Trump is doing anything to keep everyone from talking about Epstein.
It's working fuck this news.
Other way around. They're using Epstein to distract everyone from everything they're doing.
For all you youngn’s, even if parts of the US constitution is removed from the random government entity’s website—it’s still available in many MANY forms. So like. Don’t think this means anything other than making things about as hard to access as they were like 15 years ago (which is to say not that hard).
Just cause a government website doesn’t have some information does not mean that laws have or have not changed.
This isn't about making it harder to access your rights. It's signalling what rights you've lost. Who can advocate for your freedoms when the highest courts follow this new doctrine?
Please explain any reason why the parts that the regime in the US specifically detests and have stated multiple times are not true would be removed due to a "data issue".
Please explain how one can request a court apperance after being dissapeared by a paramilitary group with alegence to the regime that's better funded than the Russian millitary, when the library of Congress does not have a section on due process.
Please explain when the president declares that the country is being invaded and anyone he deems subversive is now labeled a terrorist enemy of the state, how one can request their rights when the parts of the Constitution no longer say that only Congress has the power to say the country is being invaded?
This is not just some random government site. This is the library of Congress. This is the first result of the word "Constitution" on every major internet search engine.
This is not a slippery slope, this is a drop into a camouflaged pitfall onto sharpened stakes covered in shit.
This was a test to see if we would notice, if we would care or be indifferent, if we would speak up.
I doubt there will be a formal explanation or investigation that will explain any of this to any degree out side of "opps, it was just a technical error" as if it could be an honest mistake to delete specific parts of a document which never has anything ever removed from it, only ever amended.
I don’t disagree.
those people will always call everyone alarmists and doomsayers, until they can't because the last of their freedom laws have been quietly removed. The Nazi party in Germany didn't start roaring and revolting, it started as a fed up minority that kept screaming so loud until everyone believed they were the majority. Stand up, fight for your and your neighbours freedoms and dont give those rightwing populists even an inch
This doesn't appear to be true. The website still shows the full constitution. It's more likely someone has meddled with the archive.
If this wasn't true, then why did the library of Congress have a banner on its site stating
The Constitution Annotated website is currently experiencing data issues. We are working to resolve this issue and regret the inconvenience.
I'm not sure how you think someone "meddled" with the internet archive or what your source is but the smallest bit of research will bring you to reputable news outlets saying this happened.

I think you are missing the part where the library of Congress simply added the sections back when people noticed it was gone.
What the hell is a "data issue"
They had an issue with the data. They didn't like it.
The internet is frustrating.
I encourage you to read the comment right above yours; the website really altered the constitution.
It appears someone made a mistake and it's now remedied. However the speed with which it gets spun into full-blown constitutional crisis is what's frustrating, when a much simpler explanation fits.
There are enough travesties actually happening with this administration, we don't need to spin up fake ones.
From George Orwell's Animal Farm:
"My sight is failing," [Clover] said finally. "Even when I was young I could not have read what was written there. But it appears to me that that wall looks different. Are the Seven Commandments the same as they used to be, Benjamin?"
For once Benjamin consented to break his rule, and he read out to her what was written on the wall. There was nothing there now except a single Commandment. It ran:
ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS
Damn that hits so close to home now.
wow almost as if the very obvious story about authoritarianism accurately described authoritarianism. who could have known?
So where are the brave gun owning defenders of freedom and liberty I keep hearing so much about?
most of those nutjobs believe in the segragating ideology of the trump regime, they WANT to see others be put down for "exploiting" them and their wallets
Well if this isn't a reason to use your second amendment what the fuck is

Sorry Americans, it's getting really hard to be sympathetic towards those of you who claim to be opposed to this shit show.
Your inaction is enabling this behaviour.
People are being rounded up and sent to concentration camps. It's real easy to play armchair game theorist here, but in order to properly fight back people need safe places to retreat to who will defend you from being kidnapped or outright executed.
There's plenty of people rebelling btw.

Remember folks. Fascism has never, ever been put down using words.
Arm yourselves. Help others arm themselves. Train with them and form networks.
In Francoist Spain the dictatorship collapsed with the death of Franco and while a violent few years ensued, the Spanish Transition to Democracy was (comparatively) peaceful.
Political strength and popular support were far more important than strength in violence.
Dont forget to buy lots of ammo. Guns dont do much without ammo.
If you've got a gun you've always got at least one shot in it (throwing the gun at the target)!
Especially if it's a Hi&Point. The people's firearm.

Somebody needs to do it. The entire executive branch.
America doesn't just have a constitution. It is created by the Constitution. They are deleting America and patriots are cheering it on.
It would have been nice if we had all grown up pledging allegiance to the Constitution instead of to the fucking flag. I mean, soldiers and politicians all have to swear an oath to the Constitution - why do we consider a piece of fabric (that hasn't even stayed the same throughout the history of our country) so much more important?
A while back I made a collection of all the oaths taken by federal officials, employees, military etc. Each and every one tells them that the Constitution is their guide and it is their duty to protect/defend/support it.
Here they are:
These are each of the oaths that different government servants are required to take when assuming office. Each one requires the person to either support and defend the Constitution or to follow Constitution.
When you see a Congress member surrender their responsibilities to the president or the president say he isn't going to honor a court order you are seeing them violate their oath. That is how nations fail. When the people that are charged with creating or enforcing the laws don't do so then laws don't exist or are selectively enforced as a weapon instead of a tool of protecting the rights of others.
Enlisted: "I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
Officers: "I, _____ (SSAN), having been appointed an officer in the _____ (Military Branch) of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of _____ do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; So help me God."
President: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Congress: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
Judges: “I, ___ ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as ___ under the Constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God.”
Civil servants: “I, ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
They're not deleting it to say it doesn't exist, they're deleting it to prevent people from looking up their rights.

Ironic, since the writ of Habeas corpus predates even the Magna Carta.
Habeas corpus goes back to around 1166, which for those keeping track, is only around 600 years before the founding of the USA…

They're making up the law as they need it. Trump is history. He's the ultimate loser. He's a convicted felon and an unregistered sex offender.
How long after all this is done will I be able to sit down and watch the documentary without PTSD flashbacks?
