KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
Founding documents: their relevance today
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE AND CONSTITUTION ARE EXTREMELY RELEVANT TODAY BECAUSE violations of law and CHARGES LEVELED BY THE COLONISTS AGAINST KING GEORGE IN 1776 are also ILLEGAL ACTIONS OF THE CURRENT WHITE HOUSE.
*Denotes text that we simplified for clarity. We use the present tense to make the founding documents more legible and to bring out the essential meaning of laws and the Declaration of Independence.
The Constitution of the United States
PREAMBLE: We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
[From among the many recent breaches of this vision here are two:
The Trump’s Big Ugly Budget Bill endangers Medicaid eligibility for the 337,000
Utah residents on that program, and the hospitals and clinics that rely on their
payments. Most fraud is committed not by patients but by health care billing.
Typically, they “upcode” billings by saying patients are sicker than they
actually are. Appendectomy rather than bellyache. Pneumonia rather than flu.
But it’s the patients' benefits that get cut. How does this promote the
“general welfare”?
A related case involves justice as well as Medicare. Trump recently pardoned Paul
Walczak, a nursing care executive who stole Medicare and SSA payments from his
patients. Walczak’s mother donated millions to Trump’s 2024 re-election campaign.
She paid another million to attend Dinner with the Don at Mar a Lago. The pardon
saved him from an 18-month jail sentence and the return of $4.4 million dollars to
the patients he robbed. Is this the justice our founders sought to establish?
Let’s protect our constitution as it was constituted.]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
ARTICLE 1.
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.
SUMMARY: *The Congress shall have Power to control EVERYTHING ABOUT money, commerce, trade, THE MILITARY, REGULATIONS, and most matters of the country. The MAIN role of congress is to make laws and ANY decision to spend OR NOT SPEND money is ALSO a law.
ACTUAL TEXT: To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, borrow Money, regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, establish Post Offices and post Roads; promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;
provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia,
To make all Laws … for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.
[The White House put tariffs in place without having the authority to do so. Trade is for Congress. White White House is drastically cut funding and even eliminated entire federal agencies that were enacted by law and congress. The White House does not have this power. The White House and cabinet members are turning law enforcement into a loyalist army to violate the rights of all people in the country. They do not have the right to break laws and to violate the rights and freedoms of citizens and others. ].
The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.
[Habeous Corpus is violated in many documented cases. A right to an attorney is violated.]
The Senators and Representatives and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the (*TARIFF) Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
*The framers were unanimous that Congress, as the representatives of the people, should be in control of public funds—not the President nor agencies in the executive branch.
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
ARTICLE 2;
The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the United States, or any of them.
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
[The president and his family has extorted over 20 billion in gifts and benefits from persons by using the power of his role. The request for a 400,000,000 flying palace from Qatar is simply one of many examples of illegal corruption]
THE PRESIDENT MUST take the following Oath:—"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
[The president has denied even knowing what laws constrain his actions. Constant vacationing and golfing, at great expense, endangers the country. The president has allowed almost no briefing of national security personnel and his lack of knowledge lets the worst of the worst make dangerous and bad decisions on his behalf. He has denied and violated the right of the People of the United States to free and fair elections, including by bribery of voters, fraud and extortion of election officials, harassment and intimidation of election workers, and unconstitutionally ordering interference with the lawful administration of elections.] all acts violate the constitution, to which he pledged an oath].
ARTICLE 3.
The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.
The courts have power to rule about
among the people, states and the United states government.
[The White House clearly wishes to disregard all laws of our great country. Attacks on the courts and judges make this clear. The white House repeatedly violates the law, ignores ruling, and members of the White House have threatened the courts.]

THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE AND CONSTITUTION
Citations to news and information are being added into this document as time permits. Please rely on fact-checked news and information.
The first 10 amendments to the constitution, termed the Bill of Rights, defines the fundamental rights of people in the. United States . The 13th- 15th amendments added a clear definition of citizenship for people who had been enslaved, and established birthright citizenship firmly in our laws.
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
The U.S. Bill of Rights
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
[Every aspect of the first amendment is being tossed aside. Muslims are attacked and at risk. Protestors are kidnapped and sent to foreign prisons for their free speech, the press is intimidated and targeted with unfounded accusations wherever their coverage in unfavorable; protestors are smeared and maligned as if they were criminals, visitors to the United States find that their mobiles and social media posts are inspected, and in some instances they are arrested and detained for voicing their views; He has denied and violated the right of the People of the United States to freedom of speech, and of assembly, and to petition the government for redress of grievances, by embarking on a wide-ranging censorship campaign to punish his political opponents, chill opposition, and illegally retaliate against constitutionally protected speech, association, and expression.]
Amendment II
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Amendment III
No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
[Violent entry of homes and cars by federal law enforcement officials, and especially ICE, without a judge’s warrant is captured on video by hapless victims on a weekly basis. This is illegal unless there is actually an invasion going on. Critics regularly get intimidated and harassed by the same federal law enforcement officials. In New Jersey, for example, a swarm of 20 masked and armed men roughed up congress persons and the mayor of the largest city.]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
Amendment V
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Amendment VI

Amendment VII
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.
Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
[Unproven and very minor alleged violations of civil rights laws by some universities are used as an excuse to illegally withhold billions of dollars of congressionally approved federal contracts, to limit foreign students, and scholars and to attack universities: Unproven and silly allegations of journalistic misdeeds are behind extortion of millions and billions of dollars from media companies and tech companies]
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
Other important amendments
13th Amendment:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
14th Amendment:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
[One of the First acts of the White House was to attack birthright citizenship. This action is completely unconstitutional and was paused immediately by a court. The action is clearly motivated by white nationalism, extreme racism, anti immigrant hate-mongering and xenophobia. The president and his main advisors and allies have a length history and record of racist actions, claims, and lies]
15th Amendment: In part states:
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
[Sadly, the three supreme Court Justices appointed by President Trump in his first term joined with other ultra-conservative judges to completely gut the 15th amendment. The voting rights act has been hollowed out and it no longer adhere to this constitutional amendment]
19th Amendment:
*Granted WHITE women the right to vote in 1920. Black, Latina, and Indian women had to wait until 1965 and 1975 to vote]
22nd Amendment:
*Limited the President to two terms in office.
[President Trump has repeatedly and openly stated he intends to violate the presidential term limits established by the Twenty-Second Amendment, and adopted overtly monarchical aspirations and affectations, including by invocation and endorsement of theories that he is above the law or that his personal will constitutes the law.]
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
*THE KING REFUSES TO FOLLOW OUR EXISTING LAWS*
[Lawbreaking is so widespread that many key officials in the cabinet and government do not know, or do not care to follow/know our laws. Head of Homeland Security, for example, claimed that habeous CORPUS law allowed kidnapping. Instead HABEOUS CORPUS, is a fundamental right for everyone in the US, including non-citizens, from the constitution. It requires that the government provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people.” and it provides the right to provide evidence of innocence in a legal proceeding. Furthermore, it can only be suspended by congress]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
*The king DECLARES NEW LAWS THAT VIOLATE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS.
[In 2025, the Trump administration has been involved in a series of controversial detentions and deportations targeting individuals, particularly international students and activists with visas to be in the United States, whose political views or affiliations were perceived as critical of U.S. foreign policy. These actions have drawn national and international criticism, raising concerns about civil liberties and the suppression of free speech. WHITE HOUSE has sent out swarms of armed and marked agents to kidnap, rough-up and sometimes even near-torture non-citizens in the USA. Several prominent cases involved legal residents who were kidnapped and imprisoned for months in the worst prisons in the USA without charges being filed, or opportunity to contact lawyers or family during the first few days of the false imprisonment.]
THE KING HAS NOT allowed elections to occur*
[January 6th insurrection and rioting was an effort to overturn a free and fair election. Dozens of courts found the 2020 election to be free and fair, yet the White House continues to lie about it. Some report that federal employees must repeat this lie to keep their jobs. Federal employees are non-partisan and the White House is violating that vital policy]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING’S ACTIONS AND INACTIONS EXPOSE THE STATES …”to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.”
[The NATO alliance has protected the USA from many threats for 80 years since World War 2. It has prevented many waes. Attacks from our enemies in Russia and China are much more likely because of many actions of the White House. Hundreds of experts in federal agencies have been summarily terminated in order to populate the ranks with loyalists. The FBI no longer protects us from domestic violence and white supremacists. Pro-Russian policies, actions, and propaganda endanger our security. The secure handling of nuclear weapons is in disarray. Russia, China and other enemies have gained troves of top secret data and active assistance to aid their anti-American efforts. National Security Agency (NSA): The number of workers who have left the NSA may be 50%. The deep cuts have raised concerns about the agency's ability to conduct intelligence operations. The Pentagon is led by a drunk who endangers our troops.]
THE KING obstructS the laws for naturalization of foreigners
[Productive immigrants who have been in the country for decades, and lack a criminal record- beyond possibly traffic violations- have been arrested and deported. Foreign students and scholars with legal visas and persons on the path to citizenship (e.g. green-card holders and visa holders at universities) are being terrorized, arrested and detained without charge for extended periods of time.]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING obstructs the administration of justice
[Several courts find that the current Department of Justice deliberately misleads, slow walks, obscures, and has repeatedly defied orders from the courts. This included a 9 to 0 ruling by the Supreme Court!!!!!! Contempt charges are being laid or in progress against several Department of Justice lawyers.
GOP House members and GOP Senators are encouraging this illegal activity in many ways. The Budget bill contains language taking power from the Courts! The GOP senators confirmed unqualified and dangerous cabinet nominees of the White House who are endangering americans on a daily basis. Some of the cabinet members perjured themselves during their confirmation hearings (Kash Patel, R. Kenndey Jr., others), violated laws and policy on a daily basis, and demonstrated often that they do not know the law of our country. Secretary Hegseth, for example, has broadcast our national secrets to our enemies in Russia and China by using leaky communication channels, repeatedly, by including his wife in top secret meetings, by terminating vital parts of the Pentagons that protect our nuclear weapons, make sure that weapons are safe and effective, and more.. The White House is endangering the national security of our Nation by attacking our NATO allies, doing Russian’s bidding, hastening every resident’s early and avoidable death by removing science, vaccines, ebola monitoring, AIDS prevention, women's health and more. They agree with illegal dismantling of federal agencies. They even more unlawful behavior by trying to sneak legislation into a budget bill that prevents courts from arresting lawyers who do are in contempt of court]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING made judges dependent on his will alone
[Judges and courts are under many kinds of attack from the Trump White house, from cabinet officials, from the Vice President and from loyalists. Threats have increased so much in number and severity that courts are requesting more security. There are threats of physical harm, actions that mirror a fatal attack on the family of a judge, threats of impeachments, unfounded arrest of a sitting judge for doing her job, and other violence stirred up repeatedly by the white house on social media and elsewhere to endanger and intimidate judges and court systems. In addition, the protection of judges is controlled by the White House.
A deadly attack on the family of a judge was perpetrated by a person pretending to be delivering a pizza. A coordinated group of pro-tyranny Individuals are using unwanted pizza deliveries to threaten judges and their families. They have doxxed the court officials and are deliberately mimicking the deadly attack in order to intimidate the courts.]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING erected a multitude of New Offices
[DOGE is infiltrated into almost all federal agencies and the unvetted, unqualified, loyalist, where tech workers of DOGE illegally collect and assemble our private protected data. Totalitarian states like China and Russia collect and use data in this same way in order to control and harm their citizens. Many credible sources report that DOGE is using the data to surveille the American people. This is extremely alarming and illegal. CONTACT LAWMAKERS TO PROTEST COLLECTION AND ILLEGAL USE OF OUR PRIVATE DATA]
The King sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people
[Officers from many agencies including homeland Security, ICE, FBI, local agencies, US Marshals, and others are increasingly aggressive, swarm, with masks, wear unmarked clothing and drive unmarked vehicles, violate court orders, kidnap and restrain persons for protected free speech, do not lay charges, and whisk innocent people away to secret locations that include horror prisons in foreign countries. Citizens are caught up in the violent dragnet too.]
THE KING IS quartering armed troops among us:
[Declaration of a 100 mile wide border zone around the entire country, including the oceans, endangers ⅔ of the US population residing there. On the basis of several false emergency declarations, extra army troops, national guard and armed ICE personnel are able to violate the rights of residents there. In this zone it is permitted to stop, detain, frisk, racially profile, arrest, interrogate, search, arrest and hold anyone. Suspicion of illegal activity is not necessary for extended detentions. Everyone’s fundamental rights are vacated there. A white Canadian woman was held for 2 weeks in San Diego after she tried to update her work visa. Non-white persons who speak other languages suffer the worst abuses. Even US citizens have been illegally detained and deported. Several are extremely ill citizen children who rely on constant medical care to stay alive. A New Mexico citizen was held for close to 2 weeks.]
THE KING IS cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world
(Tariffs imposed illegally on the basis of erroneous emergency declaration by this White House are causing massive disruption of international trade and American businesses. Small businesses are damaged the most. In particular, trade with our closest trading partners in Canada and Mexico have been cut and Chinese goods are subjected to enormous tariffs that change every month, seemingly on a whim. Auto workers and many others have already lost their jobs. Russia is not subject to tariffs).
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING imposeS Taxes on us without our Consent:
[All the chaotic Trump tariffs are in fact tax increases. Experts say they amount to ~4 k per family, but the constant illogical changes in policy make it impossible to know for sure. Chaotic policy changes are driving the country into recession and possibly worse economic conditions. The Budget Bill of the White House and GOP plans to RAISE taxes on the poorest among us about 800-900 per person while providing about $390,000 per year of extra money to the ultra rich in our country. In addition, the tax gift to the richest donors of the elected officials would be offset by enormous cuts in health care to about 13-14 million people, no food for poor children and families, and closure of many medical facilities in small communities]
THE KING depriveS us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury
[The US government is effectively kidnapping people for opposing genocide in Gaza: Rumeysa Ozturk, several Columbia students and graduates were targetted because they opposed disproportional Israeli actions in the Middle East. In addition, others with no criminal record are kidnapped and placed in concentration camps overseas because they have tattoos and came from Venezuela. Kilmar, Suri, Schmidt, and many others.
A clear and alarming pattern has emerged that violates the rights]
THE KING transportS us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
[75% of men kidnapped and imprisoned in El Salvador did not have criminal records or criminal charges.U.S. Deportations to CECOT (Trump White House 2025). A CBS News 60 Minutes investigation in April 2025 revealed that the U.S. (under the Trump administration) sent 238 Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison in March 2025, claiming they were all terrorists and violent gang members using a rarely invoked law (the Alien Enemies Act). Crucially, internal U.S. government documents obtained by CBS News indicated that an overwhelming majority (75% or 179 out of 238) of these Venezuelans had no apparent criminal convictions or even criminal charges in the U.S. or abroad. They included ordinary citizens like a makeup artist, a soccer player, and a food delivery driver.]
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
THE KING abolishES our most valuable Laws, and alterS fundamentally the Forms of our Governments
[Congress was given most of the power in our government by the constitution, yet the White House is usurping that power to decide about spending, tariffs, equal rights, the law, regulations, rules, the policies of the governments, trade, taxes, habeas corpus, and much more.]
THE KING burnS our towns,
[Climate change is increasing wildfires and FEMA funding has been slashed. Withdrawing from international climate agreements will only increase the wildfires and danger to our communities and natural environments]
THE KING exciteS domestic insurrections amongst us
[The aspiring-king pardoned 1500 January 6 criminals and has been importing drug king-pins and their families (>17 of them) into the country. The aspiring-king encourages MAGA followers to attack judges, press, critics, women, lgbtq people, immigrants and non-christian, and non-whites. Pardons are being sold to drug pins, con-men, fraudsters, and other criminals. 17 members of a notorious drug family were allowed to enter into the US in May for unspecified reasons. Logic suggests that a large bribe was paid to the Trump family to facilitate this action. Some of these convicted criminals were required to pay billions of dollars in restitution for their terrible crimes, as part of their conviction, yet that money will not be restored to victims after their pardon. Law enforcement involved in protecting the public form these criminals are understandably upset. The public is upset that criminals, including rapists (Sean Combs) and other violent criminals, some of whom confessed to their crimes, are being set free while law abiding persons, some merely doing their jobs are harassed, arrested, detained, imprisoned, and falsely accused, kidnapped and even imprisoned in foreign concentration camps (a prison without law]
Reworded: THE king Is a tyrant. HE IS unfit to rule A FREE people.
KEEP OUR RIGHTS!
We, as, the Representatives of the United States of America “ have been authorized by the people of these colonies, to declare that we are free and independent states”,
That these United Colonies ought to be Free and Independent States;
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
