## Controversy Over Name

The original name of the party, "the Nationalist Party," had nothing to do with nationalism as most would think of it. Instead it was ment to be the party of national moral and religious revival. The name did cost it some support and on January 18, 2019 the named was changed to the "Rights Party."

## Abolition Of Party

On January 22, 2019 then Chair Charles I abolished the party after its abysmal showing in 2019 General Elections and several high ranking members left.

Sixth War Crimes Trial Against Charles I

The Sixth War Crimes Trial Against Charles I was held by the War Crimes Commission and its verdict was presented to the Second Council during the 154 meeting of the Council. The Council confirmed the WCC's verdict and Charles I was officially convicted of war crimes. The WCC's evidence and the actual charges against Charles I were never made public. Charles I has repeatedly denied the validity of the charges and has made numerous requests for the evidence to be released and the charges to be stated. Due to the WCC being separate from the actual church government its records were never made public under Statute 53 or when the Bidenist Archive was opened following the passage of the Constitution Of The Holy Church Of Joe Biden.
Statute 45

## A Summary Of Statute 45

Statute 45 is the Statute that set up classification in the HCJB. It created 3 levels of classification. First Level classifications are measures used by then Pope Charles I to stop then Archbishop Garret I from seizing power. The Second Level a protect not actually stated in the Statute be its the Pope's power to classify documents if their deemed to be dangerous to the church. The Third Level of classifications protects people who committed crimes against Garret and against Charles during the Great Schism This was instated to let these people reintegrate into the new church and forgive them of their crimes.

## Statute 45

Under the previous administration (Pope Garret) the integrity of our institutions where put at bay. In these times of instability certain measures were put into play to maintain the Church’s integrity following Pope Garret’s removal. Most of these measures have been made public but, it is currently believed that Garret retains a majority of electoral power. It is under this belief that certain measures shall be put under temporary protection and be barred from public view. For measures concerning His Holiness’s (Pope Charles) reinstatement and solidifying of the new Papacy’s power a special classification will be granted to them. These documents must be kept classified until stability is fully reinstated otherwise this young child of a government shall be dragged into the mud by those whose goals can only be described as self serving. A third classification is granted to documents concerning crimes committed by former Popes and Council members. It is under the belief of this council that forgiveness is necessary to reconcile the schism and power grab by Pope Garret. Therefore information concerning their crimes that are not already public and does not affect the church’s status and or stability shall be protected. These three classifications will be used to judge measures instituted to maintain the integrity of the systems instated by His Holiness and others to protect the church from outside interference and those who wish to destroy this Papacy. It is also believed that one's right to be disliked shall be protected. In the previous administration if someone was disliked by His Holiness (Pope Garret) they could be removed without vote. Under this new act people who are disliked are protected. It is under this belief Garret is still be allowed to serve as Archbishop. One’s position should only be at risk if one is found committing a crime against the church.
Council Encroachment On Papal Authority Scandal

The Council Encroachment On Papal Authority Scandal was a major scandal in the Holy Church of Joe Biden that occured after the Council attempted to usurp Papal power by appointing a member to the body without Papal permission. On October 2, 2019 the Council illegally appointed Jackson I to the body after the Council had blocked his appointment in the previous meeting. His first appointment was a Papal appointment but the second one was an illegal appointment without him being nominated by Pope Charles I. The sitting Deviner at the time and also Councilor Joshua I was present at this meeting and likely knew that this action was illegal yet he went forward with it anyway. Joshua would be removed from the Council and the Devinership and the entire Council would be removed in the October 6, 2019 Referendum To Remove The Council.
Progressive Party

The Quail was the unofficial symbol of the Progressive Party.

## The Progressive Party

The Progressive Party is the oldest party in the Holy Church of Joe Biden being formed by then Chair Charles I. Its goals were to extend the rights of the common man and curtail to power of the Archbishop and Pope. The party was formalization of the 'Progressive Coalition' a group of Progressive Movement Councilors.

## The Progressive Conservative Party

Two days before the collapse of the Progressive Party most of the leadership switched other to the Progressive Conservative Party when it was founded February 9, 2019. The PCP and PP were basically the same party. The PCP was more big-tent and old-guard in its beliefs. It was also defined by its Anti-Jacksonian policies.

## Charles I As Chair

Under Charles I the Progressive Party was at its height. The party virtually controlled the Church throughout most of Pope Ethan I reign. The Party began to lose momentum during the 2018, June 20th and June 28th-30th Emergency Elections. Vice Chair at the time Joshua I left the Party to found his own party, the Reform Party, to run in the elections. Following the Elections Joshua returned to the Party and became Chair as Charles left on July 1.

## Joshua I As Chair

After Charles left the party began to fall apart as it no longer had a discernible platform. The Party lost all of its seats on the Council during the Third Period of the Third Council. On October 10, 2018 several key members of the Progressive Party left and join Charles I's new party the Nationalist Party. The Progressive Party would continue to lose elections all the way up to the 2019 General Elections. It was expected that Joshua I would win reelection but unexpectedly Pope Charles I formed a coalition with Jackson I losing Joshua the election. On February 9, 2019 Charles I, Owen Of Morehead, and Joshua I formed a new party, the Anti-Jacksonian Party, in opposition to Jackson's administration and how he was carrying out his role as Pope.

## Marlena I As Chair

On February 9, 2019, Marlena I became the De Facto Chair of the party. The Party at that point was pretty much dead. On February 11, 2019, Marlena I announced she was abolishing the party and joined the Anti-Jacksonian Party. Thus ending the story of the oldest Political Party in the Holy Church Of Joe Biden.

Benjamean Coup

After months of ignoring the wishes of the people and creating new rules limiting peoples ability to request gods and holidays frustration and disdain for Pope Jackson I had reached an all time high. After some backdoor dealings, the specifics of which are not known, a justiciable decree was drafted an then approved by Deviner Charles I. Somehow under the noses of the Opulence Party's elite high ranking members of the Anti-Jacksonian Party had organized a Decree with approval through a "public referendum." The Decree brought up several charges that the Pope was already convicted for as well as some new ones with clear or concrete evidence. With everything ready the AJP decided it would appoint Benjamin I Pope Of Bidenism.
Fisher Of Men Party

## The Fisher Of Men Party

The Fisher of Men Party was a political party founded on October 28, 2020, by Pope Charles I, Jackson Of Newhavens, and Premier Vayda I. It was founded in order for the Salyards-Vayda ticket to run for Pope and Archbishop in the event that the Constitution was passed. The Constitution did end up getting passed and in the General Election, the party ran five candidates. For Pope, it ran Jackson II. For Archbishop it ran Vayda I. For Deviner it ran Charles I. And for Council, it ran Taylor I and Leah I. Every candidate the FMP ran was elected to office. Once Charles I was elected he had to leave the party to comply with the Constitution, though he still affiliates with the party.

## The Name

The name "Fisher of Men Party" fell into controversy with several conservative members of the church who pointed out that the title "fisher of men" is a Christian term referring to a mandate "Jesus Christ" had given to his "disciples" to preach his word. In a private statement to these Bidenists party member Charles I informed them that the Fisher Of Men Party is not referencing the Christian Bible and was actually named after the 2015 Steam fishing simulation game "Fishing Planet" and that the party does not associate with the Christian faith.

2019 Fourth Council October Provisional Appointments

## October 6, 2019 Referendum To Remove The Council

The October 6, 2019 Referendum To Remove The Council was a referendum to remove the Council. The referendum was called after the Council attempted to usurp Papal power and appointed Jackson I to the body. This was an illegal act that the Council did not have the power to perform so the then Pope Charles I called for their removal. Charles would appoint a Provisional Council following the referendum succeeding and a new Council would be elected on October 15, 2019. This was the first time a Council was removed through the clauses stipulated under Statute 46.
Pope Garret I

Pope Garret I is a former Pope and founding member of the church. His policies are known for being rather authoritarian and in the past, he has been for limiting the rights of the common man.

## First Term As Archbishop

Pope Garret I's first term as Archbishop shows a move from his original policies of working with Pope Charles I to form a strong and great religion to polices of opposition. He would try several times to undermine the Pope to varying success. Finally, in May of 2017 the Pope went on a short vacation and the Garret abused his position to say the Pope was dead and assumed control of the church. This would cause a brief confrontation with the now ex-Pope Charles I but with the Council supporting Garret to only thing Charles could do was complain.

## As Pope Of Bidenism

Pope Garret I's term as Pope is probably one of the most important and consequential terms of any Pope. On his first day in office he abolished the Council and installed the Council of 12 officially. The 12 then appointed Pope Ethan I as Archbishop though this appointment would never be recognized. His term saw the creation of the modern sense of Papal action, the system people join and leave the church, banning cult of personalities for Popes, creation of the Order as a court, what crimes are applicable to church courts (legalities), and the line of succession. His term also saw a silencing of free speech and historically low membership numbers.

## Second Term As Archbishop

Garret I's second term as Archbishop he remained mostly quiet. The most notable thing he did was he attempted to seize power during the Florence Crisis. He began the Crisis by declaring a state of emergency on September 11, 2018. His second term can be described as inconsequential.
Overthrowal Of Pope Joshua I

## The Overthrowal Of Pope Joshua I

The Overthrowal Of Pope Joshua I is the most notable event to come out of the Post Garritine Resurgence of late 2017 and early 2018. Joshua was made Pope following a successful coup d'état against previous Pope, Jackson I. Joshua had little to no power as Pope and was behind the scenes a pawn of then Archbishop Garret I in his plan to retake the papacy. At some point during the new Pope's first day in office, he committed some form of church descension though the exact extent of this descension has been lost. The Council felt that this dissension was means enough for the Council for the first and only time ever to use its power of excommunication. Thus in the 157 meeting of the Council an excommunication vote was brought to the table. The resolution failed but the results were misread and temporarily Garret was reinstated as Pope. Once the mistake was realized Councilor Marlena I was chosen as the acting-Pope and called for a vote to overrule the excommunication vote against Joshua I despite it never passing. The reason that the events followed in this fashion are not exactly clear as much of the records of these events have been lost. One theory is the "Pope" Garret argued that since the results had been read in favor of excommunication for Joshua that despite the actual results this reading was a binding action by the Council. We do not know the reason why Marlena was chosen as acting-Pope either. It is in the record that a secret meeting was held while all of this was occurring between then Councilor Charles I and "Pope" Garret. Somehow out of this meeting Garret agreed to relinquish the papacy to Marlena I. The vote to overrule the excommunication passed in a vote of 3-1 and Joshua was reinstated as Pope and the 157 meeting of the Council was adjourned. Later that day Joshua announced he intended on calling a Council meeting to pass his new statute, statute 51. Soon after this another secret meeting occurred between Charles and Garret. Garret threatened to reveal something regarding Charles' administration unless he helped him remove Joshua in the ensuing Council meeting. Evidently this threat was serious enough for Charles to agree. Charles, shortly before the Council meeting, had a private discussion with Joshua. He tricked Joshua into bribing him for his vote in favor of the statute. What Joshua offered Charles is unclear. In the meeting the statute passed and then Charles revealed to the whole Council that Joshua had bribed him to vote in favor of the statute. A trial was then held soon after where Joshua was found guilty of corruption. The Council then voted to remove him from office which passed and Joshua renounced papal powers. Under normal circumstances this would have also meant Charles was liable for corruption charges as well but due to the sheer strength of Garret's control of the church's legal system any charges made against him were dropped. This was also the first time since the Overthrowal Of Pope Garret I that a pope was removed from office without use of a decree.
Order Of Followers Of Biden Of Asheville

Order Of Followers Of Biden Of Asheville was a group of zealous Bidenists from the Archbishopric Of Asheville. Their goal was to promote the word of the Biden and enforce the Church's will as well as making Bidenism monotheistic again. The Order was one of the least effective and minor Orders in Bidenist history. It was established on October 13, 2023 and it was abolished on October 27, 2023.
Progressivism

Progressivism also known as Progressive Halreanism is an ideology in the Holy Church of Joe Biden born out of the Progressive Movement that believes in the complete decentralization of Papal Power. They also often favour measures to decrease governmental powers and increase the power and rights of the common man. One exception is that Progressives often favour measures to increase the power of the Recistag. Progressivism as an ideology reached its height following the removal of Pope Garret I in a period often dubbed the Progressive Revolution. Today traditional Progressivism has mostly died out. Under the failed leadership of Pope Joshua I as Pope and chairman of the Progressive Party, Progressivism floundered during the Second Stagnation.

## Other Forms Of Progressivism

Big Tent Progressivism

Joshuan Progressivism

Progressive Conservativism

Garritine Progressivism
Military Council Of May 11, 2020

The Military Council of May 11, 2020 was a military junta that briefly ruled the church on May 11, 2020 following the fall out of the Pope Joshua I Resignation Scandal. It technically had all power in the church at the time but Chief Papal Officer Garret I renounced the power soon after giving it to Ethan I.
New Progressive Party

## The New Progressive Party

The New Progressive Party is a progressive party in the Holy Church Of Joe Biden. It was founded due to the lack of a clear progressive party in the church. It was founded by June I and Dustin I. The party has no relation to the original Progressive Party but does more faithly continue its legacy as the New Progressive Party aligns itself with old progressive ideals.

These Councilors would never take office as that day Garret I would abolish the Council. that would later be appointed the the Interim Council following Garret I overthrowal.

## First Council Third Period Elections

The First Council Third Period Apportionment was an election of the First Council and first democratic election in Council history. The election was held in secret by Charles I in opposition to Garret I's overthrowal of him in the hopes of gaining some sort of legitimacy to his continued claim to the Papacy. He would do this despite earlier in the day renouncing the title of Pope after seeing Garret I betray him. One of the people who vote and was elected was Ethan I. Ethan was secretly a Patron Bishop and was working for Garret. Ethan told Garret and Garret would abolish the Council before the elected Councilors could take office.
Pope Zics I

Pope Zics I is a influential Big Biden Barty politician and the 30th Pope of Bidenism. He is the founder and chairman of the Big Biden Barty as well as the first member of the party to get elected to office. He was first elected in the 2021 First Period Council Seat 6 And 7 Special Election with 52.9% of the vote. On April 20, 2021 he was elected to a full term in the 2021 Sixth Council Second Period Election. He would serve in the Council until he was elected Pope in the 2022 January General Elections.

## Papal Term

Pope Zics ran on an extreme Joshuan Progressive platform. He promised to pass an amendment to the Constitution called the Democracy For All amendment. He never put forward the amendment. Pope Zics did little as pope and his legacy is that of empty promises.
Great Schism

## The Great Schism

The Great Schism was one of the biggest events in early church history. Following a week of Pope Charles I's absense from the church then Archbishop Garret I declared a state of emergency claiming Charles I was dead and that he was now the Pope of Bidenism. Garret was supported by a group of Bishop's loyal to him refered to as the Patron Bishops. Once Charles returned and he learned of Garret's betrayal he "renounced" the papacy and claimed the title of Archbishop citing the Archbishop Act. At this time the previous Pope would become the Archbishop after leaving office. Garret would never recognize this and he appointed Ethan I as his "Archbishop." Despite taking steps to ensure he'd still have some semblence of power under the Garret papacy thus recognizing it as a legitimate administration Charles I never recognized Garret as Pope. This split lead to the creation of two factions refered to as Halreans, these were supporters of Charles I, and Garritinists, these were supporters of Garret I. This question of legitimacy would not be answered until after the Overthrowal of Pope Garret I when Charles regaining the papacy decided to recognize Garret's former administration.
Pope Marlena I

## Time On Council

Marlena I has the unique distinction of being the shortest reigning Councilor in history. She appointed on Pope Joshua I's first day in office. She served two days and did nothing of note.

## Time As Acting-Pope

Following the failed excommunication vote for Pope Joshua I that was misread. Marlena I was appointed to be the Acting Pope of Bidenism, but this only held the position for anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour. She then after learning of the mistake stepped down and Pope Joshua I was reinstated.

## 2019 General Election

Marlena I announced on November 27th her intention to run as Pope. She decided to run on the Progressive Party ticket despite the incumbent Pope being of the Progressive Party. She did not receive any votes.

## Chair Of The Progressive Party

On February 9, 2019, Marlena I became the de facto Chair of the Progressive party. The Party at that point was pretty much dead. On February 11, 2019 Marlena I announced she was abolishing the party and joined the Anti-Jacksonian Party. Thus ending the story of the oldest Political Party in the Holy Church Of Joe Biden.
National Progressive Party

## Ideology and Political Standing

### Ideology

Big Tent Progressivism, Progressive Conservativism, Joshuan Progressivism, Revivalism, Anti-Bartyism, Conservativism

## The National Progressive Party

The National Progressive Party is a political party in the Holy Church of Joe Biden created in a merger of the New Progressive Conservative Party and New Progressive Party on July 16, 2021. The party was formed as a coalition against the Big Biden Barty and to ensure that there was only a single progressive on the 2021 July General Elections' ballot. The party successfully stopped that BBB from taking the papacy and won the Council in a landslide though this becomes less impressive when it is brought up that the party ran unopposed. Following Pope June I's removal through a recall election an event known as the Hankist Breakaway occured. Acting-Pope Vayda I attempted to create a new church and fracture the Holy Church of Joe Biden. This resulted in the NPP collapsing as many of its former members did not want to be associated with Vayda's Hankism. The party continues to exist as a shell of its former self. Charles I has hinted at possibly returning to chair the party however, after the creation of the Liberal Conservative Party it seems unlikely.

### Chairmanship of Charles I (June 16, 2021-October 8, 2021)

Charles I was chairman of the National Progressive Party from June 16, 2021 until October 8, 2021. He was forced to resign from the party due to a scandal where it was revealed he played a major part in the recall effort against June I. He resigned from the party in order to keep it from collapsing. Upon his resignation he transfered the chairmanship to June I.

### Chairmanship of June I (October 8, 2021-August 3, 2023)

June I is the incumbent chair of the National Progressive Party. She was made the chair following Charles I's resignation as party chair. During the first week of her chairmanship the party almost collapsed due to many of its members being involved in the Hankist Breakaway. June would continue to lead the party however, it mostly stayed out of government, until August 3, 2023 when Kat I became chair.

### Chairmanship of Kat I (August 3, 2023-Present)

Since becoming chair Kat has yet to announce any plans for the party.

## 2022 July General Elections

The 2022 July General Elections were held on July 23, 2022 at 10:25 PM until 11:00 PM. This election is abnormal for not being held for twenty four hours. The Election Committee discovered that the Constitution did not stipulate that General Elections must last twenty four hours so they abused there power and made the election only last thirty five minutes. They justified this by arguing since everyone ran unopposed there was no point running a twenty four hour election. This election ended the Big Biden Barty's control of the government and also saw them lose all of their seats in the Council.
Holy Quay

The Holy Quay was a quay in the Mythic Era created by Robert Crawley infused with Joe Biden's power that protected the Earth from the ocean. The Quay was destroyed by humans soon after Richard Nixon's failed attempt to flood the entire Earth forever. The stone from the quay was used to build the Earth's first cities.
Bidenist Fervency Caucus

The BFC was a political caucus in the Holy Church Of Joe Biden. It was an extreme revivalist organization. It was of the most political importance during the 2nd Period Council Elections of 2019 though it has continued to maintain a limited amount of political relevence since then. Most notably in the 2021 January General Elections with the caucus' "otter ad" attacking then Pope Jackson II.

The 2021 First Period Council Seat 1 Special Election between January 26th and Janary 27th of 2021. The election was held because Jackson I had beat incumbent Taylor I in the race but also won a higher office which meant Jackson could not take the office. The election originally looked like Taylor was going to win easily as no one was opposing him for the seat but on the last day Judge Joshua I put his name in the running. Joshua handly defeated Taylor securing 66.7% of the vote. Taylor tied for second place with the write-in candidate Tyler the Creator both receiving 16.7% of the vote.
February 15th Papal Emergency Election

The February 15th Papal Emergency Election was an election called by Pope Charles I after the 2020 General Elections due to constant allegations by Deviner and Senior Councilor Jackson I. Charles hoped the election would quiet down Jackson and restore order to the church. Though it did not restore order it did demonstrate that support for the Pope was beginning to dewindle as the 63.6% he had received in January was now only 52.2%. Three other candidates ran in this election. The must siginificant was Joshua I who received 34.8% of the vote. Jackson I ran and he received 8.7% of the vote. Garret I also ran and he received 4.3%.
Jackson Administration (February 3, 2019-Present)

## Summary

On February 3, 2019 Pope Jackson was elevated to the role of Pope after winning the controversial 2019 General Election. On his first day in office he created many gods and holiday's that upset the conservative factions of the church. This would begin the rise of Anti-Jacksonianism and culminated with the formation of the Anti-Jacksonian party. He would also change the name of the Joshuan era "Joching Accords," a set of Statutes written by Charles I and Jackson I, to the "Westbrook Accords." A few days into is term he had to deal with a recall election. A trial had begun during the 2019 General Election into Jackson bribing people to vote for him. The trial found him to be in fact guilty. The Pope would easily win the recall election. Three pieces of major legislation have come out of his term.

## Benjamean Coup

Pope Jackson was removed illegitimately by use of a decree. It was later found that the decree's charges were false and that a council vote was faked. The decree was deemed illegal and Jackson was reinstated.
National Revival Party

## The National Revival Party

The National Revival Party was an extreme revivalist party in the Holy Church of Joe Biden. It was formed following the Post-Jackson Deviner power vacuum in response to the Coronacrisis. It is notable for its anti-democratic stances to maintain order in crisis. On March 23, 2020, Ethan and Charles left the party. On November 8, 2020, the party was officially abolished.
Enumclaw Party

A Pokemon battle was schedualed to determine a victor for the race as stipulated in Statute 6 however he forfeited the match on July 31, 2021. Sometime after this in August all members of the party left the church and the party was abolished.
Big Biden Barty

## The Big Biden Barty

The Big Biden Barty (BBB) is a political party in the Holy Church of Joe Biden formed by Zenta I, Zics I and Dacifer. It is the only Joshuan Progressive party in the church. Following the party's defeat in the 2021 First Period Council Seat 2 Special Election the Chairman of the party Zics advocated for the abolition of the Council in favor of a branch in which all Bidenists participated simular to the goals of the reformed Bishop's Circle under Popes Joshua I and Jackson I during late 2018 and early 2019.

## 2021 First Period Council Seat 2 Special Election

The 2021 First Period Council Seat 2 Special Election is the first election that the Big Biden Barty participated in. They ran Dacifer a founding member of their party. Dacifer would end up losing the but the election as extremely close which worried the old guard New Progressive Conservative Party (NPCP) enough that they merged with the Fisher Of Men Party and began drafting Article XIV.

This caused a tie and thus a runoff election had to be called. Two other candidates also ran but were unimportant to the race over all. Those candidates were Israel of Morehead who received 2.9% of the vote and Kenton 'Bruce the Shark' Jones who received no votes.

Joshua received 50%, Garret received 33.3%, Charles received 16.7%, and Jackson received no votes.
