This is not that big, stop being so dramatic. The very first line removed is the authorization for maintaining a Navy, the United States's most significant military asset.

This is obviously a mistake. An embarrassing one, but not a conspiracy. None of this carries any legal weight whatsoever, this is a website! Our government predates the web by a couple hundred years!

Imagine if the laws of our country hung on the thread of a single line of PHP.
