Can The President Really Make Law?


Ah yes, the frenzy of false media punditry, memes, and speculation strikes again…

CNN, ABC, FOX, NBC, CBS, and all of the bought-and-paid-for U.S. media corporations, now more than ever acting within their prescribed “Mockingbird” rhetorical nonsense, are yet again confusing a very simple concept while relying on the ignorance of the citizenslaved population. A hidden past creates even a hidden present, where the actions of government seem to draw their authority from the ether of the unknown.

And as Obama’s presidential declaration of what is to become the militarized (executive) legal law in the form of an Executive Order forced upon the United States and its people to create “Mexicamerica” is being hailed even by a dishonest Congress as unconstitutional, the propaganda is getting ass-deep. In this classic false dialectic, the congress is once again pretending (lying) to its subject-citizenry that its hands are tied; that the president is acting in a rogue capacity while ignoring “the people’s will” of the congress. All this is merely another attempt to hide the reality that the President is a real, Congressional confirmed and approved and confirmed dictator under emergency war powers.

Let me once again set the record straight… with the congressional record, that is.

In 1933, Congress voluntarily made this little legislative law that all but stripped itself of its own powers to stop such outrageous whims of the president by declaring that the Office of President shall from that point forward have dictatorial powers without need of vote or congressional approval.  In the Act of March 9, 1933, Title 1, Section 1, congress itself declared:

“The actions, regulations, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations heretofore or hereafter taken, promulgated, made or issued by the President of the United States or the Secretary of the Treasury since March the 4th, 1933, pursuant to the authority conferred by subsection b of Section 5 of the Act of October 6, 1917, as amended, are hereby approved and confirmed.”

It was thus codified, and later slightly altered to this:

“The actions, regulations, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations heretofore or hereafter taken, promulgated, made or issued by the President of the United States or the Secretary of the Treasury since March the 4th, 1933, pursuant to the amended [12 USC Sec. 95a], are hereby approved and confirmed. (Mar. 9, 1933, c. 1, Title 1, Sec. 1, 48 Stat, 1.)”

And today it can be found in the U.S. Code in Title 50, entitled “War And National Defense,” and verbatum above as Title 12 Subsection 95a, here:

What was the reaction by the few good men at the time who vehemently opposed such a travesty of interpretive law?

In 1933, at the inception, deliberation, and creation of this official usurpation of the powers and authority of Congress over its Executive (Corporation Sole Roosevelt), Congressman James M. Beck spoke officially, stating (from the Congressional Record):

“I think of all the damnable heresies that have ever been suggested in connection with the Constitution, the doctrine of emergency is the worst. It means that when Congress declares an emergency, there is no Constitution. This means its death. It is the very doctrine that the German chancellor is invoking today in the dying hours of the parliamentary body of the German republic, namely, that because of an emergency, it should grant to the German chancellor absolute power to pass any law, even though the law contradicts the Constitution of the German republic. Chancellor Hitler is at least frank about it. We pay the Constitution lip-service, but the result is the same… the Constitution of the United States, as a restraining influence in keeping the federal government within the carefully prescribed channels of power, is moribund, if not dead. We are witnessing its death-agonies, for when this bill becomes a law, if unhappily it becomes a law, there is no longer any workable Constitution to keep the Congress within the limits of its Constitutional powers… This vast range of powers, taken together, confer enough authority to rule the country without reference to normal constitutional processes. Under the powers delegated by these statutes, the President may: seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities, assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and, in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens.”

–=–

It is important to note that Congressman Beck resigned his seat from the Legislature one year later, in September of 1934, and was quoted as giving the reason for his resignation. He stated that Congress had become “merely a rubber stamp for the Executive.”

Then newly elected criminal-minded president Franklin D. Roosevelt in his inaugural address on March 4rth, 1933 stated :

“I am prepared under my constitutional duty to recommend the measures that a stricken nation in the midst of a stricken world may require. These measures, or such other measures as the Congress may build out of its experience and wisdom, I shall seek, within my constitutional authority, to bring to speedy adoption. But in the event that the Congress shall fail to take one of these two courses, and in the event that the national emergency is still critical, I shall not evade the clear course of duty that will then confront me. I shall ask the Congress for the one remaining instrument to meat the crisis ­ broad Executive power to wage a war against the emergency, as great as the power that would be given to me if we were in fact invaded by a foreign foe.”

–=–

And Congress granted happily and speedily that mutually beneficial request by the president to allow the office to be dictator under the doctrine of necesity, as we read above in U.S. Code.

“Be it enacted by the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the Congress hereby declares that a serious emergency exists and that it is imperatively necessary speedily to put into effect remedies of uniform national application.”

This became the “Act of March 9, 1933″, as written into Congressional law.

–=–

Later in the congressional record, we find other honest appeals to the insanity of a congress that at any time can stop this power of the president with new legislation, but chooses in free will not to do so. This continuous state of multiple declarations of national emergency was speculated upon long ago as the road to dictatorship and martial law in America, again reading from within the congressional record:

“The President has the power to seize property, organize and control the means of production, seize commodities, assign military forces abroad, call reserve forces amounting to 2 1/2 million men to duty, institute martial law, seize and control all means of transportation, regulate all private enterprise, restrict travel, and in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all Americans…

“Most [of these laws] remain a potential source of virtually unlimited power for a President should he choose to activate them. It is possible that some future President could exercise this vast authority in an attempt to place the United States under authoritarian rule.

“While the danger of a dictatorship arising through legal means may seem remote to us today (in 1973), recent history records Hitler seizing control through the use of the emergency powers provisions contained in the laws of the Weimar Republic.”

–Joint Statement, Senators Frank Church (D-ID) and Charles McMathias (R-MD) September 30, 1973.

–=–

Why did these men have such horrific predictions for our current future?

In 1973, the Senate was charged with compiling a report of which it was to decide upon the efficacy and necessity of the continuance of these Emergency War Powers of the Executive Branch, showing that congress certainly has the power to end this nightmare at any time. This report was named Senate Report 93-549, and was commissioned by the “Special Committee on the Termination of the National Emergency”.

The report’s introduction opens as such:

Since March the 9th, 1933, the United States has been in a state of declared national emergencyA majority of the people of the United States have lived all their lives under emergency ruleFor 40 years, freedoms and governmental procedures guaranteed by the Constitution have, in varying degrees, been abridged by laws brought into force by states of national emergency… And, in the United States, actions taken by the government in times of great crisis have ­ from, at least, the Civil War ­ in important ways shaped the present phenomenon of a permanent state of national emergency.”

–=–

In order to cut through all of the bullshit that is being espoused by both mainstream and alternative armchair commentators, let this truth stand as an un-shattering reality. The congress voluntarily gave away its power to say no in 1933 in an official capacity, knowingly allowing all future presidents (the office) to declare and order any thing they wish as law. This is voluntary. And this act in U.S. Code can be reversed any time that congress wishes. The problem is, they don’t disapprove of the presidents actions, accept in public forums where the idiots who vote for them can see them pandering and appealing to the sympathy of the unknowing masses.

They say their hands are tied, and yes that is true. But they control the rope. They made the law that ties their hands, and at any time at all they can unmake that law.

But what would happen then? What would happen if this office of dictator were suddenly de-authorized?

That would mean congress would lose all of its modern post-war emergency power! It would mean that all “actions, regulations, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations heretofore or hereafter taken, promulgated, made or issued by the President of the United States or the Secretary of the Treasury since March the 4th, 1933,” would lose their authority. For emergency powers are supposed to be as temporary as any other declaration of war. But the wars against all the declared emergencies are still in effect, and even the Federal Reserve, which was created in a state of emergency under the auspices of the “Emergency Banking Act”, would need to necessarily be put to rest. Literally, the only way that congress can have so much power is to allow the president dictatorial power by vesting that power through congress to the office of president. Thus, the Hegelian dialectic is perfected within a false competition between congress and the monster it created and can destroy at any time.

Make no mistake, folks, congress is not opposed to legalization of illegal aliens into the nation. The more debt slaves the better. But rest assured that you are about to see endless congressional debate and media talking heads spouting more B.S. than you can stomach, all in the name of hiding the fact that you live in a pre-confirmed dictatorship that is both approved and continued perpetually and voluntarily by the United States Congress assembled.

Stop saying that everything that is happening in Washington is unconstitutional damn it! This law was in 1933 passed to bypass the constitution through emergency power!!! So guess what… that means that everything is “constitutional” by necessity  under a suspended constitution! Necessity is a state of lawlessness!!!

You want to change the political spectrum? Get the truth out. Embarrass congress when they lie and pretend that their political hands are tied. Demand that this reality be the one and only political subject and topic of debate at the presidential elections. Demand that this permanent declared state of emergency be banished by this and any future president and the law allowing this Congressional appointed dictatorship abolished. For this is the very soul of Homeland Security, the Patriot Acts, and all other emergency acts, declarations, and Executive Orders that violate every possible right imaginable. Without the power of emergency and war, which is the power of necessity (necessity knows no law), everything would have to go back to what it was before the military ruled the nation through executive force under emergency war powers.

Without this power and authority, congress would need to once again recognize the limitations to itself by the constitution, for necessity knows no constitution, either.

Until you stand up, foreigners are going to come. Illegal wars will be waged. Oppression will ensue. And the president will be dictator with the full and unfettered legal support of you, the People, as re-presented in congress.

The truth is that you are a militarily and politically defeated people.

You perish from lack of knowledge.

And admitting that is the first step…

      You’re right, only the USCorp, but the laws of this Corp are for ALL US citizens (14th Amendment citizens) and this is opposed to Art 4 state Citizens.
      U.S. citizens are without a constitution and until a majority of them start reading and understanding statutory construction and the difference between statutes and regulations As well as stop being “residents” we are all screwed

        There is no remedy in their courts, there is no remedy in the political system, DEMON-ocracy, or under any constitution, nor is there any remedy in commerce, so you have to decide whether or not you remain a citizen. As Winston Shrout says, if you want to get totally free then stop using the number – and that is easier said than done – unless you’re Amish. LOL

  3. Great, great and inspiring piece of work, Clint. I’ve been one to cry out for citizen participation,learning, knowledge, about these matters but Americans insist that “it’s a done deal, nothing we can do about it”. That means we the people are lazy slugs.
    Understanding is the first key to learning the necessities that we face. Obama must and CAN be throttled and we can insist that Congress man up and do its job. Until we demand these things, we have no chance to stop the avalanche.

    Great work, significant words that must be used to encourage citizens that they can make a difference. Live free or die….just that simple.

  4. Hi, Clint. Great research and analysis per usual! I’m not sure if you saw it or not, but I recently approached what I feel is at least one of the central sets of watershed events relating specifically to, “And, in the United States, actions taken by the government in times of great crisis have ­ from, at least, the Civil War ­ in important ways shaped the present phenomenon of a permanent state of national emergency.” http://garylandggsboo.wordpress.com/2014/11/11/observations-supporting-existence-of-the-perpetual-state-of-marshal-law/

    Any thoughts of yours would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  6. And look where we are now with the Coronavirus mandates. In March 2020, almost two years ago, then-POTUS Trump placed the U.S. under “national emergency”. This was when the WHO declared COVID-19 a “global pandemic”. The more things change, the more things stay the same.
