The biggest threats to our form of government \u2014 and one being pushed by the Biden administration and largely ignored by Congress \u2014 are the upcoming votes on two World Health Organization (WHO) instruments that violate our representative system.<\/p>\n<p>Each element of our constitutional system is at risk if the White House and Congress fail to stop the WHO\u2019s global governance scheme.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2-long d-flex justify-content-center\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-97059031\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1379703300879-0\" class=\"mb-30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-144154372c3bfb7d0ab6b4764add49b3 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-144154372c3bfb7d0ab6b4764add49b3\"><\/div>\n<p>The instruments under consideration by the WHO are <a href=\"https:\/\/doortofreedom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/A_WGIHR2_5-en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">amendments<\/a> to the International Health Regulations (IHR) and the concurrent <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.who.int\/gb\/inb\/pdf_files\/inb9\/A_inb9_3-en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pandemic Treaty,<\/a> both of which will be voted on by the World Health Assembly (made up of the 196 member states) in less than two months.\u00a0The purpose of these <a href=\"https:\/\/doortofreedom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/A_WGIHR2_5-en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">documents<\/a> is to give the WHO director-general the sole ability not only to declare <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/how-to-show-lockdowns-are-killing-more-people-than-the-virus\/\" title=\"How To Show Lockdowns Are Killing More People Than The Virus\">public health<\/a> emergencies of international concern<\/em> (PHEIC) but to mandate for every nation the global response such as lockdowns, travel restrictions, mandatory testing and vaccinations, and border closures.\u00a0In addition, nations will be forced to spend billions of dollars to implement this global governance framework based on the principle of \u201cequity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>First, this is a threat to our constitutional republic because it removes the people\u2019s elected representatives from their decision-making roles.\u00a0Our elected officials on the local, state, and federal level will no longer control when and what is considered a public health emergency or what the government response will be. <\/p>\n<p>The director general will have the sole authority to make declarations not only for actual pandemics but for any issue that has the <em>potential<\/em> to affect global health.\u00a0Think climate change, gun violence, food security, abortion laws, rules for transgender medical interventions, and any other so-called threat to public health. The WHO has already weighed in on the \u201cglobal health risks\u201d tied to each of these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/in-corporate-america-and-academia-silence-speaks-volumes\/\" title=\"In Corporate America and Academia, Silence Speaks Volumes\">hot-button political issues<\/a>. There will be no ability for citizens to vote for or against the decision-makers, undermining the very concept of representative democracy.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, these documents are a threat to the constitutional protections we now enjoy.\u00a0The establishment of a global <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.who.int\/gb\/inb\/pdf_files\/inb9\/A_inb9_3-en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">surveillance state <\/a>by the WHO threatens the basic privacy rights of all Americans while the requirement in these accords for nations to \u201ccombat false, misleading, misinformation or disinformation\u201d could easily violate our First Amendment freedom of speech. Each nation will be required to share intellectual property for use by other countries, decimating our unique American patent rights.\u00a0Our constitutional protections will be undermined if the WHO gets its way.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-966100568e871557b7e477bcce7f00c1 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-966100568e871557b7e477bcce7f00c1\"><\/div>\n<p>Finally, under our federal system, the\u00a0regulation of health care is under the purview of the states, including regulating the licensure of doctors, pharmacies, and hospitals and determining what vaccinations are required for school attendance. We experienced this clearly during the Covid crisis, when state and local leaders had, for the most part, the ability to decide when and how businesses and schools would reopen.\u00a0Under the Pandemic Treaty and accompanying IHR amendments, this authority will be stripped from the states and given to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-un-pick-urges-continued-u-s-presence-in-chinese-led-panels\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s UN pick urges continued U.S. presence in Chinese-led panels\">international organization<\/a> in clear violation of the 10th Amendment to the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>To add insult to the very real injury about to befall us is the fact that the White House plans to sign onto the Pandemic Treaty and IHR amendments by \u201cexecutive agreement\u201d rather than submit them to the Senate for its constitutionally mandated advice and consent.\u00a0And the U.S. Senate appears willing to accept this usurpation of their power.\u00a0Last March, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., offered an amendment to require a Senate vote on the Pandemic Treaty, but it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.senate.gov\/legislative\/LIS\/roll_call_votes\/vote1181\/vote_118_1_00071.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">failed<\/a> to gain even one Democrat vote.\u00a0This dereliction of duty on behalf of the Senate should not be excused.<\/p>\n<p>Is there a \u201cthreat to democracy\u201d facing our country today?\u00a0Yes, indeed.\u00a0It is the threat to our very constitutional republic by the World Health Organization via its proposed Pandemic Treaties and the refusal of the administration and Senate to do anything to stop it.\u00a0This threat is not rhetorical but very real. And we, as Americans, must unite against it.<\/p>\n<p><em>This article was originally published at <a href=\"https:\/\/eagleforum.org\/publications\/kullman\/a-republic-if-you-can-keep-it.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Eagle Forum<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-230ef0f4fdf61da0f6373238ebd12680 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-10\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-230ef0f4fdf61da0f6373238ebd12680\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-a9448e37582ca9631c28aa28a61049c5 fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-a9448e37582ca9631c28aa28a61049c5\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">    \t\t\t\t\t   \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tendency of the left to label opposing views or policies as a \u201cthreat to democracy\u201d overlooks the United States&#8217; status as a constitutional and federal republic.
