Major General Paul E. Vallely (r. 1991) was born 11/29/1939
which means he is circa 84 years old. I got the date from usually Left-Wing
Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_E._Vallely)
which has a decent beginning bio before slanting to the Left later by
attempting taint the intro-info by associating him with Conservative (actually
PATRIOT) associations.
I want to mention his age because a lot of writing
attributed to him still hits Online publications. Frankly, I have a suspicion
he has a ghost-writer because of his age. I could be wrong though. Whether it’s
actually Gen. Vallely or a ghost writer, I typically agree with the views attributed
to him.
For more Patriotic background on Gen. Vallely, note he is
the Founder of Stand Up
America US Foundation in 2005. Here is that websites Bio: https://standupamericaus.org/about-sua/mg-vallely/
AND the website Military Hall of Honor
has small blurb on Gen. Vallely’s military service: https://militaryhallofhonor.com/honoree-record.php?id=228541
AND NOW TO THE POINT of this post. Gen. Vallely has a
Substack Page attributed to him called Paul’s Newsletter. Thanks
to a Hat Tip from Rogue Nation
Eternal Militia posting on the Xephula Group Introduce Yourself,
I became aware of a Gen. Vallely post entitled, “The Coalition of Red
States”. The post is a rallying cry for Americans to resist Dem-Marxist
Tyranny by pushing citizens in each State to push for the Federal Government to
honor (a kind of OR ELSE) the Original Intent of the 10th
Amendment.
Amendment 10 to the U.S. Constitution (Part of the Bill
of Rights. Text from usconstitution.net):
“The powers not delegated to the
United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are
reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

PLEASE! I need more Patriots to step up. I need Readers
to chip in $5 - $10 - $25 - $50 - $100. PLEASE YOUR generosity is NEEDED.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States
respectively or to the people.
It is well beyond time for the Conservative Red States and
their Governors to stand up and step forward to exert their powers under the
10th Amendment and challenge and overturn the unconstitutional, overreaching,
illegal acts of the Federal government. Our states are being invaded by hordes
of illegal border crossers funded and supported by the Biden White House, his
Department of Homeland Security, the Mexican Cartels, and the Chinese Communist
Party.
The Stand Up America US Foundation has launched a demand by
the people for the Red State Governors to be formed immediately, meet, and
develop a strategic plan to save the Republic. It must be done now and well
before the 2024 elections.
Because the Tenth Amendment concerns
the relationship between the federal government’s powers and those powers
reserved to the states, it is sometimes invoked—implicitly or explicitly—in
cases exploring the limits of Congress’s various enumerated powers. These
decisions are primarily addressed elsewhere in the Constitution,
Annotated under the enumerated federal power.
The key issue in the Tenth Amendment doctrine,
as such, is whether the Amendment imposes affirmative limitations on federal
power beyond the limits inherent in the various enumerated powers themselves.
In other words, assuming that an enumerated power supports congressional action
in a particular area, may the Tenth Amendment (or
the federalism principles it confirms) render the legislation beyond federal
power? And, if so, what are the contours of the limitations that the Tenth Amendment imposes?
The Supreme Court’s jurisprudence on these questions has not
followed a straight line. The Court has sometimes stated that the Tenth Amendment lacks
substantive constitutional content and “does not operate as a limitation upon
the powers, express or implied, delegated to the national
government.” At other times, the Court has found affirmative
federalism limitations in the Amendment, invalidating federal statutes “not
because Congress lacked legislative authority over the subject matter, but
because those statutes violated the principles of federalism contained in
the Tenth Amendment.”
The Supreme Court’s Tenth Amendment jurisprudence
has gone through several cycles. In the 19th century, Chief Justice John
Marshall’s landmark opinion in McCulloch v. Maryland rejected the
notion that the Tenth Amendment denied
implied or incidental powers to the federal government, adopting an approach to
assessing congressional power focused not on the Tenth Amendment itself
but the larger constitutional
context.
In the early 20th century, the Court relied on the Tenth Amendment to
strike down various economic regulations as invasive of the police power
reserved to the states by the Amendment. Beginning in the late 1930s, many
of these decisions were overruled or limited as the Court embraced a broader
conception of Congress’s Commerce Clause power and the view that the Tenth Amendment does
not bar federal action necessary and proper to exercise federal power.
Tenth Amendment doctrine
then laid largely dormant until the mid-1970s. In National League of
Cities v Usery, the Court relied on the Amendment to hold that Congress may not
use its commerce power to “directly displace the States’ freedom to structure
integral operations in areas of traditional governmental
functions.” Less than a decade later, in Garcia v. San Antonio
Metropolitan Transit Authority, however, the Court overruled the National
League of Cities as “unworkable” and “inconsistent with established
principles of federalism” while implying that the Tenth Amendment lacked
any judicially enforceable protections for state sovereignty.
In the 1990s, the Court changed course again, holding
in New York v. United States that the Tenth Amendment prohibits
Congress from “commandeering” the states—directly compelling them to enact or
enforce a federal regulatory program. The resulting “anti-commandeering”
doctrine has been the subject of a line of Supreme Court cases continuing to
the present.
Starting with the 2000
United States presidential election, the terms "red state"
and "blue state" have referred to U.S. states whose
voters vote predominantly for one party — the Republican
Party in red and the Democratic
Party in blue states — in presidential and other statewide
elections.[1] By
contrast, states where the vote fluctuates between the Democratic and
Republican candidates are "swing states"
or "purple states". Examining patterns within states reveals that the
reversal of the two parties' geographic bases has happened at the state level. [Blog
Editor: Gen. Vallely did not include a footnote number two. Based on the
embedded links to Notes 1 & 2 and the content of the previous sentence,

2] Still, it is more complicated locally, with many of the most
significant changes associated with urban-rural divides.
Incumbent senators.
Red and blue denote two Republican or two Democratic senators, respectively.
Purple states denote one Republican and one Democrat from the state. Light blue
stripes denote one independent senator (that caucuses with the Democrats).
All states contain considerable liberal and conservative
voters (i.e., they are "purple") and only appear blue or red on the
electoral map because of the winner-take-all system
used by most states in the Electoral
College.[3] However,
the perception of some states as "blue" and some as "red"
was reinforced by a degree of partisan stability from election to election —
from the 2016
presidential election to the 2020
presidential election, only five states changed "color";
and as of 2020,
35 out of 50 states have voted for the same party in every presidential
election since the red-blue terminology was popularized in 2000, with only 15
having swung between the
2000 presidential election and the
2020 election. Although many red and blue states stay in the
same category for long, they may switch from blue to red or red to blue over
time.
To bring our national establishment to heel and to counter
provocative actions taken by foreign and domestic enemies, we must:
1. Establish honest 2024 and
future elections. Paper ballots, voter ID, same-day voting, and voting systems
that cannot connect to the Internet or any outside control or influence must be
set up. Election Fraud or interference is a criminal act. We cannot allow
foreign governments to control our elections.
2. Update the definition
of Treason to specifically include non-kinetic war,
including Mind War, Unrestricted War, Cyber
Warfare, and Bio-War. We must end foreign
donations to elected officials through family or corporate connections. Severe
criminal penalties for this new form of treason need to be enacted urgently.
3. We must stop the security
state from being weaponized against political opponents. NSA and CIA activity
against citizens must be halted pending an overhaul of the system. FBI kill
teams must be held accountable. Raids on churches, priests, and ministers must
stop.
4. Government censorship or
propaganda must be banned. There is no “Ministry of Truth.” This is not
Stalin’s Russia. Obama’s legislation allowing propaganda in the United States
must be canceled. It smothers the First Amendment.
5. The stolen 2020 Election
and the J6 coup need to be investigated entirely (with criminal penalties)
before the next election. The CCP elected Joe Biden, not the American people.
6. Borders must be
controlled, and dangerous illegals must be deported or jailed.
7. Enact legislation and an
Amendment to our Constitution prohibiting any foreign influence, treaty, or
Executive Order that will endanger or weaken our national sovereignty. We also
need local militias and the 2A to ensure “law and order” and personal safety.
These actions must be taken before the 2024 elections.
Failure to do so should also be considered a TREASON against our republic.
Thomas Jefferson once stated, “Eternal Vigilance is the
Price of Liberty.”
