Obama Dictatorship in Progress on all levels


Final Implementation of Obama Dictatorship in Progress on all levels


I have warned and written about this particular subject for over three years—since before Obama was elected—aka “coronated.“  It is only now that many others finally seem to be getting the message.  However, this is not something to be criticized.  It is to be applauded, as it means they are finally and inexorably awakening to the truth.  They are to be applauded and not insulted.  I noticed this morning that—after a few of the latest Obama assaults on the US Constitution and liberties of We-the-People—some in the media (not the Obama media of course) appear to at last to have come to the realization that Obama is and has been a dictator.


Even some members of our feckless and Obama-accommodating Congress are at last saying that Obama is acting in an “extra-Constitutional” (aka “illegal”; “unconstitutional”) and “dictatorial” manner. 
Even though it seems to have taken an inordinate amount of time for even these to ultimately admit that we are in a police-state crisis, I applaud them for having the insight—albeit VERY delayed—to admit the destructive force that is working daily to eliminate the United States of America.  We need all of the help we can muster. 
Obama’s latest shredding of the US Constitution and replacing the USA’s 3-Branch Equal-Powers Federal Government system with his own dictatorship include, but are hardly limited to, the following:
  1. Removing local police presence from communities and replacing them with a federally-paid (that’s US taxpayer-paid) Obama-controlled National Police force.  It is starting—in earnest—in Detroit
  2. Obama is stepping up his issuance of illegal Executive Orders, INCLUDING the Dream Act that was voted down by Congress and opposed by a majority of the American people.  Nevertheless, in June 2011, Obama issued an Executive fiat to ‘create’ it.  Congress did nothing and still does nothing today
  3. Obama is now making “recess appointments” of unacceptable candidates when there is no Congressional recess.  The applicable paragraph in Article I, Section 5 of the now-badly hemorrhaging US Constitution reads:
    Neither House, during the Session of Congress, shall, without the Consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days, nor to any other Place than that in which the two Houses shall be sitting.” 
    Neither the House nor the Senate had adjourned.  In order to get what he wanted (and now everything he wants toward his explicit mission of the total destruction of the United States of America) Obama continues to patently and illegally further shreds what was left of our US Constitution—now obviously not his.
  4. The Obama/Holder “Operation Gunwalker: Fast & Furious” was and is directly attributable to Dictator-in-Chief Obama.  Since shortly after the C-span2 video was published in 2009, in my columns I have referred to Deputy Attorney General Ogden’s statement on said video that he was “directed” by “the president” to “take action” against the drug cartels.  This action began as “Operation Gunrunner” and its name was changed to the infamous one we know today.  However, the operation was never planned to fight against the drug cartels.  Instead, it was developed as a means to fight WITH the cartels against the US citizenry.  The operation was affected (and don’t forget “directed“) by Obama and his Attorney General Eric Holder to do one thing:  Remove legally-owned guns from US citizen under the Obama-manipulated premise that guns were being illegally sold to the drug cartels by Americans.

    Note:  The only problem with this was/is that the Seller was the Obama government and the Buyer was/is the Sinaloa drug cartel leadership.  The Obama syndicate openly chose the “winner” in the Mexican drug wars (which have spread to and are now being fought in the USA) to be the Sinaloa Drug Cartel over the Los Zetas cartel.  Therefore, thousands of guns have been supplied by Obama, Holder, the ATF etc. to the Sinaloa gang.  All of the murders and mayhem created by Obama and his syndicate have been enacted as a false excuse/reason to remove guns from US citizens so that they would be enslaved more easily or exterminated without being able to fight back against their oppressors.  This is what ALL totalitarian plots have affected in world history and this is the reason Stalin and Mao were able to murder tens of millions of humans.  This—and the lies believed when the truth was too ‘scary’ and painful for the German people to accept—was the reason Hitler was able to round up Jews, place them in train cattle cars and take them to their executions…with little more than whimpers.

  5. Obama announces plan to share military secrets with Russia.  This is another item that used to be called and prosecuted as Treason.  I wonder whatever happened to that concept
Today, too many still refuse to believe what’s happening in our country.  Instead, they choose to believe the lies that are being perpetrated by a now wholly antagonistic-to-the-people government—even though its actions belie its words.  Too many people still choose to believe the lofty although-proven-to-be-lies rhetoric that drips steadily and daily from the mouth of Dictator Obama and they ignore what he’s actually doing to destroy them.
The plain truth—no matter how uncomfortable or painful it may be—is that we have already lost our country to a band of thugs who have looted our treasury (that which all taxpayers used to own), burned our US Constitution and is in the process of decimating the rest of the USA at and on every level.  And the biggest problem is that some of us have allowed—even welcomed—it to happen.  The country that my ancestors fought and died to build has been annihilated.  The only question remaining is:  Are there real humans left who crave liberty, freedom and God enough who want to fight for and rebuild it?  Are there?
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”—2 Chronicles 7:14
Detroit Is Laying Off Cops to Rehire Them With Federal Money:Obama’s Illegal Executive Orders:  DREAM Act: Obama passes amnesty by executive order:C-span2 David Ogden Project Gun Runner Mexico March 24 2009Obama to Share Missile Defense Secrets With Russia?:Fast and Furious Favors: source:


Detroit Is Laying Off Cops to Rehire Them With Federal Money

The choice isn’t between guns and butter anymore. It’s between exploding entitlements and the basic services that justify government’s existence. From the liberal “Model City,” Detroit:
A high ranking source in the Detroit Police Department says about 100 police officers will be given layoff notices during meetings on Wednesday.
Fortunately for any law-abiding citizens who have not yet managed to escape this frozen jungle, the cops will be hired right back again with federal money.
Currently, the department receives universal hiring grants from the Department of Justice.
DPD plans to repurpose those grants to be used to pay officers, but the only way to eventually hire them back is to lay them off first.
The move will take the officers off the general payroll and help Detroit’s finances.
What happens when Obama et al. finish fundamentally transforming the whole country into Detroit? Maybe the UN will pick up the tab for basic services. Or maybe law and order will completely collapse, as in the prototypes for Hope & Change, Zimbabwe and Venezuela. If the Moonbat Messiah is reelected, it won’t take long to find out.

What liberalism has left of Detroit.

DETROIT (WXYZ) - In two weeks the Detroit Police Department will send layoff notices to 108 officers as a way of cutting the city's budget.
On Wednesday, Detroit Police Chief Ralph Godbee met with the police officers who are expected to be given layoff notices. The officers affected are some of the newest hired.
An actual layoff date has not been determined.
Sources say the move is a procedural matter and that they do not expect any officers will actually lose their jobs, but there are no guarantees.
At issue are two federal grants from the Department of Justice that are to be used for hiring new officers. Detroit Police officials are hoping to be able to use that money to retain the officers who are set to get the layoff notices.
DPD plans to repurpose those grants to be used to pay officers, but the only way to eventually hire them back is to lay them off first.
The officers are currently being paid out of the City of Detroit's General Fund budget and the move to use federal grant money to pay their salaries is expected to help the cash-strapped city.

Federal Reserve Directors: A Study of Corporate and Banking Influence.


Chart of who "owns" the Federal Reserve

Chart shows the link between the Federal Reserve Bank of New York,Standard Oil of Indiana,General Motors and Allied Chemical Corporation (Eugene Meyer family) and Equitable Life (J. P. Morgan).Liggett Group formerly known as Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company, the fourth largest tobacco company in the United States, General Electric (NBC), Twentieth Century Fox Corporation, Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., American Express Intl' Banking Corp., Staff Report, Committee on Banking, Currency and Housing, House of Representatives, 94th Congress, 2nd Session, August 1976.

Federal Reserve Directors: A Study of Corporate and Banking Influence

Published 1976
Chart 1 reveals the linear connection between the Rothschilds and the Bank of England, and the London banking houses which ultimately control the Federal Reserve Banks through their stockholdings of bank stock and their subsidiary firms in New York. The two principal Rothschild representatives in New York, J. P. Morgan Co., and Kuhn,Loeb & Co. were the firms which set up the Jekyll Island Conference at which the Federal Reserve Act was drafted, who directed the subsequent successful campaign to have the plan enacted into law by Congress, and who purchased the controlling amounts of stock in the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in 1914. These firms had their principal officers appointed to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and the Federal Advisory Council in 1914. In 1914 a few families (blood or business related) owning controlling stock in existing banks (such as in New York City) caused those banks to purchase controlling shares in the Federal Reserve regional banks. Examination of the charts and text in the House Banking Committee Staff Report of August, 1976 and the current stockholders list of the 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks show this same family control.

Federal Reserve Directors: A Study of Corporate and Banking Influence

- Published 1983
The J. Henry Schroder Banking Company chart encompasses the entire history of the twentieth century, embracing as it does the program (Belgium Relief Commission) which provisioned Germany from 1915-1918 and dissuaded Germany from seeking peace in 1916; financing Hitler in 1933 so as to make a Second World War possible; backing the Presidential campaign of Herbert Hoover ; and even at the present time, having two of its major executives of its subsidiary firm, Bechtel Corporation serving as Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State in the Reagan Administration.
The head of the Bank of England since 1973, Sir Gordon Richardson, Governor of the Bank of England (controlled by the House of Rothschild) was chairman of J. Henry Schroder Wagg and Company of London from 1963-72, and director of J. Henry Schroder,New York and Schroder Banking Corporation,New York,as well as Lloyd's Bank of London, and Rolls Royce. He maintains a residence on Sutton Place in New York City, and as head of "The London Connection," can be said to be the single most influential banker in the world.

Modern History Project 


October 21, 1945: "A broadcast over the Luxembourg radio said tonight that Baron Kurt von Schroeder, former banker who helped finance the rise of the Nazi party, had been recognized in an American prison camp and arrested."


November 1, 1945: "British Army Headquarters: Baron Kurt von Schroeder, 55 year old banker and friend of Heinrich Himmler is being held in Dusseldorf pending decision on his indictment as a war criminal, the Military Government official announcement said today."

February 29, 1948, "An immediate investigation was demanded yesterday by the Society for the Prevention of World War III as to why the German Nazi banker, Kurt von Schroeder, was not tried as a war criminal by an allied military tribunal. Noting that von Schroeder was sentenced last November to three months imprisonment and fined 1500 Reichsmarks by a German de-nazification court in Bielefeld, in the British Zone. C. Monteith Gilpin, secretary for the society said the question should be asked why von Schroeder was allowed to escape allied justice, and why our own officials have not demanded that von Schroeder be tried by an Allied military tribunal. 'Von Schroeder is as guilty as Hitler or Goering.'"

The J.H. Schroder Banking Company

J. Henry Schroder Banking Company is listed as Number 2 in capitalization in "Capital City" [62] on the list of the seventeen merchant bankers who make up the exclusive Accepting Houses Committee in London. Although it is almost unknown in the United States, it has played a large part in our history. Like the others on this list, it had first to be approved by the Bank of England. And, like the Warburg family, the von Schroders began their banking operations in Hamburg, Germany.
At the turn of the century, in 1900, Baron Bruno von Schroder established the London branch of the firm. He was soon joined by Frank Cyril Tiarks, in 1902. Tiarks married Emma Franziska of Hamburg, and was a director of the Bank of England from 1912 to 1945.
During World War I, J. Henry Schroder Banking Company played an important role behind the scenes. No historian has a reasonable explanation of how World War I started. Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated at Sarajevo by Gavril Princeps, Austria demanded an apology from Serbia, and Serbia sent the note of apology. Despite this, Austria declared war, and soon the other nations of Europe joined the fray.
Once the war had gotten started, it was found that it wasn't easy to keep it going. The principal problem was that Germany was desperately short of food and coal, and without Germany, the war could not go on. John Hamill in "The Strange Career of Mr. Hoover" [63] explains how the problem was solved. He quotes from Nordeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, March 4, 1915,
"Justice, however, demands that publicity should be given to the preeminent part taken by the German authorities in Belgium in the solution of this problem. The initiative came from them and it was only due to their continuous relations with the American Relief Committee that the provisioning question was solved."
Hamill points out "That is what the Belgian Relief Committee was organized for -- to keep Germany in food."
