Dear Friends,
It seems to me, seditious conspiracy (the charge the Oath keepers are facing) can only be committed against the Constitution, and never the government. Why? Because sedition is committed against the authority. In the US the authority is the US Constitution. Which demands the government be constantly challenged by the people’s speech, our conspiring in our churches and even resorting to violence if it becomes absolutely necessary. It is as simple as that. The people do not exist to serve government, government exists to serve the people. People can engage in insurrection against a government but sedition can only be committed against the founding authority. Which means that if the federal government charges anyone that pledges themselves to our Constitution, as written and meant with seditious conspiracy, it proves that government itself is guilty of seditious conspiracy.
The first thing we have to establish is that the government derives all of its authority from the Constitution. The Constitution doesn’t exist to serve the needs of those in government, those in government are there to serve the needs of the Constitution. If a government ceases to serve the Constitution, and instead uses it to cover their naked oppression, then that government is conspiring against our Constitution, and is no longer legitimate. Since it has voided the very document that its legitimacy comes from. Because a government is elected, doesn’t mean it has legitimate authority, unless that election was done under Constitutional restraints, and that government rules within Constitutional limits. The US Constitution is a “charter of negative liberties…” limiting government.
Conspiracy means people getting together and planning something. What is illegal is planning a bank heist. With the caveat, that a bank heist is a far less heinous, socially destructive or as pernicious a crime as conspiring against our Constitution. Conspiring to get the federal government to follow the Constitution can never be seditious, since it is not against the Constitution, but against a government that is seditiously conspiring against our Constitution. By definition, anything that government does is a conspiracy. Federal bureaucrats conspire to, regulate the extraction of energy, how farmers must farm and that your children be indoctrinated in the State religion, atheism, not one of which is Constitutionally allowed… before the Supreme court shredded our Constitutional protections.
Sedition is the act of overthrowing a legitimate government by subversive means. A government can only be legitimate if it follows the Constitution, else changes it in a manner that the Constitution itself has set forth. In the case of the US Constitution, the manner to which it is legitimately changed is lengthy and arduous. The Supreme court was never meant to change it arbitrarily, to “keep up with the times.” In fact the process to change it was intentionally difficult so that it would not follow the fashion of the times. They knew it is wise to follow fashion in dress but to follow custom in lifestyle. Fashions change with the wind while customs are built out of the life experiences of generations of people. A Constitution must not follow fashion… yet the elite have perverted it so.
Seditious conspiracy is exactly what the government is engaged in when it charges Oath Keepers with seditious conspiracy. The Federal government is following Bill Ayers urging to would be tyrants, to “Charge the enemy with what you yourself are doing…” How can anyone with a straight face, honestly and without shame, argue that a government that has a department of disinformation, shut down churches and has federal law enforcement agencies that are obviously dedicated to the seditious overthrow of our Constitution… is legitimate? Moreover, creating false flags like the Whitmer kidnapping hoax and the Jan 6 Reichstag fire, then charging the dupes with seditious conspiracy, proves beyond a doubt the government is guilty of seditious conspiracy.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
