    “The Supreme Court is as central to a democratic government as the rigid skeleton structure and framework is to the human body; thus, should the Court become diseased with greed, biased partisanship, compromised integrity, blinded jurisprudence, and immorality, it no longer can act as the final arbiter of law and guardian of the U.S. Constitution.” John Johnson II  02/25/26

    By John Johnson II: A Soul Anthem

        There is a line, Not drawn in sand, and  Not whispered in fear.  But it’s  written in the U.S. Constitution Article I, Section 8, that expressly states, “The power to tax and set tariffs  is vested with Congress, not the executive branch.” SAY IT LOUD. IT’S IN THE CONSTITUTION!

    And when that line is crossed, somebody must answer. The President imposed sweeping tariffs without Congress approval — seizing power to regulate commerce snatching Article I given to the legislature. SAY IT LOUD! The President has crossed the line.

    He treated emergency authority like a blank check, stretching executive power beyond constitutional limits. He publicly attacked members of the judiciary when rulings rebuked him, undermining the independence of a co-equal branch. He claimed protection so broad it resembled political invincibility — invoking “absolute immunity” for official acts,  while elevating the office too dodge accountability. He blurred the separation of powers, attempting to dominate legislation rather than constitutional processes. There have been multiple warnings and  violations. Alarms ring across a republic that was built to resist Kings. SAY IT LOUD! The president has crossed the line.

    Now here’s the irony. The same Supreme Court that once expanded presidential immunity — insulating “official acts” from prosecution — found itself staring at the consequences of its own doctrine. In shielding executive authority, it risked strengthening executive defiance. Immunity began to look like impunity.

    And when tariffs were imposed without constitutional grounding, the Court remembered something fundamental: No King  lives here. No throne stands here. No one stands above the Constitution. He crossed the line and the ruling was clear. The Constitution remains alive! SAY IT LOUD. IT’S IN THE CONSTITUTION!

    Now hear this. If Congress trembles, silence replaces courage, and only fear halts duty. We the People are not spectators, but agitators we are!

    We answered when the Union fractured in Civil War. We answered when tyranny marched in World War I. We answered when fascism rose in World War II. We answered when segregation mocked the Constitution during the Civil Rights Movement.

    We got it right then and we’ll get it right again. This is not about race, party, or personality. White families are used. Black families abused, immigrants misused andvoters are confused. Division is strategy. Fear is leverage and silence is permission. But when the line is crossed — the people will respond. SAY IT LOUD! The President has crossed the line.

    The President  crossed the line and the Supreme Court stood tall. He crossed the line and the Supreme Court stood long. He crossed the line and the Supreme Court stood strong. He crossed the line and they shut him down. It was made clear that no King in a suit and  no monarch is welcomed in America, not even a clown.

     This is a Soul Anthem! And it’s a loud, clear, and rhythmic message you cannot ignore. SAY IT LOUD! The President has crossed the line. Say it loud! The president has crossed the line. And it’s in the  U.S. Constitution!

    YOU ARE THE JUDGE!
