Stewart Rhodes Explains Oath Keepers Mission

[moneymagnetelizabeth]

Thank you Stewart for all of your work. Patriots - join oath keepers and stand up for your Constitution or step aside!

[DVincentW]

I am signed in and commenting, but I get this when I try to give this a thumbs up:"You must be signed in to perform this operation." Interesting subversion of opinion.

[JohnWilliamCornett]

Why is there a Golden Fringed flag behind this guy? I think that there is a double message here. The American flag ought NOT be "encapsulated" by golden fringes! THAT is very confusing to people like me who know the real purpose of the golden fringes. It effectively means "ADMIRALTY JURISDICTION" and/or "MARTIAL LAW" It is NOT A SYMBOL OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC! "It signifies a military jurisdictional presence." WAKE UP PEOPLE. We are being conned in broad daylight! INVESTIGATE TRUTH! PEACE

[eagan1573]

@JohnWilliamCornett Stewart Rhodes also plays the part of Todd Keil, who IS the assitant secratary of infrstructure of the DEPT. of HOMELAND SECURITY!!!! Yes this is true!! He along with several others play double roles on TV. I know it sounds crazy, but it is true...I'd rather be crazy, but I'm not.

[1Makyo]

Thanks for your insight. Thanks for OathKeepers. I am ex military, active in street politics and subscribe to the Oath.

Stewart Rhodes is a true patriot. Stewart, thanks for the great job you're doing.

[MrSokitumi0007]

You know where america fk up with me at? when the schools said that i cant stop someone well rather a group of jocks beating up the nerd with the tape on his glasses and checkerd pants. So i whipped all 5 of them and i get thrown out of school but when i try to get a teacher to stop it. It only lasted minutes. Yrs later that same kid gettin beat up was goin to cop school so what do you think he`ll be like as an officer after being spit on and beat up all the time...

[shorty052477]

FINALLY! Someone says we are a Republic, and not a Democracy. I will stand behind this order forever!

[pureaggression]

STEWART RHODES FOR OFFICE!!!

[7F0X7]

2 sheeple thumbed down this video so far.

[fckudup]

FLAG WITH YELLOW BORDER!!! IN BCK GROUND. idn about you but my flag is red white and blue. thats it

[hazeywolf]

The Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act of 2006 (incorporated into the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations bill H.R.5013, S.2599 - signed by Bush on September 30, 2006 and made Public Law 109-295) prohibits the confiscation of legal firearms from citizens during states of emergency by any agent of the Federal Government or anyone receiving Federal funds (effectively, any Federal, state, or local governmental entity). Many States have enacted similar legislation. Get a copy.

[TheGrinninMan]

This guy and Ron Paul are my goddamn heroes. In my dreams, Ron Paul is President and Stewart Rhodes is the Secretary of Defense. TRUE AMERICANS. Damn, it feels good to say those words.

[BellaLunaJessalynn]

I commend all who are true Oath Keepers... curious though... whats up with his eyes?

[gkone97]

@BellaLunaJessalynn

maybe an i.e.d. dont know...

[romeoechomike369]

First they will try to discredit him by trying to find any skeletons in his closet. If that doesn't work, they will label him with terms like "right wing kook," or a member of the lunatic fringe. What this means is that those who oppose his position do NOT have any viable argument against what he is saying. Everything he is saying not only makes sense, but NEEDS TO BE SAID! He speaks for every freedom loving American who values the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Fight against fascism!

[bretsov]

The smallest minority is the individual, and it is precisely that minority that the constitution was created to protect.

[antibrainwash]

In all fairness: I would like to do an equally positive video on GOOD cops who can pass the test of an awakened member of We the People. I did not have to sign the contract. You signed it when you took an oath to it. It is your leash. If you stray from it it is My duty to put you back in the box. I am just honoring My responsibilities. What is it you honor other than your paycheck? I'm just asking questions. It's the truth that hurts... not Me.

[antibrainwash]

We the People vs. The POLICE STATE - Members of law enforcement need to decide which side they are on. There is help in the local community for those that wish to join us. Most cops are alone in their reverence for the constitution... which is why they are shunned if it's found out they participate in local constitutional groups. The matrix is strong but We the People can break it:

[ronaldneil]

OathKeeper DVDs are now available from OneDollarDVDProject (com) so, get a stack and wake friends and family. They are a dollar or two. We really have no excuse for not growing our numbers.

Remember, just putting out the message about OathKeepers plants reminder seeds to all who have taken the Oath. For every member in OathKeepers there are likely dozens of non-members who will keep their oath when given an illegal order.

The OathKeeper membership is the "tip of the iceberg."

Ron

[slewofdamascus]

Maybe OK should bring elected politicians into the fold? I'll bet RP would join. Thanks for the hard work. Can you please create a dedicated donation link for the OK "baby" trial? I'd like to donate directly to that effort.

[guitmarc54]

I agree with supporting the United States Constitution. Our ultimate leader, our light to liberty, Anyway isn't our flag's colors: Red, White, and Blue. What flag are you waving? Is that the flag of the empire of the united states? RED< WHITE< BLUE< AND GOLD? Save the GOLD FOR our renwewed MONETARY System. audit the FED! Ron Paul For The USA.

[IsraeliteMessenger]

I've seen no evidence of any Oath Keepers out there. The communist cops have always supported the criminal government. The communist cops are nothing but enforcement for an unconstitutional, criminal, satanic government. The police have ALREADY broken the constitution by enforcing unconstitutional laws. How many people have the communist cops sent to prison for violating unconstitutional laws or just their "code"....a lot. The cops are all guilty.

[IsraeliteMessenger]

@IsraeliteMessenger The cops don't want the NWO/JWO to lose. If the government falls into the hands of constitutioanal men they will all hang for treason....."just following orders" has already been tried before.  In for a pound, in for a penny?

[jsgdk]

@IsraeliteMessenger

This guys are working for a hope that it can be stopped before it goes that far.

[harleykman]

This speech almost brought tears to my eyes

.

It's good to know that when the merd' hits the fan, there are Oath Keeper cops who will protect my rights, rather than drag me off to jail. I hope every cop gets a chance to read your principles

.

[tctctctc4]

@harleykman

Tell the cops about OathKeepers Sometimes alll it takes is getting the word out. It will no doubt, be a relief to many that they have fellow comrades of the Constitution. Tell them about their States Constitution as well. Make sure your local Sheriff's Office know that fellow constituents are aware of the potential problems which could arise if the Federal Govt thinks they have a right to override the Sheriffs jurisdiction. We must all be educated about such matters.

[mjreynolds02]

@SurvivingSTL The guy is Army Airborne. Google before you speak is the new think before you speak.  You should try it.

[DominoChild]

I agree with what you say 100%. I feel like people have forgettten what are rights are, and because of that assume everything that comes out of the governments mouth is in our best interests

[lurchpop]

Most cops violate the "Declaration of Orders..." #2 (warrantless searches, demands for ID or "papers", vehicle searches) and #10 (free speech, assembly, petition) on a daily basis. I guarantee most members continue to violate these without being ordered to do so. This org needs to clean house first before it can go after the federal government. stop the police culture of tricking people into waiving their rights with lies and threats and you'd quickly get a flood of left wing support.

[Rachella38]

@Rachella38  *Communist* Regime

[rainger1ful]

@Rachella38 AMEN!!!!! You can trust fox news. Obama hates them because they tell it like it is. Glenn Beck has a show every night and he tells the people just how it is and what they should do. This is who got the Tea Partiers to march. Just watch him once and you will know what I'm saying.

[Rachella38]

@rainger1ful Hi, and Amen, that's exactly why Obama hates FOX news. They expose him for the liar that he is. I'm glad we have Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, all of those guys should be thankful for each other. They're Freedom Fighters over the airways! Thank God.

[rainger1ful]

Excellent!!! Yes, It is ALL Americans responsibility to watch  each other's back. Now and always. Charity begans in the home first. Not across the Sea's to far lands. Unless our Military is there. GOD Bless All of You.

[THESOBPOSSE]

Shit this sux...I think I'll just live for today, and just do what I can as an individual.Untill they come for my weapons. Then i'll use my interrupiton of my founded 2nd amendment wright.Untill then Peace...

[spiralcosmosart]

I love these efforts. Whatever it takes for those with the guns to see who the real enemies are. Until that happens the innocent civilians just trying to peacefully earn a living with their own meager and frugal private property are screwed.

[rainger1ful]

@spiralcosmosart Well what can you do. I got it, GO get a gun!! everyone!!! It has finally come down to it. What else can you do but protect yourselves.

[spiralcosmosart]

@rainger1ful Hopefully we can all learn to persuade people to protect themselves with integrity instead of violence. Hopefully we can all avoid intimidation and blind worship of undeserving authority figures so that violence won't be necessary.

[wrightpaw]

@rainger1ful At 1st I didn't like the OTs, but as I learn more like thru this I am begining to think your right. Ole' Soldier

[cowboy1165]

I wonder what jerkoff Mathews has to say about this?

[ronheri]

God bless the Oath Keepers and the Constitution.

[99minerkc]

@ronheri , Yeah, you pray to your DEAF god!! rofl!!

[rainger1ful]

@99minerkc GOD is not deaf and one day you may have to call on him to help you. So don't call him Deaf or he may not answer you.

[rainger1ful]

@ronheri You sure have that right. Our Oath Keepers are our first line of defense. So have his back and he will have yours GOD BLESS THEM!!! and yes GOD BLESS THE CONSTITUTION.!!!

[EnslaveTheEmos]

why cant you give a name of this civilian satan worshiping leader?

jus give a name and some background and people will actually be able to try and answer your question.

[intrepidorator]

If our leaders don't plan on issuing unconstitutional orders, then they have nothing to fear from police and military obeying the constitution.

[NoseNuggets]

@intrepidorator

Roughly 90% of the crap the Federal Government does is unconstitutional. Our government overthrows democratically elected leaders of sovereign nations. What do you need, Gestapo knocking down you door? wake up already.

[campaign4liberty]

Thank you - posted on dailypaul(dot)com

[lenny380]

You guys better watch out Obama is going after anyone who forms any kind of "radical " group. They will start labeling groups to look racist, etc., at the drop of a hat. Tragedy really.

[stoptheshearing]

Stewart Rhodes yale educated lawyer (bonesman) any relation to the old illumnist Cecil Rhodes ? The fact alone that he's a lawyer should at least raise your eyebrows . Yes my comments will be attacked or ignored , however he has said on MSM that certain Veterans groups against the wars in Iraq and Afganistan are left wing nut jobs . why defame and marginalize these good people , Rhodes needs to answer some serious questions !

[OathKeepersOK]

@stoptheshearing: You have been ignored because you appear to be a troll since you have been spamming us with wild accusations with no references to facts. You obviously know nothing about Stewart Rhodes personal life and his character. He is not a member of skull and bones and is not related to Cecil Rhodes. We seek only to unify Americans through the simple message - Obey your Oath. Did you even watch this video?

[pulpBleacher]

@OathKeepersOK > Thank you for stating that one needs references when stating points or attempting arguement - this relatively small but extremely important point of reference and citation is paramount to being listened to not to mention it assists in gaining credibility and respect...

Thanks again

[seeker2012]

@OathKeepersOK I do support Oathkeepers but I have a problem with Stewart speaking next to our nations flag with the Gold Flange--why????---

[bmcgrew2]

@seeker2012 yes what is going on here? I saw this in another one of his videos . Why is this flying?

[cleanmrbroadway]

@seeker2012 Your question is, who else is he talking too. If I understand you corerectly. 

[blx2000]

@stoptheshearing I guess everyone that gets into the public eye is evil? Stewart can't be evil. He is working for the exact opposite of the people that are destroying our country.

[waypasthadenough]

@stoptheshearing

Probably because they are. The military has its share of commies. Many of them will have no problem killing real Americans to enforce the NWO commie police state...

[darrellmellissa]

A great Idea, But I have very little faith in the type of peaple taking the oath.

[phnixlady]

Oathkeepers Rock.

[OathKeepersOK]

@SurvivingSTL: What are you talking about? Did you even watch this video? Are your wild accusations directed towards Stewart Rhodes?

Never swore an oath? Stewart swore an oath twice Army Airborne and as a lawyer

Masonic ring? - Stewarts not even wearing a ring in this video and he is not a mason.

Satan worshipper? - WTF??? You are way off base and out of line. If you have any integrity, you will come back here and apologize for making these wild and false accusations.

[ARMToxic1776]

@OathKeepersOK

SurvivingSTL was not referring to Stewart Rhodes. He is talking about the organizer/leader of the St. Charles, MO branch of Oathkeepers. I was there at the meeting with him and I saw the Mason ring too. What SurvivingSTL may be inferring is that the St. Charles group may be infiltrated.

[ARMToxic1776]

@ARMToxic1776

Could be nothing though. I hear it's only part of the Masons that are working for the NWO. It is definatly worth looking into though.

[OathKeepersOK]

Thanks for the clarification. If anyone has a concern about someone in an OK leadership position there are means to address this in our forum (not here on the comments section of YouTube).

[rainger1ful]

@OathKeepersOK I don't think that person is stupid, I think that person is just an obama freak and just want's you to be angry. Don't give them the satisfaction. they obviously have Brain damage. God Bless Our OathKeepers.

[catluvztheusa]

Great video. Thanks for being here.

[jokertim777]

Nothing ensures a government's civility towards its people better than a well armed and trained populace. One third of American households own an average of three guns each. Two thirds of the American populace is derelict in their duty. If you want this nation to move towards freedom, encourage your friends and neighbors to accept the mantle of responsibility and join the ranks of American Patriots.

[altops]

Can you please weigh out the "Pledge of Allegiance" for the "American Citizen and perhaps have a spin off organization for those who take no Oath but pledge Allegiance to the United States of America? this perhaps will bind the American Oath Keeper with the American Citizen a.k.a. civilian. altops.

[altops]

what will be the penalty for Oath Violation? ?

Even Notary Publics Take the Oath, how can they defend and protect the Oath?

This is the biggest question I ponder!

[lurchpop]

@altops usually nothing if it even gets noticed. cops think they can do whatever they want. God bless the Constitution and God bless the VIDEO CAMERA!

[Bolverkson1984]

I wonder how some of these guy feel about the recent militia raids?

[Prohumani]

thanks mr. rhodes

the oath! the truth!

[1776isBACK]

God Bless You, Oathkeepers.

[nanabx2]

Thank you Oathkeepers for your continued selfless service to this country. May God Bless You all.

[Rachella38]

@CATTLEDOGwatchNsheep...Just Google it, if you don't believe it exists.

"U.S. Constitution Amendment 28", and bingo there it is.

Obama & Congress broke the Supreme Law of the Land.

[950horsepower]

This is like lucid dreaming. And in some sense there is value to the notion of sincerity in politics.

The OathKeepers is a good idea, and a step in the right direction. Enforcement is another story, because it must be the point of separation of standards.

A second set of ethical standards is thus created, that applies only to those under oath.

Worthless unless it is well defined, aggressively prosecuted and extremely strict.

Zero tolerance is the only way.

No appeal, no parole.

[MrBankRuns]

All my life I have always respected law enforcement personnel. Now we will see if they respect the people they have sworn to protect & serve.

[PioKolby]

The idea that Americans need to get to know the Police and Military as our fellow Americans is long over due the days of the people fearing the Police and the Police fearing us are over. People in this once fine country either worship the Military or hate it. I would submit we have had fear placed between us on purpose. This no longer needs to be so. America Pray for your Police and Military. Police & Military Pray for and get to know our People again most are not to be feared and targeted.

[Rachella38]

The "KENNEDY HEALTH CARE BILL" was written into the New Health Care Reform initiative ensuring that OBAMA, His Family & Congress will be 100% EXEMPT!

[xxDogsoldierxx]

@Rachella38 Not only this but we need to bring back common law courts.I have my copy and I'm studying.

[Rachella38]

@xxDogsoldierxx ..Yes that's right we should.

[altops]

That is tyranny by definition!

[Rachella38]

AMENDMENT 28

Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators or Representatives, and Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States .

[Rachella38]

We should all get a copy of our Constitution and learn it and live by it. The men who wrote it were firm believers in the Holy Bible.

[Pangea2012Earth]

@Rachella38 Please do not divide us on faith - I am an agnostic/Atheist and have to live with people hating me everyday because I do not like religion. I love the Constitution and, like many, think our country is going down the wrong road. Atheists/Agnostics make up about 10-15% of our population – and believe me, you want us on your side. I try to live my life by Mathew 5 and 6 – I live my life by his teachings not by professed faith.

[cmfluteguy]

@Rachella38

Well that disqualifies them from recognizing facts.

You morons have Dunning-Kruger syndrome.

Seek help.

[CATTLEDOGwatchNsheep]

there is no 28th amendment

no hate just saying

some people read your statement & think yea thats right

it would be nice but its not an amendment

[conspiracy777]

That needs to be etched in a great big stone and dropped on the heads of everyone in congress.

[Rachella38]

***Communist Regime!

[UtherPendragan]

I was watching MSNBC the other day and they called the oathkeepers a hate group. I am really starting to feel scared for the future of our nation. How could anyone think that following your oath to the consititution is somehow a hate group? This was no mistake, our media is selling us into socalist slavery.

[uodet]

@UtherPendragan never watch it - "The Media" is social programming - Media has never been about entertainment or information - THE MEDIA IS SOCIAL ENGINEERING AND MIND CONTROL - Try to read the following statement, then re-read it, and tell me it doesn't make you think you want to watch television - Never turn on your television again for any reason - So, how many times did you read the above statement? and how do you feel? - READ IT 3 MORE TIMES. Then respond. Turn OFF the programming.

[rainger1ful]

@UtherPendragan That's how they work. They try to turn people against you before you have the time to warn the public. It's a blame Game. always has been alway's will be. We have to find a way to fight back . To show people we are not like they say we are. That's why it's so important to reach the people, the way the Tea Partiers have.

[hazeywolf]

@UtherPendragan A liberal progressive friend explained his negative view of the oathkeepers this way; who's to interpret the Constitution? The military, Congress, police, oathkeepers? They are all sworn to obey the Constitution, which is legally interpreted by the President during emergencies via executive emergency powers and its up to the Federal judiciary and SCOTUS to interpret the Constitution daily. The Fed and State authorities have authority to regulate & suspend "rights."

[UtherPendragan]

@hazeywolf who's to interpret the Constitution? The person who takes the oath. It is written in plain english. The SCOTUS only comes into the mix when issues that are not clearly covered come up. The president takes the same oath as soldiers. The Fed and States do not have the authority to suspend rights. They did not give them to you and they can not take them away. The only authority rests with We The People.

[hazeywolf]

@UtherPendragan Marbury v. Madison 1803: In one sweeping move, the Supreme Court declared that it had the power to review any law to determine if it violated the Constitution. The SCOTUS determined that it has the power to interpret the Constitution, just as it inherently has the power to interpret all laws. Current SCOTUS often rules 5-4, exemplifying meaningful difference of legal opinions.  CA Prop 8 is an example of the "tyranny" of the majority doesn't always win.

[7F0X7]

@hazeywolf I'll tell your liberal friend who's to interpret the Constitution. ANY AMERICAN WITH A 5TH GRADE READING LEVEL COMPREHENSION. IT'S WRITTEN IN PLAIN ENGLISH. Is your friend really that stupid? and NO, the "fed and state authorities" do NOT have the AUTHORITY TO SUSPEND RIGHTS! Executive orders are unconstitutional to begin with! The president can't just open his mouth and declare his will. The constitution gives him no authority, except to sign a bill! The president works for US!

[hazeywolf]

@7F0X7 lol, well there r a lot of stupid libtards, statists, globalists, socialists, etc - and they interpret (twist) the Constitution differently than folks like you and me and often pass laws which we are all required to obey or challenge their constitutionality in court... I don't like it any more than you do, but that's the way it is. Not everyone agrees, so its left to the supreme court to decide... In the meantime, you can break the law and go to jail, and/or file a lawsuit.

[hazeywolf]

@7F0X7 SCOTUS ruled 5-4 on the McDonald v Chicago 2nd amendment case, with a wide range of opinions and interpretations presented. If SCOTUS can't uniformly agree on a clear interpretation of "the right of the people shall not be infringed," then how you or Oathkeepers claim that every individual's personal interpretation if the Constitution is correct and justified? Philosophically, they may be right, but until SCOTUS rules, such opinions remain legal supposition.

[7F0X7]

@hazeywolf Easy, "SCOTUS" must be a bunch purposely trying to subvert the constitution. If you actually buy into a possibility of interpreting the 2nd amendment any other way than DON'T INFRINGE THE RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, then you disgust me. It's not hate, it's something more that the word "hate" can capture. If you actually believe in what these tyrants are doing to our constitution then Hell really will be where you should be. You would single handedly solve the problem of a just hell.

[hazeywolf]

@7F0X7 OK then, who is to interpret the constitution then...?

I'm with you brother - we need amendments, or a new constitution if we are to re-assert the founder's vision. SCOTUS is corrupt. Talk is cheap; why don't you politically protest by walking San Francisco with a loaded, 30rn automatic AR if you feel so strongly, and fight for our natural rights.

Don't get me wrong - I'm on your (our) side - I'm just stating the facts. The constitution mostly dead. Lets work to revive it.

[7F0X7]

@hazeywolf I already answered your question. Anyone with a 5th grade reading level or so can interpret it. It's clear as day on the bill of rights at least. And NO we DON'T need a new constitution. The one we have is just fine. History has shown that protests are meaningless! Even Dr. King's protests only made it so that they could have the same lack of rights that whites had. Just look at where blacks are today (in general). Talk IS cheap, only armed revolution will accomplish anything.

[hazeywolf]

@7F0X7 The four boxes of liberty: "There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury and ammo. Please use in that order".

[newgirl2u2]

@UtherPendragan That is scary, because they (Feds, police) will call those of us who are wanting to keep our country free from tyranny. We will be the hunted if they are calling this group of Freedom fighters, Americans with purpose, HATE, it is not that at all. Today I watched the Philadelphia police brutality of 1978, under Frank Rizzo.
