When “Glitches” Start Eating the Constitution, You’d Better Pay Attention

What happened—and what vanished
In early August 2025, something happened that should have every thinking person in this country sitting up straight and asking questions, because the Library of Congress’ Constitution Annotated website suddenly lost major pieces of Article I, and not just some harmless footnotes either, but the meat of it—the kind of text that defines how our government works and, more importantly, what limits keep it from going too far.
We’re talking about a huge chunk of Section 8, which lays out exactly what Congress can and can’t do, powers like raising armies, regulating commerce, and writing the laws that hold this whole system together. Then the entire Sections 9 and 10 vanished—Sections that aren’t just legal decoration, they are the actual brakes on government overreach and state-level power grabs. Section 9 protects rights like habeas corpus, meaning the government can’t just lock you up because it feels like it, and Section 10 makes sure states don’t go off playing their own dangerous games as if they were their own private kingdoms.
The official story? They blamed a “coding error”—some XML tag that apparently went rogue and chewed through the Constitution like a digital paper shredder. They patched it and put it back online later that day, and sure, maybe that’s all it was, but you’d be a fool not to notice how neatly this “error” lined up with recent chatter from people in power about suspending habeas corpus, like civil liberties are just toggles in a settings menu they can flip on and off depending on their mood.
Why people suspect intentional wrongdoing
When critical protections vanish from public view right after certain officials start daydreaming out loud about gutting those same protections, it’s not conspiracy—it’s paying attention. It’s the natural, rational reaction of anyone who understands history and has seen how quickly freedoms can disappear when people in charge get comfortable pushing the line just a little further each time.
Integrity—If the guardrails of our Constitution can disappear with one glitch, then you have to ask yourself what else could be erased when no one’s watching.
Transparency—You can’t run a democracy in the dark. The public has a right to see exactly what’s written into the rules, every single day, without exception.
Resistance—When those in power start fantasizing about extremes, silence isn’t peace—it’s surrender.
Remembrance—These words in the Constitution are not ornaments. They are survival tools. You take them away, even for an hour, and you risk giving someone the idea that they were never essential in the first place.
So let’s not mince words—freedom doesn’t die with a bang, it dies in the little things. It dies in the quiet removal of text from a government website, in the shrug and the “just a glitch” explanation, in the hope that no one will notice because most people don’t look. But some of us do look. And we see exactly what’s at stake.
And now to the Trump crowd, in case you’re still here thinking I’m about to sweet talk you into a friendly little debate—no. I’m not coming back to trade half-baked slogans with people who treat the Constitution like a napkin you can crumple up and toss away when it’s inconvenient. You can wave your hats, chant your nonsense, and cheer for the man who couldn’t pass a middle school civics test if you wrote the answers on his hand—but I’m not your audience, I’m not your dance partner, and I’m not here to validate your delusions. Keep the popcorn, keep the noise, because I’m gone before the clown show starts.
Love always,
