Justin Smith shares some thoughts that illustrate American
Liberty has been eroded in stealth probably since at least 1913. Friends that
is a timeframe of over a 100-years in which Americans have not paid attention.
That slow Liberty erosion has empowered America’s HUGE alphabet bureaucratic
agencies on ALL levels of government above the rule because the alphabets now
make and enforce their extra-Constitutional rules as law. The Leviathan-bureaucrats
are so brazenly powerful they openly defied the rule of law to install a
lawlessly elected government. I pray Justin’s thoughts from near the end of
this essay inspires you to action rather than to live on in complacent
ignorance:
“It's a fight that will require leaders
who can galvanize Conservatives, seize the day and bring them together in order
to overcome the growing tyranny in our country and press on to ensure that the
forces of Truth, Life, Liberty and God emerge victorious on the other side of
this war, in which failure is not any option whatsoever, not for a people
resolved to accept nothing less than complete and total Freedom and Liberty for
themselves, their families and all those whom they love.” – Justin O.

Government Force Supplants the Rule of Law
The Real Price of Freedom and Liberty
By Justin O. Smith
Sent 5/6/2021 2:03 AM
Americans know, when something bad is happening, and if
anyone looks hard at this current debacle that has been building for years, it
is obvious that there is this Huge Power holding America hostage, that's
incomprehensible to many of my countrymen. We see there isn't any truly
effective way in the halls of Congress and the state legislatures to properly
influence it, let alone stop it and its destructive machinations. And, in the
process of fighting this fight, we keep in the forefront of our minds and our
hearts that the only thing most Americans want is to just be free, to respect
other people and have those individuals respect them; we want to be protected
by the law, in order that we may do those things we most desire and to enjoy an
abundance of Freedom and Liberty.
But most Americans can't slog through all the nit-pick,
nitty-gritty plethora of laws and regulations the government has built over the
centuries. It’s as hard as anything to battle against the Monster -- the
Leviathan -- that's coming our way, as we fight to restore and
preserve freedom and liberty.
American freedom-loving Conservatives, Christians and Independents
feel a resentment in their gut, that they are left defenseless, short of a
great financial cost to filter through all the legalistic jargon, the terms and
the reams of U.S. codes.
Our rights are rights -- Inalienable and God-given -- and
we shouldn't have to buy our rights again through one legal battle after the
next, one major hassle after another. The American people shouldn't be put in
the position of being in a constant battle with Big Centralized Government --
or any government -- that has the expertise and the major finances behind
it, in order to "win" our rights again in any court, or eventually on
any battlefield again, when that day finally arrives.
Look at the number of times we hear of stories of regular
citizens who fought the IRS or the ATF and beat them at a heavy cost to
themselves. We hear them in the retelling saying, "I beat them, but it
took me ten years (sometimes they may say 20 or 30 years) and it cost me
twenty-thousand dollars", and for many of us, we are left shaking our
heads, because that sounds almost like a prison sentence. Twenty or thirty
years and twenty-thousand dollars, or more, and one is left asking, "Who
is the real winner here", because they still get us anyway one looks at
the situation.
One may have won, but they're worn out and nearly physically
and mentally broke by the fight, nearly literally "dead right". It's
enough to sicken any real American Patriot to their very core and their own
righteous conscience.
Any American currently paying good attention full well
understands the nation is on shaky ground these days in many respects and in
many segments of our society. Americans are rightfully worried over government
power growing exponentially towards tyranny and grabbing so much power that
directly serves to negate, eradicate and trample on our freedom and individual
liberty, to the point that U.S. citizens can be spied upon without any
adherence to the 4th Amendment and people can be arrested and held for
virtually any reason chosen by the arresting government agent.
Americans are told so many times, by so-called "Conservatives"
and establishment Republicans, that all you can do is beg the Tyrant to change to
the point that they feel as though they've been kicked in the gut by the
Government Boot again. We are told that we can commit our life to a long,
slow trudge uphill in an attempt to reform the Leviathan and set the
nation back on course to the Original Intent of the Founders and those
traditions and principles upon which America was founded, and to hear
so-called "leaders" take such a defeatist tact is disheartening and
enough to give one a sinking feeling, one of drowning in an ocean's
tempest.

Is this really the price of Freedom and Liberty? Is this our
only chance? Maybe to get elected and go to D,C., where we aren't supposed to
own a firearm according to the many D.C. officials, in order to stop tyranny?
It's close to an overwhelming mission to consider for the average U.S.
citizen.
There's a miles long list of things we can do that have been
suggested over the decades, by many politicians and pundits, that will serve to
secure our rights more firmly in the future, but they all seem to pretty much
amount to keep bowing and scraping, begging them and kissing their rings and
maybe they will finally listen one day - if there's enough of us confronting
them. Well, here's what is what in this matter. That doesn't really resonate
with me or any Free Born American's spirit, our hearts and our minds, simply
because however right they may be, their way goes against the grain of
everything it means to be free, to be an individual able to live by way of an
abundance of liberty and everything it means to be an American, in the truest
sense of the name.
Many of us still hold knowledge that has seemingly been long
forgotten by most of America, that may appear unconventional means to secure Freedom
but are means that have existed throughout all of human history.
There are many things for every American to consider, in
regard to our massive government, this massive Beast we're attempting to reform
and draw back in line with the Principles of Freedom. One must understand one's
enemy, in order to understand their mechanisms and machinations and how we
arrived at this point that we are virtually at the mercy of an out-of-control
government, that acts as though we are here to serve the State, rather than
acknowledge the fact that the government bureaucrats and elected officials are
here to serve us, the American people.
Anyone who would attempt to take away the rights that are
granted to us all by God is an enemy to us all. Anybody issuing executive
orders without any basis in statute and U.S. code, or a state code, and creates
"law" from whole cloth, from nothing at all, on their arbitrary words
and diktats alone, is an enemy of the American people. Anybody, who
stands on their own authority to deny us our rights and demands we obey because
they said so, are tyrants advancing tyranny in our country, and they are the
enemy from within and the enemy of good, decent, righteous American Patriots,
the U.S. Constitution and this America we love so well.
This places a large number of people in our
"enemies" category, but that's alright, because the truth is the
truth and it must be recognized, if we are to right this nation and restore
America.
Let's look at the money situation, since this is the main
tool of tyranny. The manipulation of our economic system and our currency
was the start of getting America so far off base and far removed from Her
Original Principles. And it all comes down to legal theory and what Americans
allowed to be presented as "law" and enforced as such, by way of
illegitimate means.
The Federal Reserve is neither "federal"
or a "reserve" in any true or legitimate legal sense of the words,
since it is actually a cooperative of private banks that are named after their
best customer. They are allowed to print up money out of thin air -- to
essentially print trillions of dollars from thin air -- and then turn around
and loan it to the federal government with interest. That's a damn great deal
for them, and it's how they acquire so much of their own wealth, in large part;
the Income Tax Act was passed in 1913 [Blog Editor: Actually the 16th
Amendment passed Congress in 1909 and ratified by enough States in 1913],
at the same time the Federal Reserve Act was passed, and it serves to pay them
to some significant degree, too.
On Christmas Eve 1913 there wasn't even a proper quorum of
legislators on hand to legitimately pass these malignant, malevolent mechanisms
of the Communists and Fascists into law. The entire affair was criminal as all
hell, but to be expected from the fascist in the White House at the time,
Woodrow Wilson, who was a strong proponent for Marxist and globalist
machinations of the day.
[Blog Editor: In 1913 there were 48 States. This means
there were 96 Senators. According to Senate rules a quorum is plus-one of half
the Senate. So today in 2021 at least 51 Senators need to be present to vote
meaning something could pass the Senate a 26 to 25 vote. In 1913 the Senate quorum
would have been 49 Senators present to vote. The actual vote passing The
Federal Reserve Act was indeed fishy but not for a lack of quorum. The last
paragraph of a Senate.gov
post on the Federal Reserve Act reads as:
“On December 23, 1913, the
Senate adopted the conference report by a vote of 43 to 25, with every Democrat
present voting for the measure and all but four Republicans voting against it.
(Twenty-seven senators were “paired” or chose not to vote.) Most senators
immediately rushed to Union Station to catch trains home for the holidays,
while the chief sponsors went to the White House. President Wilson signed the
Glass-Owens Act at 6:00 p.m. He used four pens, then gave one to each of the
leading sponsors. Wilson commented that he was not accustomed to using a series
of pens. The Democratic whip, Senator
J. Hamilton Lewis of Illinois, responded, “The bill itself was
made in installments, Mr. President.” “Yes,” said Wilson, “and very slowly.”
The Oval Office filled with cheers for what became the most lasting legislative
accomplishment of the Wilson administration.”
Doing a little math. At 68 Senators were present in the voting
process. That is well over the quorum threshold for 2013. The fishy part is 27
Senators DID NOT VOTE. BUT if those 27 Senators would have hung around to vote
and joined the 25 who voted against the Federal Reserve Act. That would have
been 52 nays sending The Fed into non-existence. SEE ALSO: Debunking

An unimaginable harm to America was set in motion that year
that would play out over the next century.
Printing up money from nothing is a terrible idea from a
multitude of lines of reason, starting with the fact that dollars react to
supply and demand, just like any commodity item or retail item in the market.
When the number of dollars in circulation is increased, the value of each one
of those dollar bills decreases. The value lost in those bills, or the
retirement account many Americans rely upon, is value transferred to whoever printed
those dollars, whether it's the U.S. Treasury -- as it once was -- a
counterfeiter, or the Federal Reserve Bank, as it stands today.
This is the primary reason that our Founding Fathers, in
their infinite wisdom, wrote in the U.S. Constitution that no state shall make
anything other than gold or silver coin a payment in tender for their debts.
This is brilliant, because gold and silver coins can't be churned out on a
printing press; America would be better off, if these criminals were actually
printing our currency today, but they are simply holding down the zero key on
their computers until they have enough of them to suit their spending
projections and agenda, and they simply send them out in an email.
The end result is enough hard-earned dollars and enough
value has to be stolen from the American people in a significant quantity to
make that email balance, to make it worth something, to authorize people to
spend those new dollars they've just injected into the economy. Once these new
dollars enter the economy, they cause prices to rise.
Once one examines the national debt as something one's
children and grandchildren are going to be stuck paying off for many long
years, it is more than enough to make anyone angry. But there's also another
angle and dynamic in action with the national debt. In recent years, the
government simply prints a massive new batch of money, destroying the current
value of the dollar, while making more dollars necessary to do the same amount
of work in the economy, due to supply and demand, and prices rise accordingly.
And so, in a few years, when a Big Mac is $29.99, it's just one sign of how we
all end up paying the national debt, one way or another, in the here and now or
on down the road where its effects are much more significant, dire and
destructive to the nation on the whole.
It's all pretty much an underhanded way to generate funds
for Big Centralized Government and the Big Banks, because If the federal
government had attempted to raise taxes to match their spending, they would
have had a rebellion on their hands many years ago. This is essentially a
backdoor method of taxation.
For example, say one had a hundred thousand dollars in real
capital and assets and the government sent them a tax bill for 30 percent. One
might get pretty hot over seeing such a bill. So, rather than try to collect
extra taxes in so obvious a fashion, our federal government, through the
Federal Reserve Bank, simply prints a bunch of money, expanding the amount of
money in circulation to meet their target, and it reduces the purchasing power
of one's dollars by the thirty percent they sought.
Whether the government bills one $30,000 on a $100,000 or
drives down the purchasing power of the dollar by thirty percent, it still robs
the American people of the ability to redeem their currency for the full,
proper and real asset value of the currency for a valuable commodity item or
service that one may want. They basically tax us in a manner that doesn't so
readily hit us right between the eyes.
Not only does this system weaken the individual in order to
strengthen the government, but then they take the money they've stolen from us
all and give it back to the states, with strings attached. The Feds dangle this
money in front of the State, basically telling them, we will give you this
money, if you will do this one thing and another to the people of your state;
we are all currently witnessing this in the Education Department and the Biden
administration's advocacy of the racist Critical
Race Theory and an agenda to target all conservative and Christian
white people, standing in opposition to his Marxist/Maoist policies.
Once the State signs on with the program, it is essentially
working for whatever agenda the money is tied to funding and implementing. This
is the precise manner that the federal government has acted as an empire, under
which all people serve it, rather than a republic in the service of a Free
people with actual and very real rights by way of the Bill of Rights and as
seen in Nature and under Natural Law created by God.
God gave every human being a right to life, liberty and
property and a corresponding obligation to defend those rights, as an
individual and through the establishment of governments to do the same.
Today, as our government and the elitist oligarchs in
control of it have become greatly distanced from the real everyday Americans on
the streets, and under normal circumstances, if our republic were functioning
as envisioned by the Founders, their power should have been diminished by the
people themselves, as any part of sound reasoning and under the rule of law.
However, with the manipulation of the flow of money, where the Federal Reserve
can just snatch the money away from the people and give it straight to the
federal Government, the republic itself is severely damaged and ceases to
function as a republic.
This has made America more closely resemble an empire, where
the chain of command follows the flow of money, and suddenly, all Americans
find that the most far away, the most distant, the most inaccessible to 'We the
People' of the federal and state governments, or even the international
concerns and interests some of them, such as John Kerry, the Climate Czar,
serve are telling us what our rights are and aren't, in the manner of one
granting privilege rather than administering actual codes created for and by
the people themselves.
Basically, the federal government is robbing the American
people blind and giving the states a cut, to cooperate with them, too often
against the best interests of the American people, just as we've all seen
unfold via the COVID hoax and the exponential growth of power as it manifested itself
on all levels of government, through mask mandates and mandatory statewide and
nationwide lockdowns, along with the current push that is leaning towards
mandatory COVID vaccinations. The powers-that-be don't dictate the terms
of how and when the American people are to be subjugated -- no -- they just buy
our supposed "representatives" and have them do the dirty work of
betraying the American people.
As an aside, one should note they do this in all the Western
nations and any nation that utilizes Big Centralized Banking, fiat currency and
currency manipulation to control its economy.
They bribe our states away from us and make our states
betray us. They give our sheriffs' departments a bunch of federal money; and
when we go there to tell the sheriff we elected that we demand protection from
those who would trample on our rights, no matter what they call themselves or
how they are organized, i.e. the domestic terrorists of Black Lives Matter and
Antifa and the foot soldiers of the Democratic Party -- since the sheriffs'
department is the one closest to the people of each community -- too often a
reluctant sheriff is found, because the very people we seek protection from are
the people providing a large amount of that sheriff's funding.
No better examples of this dynamic are seen than through the
events that surrounded the standoff at the Bundy
Ranch and the standoff at Malheur
National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon, where LaVoy Finicum met his
death by murder at the hands of the FBI and the Oregon State Patrol, in his
fight to secure states' rights and stop the illegal seizure of states' lands by
the federal government; one local county's sheriff was opposed to Finicum and
the group of men he represented, while another nearby sheriff was very sympathetic
and was going to meet with Finicum the day he was shot and killed.
Now, many communities find themselves faced with a sheriff
with split loyalties, because we're no longer a free republic; we're a
monetized, inflationary empire.
Many 1950s socialists, like John Maynard Keynes, were the
drivers behind this current insane monetary and economic theory and the
inflation associated with it. Keynes even acknowledged that robbing this money
form people hurts them, but he justified it as a necessary means to an end,
saying that the government's use of that money in the economy actually boosted
the economy and served the people better, in the long run.
This is what has been taught in American business schools
for decades, and the greatest percentage of those schools have been subsidized
and funded for decades by those same fiat dollars that are creating America's
woes. Naturally, these schools are toeing the line to keep the money spigot
open and flowing.
However, the reality of this Keynesian monetary theory
reveals that when the federal government robs the American people of their real
capital, this action in no way creates investment, as suggested by socialist
economists. It creates malinvestment,
because it is an investment that has grown around artificial government dollars
rather than a natural demand in the market. And so businesses grow around this
stolen money that is unstable, traveling from place to place, and it creates a
bubble -- a stock bubble, a housing bubble, a tech bubble.
All of these bubbles that America has seen burst over the
past three decades have had their origins in this injected stolen money. Now
why is this good for politicians? This is good for politicians, because they
can inject this money where their friends, their cronies, need it; they can
inject it where they need votes and where they need cash donors for their
campaigns. And this is the reason politicians love this system.
However, the bubbles also place politicians between a rock
and a hard spot very often, as they also catch grief from foreign holders of
U.S. dollars, because now they're losing money. This prompts the halt to the
cash injections and brings about the bursting of the bubble and the recession
that follows.
But if one looks at a high school textbook today, students
are being taught that "depressions are causeless anomalies". That's
FDR era bullshit. This is the state of our monetary system.
And, regardless of any policy or law one wishes to analyze,
America will also find that our Senators and Representatives aren't nearly as
powerful, as many of us would like to think that they are. Whenever one
attempts to talk to any of these elected officials to get down to the hard
brass tacks of why it seems to be such an ordeal for Americans to retain their
freedoms and liberties, it becomes apparent that many of them are afraid of the
Alphabet Agencies -- the IRS, the FBI, the CIA, the ATF, the ECA, the DEA and
any others I may have missed. Taken together, these agencies very nearly act as
little governments unto themselves, and very often, they make their own rules
and regulations that have the full weight of "law", effectively
circumventing the normal three branches of government, through what many of us
recognize as administrative tyranny.
Ask any federal employee of an agency or a bureau, what an
agency or a bureau is and what is its real purpose and many times one will be
met by blank silence, or a flatly stated "I don't know". It is a
difficult thing to understand just what "service" the Internal
Revenue Service provides to the American people, since it would actually seem
to have been created purely to serve the interests of the centralized federal
government. So many federal employees haven't any real clue as to the real
mission behind their respective agencies. But it would be most interesting to
find who they are actually accountable to, since we saw several of them flatly
refuse to obey legal and lawful orders from President Donald J. Trump during
his tenure as President of the United States of America.
How is this even possible in America today, in the 21st
century?
These bureaus, agencies and unconstitutional species of
government, they consolidate all three functions of the three branches of
government into one. They create regulations that have the force of
"law". They have their own enforcers who will come out and knock a
citizen's door to the floor, if one isn't following their rules, regulations
and edicts. So right there we see the legislative and executive functions in
action. Then, once a person is dragged out in zip-ties, that person goes before
them for a review, before it actually goes to the actual judiciary and a
"real" court, and in essence, this is how they circumvent the checks
and balances of our government.
This is a consolidation of all government powers and a
parallel government and its administrative tyrannical controls, that are so
entrenched and so powerful in our federal government and state governments too,
our Congressmen and Senators are very often afraid of it too. What more proof
does anyone need than what we witnessed from the FBI and DOJ, weaponized under
Obama, that engaged in an outright counterintelligence operation and sedition,
espionage and treason against a duly-elected sitting U.S. President. Even the
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is so afraid that he crapped his pants at
the thought of hearing anything remotely related to the Theft of the 2020
Election, so afraid that he wouldn't even do his absolute Constitutional duty
to hear Texas's grievance over the election results and that massive fraud that
occurred in states, such as Pennsylvania, Georgia, Minnesota and Arizona.
Congress is very nearly held neutered and impotent these
days as real legislators. They even went so far as to certify an
illegitimate election result founded on illegally acquired Electoral College
Votes, on the false premise that President Trump's supporters were trying to
halt the results on January 6, 2021; when the civil unrest broke out and the
Capitol Building was breached. Several Senators had already stated the election
was stolen, but then backed away from that position after the Capitol unrest;
that had nothing to do with the validity of the election results and those
Senators' actions were from fear of reprisals. If the election was
considered stolen prior to January 6th, a group of people's disruptive actions
didn't make that any less true that day or the next day, or a four months
later. This is making the role of Congress very nearly ceremonial, reducing
them to a sideshow at the local carnival.
Americans must realize now more than ever that a greater
hidden power within our government, whether it's being directed by the military
industrial complex, the CIA or whatever this entity called "the Deep
State" may be, is something that was never behind the intentions of
America's Founders. Americans must face this and reckon with it now,
soon,
How many times have we witnessed Americans going up against
the federal government, or even a state government, with everything researched
and documented and all their Constitutional arguments more than sound and in
full order, only to be denied relief or the victory based on the logic and
substance of their accurate legal brief and presentation of their case?
Americans often appeal to the government based on the rule
of law, calling them on the carpet and before a court, based on logic and the
Constitution, all ironed out and perfect -- appealing to them -- on the merits
of law, and they still remain unheard and without satisfactory redress of their
grievances or any real satisfactory resolution, that gives any of us the real
sense that our government could give two hoots and a red cent about our Bill of
Rights and our Inalienable God-given Rights.
We see people appear before the 9th Circuit Court of
Appeals, desiring to go all the way to the Supreme Court, only to hear some
leftist activist judge say "We're not going to hear your case", and
upon questioning them with "Why not", one hears, "because you
don't have standing" or some other disingenuous lying-ass, two-faced
arbitrary tyrannically motivated reason, much as the Supreme Court had the
audacity to tell Texas it didn't have standing in its case against the State of
Pennsylvania.
This isn't an oversimplification or an exaggeration. This is
what they do and then it's simply "next please" for them.
One can have the entire case laid out perfectly from a
Constitutional standpoint, for instance in the case of the 16th Amendment and
the IRS being and unconstitutional entity and illegally "passed"
piece of legislation. One can show how the Income Tax was never properly
ratified and it's an unconstitutional act that came about through a temporary
war measure and place all the pertinent laws before the Court, laid out in
perfect fashion, via U.S. code and "the rule of law", and still one
can lose, depending on one's legal team and the judge on any given day.
And there's quite a few people who have actually fought
paying Income tax based on these laws, with seventeen prevailing, but there are
many more people who haven't fought this or any other unconstitutional edict
based on our laws, because -- and here's the secret -- our government no
longer operates under "the rule of law".
Our government operates under the rule of force. It's not
the rule of law but rather the threat of force that guides our domestic legal
codes and their application and resolution these days.
Look at the Oxford Dictionary and one finds the meaning of
"terrorism" to be "the unlawful use of violence and
intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political
aims." Wow ... if that doesn't describe the Biden administration
perfectly, I don't know what does, especially now that they are targeting white
conservatives, Christians and independents across the board as "radical
extremists" and having Gen. Austin combing through the U.S. Military for
"white supremacists".
Too many Americans submit to the government out of the fear
of the possible consequences, while many others submit, because they believe if
it's "the law" they must do so, and if there is any discrepancy later
found, it will be corrected in short order. And that's exactly where we've arrived
-- the rule of force supplanting the rule of law. And that's a terrible
realization for any American to awaken to understand.
Fear it or welcome it, but our government is not going to
hear us until we speak in their language, the language of force. And while this
doesn't necessarily mean violence, make no mistake that I will kill in order to
remain a free man and defend freedom and liberty for America's children and
their children's children.
We often hear many pundits ask someone "would you die
for liberty?", when the right question to ask is "would you kill for
liberty?" If one will kill for liberty, it goes without saying that
they are prepared to die for liberty.
However, force doesn't necessarily have to be violence.
It can be as simple as directing and pushing the government into submission to
the law, through non-violent means, such as hassling it in between such a
rock and a hard spot that it has to respond in the affirmative to one's
demands.
One may not even have to do such a thing.
But we certainly won't beat them at the polls because the
people cannot overcome such an overwhelming force and votes that were bought
and purchased through money that was stolen from us, in the first place.
And the powers-that-be know this. They know that all they
have to do is to steal enough money from a broad enough base -- or just mail
out ballots everywhere without any names associated with them for verification
purposes -- and give it to a big enough base to secure their re-election.
They've figured it out and refined it over the decades, and they just keep
sending the American populace back through those same turnstiles repeatedly,
like a tired re-run of an old B movie, telling us to "vote 'em out of
you're angry"; and in the meantime, they laugh behind closed doors
knowing they have an army of corrupt individuals awaiting their backing and
payoffs to set them up to be "elected" (read "installed")
next.
As long as they keep the people focused on this single
recourse of "vote 'em out", they know they can keep the scam going
for years. And if anyone in the right circle to see this as a fact speaks up to
say, "this isn't right", they soon find themselves back on the
outside looking in.
This is the reason so many Americans feel that dull aching
pain in their heart and a sinking feeling in their gut. They see the
overwhelming nature of the Leviathan than confronts them and threatens
everything in their lives that they hold dear. It's as if they are tasked with
throwing themselves in front of a speeding locomotive in order to try to stop
it, knowing it's not going to work, before they ever do it.
Americans have sensed this for many long years, even if they
never heard anyone speak of it before today.
Without a doubt, America is in dire straits and a more than
difficult situation, as the calls are going out across the land for Her Patriots
to rush to Her aid and Her defense. She needs Her heroes, wherever they are to
be found.
Americans have gone through an exhausting process since
2000, and today many of us find ourselves hating the situation we find
ourselves living in the here and now, for whatever the reason. We've been
handed one insurmountable challenge after another, feeling somewhat defeated at
times, as we try to fight our way out of the dark hard place we are at this
time in history. It's time for us to rise up and be all that history demands us
to be for the sake of our children and their children's children and all
generations left to come.
American Patriots are facing the most important mission of
their lives, in stopping the current onslaught of the Democratic Party
Communists under Joe Biden and the tyranny that is associated with him and his
people. Bonds are being formed, as we see this is a fight that may actually
require many of us to place our lives on the line, and there's a good chance
many of us won't live to see the final days of this battle for Freedom in
America. It's a fight that will require leaders who can
galvanize Conservatives, seize the day and bring them together in order to
overcome the growing tyranny in our country and press on to ensure that the
forces of Truth, Life, Liberty and God emerge victorious on the other side of
this war, in which failure is not any option whatsoever, not for a people
resolved to accept nothing less than complete and total Freedom and Liberty for
themselves, their families and all those whom they love.
Anyone who fears dying in the defense of Americans' Freedom
will be useless in this fight. For this to succeed, each of us must accept,
that as much as any of us want to live to see a free America once again, some
of us may die in the coming fight, that is certain to turn into a full-blown
hot civil war in the not-too-distant future. Fight to live another day, fight
for Freedom and Liberty, but fear not stepping on across that narrow divide
between life and death with the stakes set so high for all who love this
America so dearly.

Thank You, John for another fine effort.
ReplyDeleteI suppose I didn't make it completely clear in this piece, but my mention of a lack of quorum was primarily in regards to the Income Tax, not the Federal Reserve Act, which You made the focus of that observation. I just assumed that many would already be familiar with the fact surrounding the Income Tax.

The Michael Ruark link is a good explanation throwing the Income Tax 16th Amendment into question. To read it you may have copy and paste link into a browser.

ReplyDeleteJustin provides more 16th Amendment info in which from this comment section you'll probably have to copy and paste the link to a browser.
DeleteThe Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States was never ratified by a majority of the sovereign States.
ReplyDeleteThis is the Amendment that allegedly entitled the Federal Agent (government) in the federal territory of Washington, D.C. and their private collection company, the IRS, to collect "income tax" as falsely declared to be ratified in February 1913.
After an exhaustive year long search of legislative records in 48 sovereign states (Alaska & Hawaii were not admitted into the Union until after 1913), Bill Benson wrote his fact findings in The Law That Never Was, Vols. 1 & 2. He was able to unequivocally prove that the 16th Amendment was never Constitutionally, properly, or legally ratified. The only record of the 16th Amendment having been confirmed was a proclamation made by the Secretary of State Philander Knox on February 25, 1913, wherein he simply declared it to be "in effect", but never stating it was lawfully ratified.
Even if the 16th Amendment were properly ratified, according to Article 1, Section 9 of the Constitution, it has always been unconstitutional for the U.S. Federal Government to directly tax We the People in their property, wages, salaries, or earnings. The judges of the U.S. Supreme Court rejected any claims that the 16th Amendment changed the constitutional limits on direct taxes in Brushaber v. Union Pacific R.R. Co., 240 U.S. 1, when they ruled that it "created no new power of taxation" and that it "did not change the constitutional limitations which forbid any direct taxation of individuals".
Alleged defects in the ratification of the Income Tax Amendment
According to the investigations of Bill Benson and others, the following defects were found in the ratification of the Income Tax Amendment by the 48 states then existing, three-fourths or 36 of which were needed to ratify it:
01 - Not ratified by state legislature, and so reported
02 - Not ratified by state legislature, but reported as ratified
03 - Missing or incomplete evidence of ratification, but reported as ratified
04 - Failure of Governor or other official to sign, although required by State Constitution
05 - Other violation of State Constitution in ratification process
06 - Other procedural irregularity making ratification doubtful
07 - Approval, but with change in wording, accepted as ratification of original version
08 - Approval, but with change in spelling, accepted as ratification of original version
09 - Approval, but with change in capitalization, accepted as ratification of original version
10 - Approval, but with change in punctuation, accepted as ratification of original version
... Since 36 states were required to ratify, the failure of 13 to ratify would be fatal to the amendment, and this occurs within the first three defects, arguably the most serious. Even if we were to ignore defects of spelling, capitalization, and punctuation, we would still have only two states which successfully ratified.
