Martial Law In Mascara: How FDR Hijacked The Constitution And No One Told You

The Constitution was not officially suspended in 1933, but it was effectively sidelined by emergency powers, executive orders, and fear. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed Executive Order 2039, closing banks and giving the president sweeping powers to seize private property and control commerce. The Emergency Banking Relief Act amended the Trading With the Enemy Act of 1917, allowing the president to redefine "enemy" to include American citizens. House Joint Resolution 192 declared that debts could no longer be paid in gold, replacing it with fiat currency and effectively nationalizing the American people's wealth. The Supreme Court's decision in Erie Railroad Co. v. Tompkins in 1938 confined federal courts to statutory law, making the Constitution irrelevant in practice. Since then, the US has been living under a continuous state of emergency, with at least 41 ongoing national emergencies in effect. Governments use fear to make citizens more compliant, eroding their sacred rights and conditioning them to believe constitutional protections are optional. The legal system has been transformed into a hybrid of statutory and administrative law, often enforced through maritime law, making individuals legal entities rather than sovereign individuals. Every president has expanded these powers, and the Constitution has become a mere artifact, bypassed by 90,000 pages of federal regulations. Ultimately, the Constitution recognizes inherent rights, and it is up to individuals to remember and assert them.
