PETITION FOR DAVID SACKS TO SELF-DEPORT
We the undersigned strongly encourage David Sacks to self-deport due to his support for anti-American values and propaganda, namely the executive order titled "ENSURING A NATIONAL POLICY FRAMEWORK FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
Our Concerns
1. Coercive Federalism Through Funding Conditions
This order directs agencies to deny discretionary grants and broadband funding to states based on their AI policies. The Supreme Court in NFIB v. Sebelius (2012) held that the federal government cannot use funding conditions so coercive that they effectively compel states to adopt federal policy preferences. Threatening to withhold infrastructure funding unless states abandon their regulatory choices crosses this line.
2. Executive Overreach Without Congressional Authorization
The order directs the FTC and FCC to issue preemptive standards and establishes a DOJ task force to litigate against state laws—all before Congress has enacted any national AI framework. Preemption of state law is a serious constitutional matter that should result from deliberate legislative action, not executive fiat.
3. Weaponizing the Department of Justice
Creating a task force whose "sole responsibility" is to sue states over their policy choices transforms the DOJ into an instrument of policy enforcement rather than law enforcement. This sets a troubling precedent for federal-state relations.
4. Vague and Subjective Standards
The order targets state laws deemed "onerous" or inconsistent with "minimal burden" policies—terms nowhere defined. This vagueness grants the executive branch broad discretion to target disfavored state policies selectively.
5. Dismissing Legitimate State Interests
States have valid reasons to regulate AI, including consumer protection, civil rights enforcement, and democratic accountability. Characterizing these efforts as obstacles to "dominance" dismisses the legitimate interests states represent.
Self-Removal Basics
David can leave at any time. He doesn’t have to wait for ICE officials to find, arrest, detain and remove him. He can plan and organize his affairs.
If ICE officials arrest him, there’s no going back — he may not have time to get his affairs in order, gather his belongings, or even say goodbye to the people he cares about.
He does not need to turn himself in to an ICE office if he intends to self-deport. He may simply leave the country. If ICE arrests him because he didn’t turn himself in, the agency will detain and remove him — and he may have to spend several months in detention while he's awaiting removal.
If he's already in proceedings before a Department of Justice immigration judge, leaving may result in a bar to reentry, which means he may not be able to return to the U.S. for a specific period of time.
ICE may agree to seek dismissal of removal proceedings if he proves he left the U.S. on his own — and that way, you he be able to avoid getting a final order of removal (and the negative consequences that come with it).
