    Just woke up lising. Pausws at 4:00 time is 9:57 am. Date is May 1/2021
    I was dreaming of them, and before I was lisening to them, other people where talking. I was at a where house dealing with boxes. I work at a home depot. Before this lady started talking in the dream, men where talking about world wars, and saying stuff. There was a man who was sending letters to a gov agency, and he was checking the original doc of pappers. I saw a technique where you scribe letters over the construction of the US or state constitution, and the real is underneath, partially able to be read, and the guy who was sending letters in to the gov was able to track down the originals. This guy in the early 1900s was able to find some original quotes just buy sending letters to the gov, and he sent letters to over state, just to get one, and I was happy to see that.
    Replacing stuff
    In the end of my dream, I remember throuwing away some cardboard into the wind, because I was like well, it decomposes. Although, God said to dress and keep the land.
    You can send letters to gov to ask and see if you can check the docs they give us with originals, and check their original filed docs of speeches and quotes with what we have. Every President has a presidental library.
    After ww2, in the warhouse in my dream, I was looking at a whole bunch of damaged pieces of wood, representing damaged vessels, ships, and entities that were damaged in war. The men and women damaged in war.

    Executive Orders are not laws. Laws apply to everyone, orders apply to those over whom the executive has authority. Therefore, Exec Orders of the Pres are presidential orders to do/not do something and apply only to the exec branch agencies; e.g. process asylum seekers in Mexico, and make them wait there for decision, instead of inside the US. Immigration issues are a Federal function, hence the Pres can order Fed Agencies on certain procedural and policy interpretation matters. Exec Orders cannot violate existing laws.

    The US government today is so tyrannical and has way more power than King George ever had. The size of government is way larger than under King George. The US constitution and the founding fathers failed in their endeavour to create a free country, the US is no longer free, and the massive US government has so much power that makes King George’s power pale in comparison. The catastrophic error of the founding fathers was to think that by separating power into different branches you would limit power, instead it increased the power of government over the people. The number of regulatory agencies is so vast that not even Stalin or Hitler were vested with this unfettered tyrannical power the US government enjoys today.

      Neither the Founding Fathers or the Constitution have failed. We the people have failed. When liars, thieves and known crooks are continually elected and reelected, there is not much more to be said.

    So if Washington District of Columbia corporation is a corporation.. And since we have are names in all capital letters so we are not a real person. And we entered into a contract and we never knew this. And they have tricked us into saying we are a United States citizen when we don’t live in the 10 mile square.. And we were born for example Nevada? So the zip code makes us in their jurisdiction.. but because we elected to gift the IRS money out of our paychecks voluntarily!! Right sure we did. The federal reserve has nothing to do with the federal government.. But we use federal reserve notes? And cheap crap for our coins. The DMV putting our names in all capital letters.. the birth certificate made us a commodity so they trade us on the stock exchange.. And they have made the right to travel. A privilege.. Because if we don’t obey the traffic laws. Wow. Driver means for hire. Traffic means commerce ., We are not supposed to be paying personnel income taxes. Unless involved in commerce. But since the federal reserve private banking corporation charges us interest on the federal reserve notes. That is not money according to definitions that are in old dictionaries.. before 1913. And we don’t get the title to our cars. They give us a certificate of title.. And the property deed binds us into a hidden federal tax lien.. So if you don’t pay your property taxes. With stuff they pay us with and they take tax the income. If you don’t pay for 3 years they can kick you out and sale your house to their friends. So you pay with income that was tax. So that’s kinda like double taxation. Then we pay gas tax. So that is triple taxation. We pay taxes on utilities.. we pay tax on stuff we purchase.. So tell me again that had a war so we can have freedom.. Ha! Freedom to steal our income.,

    You just said that we have a constitutional federal republic with a representative "democracy". You also stated that we are fortunate to live in a republic where our rights are protected. Yet, our rights are being limited by the Court system and the Republican party without regards to the Constitution and Bill of Rights. You also didn't mention that we once had 6 Supreme Court justices representing 6 districts, then 9 representing 9 districts, but today we have 13 districts and actually need to appoint judges for these additional districts. There is no "rule" for 9 justices.

      Abortion isn’t a constitutional right which is why they overruled it and allowed it to go back to the states. That is LITERALLY how a constitution federal republic with a representative democracy works lol. The power is now in the peoples hands to elect representatives that align with their viewpoints. You want abortion in your state, hit the polls in November. You have a voice, use it.
      Saying abortion is a constitutional right doesn’t make it a constitutional right, it HAS to be in the constitution. It’s not and to say it is, is make believe.
      The Supreme Court literally gave the American citizens more power and y’all are upset. They gave you more power to decide what to do with your state. So why are y’all so pissed?

      @@queenpele8623 Man, you really managed to twist that argument. Even in the Preamble to the Constitution it spells out "Union" and promote the General welfare. "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of ..." The Declaration gives us life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Of course, these are just 2 examples of the intention of the Constitution. If you cannot pursue adequate healthcare, even in another state in the Union, your rights have been violated. If you cannot access those things you need to keep yourself safe, plan your family, select your physician, become educated, and choose where and when you work then you have no liberty. You cannot say that a specific thing, like abortion, dental implants, cancer treatment, ice cream, or potato chips, is not in the Constitution and therefore you are not entitled to have them. There are many items in the Constitution that are generic and broad spectrum like "forming a perfect union" or "blessings of liberty." Freedom does not come under the guise of the Christian right determining that you have to stay married, even in an abusive situation, or that you cannot travel to another state for health care. We value our freedoms as Americans but if one segment of the population is not free but held in bondage to the State, then no one is free.

    We do live in a Democracy. just because partisan politics confuse the common individual, doesn't mean we don't have a democracy. If you vote? It's a democracy, No matter what these so-called teachers say.

      No…wrong. We live in a “Constitutionally limited Republic”. Look it up. Democracy is mob rule. Functionally, we have slid into a dirty democracy at times. But no, officially, it is a Republic LIMITED by the Constitution. That’s why Hildebeast did not (thank God) take the Presidency.

      @@scottfrommichigan7402 What in the world is that? It sounds like your using talking points that go way over your head. For further proof look up Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell's memo. Ignorance is a byproduct of this decision. That's why I can say...You really don't know what you're talking about.

      @@aaronbarnes2550, We live in a Republic that has the ability to replicate any government the viewer belies to be true. I believe we live in a Democratic Republic, I'm an Activist because I believe Americans are screwed, because of attitudes like yours. You live in a Republic, so why don't you keep your attitude to yourself, and stop trying to be an activist? You might get confused about being a Democrat, or taking part in the DEMOCRATIC ACTION. If you don't understand? Look up the Russell Bertrand Paradox.

      We have a Republic. If you choose democracy then that's your political will and your choice. Many are called but only a few are chosen and freed. Take care 😘.
