OATH KEEPERS USA
“Stand your ground!”
(Captain John Parker, Lexington, MA, April 19th 1775)
Oath Keepers USA is a group of proud American Patriots who are dedicated to upholding the Constitution of the United States of America. Our members have rich, diverse backgrounds and include prior and current military, law enforcement, firefighters, first responders and civilians, all of whom have taken a solemn oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Our Mission is to honor our Oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic. We believe that it is our patriotic duty to peacefully protest unlawful actions of our government.
Our Values are Honorable and loyal, with integrity to the core. Respectful of others, no matter our differences.Courageous and righteous in our pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness.Selfless, committed and prepared to serve.Willing to share our time, talents and resources.
Ten Orders We Will NOT Obey
The following are the Ten Orders that Oath Keepers USA will never obey. Orders such as this are illegal and would only be issued by corrupt and tyrannical leaders. Those who follow illegal orders go against the Oath they have sworn, as well as the Constitution of the United States.
(Click on area to open)
1. Orders prohibiting freedom of religion, speech, press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
These are rights specifically listed in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. They are designed to protect against government attacks on worship, free speech and the press.
2. Orders to disarm the American people
This would be a violation of the Second Amendment. Private ownership of firearms is the greatest deterrent to tyranny ever devised. Only criminals, tyrants, and those willing to trade liberty for “security” wish for a disarmed populace.
3. Orders to conduct warrantless searches and seizures of the American people, their houses, papers and effects.
This would be a violation of the Fourth Amendment.
4. Orders to confiscate the private property of the American people without due process.
This would be a violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Life, liberty and property are the three great freedoms that are supposed to be secured by the government.
5. Orders to detain American citizens as “unlawful enemy combatants” or subjecting them to military tribunals.
This would be a violation of the Fourth (people are secure in their persons), Fifth (due process), Sixth (right to a speedy public trial by an impartial jury), and Fourteenth (deprival of life, liberty, or property) Amendments.
6. Orders to invade and subjugate any American state that asserts its sovereignty.
The Tenth Amendment states, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States, respectively, or to the people.”
7. Orders to blockade American cities.
The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 generally prevents a president from using federal troops as a domestic police force.
8. Orders to impose martial law or a “state of emergency” on an American state.
There is no power delegated to the federal government to impose martial law.
9. Orders forcing American citizens into any form of detention camp.
This would be a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment (right to life, liberty and property).
10. Orders to assist or support the use of foreign troops on U.S. soil against the American people.
Foreign troops within our borders, whether ally or enemy, have no allegiance to our Constitutional Republic and no obligation to uphold the rights of the American people. Under any pretext, we will consider this an invasion and act of war.
An Important Message for
American Patriots
BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MESSAGE
JULY 2025 MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
“Whosoever looks upon them as an irregular mob, will find himself much mistaken. They have men among them who knew very well what they are about.. .” Lord Percy, British officer who led the fleeing British troops back to Boston after the Battles of Lexington and Concord, April 19, 1775.
Attention all anti-ICE rioters waving Mexican flags; “No Kings Day” vandals; racist BLMers; ANTIFA thugs; Hamas and Iranian terrorist sympathizers; anarchists, Marxists, discontented loafers and oath-breakers nationwide: American patriots are NOT an irregular mob, cowering in their basements as major cities burn at your hands. American patriots, as individuals or as part of groups like Oath Keepers USA, have among them men and women who know very well what they are about—and they are prepared to honor their Oath.
We have read your delusional manifestos. We have studied your tactics. You employ violence and fear in an attempt to impose your will upon others. Well, we’ve got news for you: The fiercely independent spirit that gave birth to the American Revolution is alive and well. We the People are skilled in multiple areas and are prepared to defend ourselves, our loved ones and this Constitutional Republic against enemies like you. Attack us at your own risk.
Dear Patriots,
This July 4th marks the 249th year since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Let’s all take a moment to thank God for the freedoms we enjoy and reflect upon the fact that preserving the Republic is a sacred duty we each owe. Let’s pray for our men and women in uniform, here and abroad, who are fighting the good fight on our behalf. Let’s celebrate while staying alertly watchful of our surroundings. Lastly, let’s take a few minutes to read the Declaration and re-discover our foundational values—values which will guide us through the tempest.
Thanks to all our our members for all they do.
If you are not yet a member, join us or consider donating to help further our mission.
Educate, serve and prepare. Stay frosty. Keep your head on swivel.
For the Republic
Guardians of the Republic, Stand Your Ground!
