Home School Heartbeat Radio Program

How can concerned citizens fight our courts' postmodern application of customary international law? Join Michael Farris on Home School Heartbeat as he proposes some practical solutions.

Michael Farris:


Congress has the power to define customary international law. It also has the power to modify the jurisdiction of the federal courts. Congress needs to address this issue of judicial tyranny by enacting legislation that limits the definition of customary international law to include only provisions of treaties that Congress has ratified. Home School Legal Defense Association will be working with members of the House and Senate to introduce such legislation in the weeks ahead. When that legislation is introduced, we will need the assistance of every individual in this country who believes that American self-government should be preserved.


A more long-term project would address the general threat to American domestic sovereignty that is posed by all forms of international laws, including ratified treaties.


Simply put, it should require more than the signature of the president and a two-thirds vote of the Senate to change United States domestic law via the treaty process.


In The Rights of Man, Thomas Paine wrote: "All power exercised over a nation must have some beginning. It must either be delegated or assumed. There are no other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." Together, we must protect our right to be a self-governing, sovereign nation.
