About Oathbreakers.net

Our Mission

At Oathbreakers.net, we are committed to a singular, vital mission: holding government officials accountable when they violate the rights of the citizens they swore to protect and serve.

Every official who enters public service takes an oath to uphold the Constitution and the laws of the United States. When that oath is broken, the foundation of our democracy is undermined. We believe that transparency is essential to maintaining the integrity of our institutions and protecting the rights of all Americans.

Beyond the Brady List

While the Brady List represents an important step toward accountability in law enforcement, it has significant limitations. These lists are often outdated, inconsistently maintained across jurisdictions, and limited in scope—typically covering only law enforcement officers with credibility issues that might affect their testimony in court.

Oathbreakers.net expands this concept in several crucial ways:

  • Comprehensive Coverage: We document violations by all government officials—judges, politicians, and law enforcement officers at federal, state, and local levels.
  • Timely Updates: Our platform allows for rapid documentation of incidents, ensuring the public has access to current information.
  • Evidence-Based: Each entry is supported by documentation, video evidence, or verified accounts of the incidents.

Our Commitment to Accuracy

We understand the serious nature of documenting official misconduct. Every submission to our database undergoes a rigorous verification process before publication. We require substantial evidence, cross-reference information, and maintain strict editorial standards.

Our goal is not to vilify public servants but to create a culture of accountability that ultimately strengthens our institutions. We believe that the vast majority of government officials serve with honor and integrity—which makes it all the more important to identify those who do not.

A Citizen-Powered Initiative

Oathbreakers.net is powered by concerned citizens who believe in the fundamental principles of our democracy. We are non-partisan and independent, focused solely on protecting constitutional rights and the rule of law.

We invite all Americans who witness or experience violations of rights by government officials to contribute to our database. Together, we can create a more transparent, accountable system that serves all citizens equally under the law.
