Range of illegal govenrment activity Congress wants to unlawfully suppress discussion
Title should read: "government" not "govenrment"
Discovery
Exceptions
The Senate does not want the public to discuss the illegal Presidential programs. They have one goal: To prevent the public from discovering that the Senate has failed and is in rebellion.
This is a list of the powers which the Senate has abused and permitted to be abused.
The Senate has a problem.
It wants to silence discussion on illegal activity. We are not free if force to put up with abuse in silence.
At the same time it hopes to protect the government from oversight. we are not free if we cannot discuss what violates the law, or what is to be done.
The senate has no credibility. The Senate deserves to be whittled down to nothing.
We have the right to speak about illegal things; and craft solutions to protect this Constitution. The Senate has the power to debate, but they refuse to assert power -- rather they throw the issue of the Constitution up for debate. They do not have the power to debate the constitution -- the question of what the Constitution is or is not is the exclusive power of the Judicial branch; rather they may soon have that power revoked.
This note outlines the range of illegal activity that the Senate doesn't want you to know about.
The goal is simple: To show you how the Senate has crafted language that allowed violations of the law; but that they propose to pass rules barring discussion on that illegal conduct.
This is absurd.
The way forward is to recognize this list for what it is: Hypocrisy.
Rather, we the People may make rules -- not Congress -- which prohibits the freedom of speech. We have already made rules prohibiting the Senators to speak on issues during the Conviction phase.
We can broaden that rule to include other things: Issues of rebellion; efforts to silence; attempts to dissuade oversight; illegal efforts to stile fact finding; delays in providing evidence to the House to provide the basis for an impeachment.
The Senate can be held in contempt of the people. Especially when the senate has information that should be make public and brought to the attention of the House.
We can make new rules which compel the senate to provide evidence, and quickly resolve investigations within 90 days. The senate can be lawfully compelled under threat of jail time -- as is done during an impeachment -- that they do or not do something.
This Senate knows something. It knows the laws have been corrupted, and have been stretched to "permit" unlawful activity. It also knows that the Senate has unlawfully given a "green light" to the DoJ Attorney General to make exceptions and agreements which are contrary to our laws.
They have called this a "classified program" not to protect us, but to avoid the public knowing about the violations. Indeed, there should be no surprise why there are no complaints: The entire activity is classified.
That is not evidence. Rather, a crime does not require a victim. It is only the most stupid of people who believes that a victim is required. Rather, a crime is against one thing: The State.
Whether there is or is not a victim, or an identified voice is meaningless. All that is required is for there to have been [a] action that [b] violates a statute.
That is it. Whether there is or is not a victim doesn’t matter; and that the public may not be aware of something doesn't mean that there are no victims. Rather, the issues is simply whether the laws are or are not going to be enforced.
This Senate refuses to do its job. Rather, it wants to meddle in things, then do nothing with the facts.
A New Constitution shall make it a crime for evidence not to be forward for review; and it shall be a felony for Members of Congress in the Senate to do what they are doing: Making up non-sense to avoid having the rule of law enforced.
You have one choice: Between the rule law or rebellion. That the Senate may or may not choose to follow the law is irrelevant.
You can be compelled to be silent; do your job; or be found to have committed a felony.
We do not have to wait until an election. Rather, we can lawfully thrust this New Constitution down your throat, and bar you from speaking on any matter of Constitutionality. You have to assent to the Constitution; you do not have the power -- nor were you delegated any power -- to volatile the law, pass illegal bills, or create the impression in anyone’s mind that it was "OK with us" if you violate the statutes.
This Senate proposes to make rules barring the public from speaking about illegal activity.
The way forward is to impose that standard first on the senate with a New Constitution that makes it a felony for the Senate to discuss non-sense related to why the rule of law should or should not apply. That is a clear sing of rebellion against the Constitution.
Whether the Senate does or does not enforce this rule is irrelevant. The Senate may lawfully have that power revoked. The power to regulate the Senate may be transferred to a new Body that the Senate has no voice in influencing.
It doesn't matter whether the Senate does or does not have an interest; rather, We the People may lawfully make new rules and excite the population to lawfully assert the rule of law based on a simple desire: To do what you fail to do -- to protect, preserve, and defend this Constitution.
Congress shall pass no law abridging freedom of speech. Any law Congress passes abridging a discussion of illegal activity which violates the Constitution is not enforceable.
The way forward is to make it a felony to do what Congress proposes to do: Restrict the public from speaking on a matter of public interest.
In truth, the way forward is to bar the Senate from discussing issues related to impeachment or censure, and compel them to simply look at the evidence.
We can make the issue of censure one of procedure -- that only the Congress can vote on, not debate. If you want to deny the public the right to speak on corruption, then you shall have no right to speak on similar things.
Go ahead, pass a law that bans something that cannot be banned; We the People may pass a New Constitution that prohibits something we can well prohibit -- your right to speak, your right to comment, your right to do something.
You have no rights as Senators. You have Powers. We may lawfully revoke that power. If you deny rights to others -- we may lawfully deny you the power to enforce that non-0sense; and lawfully reciprocate by denying you the power to comment on something that you have been given the power to comment on.
Please, pass a law that denies the people the right to comment -- it is not enforceable. Rather, it will simply be the catalyst for We the People to pass a New Constitution that makes it a recognized right of the people to make new rules -- outside the Control of the Senate -- to enforce restrictions on what you can or cannot say.
We have already made rules that ban you from speaking during a conviction. We can do the same on other matters. we the People are the ones who make the rules. You have no power to make rules which violate our rights. Period.
Speclating on the Illegel Presidential Programs
Let's consider
Let’s consider the how the senate is cooperating with the illegal Presidential conduct.
First, let’s consider the language of the bill and forecast what the President could do and how the senate language shows they are cooperating with this illegal conduct.
In general we can look at the senate Intelligence bill as a New Constitution. This will show you how the current Executive goes beyond what is in the Senate Bill; and forecast what abuses are permissible within the current language.

Observations
The White House views America as a large Guantanamo. We judge Americans are regularly without warrant or reasonable basis kidnapped, detained, interrogated under duress without adequate access to legal counsel. We judge within recent days JTTF has briefed field units to take on a less confrontational approach, however they are still inclined to be abusive.
The abuse of power is not only illegal, it violates a specific procedural requirement before the court. When they ignore the court, this illegally takes the court out of the process that might otherwise detect and sanction the misconduct.
They first violate the law, then justify additional violations to avoid consequences. They are effectively engaging in illegal litigation outside the courtroom against those not suitably prepared to challenge the abuse of power. We judge the Federal Rules of evidence and procedure have been effectively thrown out the window.
We can generalize based on the FY06 Senate Intelligence Bill: To identify the likely abuses. The “permissible” misconduct matches what is publicly known. One can them combine what is possible from multiple categories to imagine what is going on.

Discovery
DoJ and NSA will have to explain to Congress why, despite the conversations with the contractors, Congress was not timely notified of the violations. We judge some of the most damaging information will be gleaned from the phone company message traffic to NSA and DoJ General Counsel in re concerns over FISA. This would show the time that the contractors were aware of the violations, and whether NSA and DoJ timely provided the information to the White House and Congress as required. We judge [a] the conversations over FISA violations and illegal activity are well documented prior to Sept 2001; and [b] the White House knows it not only has violated the law, but has made subsequent violations in failing to report to Congress the known illegal White House activity, orders, and guidance.
All information indicates the current FISA requirements remain at odds with the ongoing NSA activities, procedures, and technical capabilities. We judge the court has a reasonable basis to compel discovery. Had the programs been legal in the wake of 9-11, there would have been insufficient time to change the requirements, upgraded the software, and then expand the surveillance. Rather, these known requirements and capabilities – already in the software baseline -- were known to be at odds with statute.
We can create a composite picture together by working closely with those on the NSA modernization programs, and those who review the minimization procedures. The line of questions and responses will be well-rehearsed; however by separating NSA program team members, you’re more likely to find inconsistencies in their testimony.
We recommend Congress rather than use large witness rounds, separately subpoena [a] the field-level NSA program managers that work directly with the NSA contractors; [b] the government and contractor program team leaders; [c] deputy program managers; and [d] NSA program team members who are assigned to the NSA’s SETA contractors.
Once all testimony is received, you’ll want to review the responses relative to the data from the plant representative office; review the technical interchange meeting minutes; and the compare the results to the electronic message files stored in backup locations. These are data files which the contractors and government personnel regularly exchange in classified format, and are not the same as e-mail.
Notwithstanding the practice of investigators to “seize everything,” we judge there are files like these which are outside the scope of normal discovery. Bluntly, they’re not going to give them to you unless you know that they exist and are referenced elsewhere.
For reference information on these data files you’ll want to review the NSA program manager’s meeting minutes that discuss issues with funding and other communications issues related to changes in data deliveries, and last minute changes in program meeting agendas. [ Example: NSA Meeting Attendee list and [ More Generally ] ] Notice closely the source of the data files, and other references these non-traditional communication methods. Continue to probe for the source of the attached files and other information: Which systems were used to transmit/receive the data and whether other systems have copies. The issue isn’t simply the content of the report or data, but the means by which they have transmitted the data. That will lead you to the non-disclosed data.
We judge it is well known in the NSA contractor community that Lockheed Martin has program management meeting agendas. The key will be to explore the non-email-methods by which these meeting agendas are disseminated.
