The Biden administration is killing people, openly in Ukraine and Gaza and secretly around the world.

Do you agree with the decision to send weapons, soldier and ships to the Middle East as a deterrent in the Israel-Hamas war? It has continued to use the killing machinery crafted by President George W. Bush, expanded by President Barack Obama and employed by President Donald Trump. These presidents have used drones and other unmanned projectiles to target people in foreign countries with which the United States is not at war.

The Fifth Amendment prohibits killing persons, restraining liberty and taking property without due process; that means a jury trial at which the government must prove criminal behavior or fault, depending upon its goal. Julian Assange sits in a British dungeon awaiting decisions on his extradition to the U.S. because he courageously, lawfully and constitutionally published documents and videos demonstrating conclusively that Mr. Bush’s use of drones targeted and murdered Afghan and Iraqi civilians, and his administration covered it up.

The exercise of power by the federal government is largely based on precedent and politics. Whenever a president wants to kill, he need only find an example of a predecessor having killed with impunity — without due process, without a declaration of war and without an imminent attack. And then he needs only to calculate what he thinks he can politically get away with.

The founding generation believed that British monarchs had no limits on their power, and that was a good enough reason for the 13 colonies to violently secede. They also believed that they had crafted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to impose sufficient restraints on the federal government. They believed that the states could peacefully leave a federal government they had voluntarily joined when it exceeded its constitutional powers.
