Biden Defies Supreme Court, Expands Dictatorial Powers

Yesterday, ‘President’ Biden violated his oath of office when he announced that the CDC was extending its illegal moratorium on evictions for another two months. Thus, the “fundamental transformation” of the United States from a constitutional Republic to a lawless Dictatorship continues. Biden is knowingly acting in defiance to both the Supreme Court and his own legal advisers.

At the end of June, a majority of the justices on the Supreme Court agreed with a lower court decision that the CDC had exceeded its authority in imposing a moratorium on evictions and mortgage foreclosures. Despite this acknowledgement of the lawlessness of the CDC moratorium, Justice Brett Kavanaugh voted with the liberals on the court to leave the ban on evictions in place because of its pending expiration and “because those few weeks will allow additional and more orderly distribution of the congressionally appropriated rental assistance funds.”

But Kavenaugh also wrote in his separate concurrence:

“In my view, clear and specific congressional authorization (via new legislation) would be necessary for the CDC to extend the moratorium past July 31.”

Biden ignored this clear indication that the majority on the court agrees that the CDC moratorium was illegal and could not be extended, even on extra-legal pragmatic grounds, past July 31. Furthermore, Biden even acknowledged that he was disregarding the opinions of legal scholars who told him that this action would be unconstitutional.

“I’ve sought out constitutional scholars to determine, what is the best possibility that would come from executive action or the CDC’s judgment? What could they do that is most likely to pass muster, constitutionally? The bulk of the constitutional scholarship says it’s not likely to pass constitutional muster, number one [emphasis added]. But there are several key scholars who think that it may, and it’s worth the effort.”

In plain English, what Biden is saying that he is willing to take any action he wants if he thinks he can get away with it, even if he knows the action is unconstitutional. He didn’t even try to make an positive argument about how this action was constitutional. Instead, Biden is announcing that he is willing to act unlawfully and will seize as much power as possible. This is the action of tyrannical dictator, not that of a legitimate president sworn to uphold the rule of law and the constitution.

Maxine Waters’ Lynch Mob Tactics Undermines the Judicial System

In another example of the Democrats’ support of political violence, Representative Maxine Waters (D-California) incited a violent mob in Minnesota yesterday to not to accept anything other than a guilty verdict for Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer on trial for the death of Daunte Wright. Just one day after the week long protests descended into violence, Rep. Waters’ urged protesters at Brooklyn Center to “to get more confrontational.”‘

“I am not happy that we have talked about police reform for so long,” Waters said. “We’re looking for a guilty verdict,'” she added in regards to the Derek Chauvin trial. ‘”If we don’t, we cannot go away.”

“We gotta stay on the street,'” Waters was recorded saying, adding that protesters needed ‘”to get more confrontational” and they should ignore the curfew in place.

Waters has a history of calling for violence to advance the Democrats’ radical political agenda. In 2018, Maxine Waters infamously called for attacks on the Trump administration, telling a crowd of supporters, “If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere.”

Her call for increased street violence to pressure the jury to deliver a politically acceptable verdict is the antithesis of the ideals of the American judicial system. For Waters, and too many other Democrats and Leftists, the judicial system is just another tool of political power. What Waters is doing is substituting the political pressure of the mob for the deliberations of an impartial jury to determine the guilt or innocence of someone on trial. In other words, what she wants is a lynching, not a trial.

Closing arguments in the Chauvin trial are on Monday and it is an open question of whether the jury will be swayed by the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt presented at court or by the political pressure coming from the streets. I wouldn’t want to be on that jury, knowing the consequences of finding Chauvin not guilty.

Nonetheless, anyone who has followed the trial closely knows by now that the prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. To understand full weakness of the prosecution’s case is against Chauvin, I highly recommend Andrew Braca’s article: Chauvin Trial Verdict Prediction (of Sorts): On legal merits alone, not guilty — but political dynamics drive injustice.

UPDATE: Not unexpectedly, the level of violence surrounding the Chauvin trial has escalated only hours after Waters’ incendiary statement. A news release from the Minnesota National Guard said that the Minnesota National Guardsmen security team were fired upon at about 4:19 am, local time early Sunday morning. Fortunately, the injuries two guardsmen sustained were minor. 

The 1776 Report

The President’s Advisory 1776 Commission—comprised of some of America’s most distinguished scholars and historians—on January 20, 2021 released a report presenting a definitive chronicle of the American founding, a powerful description of the effect the principles of the Declaration of Independence have had on this Nation’s history, and a dispositive rebuttal of reckless “re-education” attempts that seek to reframe American history around the idea that the United States is not an exceptional country but an evil one.
