Steve King of Iowa says, “The president is throwing this nation into a crisis.”
Indeed he is. His actions are unprecedented, unconstitutional, and
will cause a firestorm. Even Obama, in previous days, has condemned the
same actions he is now taking (rule by Executive Order to circumvent
Congress) as “unconstitutional.”
Read the following from Oath Keepers founder and President, Stewart Rhodes:
NOTE FROM STEWART RHODES:
Obama’s
declaration
of intent to rule by decree and grant “amnesty” to millions of illegal
aliens is an impeachable offense, and Obama should be impeached and
removed from office. This is a good test to see if the Republicans
have the courage of their claimed convictions. If they don’t impeach
him for this, then they will lose all credibility, and throw us into a
TRUE constitutional crisis, because they will have failed to do their
jobs, leaving the people with the necessity of pursuing “other options”
to stop him.
And this is not about race. I am 1/4 Mexican, and come from a
family of migrant farm workers in California, on my mother’s side. My
mother and uncle grew up picking grapes, and even while I was in the
Army my Grandparents still worked the fields. My Great Grandparents
came here, legally, to have a better life, and they and their decedents
worked hard to attain that better life (working their way out of the
fields).
And others are welcome to come here and do the same, but they must
do so legally, and Congress has ALREADY established the laws and rules
for immigration, and until Congress changes those laws and rules, it is
the duty of the President to execute them, not obstruct them, or
attempt to rule by decree in direct violation of the law.
This is about the preservation of our Republic, and our republican
form of government, which the Constitution mandates that the Federal
government must guarantee to each state. And by violating the law of
the land, and violating our right to a republican form of government,
and by refusing to protect us from illegal invasion, Obama has violated
his oath, grossly, and is unfit for office.
In
his speech, Obama said:
And to those members of Congress who question my
authority to make our immigration system work better or question the
wisdom of me acting where Congress has failed, I have one answer: Pass a
bill. I want to work with both parties to pass a more permanent
legislative solution. And the day I sign that bill into law, the
actions I take will no longer be necessary.
So, Obama’s message is much like an abusive wife-beater who tells his
wife, while beating her, “this is your fault, bitch! I wouldn’t have
to do this if you acted right, and if you want it to stop, YOU’D BETTER
DO WHAT I WANT, OR I WILL CONTINUE TO BEAT YOU.” Obama is telling
Congress that Congress is his “bitch” to abuse as he sees fit, and they
need to shape up and do what he wants. Pass the legislation he wants,
or he will do what he wants anyway, by executive fiat decree, until
Congress does pass the legislation he wants. So much for separation of
powers. So much for the Constitution. So much for a Republican
victory. He will rule
as if his party had won control of both houses of Congress and had actually passed legislation he likes. He will rule
as if Congress doesn’t even exist. He will rule
as if the Constitution doesn’t even exist, and
as if
he were an absolute and unrestrained dictator. He thinks that when he
opens his mouth, “law” comes out. That is what a dictatorship is.
Obama condemned just this kind of action by his predecessor, but now the
“legal scholar” has conveniently forgotten what he knew about
separation of powers and the clear enumerated powers of Congress, or the
duties of a president.
To this impeachable high crime can be added the long list of other
abuses and violations of his oath, from “Fast and Furious” where the
Obama Administration intentionally armed the cartels in Mexico; to his
assault on nearly every provision in the Bill of Rights, including the
First, Second, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments (from “First Amendment
Areas” at Bundy Ranch, to considering a military strike on the
supporters of the Bundy family, to his targeted assassinations of U.S.
citizens abroad and his claim that he can do the same here at home, to
his ongoing assault on the right to bear arms, etc.); to Benghazi,
where Obama sat back and watched as Americans were slaughtered after
being deliberately denied assistance, to cover up for Obama’s gun
running to our enemies; to his deliberate criminal endangerment of the
lives of our people by refusing to stop travel to the US by persons from
Ebola infected nations (and refusal to even mandate a 21 day
quarantine before they can enter) – essentially playing “Russian
roulette” with each flight carrying someone from an infected nation; to
his unconstitutional deployment of active duty and reserves to go to
Africa to “fight” Ebola – where was there even Congressional
authorization of any sort for him to do that, let alone a “declaration
of war” on Ebola?
He leaves us vulnerable at home, with our borders wide open, and our
skies wide open – and even goes out of his way to spread illegal
immigrants, who have not been medically screened or quarantined, all
over the nation, in secret locations (which has already lead to the
death of American children from an enterovirus strain that first
appeared in Central America and spread here after his actions) – while
he sends our troops into harms way for his own political and “world
citizen” Marxist ideological agenda.
Instead of sending the troops to Africa to expose them to Ebola, why
doesn’t he place them on the border with Mexico and secure us from
invasion by the violent cartels (who are taking over ranches and entire
towns on the U.S. side, just as they have done on the Mexican side),
and secure us from documented infiltration by ISIS terrorists who come
across freely? He has intentionally left us vulnerable to those
invasions, and to that violence, and he does all in his power to limit,
curtail, and suppress our own ability to defend ourselves, while
tracking us and using unprecedented surveillance on us, in a clear
indication that he considers We the People the future military enemy of
he and his fellow oath-breakers (and in particular, us military
veterans, who are targeted for disarmament through trumped up
“determinations” by the very Veterans Administration that is supposed to
help us, not disarm us).
And now he is intent on ruling by decree, again, to “make it legal”
for millions of people who illegally entered this nation to remain here,
in direct violation of law. And one obvious reason is that the
Democratic Party is hoping that these new “voters” will be grateful and
vote Democrat from now on, which is a further violation of our
representative form of government.
If we don’t have rule of law that applies to the government, under
the Constitution as the Supreme Law of the Land, then we have a
dictatorship, and We the People are absolved of any obligation or
obedience to such usurpers and oath-breakers.
Impeach him, and remove him, and if necessary, do the same for
Biden, and on down the chain until we get someone who will defend the
Constitution and execute the laws of the Union as they swore to do.
Impeach him now. If Congress does not do its duty, they will have
failed to avoid a coming clash between those of us who will not be
subjugated under a “King Obama” and the militarized police state Obama
and his cronies fully intend to use against us.
Congress, do your duty, under your oaths. Defend the Constitution. Impeach Obama.
