Fox Host Confronts GOP Rep. Over Opposition to Cheney, Asks if It's Because She's 'Not as Loyal'...

GOP--The party of lies.

Lying to the public

The president’s duty to faithfully execute his office plays a critical role in the constitutional scheme. Going beyond requiring the president to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” Const., Art. II, Sec. 3, Cl. 5, the Clause 8 constitutional duty to “faithfully execute” the presidential office limits the president’s discretion in how to perform his official functions.

“Faithfully” was contemporaneously defined, in part, as: “Honestly, without fraud, trick, or ambiguity.” The oath or command of faithful execution to an office holder came to convey an affirmative duty to act … honestly … in the best interest of the public.” (Emphasis added.)

Accordingly, to faithfully execute the office of the President includes a duty to act honestly. Since communicating to the public is one of the president’s official functions, the honesty duty likewise applies to virtually all such communications. Bush Jr. and Trump “repeatedly making false statements.

Trump had to have known that a pandemic would cause an economic recession or new Great Depression and therein it would reduce his odds of being reelected. He was an accessory to a pandemic (second degree murder or voluntary manslaughter). This crime was a new incident such that our law makers never thought they needed to make a law to punish people who spread unscientific lies or refuting the advice of peer reviewed medical science.




President Bush and seven of his administration's top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraq was part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.

Prosecution of George W. Bush et. al. for War Crimes
WHEREAS there is overwhelming evidence that President George W. Bush and et. al. (his direct subordinates) committed war crimes,

WHEREAS international law requires the United States government to prosecute all war crimes committed by US persons; for example, torture, ghost prisoners, secret jails, used depleted uranium weapons that poisoned the battlefield and civilians for many years following the warfare, and making war on Iraq without a UN resolution,

WHEREAS President Bush et al, ordered the kidnapping of an estimated 150 people from foreign nations (aka “extraordinary rendition”) and delivering them for interrogation by nations having a well documented history of torture,

WHEREAS, Regarding Iraq, the last Security Council resolution essentially said, “Look, send the weapons inspectors out to Iraq, have them come back and tell us what they've found -- then we'll figure out what we're going to do.” But without permission/vote of the UN Security Council, the US invaded Iraq and in so doing the US did unprovoked or "aggressive" war, the highest crime against mankind,

WHEREAS President Bush and seven of his administration's top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraq,

WHEREAS If George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, and others are not prosecuted US government leaders in the future will not fear any personal consequences for going to war without a declaration by Congress,

WHEREAS the claim that the President, as commander-in-chief, can exercise the unlimited powers of a king or dictator strikes at the very heart of our democracy and the rule of law requires a rejection of impunity for the criminal acts of government officials,

WHEREAS 6,900 and approximately 7,800 contractors were killed in Iraq and Afghanistan at the end of 2018, 52,010 wounded in action, and this number does not included are those “non-hostile injuries” and other medical problems such as heat stroke, suicide attempts, respiratory problems, and vehicle crashes,

WHEREAS 970,000 disability claims registered with the VA,

WHEREAS these wars have been paid for almost entirely by borrowing, therefore including the predicted interest payments, the total cost will be over $6 trillion by the 2050s,

WHEREAS more than 480,000 people have been killed by direct war violence in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan and over 8.4 million Afghans, Pakistanis, and Iraqis are living as war refugees in other countries or are displaced from their homes,

WHEREAS every segment of the US electorate–including majorities of Democrats (82 percent), independents (62 percent), and Republicans (51 percent) — want to hold the Bush administration accountable for its role in the destruction of the CIA’s interrogation tapes and the use of torture by the agency,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED we demand the US Justice Department prosecute of George W. Bush et. al. for war crimes,


Resolution regarding the behavior of former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper Jr.

Whereas we believe members of the Democratic Party have a duty to insure the law is faithfully executed,

Whereas on March 12, 2013, after telling under oath US Senator Ron Wyden that the National Security Agency (NSA) (did, not) does not collect data on millions of Americans, former National Intelligence Director James Clapper Jr., …answered the question about classified information in the “least untruthful” manner possible,”

Whereas Clapper replied, “No.” “Not wittingly. There are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect, but not wittingly,” yet without a warrant, NSA did in fact violate the US Constitution,

Whereas Clapper told Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein that his statement was "clearly erroneous,"

Whereas Sen. Wyden, a senior member of the Senate Intelligence Committee said, “One of the most important responsibilities a Senator has is oversight of the intelligence community. This job cannot be done responsibly if Senators aren’t getting straight answers to direct questions,”

Whereas US Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Dutch Ruppersberger (D-CA) did not call for the removal of and/or persecution of then Director of National Intelligence James Clapper Jr. for lying under oath to Congress and they only declined to comment,

Whereas as Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said, “This (Obama) administration views Edward]Snowden as the problem, not Gen. Clapper, and and the president’s pursuit of Snowden rather than the defense of the Bill of Rights, is perhaps part of the reason Clapper will get off scot-free”,

Whereas US Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky) wrote in an op-ed, “If the Constitution is to continue to apply, citizens must maintain their close watch on the eyes of government whose sleight of hand is making our rights no more than an illusion… there is no reason that Americans should sit idly by while their federal representatives let Clapper skate.,”

Whereas Clapper said, “We were shocked. … The trucks we had identified as “mobile production facilities for biological agents” were in fact used to pasteurize and transport milk,”

Whereas Clapper was in charge of the Directorate of CIA’s National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) which is responsible for analyzing imagery collected by satellites and hid the truth about the Iraqi threat in order not to impede the planned attack on Iraq,

Whereas Clapper wrote in his book, …“the administration members who were pushing a narrative of a rogue WMD program in Iraq and on the intelligence officers, including me, who were so eager to help that, we found what wasn’t really there!”

Therefore Be It Resolved, I am troubled that Congress and the Obama administration did not hold James Clapper accountable.
