How Can One Accused of Treason Himself, Pardon Others Accused of the Same?

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.

About those pardons, let me put in print what almost everyone is secretly asking and nobody has yet answered . “How can one accused of treason himself, pardon others accused of the same?” Hunter Biden’s laptop documented 459 crimes many of them revealing treasonous crimes with foreign countries. Joe Biden as a senator, as vice president, and as a citizen (2016 to 2021), had classified documents in at least five places unlawful for him to have at all. Classified information was marketed to several countries including Russia and China our likely enemies, for profit. Father supplied it and was fully involved in Hunter’s business dealings which were on going throughout these many years. Selling state secrets is treason. We’ve published much on this subject over the years. Joe’s pardoning of Hunter helps Joe conceal his own same crimes.

Joe Biden as a senator, as vice president, and as a citizen (2016 to 2021), had classified documents in at least five places unlawful for him to have at all. Only the president while president, unless declassified, can have these documents in his possession. Classified information was marketed to several countries including Russia and China our likely enemies. Chair James Comer of the House Oversight Committee announced,“we can now confidently trace at least $10 million in total from foreign nationals” to the Biden’s.

Donald J. Trump won the 2020 presidential race. No primary documents have surfaced and no studies have shown since, that the Deep State did not cheat in that election. In fact, all documents from the 2021 Maricopa County Presidential Ballot Audit, to video “2000 Mules” to last October’s news break in Arizona that 218,000 illegal aliens in that state alone voted, showed the opposite to be true (Adrian Fontes, Sec. Of State, press Release Sept. 30, 2024, X22 Report Ep. 3464b, 1 Oct. 2024). Even Georgia’s Dekalb GOP v Raffensperger court case last Fall proved Dominion machines capable of being hooked to the Internet debunking this as not possible, and the likelihood that it changed hundreds of thousands of votes from Trump to Biden in that election. LibertyUnderFire.org has published many columns documenting extreme abnormalities in this election and had we found otherwise we would have published that also.

Even the presidential election of Nov. 5, 2024 “proved” cheating in 2020 very likely. Allegedly Biden got 81 million votes. Barack Obama’s highest number was 69 million, the highest in Democrat turnout previously, surpassing Kamala Harris’ recent 66 million, Hillary Clinton’s 65 million and Obamas’ 2nd term 65 million (X22 Report, Ep. 3494b, Nov. 7, 2024, 32:20). The difference between Obama’s 69 and Biden’s 81 was 12 million fake votes. Those 12 million plus fake Democrat votes installed many Democrat members of Congress as well as Biden. It is very likely, without them, the Republicans swept both houses of Congress in 2020. Technically all laws generated thereafter and all executive orders signed by the unelected president should be removed, including Biden appointed Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.

My point. If unelected, Biden had no appointing powers. Nor does he have any pardoning powers. This more so than ever if he is pardoning others as part of a crime he himself is the lead instigator of, such as would be the case on classified documents only he could get. Everything as much as practical, should be as if Biden never served. The appointments or pardons were never his to make thus should stand as null and void. Treason, Hunters or his, can’t be pardoned.

The 2020 Presidential election was rigged—a Coup d’état. Those involved successfully overthrew the U.S. government in a revolution beginning Nov, 3, 2020 and concluded Jan. 6 2021 with the disrupted, thus uncompleted, Electoral College vote. The Biden presidency was illegitimate. (“Let’s be Blunt, Past Treason Greatly Stalks the Election of 2024,”LibertyUnderFire.org, 101624). Thus followed four years of illegitimate rule. Biden was never elected president of the United States. If a successful Coup d’état. is not treason what is? The word cheating is not in the Constitution but treason is.

According to the United States Constitution, Article III, Section 3, “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.” 18 U.S. Code § 2381 defines Treason further as “betrayal of one’s own country by attempting to overthrow the government through waging war against the state or materially aiding its enemies.” Certainly creating a false vote followed by an insurrection organized and led by federal agents and blamed on mostly nonviolent people legitimately exercising their 1st Amendment right “of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances,” assembled to encourage an honest Electoral College vote fits this definition Every patriot in America knows he could have been arrested if there.

Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State under Barack Obama, knowingly used her unsecured home server for government business—allowing potential enemy countries access. After a subpoena for her server was issued 33,000 email messages were reportedly “BleachBit,” and some devices hammer hit to destroy messages, some reportedly classified. This proves she knew what she was doing was wrong, otherwise, why would she destroy the evidence? FBI Director James Comey called her “extremely careless.” She, like Biden, had problems believing that the law applied to her. The State Department said it found a total of 588 violations involving information then deemed to be classified, but could not assign fault in 497 cases. At the time Clinton was running for president against Trump.

The Code continues, “Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason.” In this case, the enemy is mostly from within known today as the Deep State and hundreds were arrested and incarcerated for constitutionally peaceably assembly.

Returning to the Constitution itself, “No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.” As we have already noted above, and in dozens of previously published columns, virtually everything testifies to the overt act of treason, the fraudulent vote, and the planned disruptions of the Electoral College vote to omit the required objection process when they reassembled. Stunned by the fedsurrection, they did not.

Others too may want pardons for their participation in the Coup d’état. Biden is weighing preemptive pardons for the January 6, 2021 Unselect Committee—especially Liz Chaney, and Adam Schiff. They are accused of destroying hundreds of documents that allegedly showed the Committee functioned to complete the Coup d’état by suppressing evidence that it was a fedsurrection and keeping the focus on Trump as THE INSURRECTIONIST to imprison him or at least keep him from running again. There are many others wanting pardons such as: Anthony Fauci, James Comey, John Brennon, James Clapper, Joe’s brother Jimmy and Sister in law and some who will need them perhaps even Barack Obama and the Clinton’s. Biden would like to pardon the entire Deep State. How far will justice reach, we will have to see?

So we ask again, “How can one accused of treason himself, pardon others accused of the same?” He can’t. Treason constitutionally can not be pardoned.

“If We Don’t Have Free Speech, Then We Just Don’t Have a Free Country”

By Harold Pease, Ph. D.

“Congress shall make no law …abridging the freedom of speech or of the press….” has been the law of the land since 1791 when the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution. The Biden / Harris Administration essentially removed it by denying it in the name of mis or dis information. President-Elect Trump promises to restore this “God given right” immediately upon taking office. Until then we assume continued censorship and disregard for the 1st Amendment.

Trump is the most censored president in American history. Instead, the Deep State’s echo chamber spewed only mis and dis (hate) information messages of him for nine years. No wonder free speech is his first policy-related announcement since his landslide victory, it had been denied him for so long. His rising twice to power against these odds are indeed modern miracles. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a lifelong Democrat, said of this speech, “This alone puts DJT in company with the greatest U.S. presidents since Lincoln.”

Why is freedom of speech so important? Donald Trump answers, “If we don’t have free speech, then we just don’t have a free country. It’s as simple as that. If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one, they’ll go down.” He announced a five step plan “to reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans” emphasizing, “reclaim is a very important word … because they’ve taken it away.”

What specifically provoked this action? “In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed that a sinister group of Deep State bureaucrat Silicon Valley tyrants, left wing activists and depraved corporate news media have been conspiring to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated to suppress final information on everything from elections to public health. The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately….” Freedom of speech must be in place to remove the Deep State from power.

President-Elect Trump will implement his five step plan to restore this “God given right” immediately upon taking office. “First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, business or person to censor, limit, categorize or impede the lawful speech of American citizens. I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as mis or dis information, and I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship directly or indirectly, whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ, no matter who they are.

“Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified. These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law and anti trust laws, the Hatch Act and a host of other potential criminal, civil, regulatory and constitutional offenses. To assist in these efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters, —and we have to do this right now —to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign and every Silicon Valley Tech giant ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship.”

Biden and Trudeau view free speech as a threat to democracy that needs to be stamped or driven out. But democracy has no guard rails to protect liberty. The Founders created a republic not a democracy that gives us God given rights. No wonder the Deep State seeks to destroy our Constitution—a free societies’ guard rails prohibiting free speech removal. The document clearly says, “Congress shall make no law …abridging the freedom of speech.

Trump continues with his third and forth actions. “Third, upon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk revising section 230 to get big online platforms out of censorship business. From now on, digital platforms should only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230 if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness and non discrimination. We should require these platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content such as child exploitation and promoting terrorism, while dramatically curtailing their power to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech.

“Fourth, we need to break up the entire toxic censorship industry that has arisen under the false guise of tackling so called miss and disinformation. The federal government should immediately stop funding all nonprofits and academic programs that support this authoritarian project. If any US universities [are] discovered to have engaged in censorship activity or election interferences in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal or blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars and federal student loan support for a period of five years, and maybe more. We should also enact new laws laying out clear criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats who partner with private entities to do an end run around the Constitution and deprive Americans of their First, Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights.”

We must stop Deep State’s easy access to U.S. user data. “Furthermore, to confront the problems of major platforms being infiltrated by legions of former Deep Staters and intelligence officials, there should be a seven year calling off period before any employee of the FBI, CIA, NSA, DNI, DHS or DOD is allowed to take a job at a company possessing vast quantities of U.S. user data.”

And finally, a digital Bill of Rights. “Fifth, the time is finally come for Congress to pass a digital Bill of Rights. This should include a right to digital due process. In other words, government officials should need a court order to take down online content, not send information requests, such as the FBI was sending to Twitter. Furthermore, when users of big online platforms have their content or accounts removed, throttled, shadow banned or otherwise restricted. No matter what name they use, they should have the right to be informed that it’s happening, the right to a specific explanation of the reason why, and the right to a timely appeal. In addition, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to opt out of content moderation and curation entirely, and receive an unmanipulated stream of information if they so choose. The fight for free speech is a matter of victory or death for America and for the survival of Western Civilization itself.”

Trump ends, “When I am President, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control will be ripped out of the system at large. There won’t be anything left. By restoring free speech, we’ll begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation. Thank you and God bless America.” This is Constitutional, clear, concise and powerful; undiluted freedom can return. Trump gave this speech Dec. 15 2022, but it was largely censored. By this date he had been banned by the following media outlets: Discord, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Snapchat, Tiktok, Twitch, Twitter and YouTube. He reposted it November 9, 2024; censorship largely remains.

A Thanksgiving Message, “Now Thank We All Our God”

By Harold Pease, Ph. D.



This is the season to be grateful and to acknowledge our many blessings, even in the midst of extreme difficult times for so many of our neighbors and friends. Even our own circumstances may have brought us beneath what we think we can endure. During such times it is sometimes hard to find things to be grateful for or to find the hand of God in anything. Finding someone whose life circumstances are much worse sometimes helps a little. One such was Martin Rinkart. He authored the beloved Christian hymnal “Now Thank We All Our God” which has given fellow Christians strength in their trials for almost 400 years.

In 1637 the Swedes and Germans were in the midst of The Thirty-Year War (Catholics vs. Protestants) and refugees from that encounter were flooding into Eilenburg, Saxony where Martin Rinkart was serving as Archdeacon of his native German town. A horrible plaque gripped the area leaving some 8,000 persons dead in a single year. Rinkart had to assist “at the beds of the sick and dying.” Although fortunately he maintained his own health during this time of death, he “had to read forty or fifty funeral services a day” including the services of two of his fellow clergymen. A fourth ran away, out of fear of getting sick, leaving him the lone church authority in this major crisis. He assisted in burying some 4,480 in all. In May of that year, his wife died. “By the end of the year, the refugees had to be buried in trenches without Services.

This horror was followed by a famine “so extreme that thirty or forty persons might be seen fighting in the streets for a dead cat or crow.” As the head of the church in his area “his door was surrounded by a crowd of poor starving wretches, who found it their only refuge.” He shared everything he had reserving “the barest rations for his own family.”

Next the Swedes returned demanding a tribute of $30,000 from the town. Such money was not available. After failing to entreat the invading general for mercy, Rinkart turned to those following him and, in the general’s presence, said “Come, my children, we can find no hearing, no mercy with men, let us take refuge with God.” He then “fell on his knees and prayed with such touching earnestness that the Swedish general relented, and lowered his demand at last to 2,000 florins.”

Apparently the words of his hymn were originally written as a grace to be said before meals but given his circumstances it became a song of strength in adversity. Listen to them. “Now thank we all our God with hearts and hands and voices, Who wondrous things hath done, In whom his earth rejoices; Who, from our mothers’ arms, Hath blessed us on our way With countless gifts of love, And still is ours today.” The first verse of this Lutheran hymnal is certainly a message of thanksgiving; the second, one of protection and guidance. “Oh, may our bounteous God Through all our life be near us, With ever joyful hearts and blessed peace to cheer us, And keep us in his love, And guide us day and night, And free us from all ills, Protect us by his might.”—Martin Rinkart, c. 1636

Amazingly Rinkart could find God and write praises to him in the midst of the most horrendous circumstances of war, famine, plague, and death around him. The tune came from noted hymn composer Johann Crüger, and its common harmonization derives from its use in an 1830 cantata by German composer Felix Mendelssohn. “Thanksgiving During a Plague: Martin Rinkart (1586–1649).” Rinkart was a deacon at Eisleben and archdeacon at Eilenburg, where he was born and also died. (Religious Affections Ministries, Nov. 25, 2020).

Perhaps his life and song can make us stronger as well. At the very least it should give us a few extra things for which to be thankful. None of us are fighting over a dead cat or crow to eat. Despite our obstacles, deep inside we know that God still has our best interests in mind. When we next sing this song we will probably do it with more gratitude reflecting, at least for a moment, on our great blessings, as he did, rather than our trials.

Trump Warned 8 Years Ago of “A Struggle for the Survival of our Nation”

By Harold Pease, Ph. D

Trump warned us October 16, 2016, of “A Struggle for the Survival of our Nation” and why he, you and I, had to be engaged or lose the Constitution and our freedom. Even were it not largely censored most then would not have believed it but do now. He just won his third election fighting to have the Establishment revealed so it could be then destroyed In 2020 the Deep State through election interference did take over America in a election Coup d’état. He told us this could happen and it did. What follows is part of his speech “Trump: The Establishment.”shared eight years ago.

“Trump the Establishment” is the address given by candidate Trump on October 16, 2016 where Trump identifies why he is running for president—to expose the Establishment (Deep State). This he has done successfully the last 8 years. We now see it clearly. As he takes office we are still in critical condition.

“Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American People.  The Washington establishment, and the financial and media corporations that fund it, exists for only one reason: to protect and enrich itself. The establishment has trillions of dollars at stake…. For those who control the levers of power in Washington, and for the global special interests they partner with— these people that don’t have your good in mind—our campaign represents an existential threat….

“This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization that will determine whether or not We The People reclaim control over our government. The political establishment that is trying everything to stop us, is the same group responsible for our disastrous trade deals, massive illegal immigration, and economic and foreign policies that have bled our country dry….

“It’s a global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth, and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political entities…. Just look at what this corrupt establishment has done to our cities like Detroit and Flint, Michigan – and rural towns in Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina and across our country. They have stripped these towns bare, and raided the wealth for themselves and taken away their jobs.

“The Clinton Machine is at the center of this power structure. We’ve seen this firsthand in the WikiLeaks documents in which Hillary Clinton meets in secret with international banks to plot the destruction of U.S. sovereignty in order to enrich these global financial powers…..

“Let’s be clear on one thing: the corporate media in our country is no longer involved in journalism. They are a political special interest, no different than any lobbyist or other financial entity with an agenda. …. For them, it is a war – and for them, nothing is out of bounds. This is a struggle for the survival of our nation ….

“The establishment [Deep State] and their media enablers wield control over this nation through means that are well known. Anyone who challenges their control is deemed a sexist, a racist, a xenophobe and morally deformed. They will attack you, they will slander you, they will seek to destroy your career and reputation. And they will lie, lie and lie even more….

“Our great civilization, here in America and across the civilized world, has come upon a moment of reckoning…. But the central base of world political power is here in America, and it is our corrupt political establishment that is the greatest power behind the efforts at radical globalization and the disenfranchisement of working people. Their financial resources are unlimited. Their political resources are unlimited. Their media resources are unlimited. And, most importantly, the depths of their immorality is unlimited.

“Our political establishment has no soul…. The only force strong enough to save this country is you. The only people brave enough to vote out this corrupt establishment is you, the American People. They control the Department of Justice…. [and] the Director of the FBI…. This is a conspiracy against you, the American people. This is our moment of reckoning as a society and as a civilization.” (View full address at (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHsZxJlxHYw )

The above are the words of Presidential Candidate Donald Trump, October 16, 2016—the only candidate willing to take on the century old establishment. If these words are unfamiliar with some readers, then and /or today, it is because their sources for information are Establishment controlled—thus they are controlled by the Deep State. They have been, and are now, on the wrong side in the struggle to retain our liberty. Trump continues:

“I didn’t need to do this. I built a great company, and I had a wonderful life. I could have enjoyed the benefits of years of successful business for myself and my family, instead of going through this absolute horror show of lies, deceptions and malicious attacks. I’m doing it because this country has given me so much, and I feel strongly it was my turn to give back.

“Some people warned me this campaign would be a journey to hell. But they are wrong, it will be a journey to heaven because we will help so many people.” He probably anticipated being hated by 90% of the media thus by most of the people, spied on, perhaps even infiltrated by their secret combination, but it is unlikely that he could have imagined the extent of their persecution: The Russia Hoax, two impeachments, four separate major court cases housing 91 indictments, and five assassination attempts (“Golfing Sniper, 5th Time Life of President Trump Threatened —Not Second!!!,” Aug. 9, 2024, LibertyUnderFire.org,) These were the major attacks. No political figure suffered more unjust persecution for this country—even perhaps all combined.

He continues, “In my former life, I was an insider as much as anybody else – and I know what’s like to be an insider. Now I am being punished for leaving their special club and revealing to you their great scam. Because I used to be part of the club, I’m the only one who can fix it. I’m doing this for the people….

Some view this wind beaten flag as representative of the condition of the Constitution and liberty in American in 2016 and even more so after Biden / Harris.

“We will remove from our politics the special interests who have betrayed our workers, our borders, our freedoms, and our sovereign rights as a nation. We will end the politics of profit, we will end the rule of special interests, we will put a stop to the raiding of our country – and the disenfranchisement of our people. Our Independence Day is at hand” (Ibid.). And it now can be.

In 2016, with Trump’s election, we won our first battle against the Deep State, the second was the 2024 landslide in his favor, even with their cheating system, but they are still in place and will be back in the midterms unless removed. Their secret combination must be permanently removed to have “justice for all” and the Constitution restored once again. But “mercy cannot rob justice.” There must be punishment for ALL who broke the law—long prison sentences and some executions. If not, it is just a matter of time before we lose freedom again in our lifetime. Treason cannot be tolerated in a free society. Are we up to it? If not we have surrendered liberty already?

Why Trump Won and Won Big! The Issue is Liberty!!!

By Harold Pease Ph. D.

In a truly fair election without electronic cheating, illegals voting, voter rolls cleaned up, ballot harvesting, totally uncensored information, media not weaponized and etc. Trump would have won by at least 70%, maybe 75% as we have indicated before. But cheating was off the charts the last two years, more especially the last month, with hundreds of examples, even so, he won with THEIR electronic voting system but not by these percentages. This makes his victory much more profound. No one in American history has experienced more election opposition.

By 1:30 A.M. EST on November 6, the nation knew that Trump had over 270 Electoral College votes making him president-elect and also the Senate and likely the House of Representatives as well. He had not just beaten Joe Biden, then Kamala Harris, but the Deep State as well. Before this he prevailed over the DOJ that wanted to put him in jail for 730 years on four frivolous indictments and the FBI that, many believe, is assisting those who want to kill him. No political figure in American history has experienced more election opposition. At the moment the Constitution is saved and we are free but for how long with the Deep State still in place?

November 5, was the most important election in our nation’s political history. American flags were everywhere so patriotism was strong and the people felt they needed to get back to freedom basics. The silent majority came forward. Donald Trump’s 900+ rallies were attended in numbers never seen before. Kamala Harris rallies had to have a concert with someone famous, or have a previous president, Bill Clinton or Barack Obama, with her to break a thousand attending; worse, or have rally goers paid to attend. As anticipated the people came out for Donald Trump.

Why this profound victory? Several reasons can be identified. The vast majority of Americans know now that Joe Biden did not win in 2020, Trump did. That Covid-19 was mostly used for mail-in-balloting, which is, and always has been, prone to cheating. That Hunter Biden’s laptop was real and held back from exposure by America’s intelligence community until after the 2020 presidential election. A fourth of Biden voter’s would have chosen Trump had they known this. That the laptop revealed 459 crimes most of which should have put the president’s son in jail for many years—but didn’t. That Biden was personally corrupt, had over 20 shell companies extracting millions from foreign countries, some potential enemies, with Hunter selling state secrets. Classified documents were in Joe’s possession as a U.S. Senator and Vice President in several different places that should have given him a lengthy prison sentence even before he ran for president in 2020,

Americans now know that the CIA was corrupted decades ago—at least since the Kennedy Assassination. That the FBI has turned rogue even leading the January 6 insurrection while dressed as MAGA. That it is the lead suspect for many in the assassination attempts on Trump both at Butler, Pennsylvania and Trump’s Florida Golf Club—it yet suppresses the telephone conversations on several of the phones of both would be assassins that likely would have exposed accomplices, even themselves, as aiding. That the DOJ was weaponized to go after parents at school board meetings, MAGA, and everyone else exposing Deep State corruption.

Most now believe that the Deep State is real. It has been around since the McKinley presidency preceding the Spanish American War and was in both major political parties thereafter. It was a movement of monopoly tycoons, principally John D. Rockefeller and JP Morgan, seeking first power over the nation, then world economic dominance. It came out of the shadows and organized publicly in 1921 as the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), anyone of major importance thereafter, in either major political party, was CFR connected. The Deep State maintained control over both major political parties through George W. Bush. Its two principle opponents during those years were John F. Kennedy and Barry Goldwater, both destroyed by the Deep State, Kennedy by assassination and Goldwater by election annihilation. The Tea Party movement rose in 2009 against both political parties and Trump, an outgrowth of that movement although not a part of it, opposed the Deep State entirely. MAGA people rejected their control. Today Deep State control is embedded with the Democrat Party and RINO faction of the Republican Party who both see extinction of themselves if Trump wins.

The presidential election of 2020 will always be considered the most corrupt in American history. The stain of a Coup d’état election will always remain. Initially actual fraud was viewed by millions in televised news clips and testimonies of hundreds of whistleblowers. Over the months large studies followed: The Arizona Forensic 2020 Election study, the movie documentary “2,000 Mules” and The Tiger Project all provided evidence of massive cheating easily enough to have reversed the election and showing that Biden DID NOT WIN! Since then all findings have confirmed cheating. There exists no evidence that election cheating did not occur. Ignoring, denying, undermining, censoring, or destroying existing evidence is not an argument that it did not exist. Every person (thousands) that filed more than his own ballot knows that fraud occurred and he is guilty of it. Over 1,000 poll workers,—under penalty of perjury thus prison if they lied,—signed affidavits of having witnessed election cheating. Cheating was also in 2024 and will be in every election going forward until those doing so are punished enough to deter the practice.

In this digital war MAGA are the patriots and the Dems and RINOS the globalists. Only the most ill-informed are unaware of this reality. As Democrats flee to MAGA for freedom from the Deep State, most notably Elon Musk, Robert F Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard, they are replaced by illegal immigrants who are immersed with gifting for their loyalty: healthcare, food stamps, social security, placement and housing in cities and promised citizenship. These are the invisible army Barack Obama promised should be created— as big as the armed forces. These are likely to rise with chaos never seen before in America if enough cheating fails and Trump wins.

LibertyUnderFire.org has published on all of these topics over many years—793 columns. Trump has slowly, but successfully, awakened the public to this awful condition. It had to be this way to prevent a very bloody civil war in 2020. Trump had to vacate the White House so that Biden and the Deep State could rule to be exposed. Everyone is at a different place on the exposure trail. Not everything we have written above is believed by all but enough is that in an election without corruption which November 5 was not, Trump would have won by at least 70%. This 9 years of awakening, with Trump the principle victim, has prevented a bloody civil war.

There is yet another reason for Trump’s victory—tyranny, that most believed eventually would have come to all had he not won! Those who visibly oppose are punished. The DOJ and FBI are Deep State assets now. This last week, the week before November 5 election, nearly four years after the J6 event “suspects are still being arrested, convicted and jailed. This week alone:[a] Father and son from New Jersey [were] arrested—West Virginia man arrested—Illinois man pleads guilty—Texas man found guilty, —2 men from Virginia found guilty—Colorado man sentenced to 3 years —California man sentenced to one year” (X22 Report, Ep. 3489b, Nov. 1, 2024, 34:10). This, after the Supreme Court ruling June 28, 2024, in Fischer v. United States, on Section 1512(c)(2), that overturned most J6 convictions (about 350 persons). This SCOTUS decision has been mostly ignored by the Biden / Harris Admin. as they have most other court decisions and the Constitution. The real issue as to why Trump won so big is liberty!

“Our Constitution is Hanging by a Thread,” Donald Trump

Harold Pease, Ph. D.

Many of us who have frequently published on the threats to the integrity of the Constitution as originally written, over the past several presidents and many years, are pleased to have President Donald Trump make defending it a part of his campaign by his recent public statement, “Our Constitution is Hanging by a Thread.” He did so Oct. 13 in the swing state of Arizona at Prescott Valley. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints are considered an important, even key, vote in Arizona as well as in Nevada. Trump’s comment spawned an LDS Fireside with others participating notably Glenn Beck, Senator Mike Lee with Trump in the call to protect the Constitution in our voting practices (LDS Fireside with Donald Trump, Glenn Beck, Mike Lee: Constitution Threadbare? Best Clips!). The fireside was not officially church sponsored.

Donald Trump: “The Constitution is hanging by a thread.” And, “The family is really the foundation of a prosperous and good society, and that’s what we want.” Senator Mike Lee: “If you assume that you can vote for Kamala Harris and not really seriously threaten religious liberty, you’re sadly mistaken.” And, “Many of our Church’s teachings and our core doctrines are just incompatible with the woke, radical progressive agenda.”

Trump’s protection of the Constitution has always been genuine. He has been the most constitutionally oriented president for many decades—an avid protector of the 2nd Amendment’s right to keep and bear arms, and the 1st Amendment’s freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly and “to petition the government for a redress of grievances” (as in Jan. 6). The 10th Amendment too, in its single sentence, “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,” allowed this country to return the whole issue of abortion back to the states where it should have always been since it was never a delegated power to the federal government. Trump / SCOTUS did this!! The Constitution has always been a priority to him.

The Constitution would have already been damaged beyond repair had Trump not been elected president in 2016. President Obama wanted Merrick Garland as the new SCOTUS justice. Mitch McConnell waited for the approaching 2016 election so that the election could choose instead. Hillary Clinton, as president, would have doomed the Supreme Court beyond recovery with a vast majority of anti-constitutionalists appointed for life. Trump saved the Constitution by appointing three constitutionally based justices giving “as written” justices the majority.

But it was Trump’s phrase “Our Constitution is Hanging by a Thread,” that brought long-term members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to standing attention. In 1843, 181 years ago, the then prophet of their new church, Joseph Smith, prophesied, “the time would come when the Constitution and government would hang by a brittle thread and would be ready to fall into other hands but this people the latter-day saints will step forth and save it” (James Burgers Journal, 1818-1904, Church Archives, Vol. I—found among loose sermons). Many wrote it down in their journals at the time with only minor variations.

For Trump, past president and likely to be again the most important head of state in the world, to blatantly use this phraseology to describe the present condition of the Constitution is for members jaw-dropping. No one familiar with the document can dispute it is on life support.

With respect to the government of the United States and the Constitution, this prophecy has been recited by virtually every president in LDS Church history. Outside Church belief that Jesus is the Christ, our personal Savior and Redeemer and the Book of Mormon is the second witness of Him as such to people on the American continent; this prophecy and expectation that it would be fulfilled is perhaps the most known.

The most profound and modern recitation of this prophecy was by church President Ezra Taft Benson shared Sept. 16, 1987, “I have faith the Constitution will be saved as prophesied by Joseph Smith. But it will not be saved in Washington. It will be saved by citizens of this nation who love and cherish freedom. It will be saved by … men and women who will subscribe to and abide the principles of the Constitution.” He concluded with his own prophecy, “I testify that the God of heaven raised up choice spirits to lay the foundation of this government, and he has sent other choice spirits to preserve it” (“Our Divine Constitution,” Sept. 16, 1987, BYU Devotional).

Why would members, on religious principle, be one of the most patriotic people in the country to the Constitution? Because they believe Christ told them to be. Smith received three revelations regarding it, the most prominent of which, “I established the Constitution of this land, by the hands of wise men whom I raised up unto this very purpose, and redeemed the land by the shedding of blood.” Simply, Christ helped America win the Revolutionary War and form the Constitution which is to bless “all flesh” and “forever” (D & C’s 98:4-10; 101:77-80; & 109:54).

Glenn Beck: “The constitution is hanging by a thread. You know who gets that? Some Democrats. Elon Musk gets that. Tulsi Gabbard gets that. RFK Jr, an icon of the Democratic Party, says this party is dangerous. ‘I have to stand with Donald Trump.’ They get that.” Beck asks, “What did you do when the freedom of not just your children and your grandchildren, but the children all over the world was at stake?” Do YOU get it?

Why should a non-member have confidence in the prophecies of a said to be prophet 181 years ago? Because members believe he is the same who on December 25, 1832, prophesied the American Civil War beginning in South Carolina some 28 1/2 years before it happened. Christ told him of the coming “rebellion of South Carolina, which will eventually terminate in the death and misery of many souls;….For Behold, the Southern States shall be divided against the Northern States and the Southern States will call on other nations, even the nation of Great Britain….” All of which happened, even the reaching out for help to Great Britain (D & C 87: 1 & 3 and 130:13).

Even the Deep State, many believe, was prophesied in the Book of Mormon in 1830, which members have called secret combinations for 194 years. Its index has over 60 references to how secret combinations destroyed two separate ancient civilizations, the Jaredites and the Nephites, for they are found in all nations and “seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people.” The prophet Moroni in the book warns today, “when ye shall see these things come among you that ye shall awake to a sense of your awful situation, because of this secret combination which shall be among you.”

The Deep State has and is destroying this country. LibertyUnderFire.org has published 791 columns on liberty, a large majority of them defending the Constitution and revealing the Deep State. Our Constitution IS hanging by a thread. Let us join Trump’s effort to bring together all faiths and people of this nation to save the Constitution from the Deep State. It cannot save itself.
