"National
Emergency: A state of national crisis; a situation demanding
immediate and extraordinary national or federal action" Black's
Law Dictionary
"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... for when this bill
becomes a law, ...there is no longer any workable
Constitution to keep the Congress within the limits of its
Constitutional powers." -Spoken by Congressman
Beck in 1933 prior to the passage of the Farm Bill.
Once an emergency is declared, there is no
Constitution. Senate Report 93-549 (written
by Congress in 1973) states in the very first sentence
"Since March
the 9th, 1933, the United States has been in a state of
declared national emergency. 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...
control the lives of all American citizens"
This situation has continued absolutely
uninterrupted since March 9, 1933. We have been in a state of
declared national emergency for nearly 63 years without knowing
it.
According to current laws, as found in 12
USC, Section 95(b), everything the President or the Secretary
of the Treasury has done since March 4, 1933 is
automatically approved:
"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 6th, 1917, as amended [12 USCS Sec. 95a], are hereby
approved and confirmed. (Mar. 9, 1933, c. 1, Title 1, Sec. 1,
48 Stat. 1]".
On March 4, 1933, Franklin
D. Roosevelt was inaugurated as President. On March 9,
1933, Congress approved, in a special session, his Proclamation 2038 that became known as the
Act of March 9, 1933:
"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 national emergency exists and
that it is imperatively necessary speedily to put into effect
remedies of uniform national application".
This is an example of the Rule
of Necessity, a rule of law where necessity knows no law.
This rule was invoked to remove the authority of the Constitution.
Chapter 1, Title 1, Section 48, Statute 1
of this Act of March 9, 1933 is the exact same wording as Title
12, USC 95(b) quoted earlier, proving that we are
still under the Rule of Necessity in
a declared state of national emergency.
12 USC 95(b)
refers to the authority granted in the Act of October 6,
1917 (a/k/a The Trading with
the Enemy Act or War Powers Act)
which was "An Act to define,
regulate, and punish trading with the enemy, and for other
purposes". This Act originally excluded citizens
of the United States, but in the Act of March 9, 1933,
Section 2 amended this to include "any person within the United States or
any place subject to the jurisdiction thereof".
It was here that every American citizen literally became an enemy
to the United States government under declaration.
According to the current Memorandum
of American Cases and Recent English
Cases on The Law of Trading With the
Enemy, we have no personal Rights at law in any court, and
all Rights of an enemy (all American
citizens are all declared enemies) to sue in the courts
are suspended, whereby the public good must prevail over private
gain. This also provides for the taking over of enemy private property. Now we know why we no
longer receive allodial freehold title to our land... as enemies,
our property is no longer ours to have.
The only way we can do business or any type of
legal trade is to obtain permission from our government by means
of a license.
So who initiated all of these emergency powers?
On March 3, 1933, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
adopted a resolution stating that the withdrawal of currency
and gold from the banks had created a national
emergency, and "the
Federal Reserve Board is hereby requested to urge the
President of the United States to declare a bank holiday,
Saturday March 4, and Monday, March 6".
Roosevelt was told to close down the banking
system. He did so with Proclamation 2039
under the excuse of alleged unwarranted hoarding of gold by
Americans. Then with Proclamation 2040,
he declared on March 9, 1933 the existence of a national bank
emergency whereas
"all
Proclamations heretofore or hereafter issued by the President
pursuant to the authority conferred by section 5(b) of the
Act of October 6, 1917, as amended, are approved and
confirmed".
Once an emergency is declared, there is no
common law and the Constitution is automatically abolished.
We are no longer under law. Law has been abolished. We are under
a system of War Powers. Our stocks,
bonds, houses, and land can be seized as Americans are considered
enemies of the state. What we have is not ours under the War Powers given to the President who is
the Commander-in-Chief of the military war machine.
Whenever any President proclaims that the
national emergency has ended, all War Powers shall cease to be in
effect. Congress can do nothing without the President's signature
because Congress granted him these emergency powers. For over 60
years, no President has been willing to give up this
extraordinary power and terminate the original proclamation.
Americans are an enemy subject to tribunal district courts under Martial Law wartime jurisdiction; a
Constitutional Dictatorship.
