Yes, this is actually happening.
Conservative legal activist Larry Klayman has submitted what he calls a “deportation petition” against President Barack Obama, asking authorities to begin the process of removing Obama from the country.
Klayman won the first and thus-far only federal court ruling against the National Security Agency’s bulk collection of U.S. phone records in December 2013 and is defending that win before a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Nov. 4.
Well-known for his unconventional style, Klayman likened Obama to King George III during his first courtroom showdown in the NSA case and suggested an insurrection might happen if U.S. District Judge Richard Leon did not rule against the phone program.
Leon ruled in Klayman’s favor, but not before the seasoned litigator – a Reagan administration attorney who became a thorn in the side of the Clinton and Bush administrations – emceed a rally in front of the White House and gave Obama a deadline to resign or face the election of a shadow government.
Klayman says his effort to deport Obama is unlikely to influence appeals court judges considering his arguments against mass surveillance.
The three-judge panel hasn't been named, but if anything, Klayman tells U.S. News, it should be helpful to the case because "it underscores that [Obama] is not an honest person."
The American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which have their own currently less-successful lawsuits against the NSA program, have requested time to speak at the appeals hearing, which Klayman and the government are not opposing.
The U.S. Supreme Court is widely expected to have the final say on the NSA phone program, and Klayman stands a good chance of arguing the case, possibly alongside the ACLU, Electronic Frontier Foundation and others who filed lawsuits.
Klayman’s deportation request – mailed to three Department of Homeland Security officials Thursday – asks for an investigation and hearing into Obama’s citizenship status. If authorities ignore the request, Klayman intends to file a lawsuit to force action.
“As demonstrated by the evidence established in exhibits and attached affidavits, there is prima facie evidence that Barack Hussein Obama is removable from the United States and in violation of the law under the legally recognized categories of falsely claiming U.S. citizenship,” Klayman wrote to the officials. "Even if a legitimate birth certificate exists, Barack Obama's repeated use of a clearly forged birth certificate is still a crime."
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a division of the Department of Homeland Security, did not respond to a request for comment.
Obama’s birth certificate, validated by the Hawaii state government and publiclyreleasedin April 2011, says he was born in Honolulu on Aug. 4, 1961. Birth announcements were printed intwolocal newspapers at the time. There has never been legitimate evidence presented showing Obama was born outside of the U.S.
Klayman’s evidence,posted to the website of his group Freedom Watch, includes three books by author Jerome Corsi, including the ill-timed “Where’s the Birth Certificate?” Obama released the long-form version of his birth certificate – a key demand of conspiracy theorists – less than a month before the book’s release date.
The release of the long-form document deflated commentary on the once-popular conspiracy theory Obama was born somewhere else, but some skeptics clung to their beliefs. In a shocking 2012 press conference Maricopa County, Arizona, Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the long-form document was a “computer-generated forgery,” citing a volunteer "cold case posse" probe that weighed Corsi's theories.
A February YouGov/Economist poll found a significant minority of Americans still doubt that Obama was born in the U.S., with 38 percent saying he was either born outside the U.S. or that “it’s possible he was born inside the U.S.”
Klayman says his aim is not to procure more documents during the process of an investigation, but rather to actually deport the president.
"I want him deported," he says of Obama. "He should be deported. He’s been in this country illegally, he’s an illegal alien. … You can't claim you're an American citizen when you're not and be president of the United States."
