Dear Friends,
It seems to me, we are witnessing in real time, the transfer of power from the constitutional government, to an administrative state. To that end, we are being manipulated in a myriad of ways. The John Fetterman candidacy is one example. He is clearly cognitively impaired yet continues to run, and more importantly, people will still vote for him. Why? Because he will be a reliable democrat vote. That is all. No one’s voting for him because they love his garbled message, limited wit or goiter. Moreover, the democrat party isn’t choosing the best man for the job, because the job wields a rubber stamp, the administrative state does the governing… via the delegated authority of the constitutional government. Soon the President, House, Senate and even courts will be relics, like the monarchy.
When the administrative state raided a former President, they were and are, claiming superiority to determine what is classified… over the authority from which they derive their power. Absurd on its face yet it is being done right in front of ours. The bureaucracy is directly involving itself in our elections, in self interested ways, which makes the bureaucracy itself a direct threat to the democratic element of our Republic. Moreover, the entire edifice of the administrative state, the bureaucracy, is based on Wickard v Filbern, a Supreme court ruling, not the Constitution. The thousands of bureaucrats, billions of dollars and absurd regulation… is all based on what a few unelected men ordered. Which means the very premise of the administrative state’s power is based on flawed logic.
The permanent government, the bureaucracy, is the real power behind the throne, as the praetorian guard was in Rome. They consider themselves an aristocracy of experts. Why shouldn’t the smartest people in the room lead? They are the smartest after all. Just look at their credentials. If you could take the most well trained people to regulate the world, the world would run like a Swiss watch, built in China. Why wouldn’t the bureaucrats believe themselves the best suited to rule? They have the degrees, the institutional memory and the pathology. Arrogance is a primary attribute of the administrative state however, and arrogance always leads to self serving, which leads an aristocracy to become an oligarchy. Especially those without oversight, limit or consequence.
Let’s face it, the role, scope and reach of government has grown far too much, to be administered by anything approaching the constitutional government, laid out in the US Constitution and supporting documents. That is why we need the administrative state to take over. Well… that, else return to Constitutional rule. That would entail ridding ourselves of huge swaths of government. Who would destroy energy without the energy department, education could flourish without the malevolent oversight of bureaucracy, and who would do the false flag terrorist attacks without the FBI? History shows, we can’t count on a group vilified for political leverage, to do their own terrorist attacks. We need the FBI, CIA and MIC for that. An administrative state is incompatible with the Constitution.
The elite don’t want us to have a choice. They see the administrative state as the inevitable successor to constitutionalism. Unlimited global rule by experts, they see their utopian vision as the culmination of Socrates Philosopher kings, but in the form of an aristocracy of experts. Being so much better than the common run of Man, they are certain that absolute power will not corrupt them absolutely, only a little. We should have a choice though. We represent humanity, not 1% of the 1%. Our voice has power. So… do you want the administrative state to be the real government and start down the slippery slope to global oligarchy? That might be a step too far for some people. Else, is a return to constitutionally limited representative government, preferable? The choice really is yours… not theirs.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
