Why do you keep putting that rope around my neck and duplicating my blog?
Let’s talk about the Supreme Court/Constitution/Democrats/Republicans.
The Supreme Court’s job is
The U.S. Supreme Court serves as the highest court in the nation, acting as the final interpreter of the Constitution and federal laws, with the power of judicial review to strike down laws or actions that conflict with the Constitution. Its job description includes resolving disputes between states, ensuring that the government operates within constitutional limits, protecting individual rights, and serving as the court of last resort for cases involving constitutional or federal law.
When a representative is elected does he swear to abide by the Constitution?
The job of a member of the U.S. House of Representatives involves serving as an elected federal official for a specific congressional district for a two-year term. A Representative’s duties are primarily focused on lawmaking, oversight, and constituent services, while balancing district interests with national priorities.
Key duties and responsibilities
- Legislation and voting: As part of the U.S. Congress, a representative introduces, debates, and votes on federal bills and resolutions. The House has the exclusive power to initiate revenue bills and to choose the president if no candidate wins an Electoral College majority.
- Committee work: A significant portion of a representative’s work occurs in specialized committees. Serving on these committees allows members to develop expertise on issues and monitor the agencies and programs within their jurisdiction.
- Oversight and investigation: The House is responsible for ensuring that federal agencies and government programs are implementing laws as Congress intended. This includes conducting investigations into the executive branch and other federal officials.
- Constituent representation: Representatives are expected to serve and advocate for the people in their district. This often includes meeting with constituents, holding town halls, answering inquiries, and assisting with issues involving federal agencies.
- Electoral activity: Representatives are elected to two-year terms and are frequently engaged in electoral activities, including campaigning and fundraising for themselves and their political party.
- Office and staff management: Members of Congress oversee the staff and offices that support their work both in Washington, D.C., and in their home district. This involves managing budgets and ensuring compliance with ethics rules.
Qualifications
- Age: Must be at least 25 years old.
- Citizenship: Must have been a U.S. citizen for at least seven years.
- Residency: Must be an inhabitant of the state they represent. They are not, however, required to live in the specific congressional district they represent.
- Each representative must: (1) be at least twenty-five (25) years old; (2) have been a citizen of the United States.
Yes, every member of the U.S. House of Representatives takes an oath to support and defend the Constitution. The requirement for this oath is established in Article VI of the U.S. Constitution.
The current oath, prescribed in Title 5, Section 3331 of the U.S. Code, is a solemn promise to the Constitution, not a political party or individual.
Now that we understand the system, let’s discuss the issues:
We currently have governors/reps from blue states who are not following the Constitution.. In fact, they are working against the Constitution if they are using progressive/socialists ideology which is happening. A good example is during the college protests, the reps were for Hamas not the Constitution.
What should happen to those people?
I am concerned that we have a fraud going on in that we are electing people in the Democratic Party who are running as socialist/progressive like in New York. How can they be qualified under the Democrats’ banner when they are using taxpayer funds and they are against the Constitution?
If elected and not use the Constitution – how will the Courts rule?
This needs to be addressed.
Text of the oath
Members-elect of the House repeat the following words, administered by the Speaker of the House, at the beginning of each new Congress:
The oath includes a promise to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies and to bear true faith and allegiance to it. It also states the obligation is taken freely and that the duties of the office will be discharged faithfully. The full text of the oath can be found in the referenced documents.
Historical context
The wording of the oath has changed over the years. Notably, the phrase “against all enemies, foreign and domestic” was included in 1861 during the Civil War to address loyalty concerns.

The courts have to resolve this because people are elected who do not use the Constitution and run for election under false premises. If they are elected/work against the Constitution they have to be disqualified. This has weakened our government. The people who profess to be PROGRESSIVES are in office by committing fraud.
We have to strengthen our Constitution by enforcing it. Right now we are allowing it to turn into MILK TOAST. It must be done before the next election.
