Constitutional Updates
NOTE: This didactic effort is intended for all FREEDOM-LOVING, patriotic individuals who give a damn about our Constitution and are willing to take enough time to READ and engage in proscriptive ACTION that will eradicate the brewing "Gathering Storm" that is now threatening the endurance of our revered, up-to-now, FREE Constitutional Republic.

Americans are on the brink of losing their

RIGHTS and FREEDOMS!

Since the U.S. Constitution was ratified on June 21, 1788, the Laws of the Land have been the glue that has kept our FREE Constitutional Republic in existense.

Unfortunately, these days, we can no longer rely on our Constitution as the "Knight in Shining Armor" that will always protect our RIGHTS and FREEDOMS!

The unvarnished truth is that our long-revered Constitution is now being misinterpreted by a few biased, lifetime-tenured justices whose decisions are inconsistent with our time-honored Constitutional Law.

Indisputably, the flagrant attempts being made by the Power-Hungry1 to revoke our Constitution — with tacit Supreme Court majority assent — attest to our crucial need for Constitutional Updates2.

If our Constitutional Republic and its Laws are to prevail, precise, unambiguous, Constitutional Updates, aimed at quickly forestalling any proven, seditious attempt to undermine our form of government — whether written or spoken — must be effected A.S.A.P.!

NOTE: Logically, protecting the free-speech rights of any individual who uses said rights to incite others to engage in seditious acts meant to repeal the very instrument that guarantees Americans' free-speech rights is, at best, irrational and self-defeating!

Americratic Constitutional Updates

RE: Appointed OfficialsAttorney General; National Security Advisor; FBI Director; Prosecutors et al. — especially Federal and Supreme Court Judges

To prevent future Authoritarian-minded presidents from appointing unqualified, sycophantic, self-serving, individuals who — to satisfy their Boss — are willing to ignore the Constitution and the rights of those who disagree with their Boss' anti-American politicies, . . .

. . . Federal-level appointments must be made according to the Nominating Committee rules hereinafter described in our Even-Number Solution.

Regarding Supreme Court Term Limits

The politically-biased interpretations of our Constitution, now being made by lifetime-tenured justices, make it vitally important that a constitutional amendment limiting the tenure of all federal judges be ratified.

Moreover, like any other human being, Justices are not infallible.  As human beings, they are prone to make emotional, biased or questionable decisions that affect millions of individuals.

Accordingly, consistent with our foregoing Americratic conclusions, we hereby extend our suggestions.  To wit:

The Even-Number Solution

To ensure unbiased, UNANIMOUS and egalitarian court decisions that affect the lives of millions of individuals, an equally bipartisan, 5+5, 10-member Supreme Court should be established.

Nominating Committee
  • Nominating Committee: Senate majority and minority leaders shall appoint a four-member (4) committee (2 per party) for the sole purpose of nominating qualified candidates to fill a vacant chair, provided that:
    • All prospective nominees for the Supreme Court shall first be referred to the Senate.
    • No Senate member shall have had any prior business or personal relationship with recommended nominees.
    • The Senate cannot prevent nomination of qualified, recommended nominees.
    • The Senate must promptly refer qualified, recommended nominees to the nominating committee.
    • A full four-member (4) nominating committee approval shall be required to validate all nominations.
    • Promptly after nominations have been approved by the nominating committee, Senate majority leader must bring nominations up for a Senate approval vote.
    • Term of Office: 10-year maximum.
    • Confirmation: shall be approved by a 2/3 Senate majority.
    • Expulsion: Impeachment by House of Representatives majority vote and conviction by Senate 2/3 majority vote required to expel any Justice before his or her Term has expired.
    • Premature Vacancy: filling a premature court vacancy due to expulsion, death or otherwise, shall begin promptly after a qualified, prospective nominee is recommended.

Partisan Fairness

The Founding Fathers intended the "seats" held by our elected public servants as temporary public service positions — NOT lifetime-tenured JOBS

Nonetheless, with some exceptions, feckless, self-serving, elected public servants have turned the House of Congress into a House Of Cronies where — seemingly indifferent to Americans' welfare — keeping their SEATS and benefits for decaces is their primary goal!

As with the SCOTUS problem, to forestall the possibility of future, decades-long tenure, a Constitutional Amendment, designed to undo the House Of Cronies, must be ratified A.S.A.P.

Irrespective of the fact that some voters do not favor TERM LIMITS for politicians they support, our solution allows for non-consecutive reelection.

Presidential Pardons

No incumbent president has the right to pardon family members, staff members, political supporters, campaign members, campaign contributors or Elected Officials who, directly or indirectly, have ever been connected to said president during his or her incumbency.

Penalties For Elected Officials

In the event that any government employee or official, elected or appointed, is found guilty of any felony or crime whatsoever, the severity of any applicable penalty for said felony or crime shall be at least 3 times that which would otherwise be imposed on any other American citizen.

In addition, any and all benefits forthcoming to any such individual as compensation for government service, including pensions, must be deemed forfeited and cancelled.

The late, indecisive response to the January 6, 2021 Insurrection — an attempt to destroy our government and its Constitution — will remain in the minds of FREEDOM-LOVING, patriotic Americans for many years to come.

Given the omni-presence of the Power Hungry, allowing speech that is based on falsehoods meant to incite individuals to engage in seditious attempts to overthrow the government that grants them their right to FREE SPEECH, is nothing short of an invitation for seditionists to destroy our government.

If protecting our FREEDOMS and our government is our intension, logically, any "false, deceiving, seditious writing or speech" that is meant to destroy our democracy must be treated as a criminal, treasonous act that must be ceased and handled immediately by the Department of Justice!

Foreign-Enemy Cronies Act

No elected government official or government-employed individual shall have had any personal connection whatsoever with any citizen of any foreign nation inimical to the interests and welfare of the United States — e.g., Russia, North Korea, China, Hungary, etc.

The 2nd Amendment Excuse

For the sake of protecting their archaic 2nd Amendment rights — allowing disgruntled individuals to form and command their own weaponized paramilitary groups, as the NAZI Ernst Röem did in Germany in the 1930s — is not only illogical, it is deleterious to our Constitution and our FREEDOMS!

Indisputably, the shameful, flagrant, January 6, 2021 Insurrection attests to the urgent need to ratify a Constitutional Amendment that will forestall the slightest seditionist threat to our government!

A Unfair Tax Code

Since the IRS started collecting taxes, taxpayers have been finding ways — legal or illegal — to mitigate, or completely avoid, their annual headache: TAXES!

To add insult to injury, some wealthy individuals and corporations pay no taxes at all.

The tax-rates-seesaw that takes place whenever the opposing party takes control of the government ultimately culminates in TAX CODE changes that its opposing party vehemently abhors.

Ultimately, these tax-rates-seesaw changes, affect the current, growing, $36-BILLION+ U.S. NATIONAL DEBT negatively!
