Any elected official, regardless of party, should not only be removed from office for violating the oath of office (to uphold and defend the constitution) but should be tried for treason.
Anyone violating the constitution must be executed. The constitution is absolute and anyone challenging that power must be shot. How do you make something absolute? By crushing any challengers. Vermin who dare defile the constitution can only be stopped with execution. Connections and wealth grow, and that only allows their attempts to destroy the constitution grow in power with each passing day. By destroying the deep cancer, namely those that attempt to destroy the US constitution by executing them immediately you make the constitution ABSOLUTE. I do not advocate US citizens randomly try to kill elected representatives, but that constitution violators be put on trial for treason as you mentioned, convinced of treason and executed on the spot. The US is too busy playing in other country's affairs when we should be focusing on our domestic affairs. Hold treasonous scum accountable by death sentence.

1st Amendment: 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. So any "law" that would have been, or would be, passed by congress violating this is invalid, unconstitutional, and should never be complied with

@@dankelly4984 I just pulled up both of them, and read relevant parts. The goal of each is to eliminate SuperPACs. Right? Cruz's proposed bill does that in four sections what "DISCLOSE" act does in five titles measuring fifteen sections. It's simple, focuses on removals and rearrangements of an already established act- which is preferable to stacking on definition after definition in a sane world- elegant, to the point. It speaks in plain words instead of referring to a spiderweb of definitions like "DISCLOSE" does. Its name is direct and firmly establishes its goal, instead of some ham-fisted "safe word" acronym that vaguely has something to do with the bill. It is worded in such a way that it specifically refers to people instead of corporations, thereby shifting focus on the citizens of the country rather than the broken system. This is what a proposed bill or act should be. "Bologna that fixes nothing" frankly sounds more like a- what's it called... Non sequitur? Something along that line. Because it doesn't address what *about* the bill is bologna, and I guarantee you're parroting it from some other talking head that said it. See what happens when people take just a cursory look at your assertions? Even from an emotional standpoint- without even having to look into every single little detail- already I'm on Ted's side because the way he words things is about appealing to the people rather than slapping down a fifteen-section diatribe about "corporations" that frankly has far too many red strings tracing up and down its own page trying to describe every little thing. For instance; We all know that the scummiest of companies use non-profits to become tax-exempt in some fashion. There's a lot of legalese and red strings going back and forth so that the companies can say "nuh uh", but lefties a few years ago *knew* this and were using it as an argument before OWS started up and was subsequently suppressed. Guess who gets immunity from DISCLOSE?
There needs to be a law that automatically removes any senator, congressmen, or any government representative who violates their oath to uphold the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. And they could not run for any political office ever again.

No... If they violate the Constitution there are VERY specific ramifications for doing so. PLEASE - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD - Educate yourselves on how the Constitution works.

It's an interesting question because the Constitution says Natural Born Citizen, and after the Constitution was ratified, there have been multiple Acts of Congress that have defined the terms of Citizenship. However without an amendment to the Constitution, even federal law cannot override the meaning of the requirements of Article II for qualification of Office. You do have the 14th Amendment which recognized birth in the US as an automatic grant of citizenship (with the controversy about "and subject to the jurisdiction", aka the "anchor baby" question). But the 14th does not further define "Natural Born Citizen" directly as used in Article II. Most Constitutional scholars, to my knowledge, affirm that having a citizen parent at birth is the defining element for Natural Born Citizen; but others stipulate that you must be born in the US. Several candidates for President have been born overseas, including John McCain. Edit: This is why the Obama birth certificate controversy was most likely meaningless, since his mother was an American citizen.
@@misspad7282 no you'd still be able to even know if he was born in Canada because his father was an America or something or some kind of thing where he still would be able to be president but the Democrats would give him the same s*** almost that Trump's going through they're never going to give that up they're never going to let their give up on their s***
Correct me if I’m wrong as it’s been decades since I was in high school government class…. I thought that Congress can NOT repeal anything within the amendments, without a “constitutional convention,” which requires 3/4ths of the state’s governors to come together and voting to repeal or make changes to those very amendments. I’m confused.
You are confused 😎. Congress can draft an Amendment to the Constitution with 2/3 majority in both the House and Senate. Once that is done, the proposed Amendment must be ratified by 3/4 of the State Legislatures. The Executive and Judicial Branches at both the Federal and State levels are not included in the amendment process. There is also a route for the State Legislatures to call a Convention of the States. The Convention of the States would propose amendment(s), and then the State Legislatures would have to ratify, again with 3/4 of the States. In this scenario the Congress (and therefore the Federal government) has no role whatsoever.

In this age of hand-held cameras, internet, social media, etc., the propaganda the Left pushes gets debunked as quickly as it's released. As much damage as this administration has done, it's nowhere near as much as they'd like to do, and mid-terms are just around the corner. At the rate their approval is dropping, they'd have to openly declare war to have any hope of actually WINNING the country.

A Law repugnant to the Constitution is void.” With these words written by Chief Justice Marshall, the Supreme Court for the first time declared unconstitutional a law passed by Congress and signed by the President. that the Supremacy Clause (Art. VI, cl. 2) gave the Constitution precedence over laws and treaties, providing that only laws “which shall be made in pursuance of the constitution” shall be the supreme law of the land.749 The general misconception is that any statute passed by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be in agreement. It is impossible for both the Constitution and a law violating it to be valid; one must prevail. The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and ineffective for any purpose Since an unconstitutional law is void, the general principles follow that it imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection and justifies no acts performed under it. An unconstitutional law cannot operate to supersede any existing valid law. No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law and no courts are bound to enforce it. Any unconstitutional act of an official will at least be a violation of the oath of that official to execute the duties of his office, and therefore grounds for his removal from office. No official immunity or privileges of rank or position survive the commission of unlawful acts. If it violates the rights of individuals, it is also likely to be a crime, and the militia duty obligates anyone aware of such a violation to investigate it, gather evidence for a prosecution, make an arrest, and if necessary, seek an indictment from a grand jury and, if one is obtained, prosecute the offender in a court of law.

Unfortunately, the part about officials enforcing unconstitutional laws does not and cannot apply to the members of the Legislature who passed said unconstitutional laws. Only members of the Executive.

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.
So any "law" that would have been, or would be, passed by congress violating this is invalid, unconstitutional, and should never be complied with
Correct!
Please go read what the disclose act is. The stuff he's saying has nothing to do with it. If it does have anything to do with hit he needs to explain. It does not violate the first ammendment that you just quoted. If it does, again he needs to explain.
@@dankelly4984 Have you read it? What does it do?
@@StHappyfacesyeah I went and found it and read it right after I watched this video. the disclose act would make the politicians disclose where all thier campaign contributions come from, and would make some types of foreign contributions illegal. It's a really really good bill and it should be incredibly bipartisan. The bill about campaign finance that he always puts forth and nobody gets on is co players bologna that fixes nothing. That's why nobody wants to sign up. He shoulld be for the disclose act. The only reason to not be for the disclose act would be if you want to keep dark money in politics.
@@dankelly4984 I just pulled up both of them, and read relevant parts. The goal of each is to eliminate SuperPACs. Right? Cruz's proposed bill does that in four sections what "DISCLOSE" act does in five titles measuring fifteen sections. It's simple, focuses on removals and rearrangements of an already established act- which is preferable to stacking on definition after definition in a sane world- elegant, to the point. It speaks in plain words instead of referring to a spiderweb of definitions like "DISCLOSE" does. Its name is direct and firmly establishes its goal, instead of some ham-fisted "safe word" acronym that vaguely has something to do with the bill. It is worded in such a way that it specifically refers to people instead of corporations, thereby shifting focus on the citizens of the country rather than the broken system. This is what a proposed bill or act should be. "Bologna that fixes nothing" frankly sounds more like a- what's it called... Non sequitur? Something along that line. Because it doesn't address what *about* the bill is bologna, and I guarantee you're parroting it from some other talking head that said it.
See what happens when people take just a cursory look at your assertions? Even from an emotional standpoint- without even having to look into every single little detail- already I'm on Ted's side because the way he words things is about appealing to the people rather than slapping down a fifteen-section diatribe about "corporations" that frankly has far too many red strings tracing up and down its own page trying to describe every little thing.
For instance; We all know that the scummiest of companies use non-profits to become tax-exempt in some fashion. There's a lot of legalese and red strings going back and forth so that the companies can say "nuh uh", but lefties a few years ago *knew* this and were using it as an argument before OWS started up and was subsequently suppressed.
Guess who gets immunity from DISCLOSE?
There needs to be a law that automatically removes any senator, congressmen, or any government representative who violates their oath to uphold the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. And they could not run for any political office ever again.

I’ve watched many Ted Cruz speeches the last few years and he always speaks so much sense. I honestly think he’d be a great President.
I'm not sure if he can because he was born in Canada. I think you have to be born in America to be President.
@Miss PAD he is an American citizen, as is/was his mother. He used to carry dual citizenship with Canada, the place of his birth.
It's an interesting question because the Constitution says Natural Born Citizen, and after the Constitution was ratified, there have been multiple Acts of Congress that have defined the terms of Citizenship. However without an amendment to the Constitution, even federal law cannot override the meaning of the requirements of Article II for qualification of Office.
You do have the 14th Amendment which recognized birth in the US as an automatic grant of citizenship (with the controversy about "and subject to the jurisdiction", aka the "anchor baby" question). But the 14th does not further define "Natural Born Citizen" directly as used in Article II.
Most Constitutional scholars, to my knowledge, affirm that having a citizen parent at birth is the defining element for Natural Born Citizen; but others stipulate that you must be born in the US.
Several candidates for President have been born overseas, including John McCain.
Edit: This is why the Obama birth certificate controversy was most likely meaningless, since his mother was an American citizen.
@@misspad7282 no you'd still be able to even know if he was born in Canada because his father was an America or something or some kind of thing where he still would be able to be president but the Democrats would give him the same s*** almost that Trump's going through they're never going to give that up they're never going to let their give up on their s***
Our constitution should not be allowed to be changed in any way period.
That's a bit extreme, women wouldn't have the right to vote if we didn't have amendments.
To all who value free speech, sharpen your teeth. When someone tries to clamp a hand over your mouth to silence you, BITE HARD!
Correct me if I’m wrong as it’s been decades since I was in high school government class…. I thought that Congress can NOT repeal anything within the amendments, without a “constitutional convention,” which requires 3/4ths of the state’s governors to come together and voting to repeal or make changes to those very amendments. I’m confused.
You are confused 😎.
Congress can draft an Amendment to the Constitution with 2/3 majority in both the House and Senate. Once that is done, the proposed Amendment must be ratified by 3/4 of the State Legislatures.
The Executive and Judicial Branches at both the Federal and State levels are not included in the amendment process.
There is also a route for the State Legislatures to call a Convention of the States. The Convention of the States would propose amendment(s), and then the State Legislatures would have to ratify, again with 3/4 of the States. In this scenario the Congress (and therefore the Federal government) has no role whatsoever.
@@bobok5566 Well, I was on the right track at least. Lol. Thanks.

All the Trump Haters can not cite one racist act or comment from Trump when pressed... you know, tangible proof while at the same time, denying or ignoring the long list of crimes involving the Biden family of grifters. As for Americans who only want the government to leave them alone, honor the oath's of office and stop imposing their authoritarian oppression upon them, yeah, I suppose the true Nazis will always hate MAGA people.
Imagine if John F. Kennedy were alive today. He would have to be a Republican with his "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." Kennedy opposed mass immigration, because Kennedy was a LABOR Democrat. Immigration is a tool of macro-economics to DRIVE DOWN WAGES, the reason Labor Democrats opposed current policy and another reason JFK had to be eliminated from American politics.
@@amiehulscher7156 I don't know how you can say that? The first amendment guarantees free speech to the citizens. Every democrat voted to remove it from the amendment. That is what Ted Cruz was railing about. EVERY democrat voted to remove that right. I just don't understand democrats. They literally want to destroy the most free country on the planet. Help me understand you all.
The camera should of panned across the democrats faces while he was talking. Showing how uninterested they were in what he's saying.
Indeed!
Please go read what the disclose act is. The stuff he's saying has nothing to do with it. If it does have anything to do with hit he needs to explain.
God blesses us with you Senator Cruz. Please keep up the fight and stay strong.
Every question to anyone working against the Constitution should ask about ties to Soros as well as the WEF from here forward!
ABSOLUTELY 100%!
I live in Oakland California with a lifelong Democrat teacher. I see first hand how they are conditioned. For the life of me cannot get this person to look at or even consider information that may crumble the tower of lies they are bombarded with through nearly every medium in today's culture. They dont want to explore the cracks within the lies they prefer the delusion and mistake their docility for dignity and sophistication because this is what they are told. They're damn near pod people, its hopeless. I have minimal hope for the future. I see nothing to stop this brainwashing from reversing the damage done. This country is fuct and will be subjagated and usurped.
Starvation and hunger works wonders for common sense
Sorry to hear that you have to deal with someone in such delusion. I hope you’re wrong regarding the future of this country.
When this corruption turns on them , thats when they will wake up. It may be too late then.
It's in trouble, most definitely, but not necessarily f*cked, because there is and will ALWAYS be people willing stand up and fight against tyranny, just as there will always be tyrants. In this age of hand-held cameras, internet, social media, etc., the propaganda the Left pushes gets debunked as quickly as it's released. As much damage as this administration has done, it's nowhere near as much as they'd like to do, and mid-terms are just around the corner. At the rate their approval is dropping, they'd have to openly declare war to have any hope of actually WINNING the country.
There are those who choose to live in a bubble, but the truth is there and easily accessible, no matter how much they try to suppress it. Despite every attempt made by woke corporations (that are now hemorrhaging profits and taking an ass beating in the stock market,) their increasingly consistent failures have proven that "the message" isn't working on a national or even global level and that your Oakland teacher is becoming more and more on the fringe than the norm.
@@averageenjoyer1690 They're everywhere
Inside every democrat is a tyrannical dictator screaming to get out.
Aka a Nazi Progtard.
Or in Amy's case, screaming at their assistants as she eats a salad with a comb.
Oh you mean like Trump a few years ago when he said that after his two terms were up he might decide
to stay in office which would go totally off the rails of Democracy and straight into fascism??

Why don't they give deadlines? Respond in writing by the following date. Then charge them with criminal contempt if congress when they fail to answer.
That's selective, ask Bannon who was charged but ignore Holder doing the same but no consequences
Why aren't they arrested if the ones who are supposed to arrest them don't; then they should be arrest as well
Thought all these folks to a pledge to uphold and protect the constitution. What happened to that?🤔
It is 100% the truth
What free speech. What rights does the common person have.
We tried telling ppl once they go for the 2nd amendment, they’d start going for others
Roe v Wade being overturned proved people don’t have a right to privacy. That’s right. Your wonderful conservative judges voted AGAINST every Americans best interests. But let’s focus on issues that make no difference.

Thank God for Senator Cruz!!!
Election period or not, that was plain righteous speech.
he's trying to appeal to their humanity... they dont have any humanity.
One cannot outlaw free speech.
@@deadtoadsoup Maybe CNN, ABC and all the rest should be outlawed for spreading lies.
This is appalling. Smh
Ted Cruz deals in facts, something the Democrats hate...🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
some liberal principals already do this to teachers. When trump was in office you could not even wear a trump picture on a mask or you got a call from the principal. NOT vote trump, but just his face. OH and BLM was okay to him
Sounds like a anti American.
It's a Lot of us , myself included need to revisit the NAACP vs Patterson .. in the state of Alabama. When the NAACP was Ligit organization. In 1958. Thanks Sen. Cruz.
Did you know that when Barry Goldwater was a city councilman in Phoenix, he became a FOUNDING member of the Arizona NAACP, and he remained a proud member until his death.*
Here's something the Democrats won't like hearing... BYE BYE. Good luck finding another job. Start saving your money now, because you are all going to be laid off by the American people!!
Good one🤣😂🤣 please Vote
Also did anyone tell AoC, no severence pay, and no unemployment, she'll have to back slinging suds😂🤣js
They don't need to save anything. They're all filthy rich on the tax money they stole from you.
I would've disagreed with that soley based on the machines and the un yielding efforts of the Dems to cheat and steal. However! In a presidential race, it's more doable, at least it was in 2020. But in this down line voting, it's going to be extremely difficult. That's why we need to be vigilant about potential upcoming "False Flags whether they be of the weapon or scientific nature. But I'm convinced enough of us a awake and to attempt these False Flags could be to their peril.
Not laid off, FIRED !
Smoked them! I like Senator Cruz's style. Put those slimmy SOB's on record.
Thank you Senator Cruz!
Why can an administration get away with not enforcing the laws?
Because the top lawman is appointed by the administration.
A Law repugnant to the Constitution is void.” With these words written by Chief Justice Marshall, the Supreme Court for the first time declared unconstitutional a law passed by Congress and signed by the President.
that the Supremacy Clause (Art. VI, cl. 2) gave the Constitution precedence over laws and treaties, providing that only laws “which shall be made in pursuance of the constitution” shall be the supreme law of the land.749
The general misconception is that any statute passed by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be in agreement. It is impossible for both the Constitution and a law violating it to be valid; one must prevail.
The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and ineffective for any purpose
Since an unconstitutional law is void, the general principles follow that it imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection and justifies no acts performed under it.
An unconstitutional law cannot operate to supersede any existing valid law. No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law and no courts are bound to enforce it.
Any unconstitutional act of an official will at least be a violation of the oath of that official to execute the duties of his office, and therefore grounds for his removal from office. No official immunity or privileges of rank or position survive the commission of unlawful acts. If it violates the rights of individuals, it is also likely to be a crime, and the militia duty obligates anyone aware of such a violation to investigate it, gather evidence for a prosecution, make an arrest, and if necessary, seek an indictment from a grand jury and, if one is obtained, prosecute the offender in a court of law.
Judy Kerr
Unfortunately, the part about officials enforcing unconstitutional laws does not and cannot apply to the members of the Legislature who passed said unconstitutional laws. Only members of the Executive.
Brilliant and WHY NOT A REPUBLICAN NOT BRING THIS TO THE FLOOR WHEN THE DEMOCRATS BRING BILLS TO THE FLOOR AND THAT IT REMINDS THE PEOPLE AND DEMOCRATS WHAT SIDE OF THE CONSTITUTION THEY ARE NOT ON.
I wonder if Garland would enforce federal law if the latest SCJ were harassed at her home?

Obviously I side & applaud Senator Cruz - unfortunately it's like the wind blowing - these crook / clowns continue their path of destruction in regards to dismantling this country.
They are in bed with China. They want Communism for America!
Thank God we have politicians like Sen. Cruz in office, helping protect our constitutional rights.
We are fighting for our survival Mr Cruz. Let's vote the bums out! And thank you for continuing to fight for us!
No free speech, no democracy
