The riddle of Citizens United v Federal Election Commission... The missing February 22, 2010 Judgment...
Citizens United v Federal Election Commission presumably accorded corporations First Amendment rights. However, the First Amendment right of the people, for access to valid and effectual records of the Supreme Court of the United States, is denied.
Los Angeles, March 25 - Citizens United v Federal Election Commission (08-205) is no doubt one of the landmark decisions of the US Supreme Court. It was reported to have accorded corporations First Amendment rights. However, a valid and effectual copy of the February 22, 2010 Judgment in the case - a historic document - is yet to be discovered...
Review of online records of the US Supreme Court [1] shows:
- The journal for January 21, 2010, the date of the presumed decision, is missing the typical introductory remark, found in many (but not all) seatings of the court, regarding certification and entry of the orders and decisions.
- For example, on January 25, 2010, the immediate next seating of the Court, the introductory remark says:
"The Chief Justice said:
We have issued orders today, they have been duly entered and certified, and filed with the Clerk." [underline added -jz]
- The online docket of Citizens United v Federal Election Commission says:
"Feb 22 2010 JUDGMENT ISSUED." [underline added -jz]
"Issuing" of orders and judgments, which are neither certified, nor entered, is a common fraud in the lower courts... [2]
Additional efforts to discover the February 22, 2010 Judgment were unsuccessful:
- Request was forwarded to parties in the case, for a copy of the judgment, which was supposed to have been noticed and served. One party responded that the February 22, 2010 Judgment was neither served nor noticed, in apparent violation of Due Process rights. No party responded that a February 22, 2010 Judgment was either noticed or served.
- The US Department of Justice, in response to a Freedom of Information request for the February 22, 2010 Judgment, responded that "The Civil Division does not maintain records relating to that case."
- Previous attempts to discover valid and effectual judicial records in paper court files of the US Supreme Court uniformly failed. Access to the electronic records of the US Supreme Court was and is denied, in apparent violation of First Amendment rights. [3]
Reports of the United Nations Crime Prevention Center on "Strengthening Judicial Integrity" list missing court records as a cardinal sign of judicial corruption. [4,5]
With it, the vague and ambiguous records of Citizens United v Federal Election Commission (08-205) join the likewise vague and ambiguous records of Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad, 118 U.S. 394, where the Supreme Court was reported to have recognized corporations as persons for purposes of the Fourteenth Amendment.
In short: Citizens United v Federal Election Commission presumably accorded corporations First Amendment rights. However, the First Amendment right of the people, for access to valid and effectual records of the Supreme Court of the United States, is denied. As a result, at present, there is no way to ascertain, whether in fact a valid and effectual February 22, 2010 Judgment in Citizens United v Federal Election Commission was ever certified and entered.

The Bill of Rights has now stood for some 219 years, and has made Americans the envy of the world, in which the protected rights expressed in the Bill of Rights are only dreamed about by most of the world's people.
However, perhaps never before have the freedoms protected by the Bill of Rights been as threatened as they are today by an ever-expanding Congress, ever-expanding Executive Branch, and, perhaps the most pernicious of all, an ever-expanding Judicial Branch, in which only one class of citizens may serve, lawyers.
Those unelected, unaccountable, life-tenured lawyers sitting as federal judges, ruling in robes like feudal Lords or Old Testament High Priests, and sitting high above citizens on raised "benches" in marbled and palatial federal courts intended to awe and intimidate mere mortals, have made themselves the supreme power of the nation.

Wow, Marx's solutions are shite, but his critique of and predictions for the corporate capitolist state are truer by the day. For all you commie frothing tea baggers note most of those judges were appointed by Republicans. That's how they roll, they create or exagerate threats like commies or terrorists and use that cloak to steal your divine constitutional rights.
