Good day all. We have seen how little San Fran Nan Pelosi and UpChuck Schumer care about the Constitution of the United States or the separation of powers. Recently, news came out that the Capitol Police had opened offices in Florida and Kalifornistan, allegedly to “Handle Threats.” Now a report has come out that the Capitol Police are looking to hire prosecutors.
First, a little Civics lesson. Under the Constitution, law enforcement and Prosecution of criminal, as well as civil cases, is done under the administrative branch of the United States. In other words, this is handled by the President. There is oversight from Congress of course, and the Senate has the final say on the appointment of judges. Otherwise, any decisions to prosecute a case is strictly in the hands of the Administration. What this job listing appears to be saying is that the Congress is going to usurp this power from the Administrative Branch. Here are the details from Fox News:
A new listing on a federal government job board is raising constitutional questions, as Capitol Police are looking to hire their own prosecutors.
The listing for an attorney position, posted July 29 on USAJobs.gov, says in the description that the employee would “serve as a Special Assistant United States Attorney” in the Capitol Police’s District Offices. The salary is between $145,094 and $186,368 per year.
“This position is to represent the United States Government primarily prosecuting individuals and/or groups who have engaged in threats and/or acts of violence against Members of Congress, their staffs, United States Capitol Police employees, visitors to the Capitol complex, and facilities and properties within the Capitol Complex,” the listing says.
Notably, the agency listed for the prosecutor’s job is the Capitol Police, not the Department of Justice. Therein lies the problem, according to Mike Davis, founder of the Article 3 Project.
“It is constitutionally wrong to have prosecutors report to law enforcement. It should be the other way around,” Davis said.
There is another problem with this. The Capitol Police leadership board is made up of the House and Senate Sargent’s at Arms, among others and they report to Pelolsi and Schumer.
“This is clearly unconstitutional to have federal prosecutors working for Speaker Pelosi and Chuck Schumer in Congress,” Davis said, since prosecution falls under the Executive Branch, not Congress. He also noted how special prosecutors often have a tremendous amount of autonomy.
“They’re going to be able to do whatever the hell they want,” Davis said.
They already are doing whatever they want. Pelosi’s recent trip to Taiwan is a case in point. She was making foreign policy and that is the purview of the President of the United States and the State Department. To have the ability to prosecute people for whatever reasons they want flies in the face of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
To that end, Davis claimed that these attorneys will essentially be “Pelosi and Schumer’s hand-picked federal prosecutors doing their bidding.” Such an arrangement, he said, where lawmakers have their own prosecutors, “leads to tyranny.”
Considering the utter contempt that Pelosi and Schumer have for the Constitution and the Rule of Law, not to mention the moron in the white house, I wouldn’t be at all surprised that they would order their prosecutors to arrest and try President Trump for being President Trump. Now the question is, what genius came up with this in the first place and who was involved in this?
The whole situation led Davis to raise the question of how this came about in the first place.
“Who signed off on this?” he asked, questioning whether Attorney General Merrick Garland himself approved it.
No honest Attorney General would ever sign off on this. Of course. We’ve seen just how honest Garland actually is. He’s weaponized the Department of Justice in ways that make Eric Holder drool with envy.
A Capitol Police spokesperson told the Daily Wire that the idea did not come from any member of Congress, but Davis is skeptical. He said it is “not believable that Speaker Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Schumer did not have their hands in this,” even if it was through their respective sergeants-at-arms.
Apparently, the job postings were only open for a few weeks, from July 29th to August 19th. That would seem to indicate that the postings were just a proforma exercise and that they already know who they’re going to hire. The listing also says that the prosecutors will be reporting to the Capitol Police Deputy and General counsel, but will also be supervised by the U.S. Attorney’s office.
That dual reporting system, Davis predicted, is not going to be how things operate on the ground. He believes that ultimately the prosecutors will be controlled by the Capitol Police — and as a result, the congressional leaders who control them. Davis said the stated dual reporting is merely an attempt to work around the legal problems that he is certain will present themselves.
“This is going to put every prosecution by this unconstitutional army of legislative prosecutors in constitutional jeopardy in the federal courts,” he warned.
Without a doubt, federal judges, with the probable exception of the Obama and Biden Judges, are going to look at any case brought by these prosecutors and probably toss them. That’s the best case scenario. The worst case is people being picked up for not bowing down to their betters and railroaded into prison and garbage charges.
We already have an issue with people worrying about real crime, and with police officers who, frankly, should not have a badge. If Capitol police start arresting people in their homes, there is a better than even chance that there will be armed resistance. Of course, it’s doubtful that the Democrats in general or Pelosi and Schumer in particular are even aware of these potential issues. They are to busy discussing their next insider trading deals to notice what the serfs and peons are doing, and they don’t care. This thing needs to be slapped down, fast and hard before things spiral out of control.
