| ===== The Bureaucrats Now Rule Us ===== A permanent, unelected federal class controls America. Only We the People can stop it, through Article V of the Constitution. I’m not a politician. I’m not in office. But I can see exactly what’s happening, and you can too. I know you can if you just stop, take a deep breath and LOOK! A permanent federal ruling class now governs this nation. Not the people we elect. Not those we can vote out. No, the true power lies with unelected federal bureaucrats, career government elites who serve themselves, protect each other, and operate above the law. They answer to no one. Not to Congress. Not to the courts. Not to you. And especially not to the American taxpayer. This isn’t just a problem. It’s a national emergency. There are now over 2.2 million civilian federal employees. Many of them hold lifetime jobs with guaranteed pensions and zero accountability. Even when caught lying, leaking, or abusing power, we cannot get rid of them. They don’t fear the voters. They don’t fear the Constitution. They fear nothing at all. Michael Farris, a Constitutional Scholar and Legal Strategist, has warned us for years. In his legal battles through the Home School Legal Defense Association and his leadership with the Convention of States, he’s exposed this “fourth branch” of government, the administrative state. Congress hands power to agencies. Agencies make rules. We obey… or else. This is tyranny, cloaked in bureaucracy. The Deep State is real. President Trump is living it. They spied on him. They sabotaged him. They openly defied and are even now defying his orders. These people aren’t loyal to the Constitution. They’re loyal to each other, and their own growing power. And believe me when I say that they are coming for you and me! They control your children’s curriculum. They control your land, your money, your medical choices. They even control your speech. And the worst part? You and I didn’t vote for any of them. We must all remember one very important point; Congress will not fix this. In other words, don’t wait for them, they are part of the problem. How, other than by congressional largess? They have surrendered their power to unelected agencies. They rubber-stamp budgets they never read. And they play nice with the very bureaucrats who’ve hijacked our Republic. That’s why “We the People” must act. The Constitution gives us the power. In it our Founding Fathers gave us Article V, which was written for this exact moment in time. The states, acting together, can call an Article V Convention to propose amendments. No permission from Congress. No help from D.C. Just We the People, using the very tool that our Founders gave us. And, assuming that we are all paying attention, know exactly what we must do. The Convention of States movement is fighting to: ~ Impose Fiscal Restraints on the Federal Government – Washington is (and as a direct result so are we) $36+ trillion in debt. Bureaucrats never pay the price, we do. Enough is enough. ~ Limit the Power and Jurisdiction of the Federal Government – Shrink the administrative state. Rip it all out root and stem. Being nice about this will not serve the cause. ~ Enforce Term Limits on Congress and all Federal Officials – Keep in mind the need to end the ruling class. Public service was never meant to be a lifetime job. These three pillars will end the reign of the bureaucratic elite. Robert G. Natelson, Senior Fellow in Constitutional Jurisprudence, Independence Institute; Leading Article V Scholar and Constitutional Historian, confirms: an that an Article V Convention is constitutional, legal, and long overdue. His research leaves no doubt whatsoever. The Founders gave “We the People” this power because they knew this day would come, a day when Washington would become so bloated, so arrogant, so disconnected, that only the states and the use of Article V could rein it in. Mark Meckler, Convention of States President, says it plainly: “The only thing they fear is losing control.” And he’s absolutely correct. The D.C. elite, both elected and unelected, are terrified of an Article V Convention. Because for the first time in generations, it would shift power back to the states… to you and I. And yes, the fear-mongers are already screeching. Groups like the John Birch Society call it dangerous. They say, “What if something goes wrong?” Well, here’s what’s already gone wrong: America is being run by people you can’t fire, people you can’t actually name, people who think they own you. That’s not freedom. That’s slavery with much prettier and better branding. Their scare tactics are lies. Emotional manipulation. Cowardice dressed as caution. We don’t need more fear. We need boldness. We need action. We need patriots to stand up tall and be noticed. Especially mothers, grandmothers and women who’ve had enough of the lies, the lockdowns, the indoctrination of children and grandchildren. The federal government is using your tax dollars to teach your kids to hate your values, and they’re daring you to stop them. But you don’t need permission to stop them, you just need a deep resolve. Because I am telling you right now that if we don’t act now, if we don’t pass Convention of States resolutions in the necessary 34 state legislatures (all 50 states would be MUCH better), the bureaucratic class will become permanent. Untouchable. Supreme. And if that doesn’t scare the living bejesus out of you then I am not sure what will. I know it sure scares me, just like the nightmares of monsters in the closet and under my bed! Yea, THAT bad, maybe worse! And keep in mind that everything President Trump will have fought for will be reversed or erased. The border crisis will explode again. The economy will be buried in more debt. Government will continue expanding until there's no room left for liberty. And no future president, no matter how bold, will be able to fix it. My fellow patriots, we cannot vote our way out of this anymore. We must fight our way back, peacefully, lawfully, constitutionally, and it is all possible through an Article V Convention. Folks, the hour is late, and the Republic is on life support. But “We the People” still have power, if we choose to use it. Remember, at the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, when Benjamin Franklin was asked, “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” he replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” My friends, we are losing our republic, exactly as Mr. Franklin warned us we could. So, here are the choices that we face, and a decision MUST be made: Do we let unelected elites rule over us, our children and grandchildren forever? Or do we stand up, state by state, voice by voice, and take our country back? I know that I’ve made my choice; what about you? I say let’s call the Convention! How? Go to www.ConventionofStates.com, sign the petition and then volunteer to help take back our country, before it is too late. Remember That History Is Watching! Visit Ken Whaley's Restore First Principles blog HERE. Restore First Principles exists because the system isn’t broken, it’s being broken, on purpose. The Founders handed us a Republic. What we’ve got now? A bloated, unaccountable machine chewing through the Constitution line by line. If that doesn’t scare you, it should. The Bureaucrats Now Rule Us |
