The First Family is celebrating their second Christmas in the White House.  This year’s theme, “American Treasures” honors the unique heritage of America.  Designed by First Lady Melania Trump, the White House shines with the spirit of patriotism.  This home, held in trust for all Americans, displays the many splendors found across our great Nation.

In the East Wing, the Gold Star Family tree returns.  Decorated by Gold Star families, this tree honors all our troops and families who have sacrificed greatly to protect our freedoms.  Gold stars and patriotic ribbon decorate the tree and visitors are encouraged to write messages to their loved ones who are on duty or abroad on the digital tablets provided.

It is amazing how the other side can twist anything to suit their delusions.

Now do the black inner-city youth and your party’s failure to respond to the suffering they’ve caused them over the last six decades.

It should tell us something about how full of shit Democrats are. https://t.co/G0e2IBR5jH

Central to the silly arguments made by the “Convention of States Project” (COSP) is their claim that 200 years of Supreme Court opinions have increased the powers of the federal government (as well as legalized practices such as abortion); that all these opinions are “the Law of the Land”; and we need an Article V convention so we can get amendments to the Constitution which take away all these powers the Supreme Court gave the federal government.

But the text of Article V contradicts COSP’s claim. Article V shows that our Constitution can be amended only when three fourths of the States ratify proposed amendments. The Supreme Court has no power to amend our Constitution. And it’s impossible for an amendment to take away powers our Constitution doesn’t grant.

1. First Principles

Let’s analyze COSP’s silly argument. We begin by looking at First Principles:

♦The Judicial Branch was created by Art. III, §1, US Constitution. Accordingly, it is a “creature” of the Constitution. ¹

♦The federal government came into existence when the States, acting through special ratifying conventions held in each of the States, ratified the Constitution.²

Since the Judicial Branch is merely a “creature” of the Constitution, it follows that it is subordinate to the Constitution, and is completely subject to its terms. It may not annul the superior authority of the States which created the Judicial Branch when they ratified the Constitution; ³ and as a mere “creature” of the Constitution, it may NOT change the Constitution under which it holds its existence! ⁴

It is no longer a question of whether or not we, as Americans, should revolt, we have all known that was the ultimate outcome for a long time. There is nothing left of the nation to which we might have taken a pledge to defend. That time has passed as surely as the time for obedience to the crown had passed. The only remaining stumbling block was the notion that somehow–even if we knew better–the vote would get us out of trouble. That perhaps, we could do well enough and turn the country around and our opposites would see that it was best to vote for the policies that worked for the nation. And, even if we didn’t believe that, we told ourselves that, knowing that we were lying. But, rampant voter fraud and the complete disregard for the laws proved that our “opposites” had latched onto the rationalization that Trump was a racist to vindicate their wholesale cheating in the elections and their full intention to do so until they regained power. Now that they have won the House in that manner, they can concentrate on the Senate and President in the next election. They are printing pre-cast ballots for Hillary as we speak.
