Mission

Citizens for Truth, Inc.  is a 501(c)(3)  Public Charity with this IRS approved mission: “To protect and promote the public good: to educate Citizens with facts & truth to dispel lies & propaganda.”  

The Petition was denied in conference on 3/20/18, by the GOP partisans for Putin’s Puppet, without Amicus support from gutless prominent lawyers and support from the Fourth Estate.  Citizens did not raise money from the public, there was no initial need, and now is in a state of moratorium.

We hope to re-submit this petition with greatly strengthened facts regarding the now Self-evident treason of Trump and his complicit GOP congressional cabal, and the recent indictments of the 12 Russians responsible  Putin’s Cyber war hacking invasion which was an attack on our free and fair elections and called “an act of war” by all 17 government agencies responsible for National Security.   Go to the link a few paragraphs down to the Supreme Court’s docket where you can read the entire petition to understand the gravity of what the Republicans on the Court did not do which was their clear responsibility to have done as the Framers’ last check standing to defend our Republic’s Democracy and protect the public good.

Petition for Writ of Mandamus, Docket #17-857: PREFACE:

Petitioner’s believe Donald Trump was unlawfully elected President.  This Petition lays out facts and the Court’s Constitutional authority to resolve this matter of historically unprecedented magnitude.  The Petitioners sole intent is to protect the public good, and trust Justices of the United States Supreme Court to consider this Petition as American patriots who will not be bound by partisan politics.  Our survival as a Republic depends on Americans having the courage and wisdom to consider these questions.”  The Petition was submitted to the Court on 11/20/17.

DOCKET #17-857, DOCKETED ON 12/15!  PASSED THE ORIGINAL JURISDICTION HURDLE: TO READ IT:  In Re Larry Shane, et al., Petitioners.

This is a nationwide U.S. Constitutional case of first impression. Only  the United States Supreme Court has nationwide jurisdiction to determine the propriety of last year’s Electoral College presidential vote. The use of the writ of mandamus by that Court to protect the judicial process, including the power of, and to prosecute, is necessary to keep the current U.S. Attorney General and the U.S. President from interfering with, or terminating, the investigation and thereby obstructing justice. 

Time is of the essence; one year has already elapsed.  Only the Supreme Court’s taking charge of, and accelerating the process , can bring about a result which affects the terms of those persons who taken have office on the basis of the last Electoral College vote.

 

Empowering the Electoral College, establishing its procedures and conducting a re-vote by that body are all time consuming. Only the Supreme Court can expedite the  creation of new nationwide process within the Electoral College process to bring about a meaningful remedy.

“The role of government is to protect the public good.”  [Thomas Jefferson]

Citizens is a group of older, experienced critically thinking courageous, men and women who are Partisans for America committed to  MAKE AMERICA A DEMOCRACY AGAIN.   

Time is of the essence, we must act immediately to resolve the result of  the Russian Cyber-war invasion which subverted our right to Free and Fair elections, and led to the  occupation of our government by complicit treasonous collaborators.  Resistance is not enough – support for this Petition is not mutually exclusive to supporting the objectives to get out the vote in 2018.

The Court can vacate the Republican Presidential Ticket of 11/8/2016  based on the  authority of the Constitution and the Framers’ Federalist Papers to protect the public good from a President clearly under the influence of Vladimir Putin, a Russian Dictator  intent on creating havoc in our Democracy.  [See, legal basis page or go to Docket #17-857 to read the entire 5,600 word compelling brief]

The Petitioners are asking the Supreme Court to appoint Robert Mueller as the Court’s Special Master to investigate the Russian Cyber War Invasion, and the failure of the Electoral process.  The Petition asks the Court to remove the current investigation from the control of the man being investigated and from the one party partisan control of our government by treasonous complicit Republican collaborators,  to the non partisan realm of the Court.

Citizens for Truth is not about left v right, or port v. starboard, but about Patriotic Americans uniting to save our Democracy from Putin’s Puppet in Chief.  The  dangerous direction of boat America is self-evident – with  the unhinged  pathological liar at the helm and his complicit – treasonous sociopathic crew, which includes Congressional Republicans and their leaders.

Sociopaths do not care about victims.

Richard Painter, President George W. Bush’s “Ethics Czar” (the White House attorney)  has objectively, courageously and vehemently stated:  “there is only one word for this, TREASON.”

Excerpt from Petition:  James Clapper described Cyber Warfare as follows: 

Cyber Warfare is a 21st Century form of invasion: hacking, propagandizing, stealing campaign plans and voting rolls, to serve Russia’s interest in disrupting Democracies and controlling the affairs of the United States; …”   ‘Cyber Threat Actors: Russia. Russia is a full-scope cyber actor that poses a major threat to U.S. Government, military, diplomatic, commercial, and critical infrastructure and key resource networks because of its highly advanced offensive cyber program and sophisticated tactics, techniques, and procedures’…. etc.”  [See:  “Joint Statement for the Record to the Armed Services Committee, Foreign Cyber Threats to the United States”; James R. Clapper, Director of National Intelligence … unclassified”] https://www.armed-services.senate.gov/download/17-01_01-05-17

It is manifestly apparent the President of the United States has been financially compromised by Vladimir Putin, and should not have been confirmed by the Electors. The Electors in doing so violated the Constitution, and the Framers’ intent clearly expressed by Alexander Hamilton.

Nothing was to be more desired than that every practicable obstacle should be opposed to cabal, intrigue, and corruption. These most deadly adversaries of republican government might naturally have been expected to make their approaches from more than one quarter, but chiefly in the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils. How could they better gratify this than by raising a creature of their own to the chief magistry of the Union?” The Federalist, No. 68 (Alexander Hamilton);

Further, on the face of so much empirical evidence, clearly the people around the dangerously compromised Trump are sociopaths complicit in collaborating with a foreign hostile nation to have sabotaged Americans out of a “free and fair” election on 11/8.

FREE & FAIR ELECTIONS ARE THE LIFE BLOOD OF DEMOCRACY & INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM.

We ask our fellow Citizens to unite as Americans in support of this Petition for a Writ of Mandamus which asks the Supreme Court to protect the current investigation and appoint Robert Mueller, as a  Special Master to investigate the Russian Cyber War Invasion; the Constitutional failure of the Electoral College Process and the Electors; and  the fraudulent result caused by the apparent treasonous activities of complicit Russian compromised collaborators.

Why Nullify

On August 10, 2017 the President of the United States said the unthinkable:   Trump Praises Putin Instead of Critiquing Cuts to U.S. Embassy Staff …  https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/10/world/europe/putin-trump-embassy-russia.html   “Trump Thanks Russia for Expelling American Diplomats. President Trump said the move would help the United States save money on payroll.”

On Saturday, 11/11, 2017,  Trump said that he believed President Vladimir V. Putin was sincere in his denials of interference in the 2016 presidential elections, calling questions about Moscow’s meddling a politically motivated “hit job” that was hindering cooperation with Russia on life-or-death issues.   …  “He said he didn’t meddle — I asked him again,” Mr. Trump told reporters traveling with him aboard Air Force One as he flew to Hanoi for more meetings. “You can only ask so many times. I just asked him again. He said he absolutely did not meddle in our election. He did not do what they are saying he did.”  https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/11/world/asia/trump-putin-election.html

Is Trump not in Putin’s pocket?  Which is exactly what Hamilton feared in Federalist No. 68  – as the President of the United States, his Vice President, his cabinet, the people who were instrumental in his election campaign, and the Republican leaders of Congress have  allowed the Dictator of Russia “to gain an improper ascendant in our councils.”

The Supreme Court is the last of the Framer’s checks standing to protect Americans from being on a path to Fascism.  The Court is the only check left not in the control of a President who is a dangerous pathological liar, who has been severely compromised by Vladimir Putin.

America is now at the edge of an authoritarian abyss with no other lifeline but the Supreme Court.   This is moment of truth of historically unprecedented magnitude.

We need the support of all patriotic Americans who care profoundly about the present and future of our Republic’s Democracy that is supposed to be for “we the people,” and for “free and fair elections” to preserve individual freedom,  We need American citizens to stand up for the American Dream, which is not about what is best for sociopathically greedy billionaires, about what is fair to the 98%.

Citizens welcomes support from anyone who wants to contribute expertise, time and or money.  We invite all Americans to participate.  This is not our cause, but the cause of all Americans who do not want to live in an authoritarian Fascist state.

Our Democracy’s future is on the line.  We the people need the Free Press, the Fourth Estate to step up to the line and get the word out that it is possible to vacate the Republican Presidential Ticket of 11/8. (see legal basis)   The Court is susceptible to a ground swell of public opinion.

This emergency Petition for a Writ of Mandamus has passed the hurdle of original jurisdiction and deserves your support to objectively create informed public opinion — Americans need to be informed that there is a legal path now to stop Trump & Pence and protect Robert Mueller’s investigation.  Learn how:

Time is of the essence.  America  cannot repeat the mistake of Germany, sitting on the  sidelines chronicling bizarre stuff, and watch an American President thank Putin for ejecting 750 Americans from the Russian Embassy, threaten to destroy Korea to the entire assembly of the UN, and flip paper towels.  We cannot merely comment on the worst tax bill of all time, and be respectful in the face of pathological GOP liars, intent on dismantling the  public good.

The world is watching treasonous, irrational, reckless, volitile dangerous erratic behavior, while America rolls over for Putin.  The world knows Trump and Republicans specialize in OPPOSITE SPEAK.  The Press must stop parsing distractions

AMERICAN’S NEED THE MEDIA’S HELP TO SAVE AMERICA – by objectively creating INFORMED PUBLIC OPINION.  THE SUPREME COURT IS SENSATIVE TO PUBLIC OPINION.   A GROUNDSWELL OF PUBLIC OPINION TO SUPPORT VACATING THE UNLAWFUL ELECTORS VOTE FOR THE PRESIDENT-ELECT GOP TICKET OF 11/8 IS OF VITAL IMPORTANCE TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC GOOD.  The Court has the Constitutional authority to revoke what Putin intended for America. 

A groundswell of public opinion was behind gay marriage.

We need the “FREE PRESS” to fulfill its role as protected by the framers, and inform Americans there is a better path (than the myth of impeachment) to stop the treasonous carnage of the common good led by a Putin compromised, and globally dangerous President, and the GOP complicit compromised leaders who are not protecting the public good, but, in fact, intent on shredding it.

  11/8/2016:  WAS AMERICA’S DAY OF INFAMY:   THERE IS NO REASON TO BE BOUND BY EXCUSES:

This Petition for a Writ of Mandamus asks the Court to first appoint Robert Mueller as the Court’s Special Master to investigate the same matters he and his team are currently investigating as well as investigate the failure of the electoral process.  A Special Master under the aegis of the Supreme Court, has the full power and authority of the Court to empower the investigation, immediately removes the investigation currently underway in the partisan political arena controlled by the Republican party,  subject to the President’s authority to fire Mueller, to the nonpartisan realm and control of the United States Supreme Court where Madison assumed the impartiality of Justices would protect the Republic if the Court was the  last check standing.

Time is of the essence, with a twitter warrior President who could blow us all away, along with No. Korea,  a State Department in disarray led by Putin’s pick.  It is self-evident this President and the Congressional Republican leaders have created the most unprecedented dangerous moment of truth in our history.

What if citizens continue to go along like they did in Germany?  Is resistance enough?

Richard Painter, President Bush’s White House Attorney (“Integrity Czar),” has said: the only word for what is going on is “TREASON.”

Americans must be informed on the plausibility of Nullification   vs.  the implausibility of impeachment.  America needs a groundswell of favorable public opinion in support of SCOTUS DOCKET #17-857, or remain in passive resistance like Germany did until it was too late.

Can American’s roll over for the  Russian Cyber-war invasion, which was an attack on our right to a Free and Fair election?  Roll over for a Russian Cyberwar invasion considered an act of war by our National Security Agencies.

Let’s face it Congressional Republicans and their billionaire supporters DO NOT CARE ABOUT AMERICAN TREASONOUS COLLABORATORS OR THE FACT OF PUTIN’S PUPPET IN CHIEF.

We are the globe’s role model for Free and Fair Elections; America monitors foreign elections when Democracy and individual freedom is on the line.   Passive resistance is not a viable defense against treasonous collaborators and their Russian Oligarch buddies.

FREE & FAIR ELECTIONS ARE THE LIFEBLOOD OF DEMOCRACY AND INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM.  

America needs the best & the brightest, and most responsible courageous members of the Fourth Estate, still standing, to get involved in getting the word out that the best way to Save America is Nullification.

Impeachment depends on a 2/3 vote in the Senate to convict. Is it logical to think McConnell or Ryan, empirically vicious sociopathic lying leopards – are going to change their spots?  Leopards intent on preaching the job creator lie as “tax reform.”  The job creator lie tax reform lie which real billionaires with integrity like Buffet and Bloomberg know are lies, and bad for America, which of course Alfred Stieglitz and Krugman understand.

AND NOW THE TAX ACT FOR THE EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT OF SWAMP DWELLERS IS A FOREGONE CONCLUSION.  REFORM MEANS TO IMPROVE… so do GOP greedy sociopathic billionaires really need improved tax liabilities?

It’s ok to be successful in America, but we need to stop the grifters and money launderers in cahoots with Russia.

There are no precedents for our Democracy to have experienced a Cyber-war Invasion, which was an attack to corrupt and subvert America’s Presidential Election and Congressional elections.  There are no precedents, there is no way the Framers could have envisioned technological warfare in the 21st Century in the 18th Century when they wrote the Constitution.  But the framers did provide a visionary Constitution and  the  Framers’ intent in the Federalist Papers to protect our Democracy from exactly what has happened. (see legal basis)

WE NEED TO RETHINK THE PRESENT IN ITS OWN TERMS.   On September 17, 1787, 230 years ago, when the Framers signed the Constitution, there were no planes, no TVs, no phones or devices, no nukes, no civil rights laws and no cyber warfare.  Leaching was a primary medical treatment.

WE CAN NOT BE BOUND BY searching for 18th or 19th or even 20th precedents to deal with the Russian saboteurs intent on causing disruption and unrest within our Democracy, and the unprecedented complicit treasonous activities and behavior that subverted the result of 11/8.  

Nullification is about a President who asked Putin in public to hack away, to invade our country in a Cyber-war attack.  It is about a President who thanked Putin for kicking out 750 Americans from the U.S. Russian Embassy.  It is about threatening to destroy No. Korea in front of the entire membership of the UN.  A President who threatened a paranoid  nut job dictator, who immediately responded this constitutes a “declaration of War, and I am going to shoot down American planes,” with impunity?  And intensified testing nuclear bombs and ICBs.
