REVEALED: Parler’s New CEO Wants Convention That Would Let George Soros Rewrite The Constitution
Parler's new CEO is the public face of the Convention of States, which would rewrite the U.S. Constitution. Soros is a big proponent.
Mark Meckler, the new interim CEO of Parler, currently supports a Convention of States that could give George Soros and other interests the power to rewrite the Constitution.
Meckler, who was appointed as interim CEO of Parler following the removal of founder John Matze, currently runs the Convention of States Project, a supposed “grassroots” organization pushing for a convention under Article V of the Constitution.
The project describes itself as a “national effort to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress,” which initially sounds appealing.
However, a report by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities argued that such a restriction on an Article V convention would be impossible, with states unable to control what a convention could and could not discuss, and nobody else having clear constitutional control over the convention.
Former Chief Justice Warren Burger wrote in 1988 that “there is no way to effectively limit or muzzle the actions of a Constitutional Convention. The Convention could make its own rules and set its own agenda. Congress might try to limit the Convention to one amendment or one issue, but there is no way to assure that the Convention would obey. After a Convention is convened, it will be too late to stop the Convention if we don’t like its agenda.”
Conservative Justice Antonin Scalia echoed this sentiment in 2014. “I certainly would not want a constitutional convention,” said Scalia. “Whoa! Who knows what would come out of it?”
As such, it may be no surprise that the Convention of States Project is joined in its push for a convention by George Soros, and other leftist advocacy organizations, who as soon as a convention was called, would likely push for all of their constitutional amendments on the table.
The New Republican noted in 2014 that “George Soros — the financier of global fascism — is pumping millions of dollars into the same Article V campaign that is being promoted by” top conservative voices, including Mark Levin.
Speaking to National File, a spokesman from the John Birch Society described Meckler as the “advocacy face” of the Constitutional Convention movement, and noted that he appears to be “inconsistent with his wording of an Article V Convention, as well as his own description of Convention of States.”
