End NAFTA, Tell Senator Leahy

Staff Writer,  DL Mullan
NAFTA / Senate
__________________________

Senator Partick Leahy was interviewed today on CNN about President Trump's new bilateral agreement with Mexico. Stating in part that not including Canada was petty. 

Here is my rebuttal on the Senator's Contact Form:

Senator Patrick Leahy: 

“Excluding Canada, NAFTA won’t pass the Senate. I mean, the only way it passed last time was because Canada was part of it. It sort of falls in the same category, we’re all waiting for Mexico to pay for a wall. … Canada is our greatest trading partner. It comes across as petty.”

Here’s a clue, Senator Leahy: I WANT NAFTA REPEALED. SHREDDED. BURNED IN THE TORCH OF LADY LIBERTY FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

Free Trade agreements are not about economic give and take; they are about merging countries together under an unelected bureaucracy. No thank you. You can keep your superstate and the treason that is named: Globalism.

I don’t want it. No one who understands NAFTA wants the agreement to remain intact.

I realize I am not from your state, but I heard your interview and this rebuke is my answer: the only thing petty is dragging Americans and the world down into the mud just to make some spoiled imbecile richer. Globalism has destroyed lives and livelihoods.

Time for a new strategy. Instead of stomping on people how about government officials learn to bring people up. It’s always been my philosophy: if I go up, you go up. I don’t step on people to get anywhere. As Americans, we should be treating others as well as ourselves this way. It’s called respect.

Rip up NAFTA, return to bilateral agreements, and show some respect for the rest of us.

Make it happen.

Thank you,

Be civil but direct. The Senate works for us. Let's respectfully remind them of that fact.

Senator John McCain Passes Away

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
Senator / Passing
___________________________

John Sidney McCain III, Senator for Arizona since 1986 passed away  at 4:38pm from brain cancer. He was 81 years old.

His website read:
Senator John McCain's remarkable record of leadership embodies his unwavering lifetime commitment to service. The son and grandson of distinguished Navy Admirals, Senator McCain graduated from the Naval Academy in 1958, and served as a Naval aviator for 22 years, including in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War.

On October 26, 1967, during Senator McCain's 23rd bombing mission over North Vietnam, a missile struck his plane and forced him to eject, knocking him unconscious and breaking both his arms and his leg.

Senator McCain was taken as a prisoner of war into the now-infamous "Hanoi Hilton," where he was denied needed medical treatment and subjected to years of torture by the North Vietnamese. He spent much of his time as a prisoner of war in solitary confinement, aided by his faith and the friendships of his fellow POWs.

When he was finally released and able to return home years later, Senator McCain continued his service by regaining his naval flight status.

His last Navy duty assignment was to serve as the naval liaison to the United States Senate. He retired from the Navy in 1981. His naval honors include the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Legion of Merit, Purple Heart, and the Distinguished Flying Cross.

Senator McCain was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Arizona in 1982 and elected to the United States Senate in 1986. He was the Republican Party's nominee for president in the 2008 election.

Over the course of his career, Senator McCain served as Chairman of the Senate Committees on Indian Affairs, Commerce, Science and Transportation, and most recently, Armed Services.

Senator McCain is survived by his wife, Cindy, seven children and five grandchildren.
He will be laid to rest at the U.S. Naval Academy Cemetery in Annapolis, Maryland.

Governor Doug Ducey will have to appoint he successor until a special election is called.


Could Anti-Trust Monopolies lose Trillions to Asset Forfeiture?

Monopolies / Asset Forfeiture
____________________________

Mr. Sessions,

Why not go after the financials of entities and their personages who have betrayed our founding principles and sold out America to Communist China?

$1 trillion

$500 billion

$14 billion

$661 billion
 
The Sherman Act outlaws "every contract, combination, or conspiracy in restraint of trade," and any "monopolization, attempted monopolization, or conspiracy or combination to monopolize." Long ago, the Supreme Court decided that the Sherman Act does not prohibit every restraint of trade, only those that are unreasonable. For instance, in some sense, an agreement between two individuals to form a partnership restrains trade, but may not do so unreasonably, and thus may be lawful under the antitrust laws. On the other hand, certain acts are considered so harmful to competition that they are almost always illegal. These include plain arrangements among competing individuals or businesses to fix prices, divide markets, or rig bids. These acts are "per se" violations of the Sherman Act; in other words, no defense or justification is allowed
The Federal Trade Commission Act bans "unfair methods of competition" and "unfair or deceptive acts or practices." The Supreme Court has said that all violations of the Sherman Act also violate the FTC Act. Thus, although the FTC does not technically enforce the Sherman Act, it can bring cases under the FTC Act against the same kinds of activities that violate the Sherman Act. The FTC Act also reaches other practices that harm competition, but that may not fit neatly into categories of conduct formally prohibited by the Sherman Act. Only the FTC brings cases under the FTC Act.

The Clayton Act addresses specific practices that the Sherman Act does not clearly prohibit, such as mergers and interlocking directorates (that is, the same person making business decisions for competing companies). Section 7 of the Clayton Act prohibits mergers and acquisitions where the effect "may be substantially to lessen competition, or to tend to create a monopoly." As amended by the Robinson-Patman Act of 1936, the Clayton Act also bans certain discriminatory prices, services, and allowances in dealings between merchants. The Clayton Act was amended again in 1976 by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act to require companies planning large mergers or acquisitions to notify the government of their plans in advance. The Clayton Act also authorizes private parties to sue for triple damages when they have been harmed by conduct that violates either the Sherman or Clayton Act and to obtain a court order prohibiting the anticompetitive practice in the future.
The United States of America through its governance, agencies, and courts has allowed the propagation of monopolies that now seek to stifle freedoms, liberties, and commerce. Some like Apple and Google have interjoined their management with a foreign power, Communist China.
The boards of directors, CEOs, and other top management divisions collude together in private meetings to create The Network of Global Corporate Control.
The structure of the control network of transnational corporations affects global market competition and financial stability. So far, only small national samples were studied and there was no appropriate methodology to assess control globally. We present the first investigation of the  architecture of the international ownership network, along with the computation of the control held by each global player. We find that transnational corporations form a giant bow-tie structure and that a large portion of control flows to a small tightly-knit core of financial institutions. This core can be seen as an economic “super-entity” that raises new important issues both for researchers and policy makers.
Therefore the super-entity of a massive monopoly, which also answers to Communist China through Google and Apple's moves, prompts National Security concerns at the very least. This super-entity now commands a complete umbrella and oversight to change the outcome of future elections under the guise of social justice causes not supported by current US laws such as: censorship, shadow banning, community guideline strikes, and expulsion.   .

If so, then the USA has traitors in the government who need to be investigated:
While the VDP Gazette is no fan of asset forfeiture as the act is unconstitutional thanks to the 5th Amendment, a strike against the Globalists running the unelected administrative state (shadow government/deep state institutions) would be nice.

"...nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

Yet after the punitive damages the Sherman Act allows for, the taking's clause is all but moot after a jury trial of ten or more victories of injured parties.

Still corporations feel the need to circumvent our Bill of Rights as entities defined as individuals instead of the nonperson governing monopolies this super-entity seeks to become. Perhaps it is time to redefine the greed ridden cancers of our society and hand the halls of power back over to the People by taking away the power of the corporation in our society.


Shouldn't you?

Manufactured Consent, Original Research Essay

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
History/ Government
______________________________

Does voting matter? Some Americans believe voting is an essential part of one’s civic responsibility. While other Americans do not think that voting does anything at all. Both perspectives have their pros and cons.

Voting used to mean: one person one say. Now, voting is used by the elite political class to manufacture consent. Voting is also a way to pull consent away from politicians and agendas the People do not wish to follow. It is just a matter of perspective.

So what do we do as a nation? Vote the better of two evils? Or, do we just stop voting when the direction of the country goes off course?

Some uninformed person is always going to vote. That is the nature of our world. Voting is going to happen, so why not vote against the system? Vote against career politicians. Vote against any agenda that takes rights away from any group or individual.

The elite class understands the rules of public administration: agendas must be made public in one way or another, consent must be granted, and the People must be dumbed down in order for the voters to play the cyclical nature of the elite’s consent game.

Round and round, we go. Nothing ever changes for the better; no matter what we do. It is time for a change, how about you?  

Let’s take a look at the events, laws, and agreements that have led America into its present precarious predicament:

When our nation was founded in 1776, the new government understood that the People’s liberties, freedoms, and rights had to be secured from this political theater called manufactured consent.

In the original Constitution, federal and state powers were enumerated as well as balanced. The House of Representatives were elected by popular vote: “The House of Representatives will derive its powers from the people of America” (Federalist No 39). Senators were appointed by their respective states:

The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislature thereof, 3 for six Years; and each Senator shall have one Vote (Constitution, Article I, Section 3).

James Madison in the Federalist No. 39: The Conformity of the Plan to Republican Principles confirmed that in order to protect state’s rights, and the rights of the ordinary citizen, one of the bicameral institutions must reflect that origination:

“The Senate, on the other hand, will derive its powers from the States, as political and co-equal societies; and these will be represented on the principle of equality in the Senate” (Federalist No 39).  

Later the 17th Amendment changed how Senators were elected.

AMENDMENT XVII

Passed by Congress May 13, 1912. Ratified April 8, 1913.

Note: Article I, section 3, of the Constitution was modified by the 17th amendment.

The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislatures.

When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.

This amendment shall not be so construed as to affect the election or term of any Senator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the Constitution.

In this manner, the power of the states were diminished for the majority rule of democracy instead of retaining the ideals of a balanced and equal republic. This instance was not the first time the Constitution, federal powers were altered in favor of centralization.  

Within 73 years of the Federalist papers, the Civil War began. The landscape of our nation changed especially with General Orders 100, the Lieber Code. President Abraham Lincoln’s famous doctrine, which placed the United States under Martial Law after the southern “Rebel” states walked away from the Union due to the federal government’s overreach of power.

Section I.1 of the Instruction for the Government of Armies of the United States in the Field (General Orders 100, Lieber Code) states: 

A place, district, or country occupied by an enemy stands in consequence of the occupation, under the Martial Law of the invading or occupying army, whether any proclamation declaring Martial Law, or  any public warning to the inhabitants, has been issued or not. Martial Law is the immediate and direct effect and consequence of occupation or conquest. The presence of a hostile army proclaims its Martial Law.

Martial Law was enacted by executive authority. General Orders 100 as well as the suspension of Habeas Corpus was a clear violation of the Constitution’s separation of powers. Yet, the executive branch’s obstruction of the rule of law not only continued but has further abridged our liberties and Constitution ever since.

When the Civil War first erupted, President Lincoln worked with the power he did maintain. Under the original, organic Constitution without the constituted federal legislature of all the states, Congress, what he retained was his station as Commander in Chief.

That is why President Lincoln with the assistance of Francis Lieber constructed the codification of the laws of war. This doctrine is why Executive Orders hold weight. Why we are still under Martial Law today.


Since President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated before he could fulfill his plan: bring back the southern states into the Union by force and sanitize the southern states’ constitutions to fit with the rest of the Union, he was unable to resend the General Orders 100.

Many Presidents laud their affection for President Lincoln. How they will govern like the former president. How they will bring the nation together.

Contemporary presidents leave out many facts in their bid to win over the American people like Marital Law, annual states of emergency legislation, and the suspension of the original, organic Constitution, Bill of Rights, federal and state governments. So a vote for President Lincoln and his successor is a vote for endless wars and enslavement.

Quite ironic.                                                                    

After Lincoln’s presidency ended with that fateful shot, the politicians of the time sought control by ignoring the Founder’s vision for this country. Future politicians of the time passed legislation that took the nation further away from its republican principles like the Act of 1871. Since the incorporated municipality of the District of Columbia had already been established decades before, the reason for this new incorporation was to create a corporation separate from the government itself.

This private corporation, masquerading as the United States of America, adopted the original Constitution and Bill of Rights with a couple of exceptions. First, the original thirteenth amendment, which had been ratified, was erased from history. Second, the Constitution and Bill of Rights became fluid. The phrase heard today is: a Living Document. That means whatever interpretation can be conjured for the good of the elite ruling class, who control the government from behind the scenes, becomes the new law of the land. Hence the contradictions seen in the 20st Century’s judicial case law (Erie Railroad Co. vs. Thompkins, 304 U.S. 64, 82 L. Ed. 1188) where Common Law is no longer applicable as well as in the 21st Century’s public sphere between what the Bill of Rights dictates versus political hot button topics such as gun control, privacy rights, and warrantless searches.

Until the elite controlled power structure can chip away all the liberties that are assigned to every living human being regardless of class, creed, gender, or religion, the manipulative game of manufactured consent will continue. Unalienable rights are not bestowed and therefore cannot be taken by any government, law, religion, or tradition. Rights cannot be stolen; rights must be relinquished.

That is why manufactured consent is very important to the elite ruling class. If the public can be manipulated to blame others in the world for their problems, then asking the People to surrender their rights becomes rudimentary. Once someone, anyone, stands up and refuses to consent, the elite have to create social strife in order to bully the public into submission.

The elite love silence. Silence is acquiescence to their agenda. So the elites can move forward and condemn the world population to whatever immoral and unethical plan that is on the table from population control, surveillance, world wars, terrorism, mass migration, sustainability, climate engineering, global taxation, and genetic manipulation of genomes. 

For over one hundred and fifty years, the People of the United States have been maneuvered into this hyper-elitist, paranoid, chattel-driven, oligarchic, police state structure that is seen today. The opposite of what the original, organic Constitution and Bill of Rights had intended. The United States was supposed to be a beacon of hope in a world full of tyrants, not a militaristic pawn hell bent on domesticating the world for the profit and racketeering of a very few.

That is the crux of Martial Law and why we must challenge every aspect of federal expansion of powers especially in terms of the executive branch.

By this avenue, the People have a way to take their country back from the foreign powers that rule it by: educating themselves on actual historical data, becoming public servants themselves, voting against manufactured consent, and holding a Constitutional Convention.

A Constitutional Convention should have certain items on its agenda to free the People of the United States and the world from the elite clutches of one world governance. One the original, organic Constitution and Bill of Rights of the United States need to be restored. The state legislatures and governors  need  to  reseat their original jurisdiction Senators
Manufactured Consent                                                  13

to the Senate of the United States’ Congress. First and foremost though, General Orders 100 needs to be rescinded so that the United States of America can reclaim its lawful authority once again. That would lead to the dissolution of the corporate government by repealing the Act of 1871 (the District of Columbia Organic Act, or DCOA) and rejecting all remaining foreign entanglements. The People again would be in control of their destiny.  

As for education, the American people must delve further into the corruption and treason that is the corporation: the United States. America has some big problems, namely, its inability to represent or defend its own people as well as its reliance on foreign money and interests. Combined, these threats undermine the very Constitution, the corporation is supposed to uphold by its adoption into its bylaws.

Rather than be true to its founding principles, the United States corporation protects its foreign puppeteers and its own power base. By doing so, the United States corporation betrays the Constitution and the American people.

In the ultimate act of treachery, the corporation passed the Trading with the Enemies Act in 1917, 50 U.S. Code Chapter 53, and the act was amended in 1933, which defined the role of the People as enemies of the corporation. The People have become the enemies of the United States, incorporated.

Again the past is prologue. These acts and future proclamations derive from the Alien and Sedition Act of 1798. Politicians loyal to the British Monarchy wanted a show of force against anyone aligning with foreigners for an anticipated battle with France. These acts:

increased the residency requirement for American citizenship from five to fourteen years, authorized the president to imprison or deport aliens considered "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" and restricted speech critical of the government.

Although this led to a populace revolt in Congress, this legislation was the hallmark for later acts to be used against the People. If the government can make associations and transactions criminal before, during, or after hostilities with another country, then a government is dangerous to its People indeed.

President Franklin Roosevelt accomplished this goal with the expansion of the Trading with the Enemies Act in 1933 by declaring Americans enemies of the corporation and seizing their assets without due process of law. The pretext was a run on the banks and depletion of the gold reserves for the nation.

President Roosevelt’s Proclamation 2039 read in part:

Whereas it is provided in Section 5 (b) of the Act of October 6, 1917 (40 Stat. L. 411), as amended, "That the President may investigate, regulate, or prohibit, under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, by means of licenses or otherwise, any transactions in foreign exchange and the export, hoarding, melting, or earmarkings of gold or silver coin or bullion or currency . . ."; and
Whereas it is provided in Section 16 of the said Act "That whoever shall willfully violate any of the provisions of this Act or of any license, rule, or regulation issued thereunder, and whoever shall willfully violate, neglect, or refuse to comply with any order of the President issued in compliance with the provisions of this Act, shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than $10,000, or, if a natural person, imprisoned for not more than ten years, or both . . .";
Now, Therefore I, Franklin D. Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, in view of such national emergency and by virtue of the authority vested in me by said Act and in order to prevent the export, hoarding, or earmarking of gold or silver coin or bullion or currency, do hereby proclaim, order, direct and declare that from Monday, the Sixth day of March, to Thursday, the Ninth day of March, Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-three, both dates inclusive, there shall be maintained and observed by all banking institutions and all branches thereof located in the United States of America, including the territories and insular possessions, a bank holiday, and that during said period all banking transactions shall be suspended. During such holiday, excepting as hereinafter provided, no such banking institution or branch shall pay out, export, earmark, or permit the withdrawal or transfer in any manner or by any device whatsoever, of any gold or silver coin or bullion or currency or take any other action which might facilitate the hoarding thereof; nor shall any such banking institution or branch pay out deposits, make loans or discounts, deal in foreign exchange, transfer credits from the United States to any place abroad, or transact any other banking business whatsoever.

A dangerous precedent was established in Proclamation numbered 2039 as well as the proceeding one, Proclamation 2040: Bank Holiday. The corporation was now the conqueror of the American people.

Still do not believe so? Then how many licenses do you need to get through the day?

According to Section 3a and 3b of the Trading with the Enemies Act, the United States makes unlawful: “Trading in United States with enemy or ally, or for benefit thereof, without a license.”

Americans need a driver’s license to move freely about the territory. A business license is necessary to create an income and provide jobs to others. How about a license to practice law, medicine, or psychiatry? How about the need for a National ID? The list of licensure is endless.

Without a doubt, the American way of life is in deep trouble when freedoms are regulated by the issuance of licenses for a fee.

In addition to the other acts of obstruction to the rule of law, Congress then enacted the War Powers Act of 1933, which concentrated more executive power. In 1973 the Special Committee on the Termination of the National Emergency was convened to see if the act was even still necessary. The Report from this committee states:

Over the course of at least the last 40 years, then, Presidents have had available an enormous - seemingly expanding and never-ending - range of emergency powers. Indeed, at their fullest extent and during the height of a crisis, these "prerogative" powers appear to be virtually unlimited, confirming Locke's perceptions. Because Congress and the public are unaware of the extent of emergency powers, there has never been any notable congressional or public objection made to this state of affairs. Nor have the courts imposed significant limitations.

The report goes on to explain:

Since March 9, 1933, the United States has been in a state of declared national emergency. In fact, there are now in effect four presidentially proclaimed states of national emergency: In addition to the national emergency declared by President Roosevelt in 1933, there are also the national emergency proclaimed by President Truman on December 16, 1950, during the Korean conflict, and the states of national emergency declared by President Nixon on March 23, 1970, and August 15, 1971.

These proclamations give force to 470 provisions of Federal law. These hundreds of statutes delegate to the President extraordinary powers, ordinarily exercised by the Congress, which affect the lives of American citizens in a host of all-encompassing manners. This vast range of powers, taken together, confer enough authority to rule the country without reference to normal Constitutional processes.

Under the powers delegated by these statutes, the President may: seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and, in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens.  

Extraordinary legislative expansions of executive power are on record and have increased with each passing Presidency. The checks and balances of the original Constitution have been breached as well as the contract between the corporation and the People. In these consecutive legislative surrenders, increasing influence of executive authority has produced startling examples of the failure to adhere to the Constitution or even the courage to curtail Martial Law in any way, shape, or form.

Thus both the Trading with the Enemies Act and the War Powers Act by their breadth led to the modern day laws like the Patriot Act, NDAA indefinite detention clause, and mass surveillance as allowable under corporate rule.

The corporation continued its assault on the American people this time on the international stage. The corporation known as the United States signed treaties and agreements that gave away its presumed sovereignty and the rights of the People to govern themselves.

Today’s international agreements have the Lieber Code as their foundation for the codification was misused to usher the United States into the 1874 Brussels Conference and the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907. This led the future United States of America to accept further compliance to foreign interests. In the 20th Century, those major acts were: the Bretton Woods Agreements and the ensuing treaty with the United Nations.

The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 allowed for those agreements by laying more of the groundwork. The Act of 1913 reads in part:

An Act to provide for the establishment of Federal reserve banks, to furnish an elastic currency, to afford means of rediscounting commercial paper, to establish a more effective supervision of banking in the United States, and for other purposes (US Code, p. 251).  

With this act and the National Banking Act of 1933, the United States Treasury was handed over to the private central bankers. Whereas the Constitution makes the responsibility clear that the Congress is:

To coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures; (Article I, Section 8).

So without an Amendment to the Constitution, how is Congress allowed to privatize their duties as the stewards of the Treasury and surrender the agency to a foreign corporation? Neither aforementioned acts accomplish this task. The acts only create law, not amend it.  

Which brings us to the Bretton Woods Agreements of 1944, this international agreement approved by the Congress as a congressional-executive agreement (CEA) and not specifically a “treaty” created the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. 

The United States Code (USC) Title 22 § 286 states:
§ 286. Acceptance of membership by the United States in International Monetary Fund.

The President is hereby authorized to accept membership for the United States in the International Monetary Fund (hereinafter referred to as the "Fund"), and in the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (hereinafter referred to as the "Bank"), provided for by the Articles of Agreement of the Fund and the Articles of Agreement of the Bank as set forth in the Final Act of the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference dated July 22, 1944, and deposited in the archives of the Department of State. (July 31, 1945, ch. 339, § 2, 59 Stat. 512.)

A CEA is allowable in lieu of treaty ratification when an agreement is not binding in perpetuity. Thomas Jefferson stated about agreements:  

It is desirable, in many instances, to exchange mutual advantages by Legislative Acts rather than by treaty: because the former, though understood to be in consideration of each other, and therefore greatly respected, yet when they become too inconvenient, can be dropped at the will of either party: whereas stipulations by treaty are forever irrevocable but by joint consent let a change of circumstances render them ever so bothersome.

CEAs can only cover matters which the Constitution states that is within the powers of Congress and the President to legislate or execute. Yet there have been conflicts with this form of “agreement”.

When the Migratory Bird Act of 1918 conflicted with the Tenth Amendment and states rights, the Supreme Court weighed in on one of these congressional-executive agreements in the case State of Missouri v. Holland, United States Game Warden. 

The judgment of the Supreme Court concluded that the Supremacy Clause, Article VI, Clause 2, made international policy above the concerns of individual states and therefore gives CEAs the ability to abridge state laws, the freedoms of the People, by amending the Constitution through treaties, agreements, and acts on the international stage.

The long way around but the foundation is again set. Congress has used “acts” to maneuver around the Constitution and states rights. Acts such as the Federal Reserve Act, The National Banking Act, and now the Bretton Woods Act shows a history of ignoring the Constitution for a pragmatist’s view of constructivist law instead of the original interpretation of it.  

Since the United States transferred assets to the IMF, some have argued that the other provisions in the Bretton Woods Agreement have created a quitclaim action over the corporation known as the United States. Public law 48 Stat. 342. 31 USC, Supp. IV, § 822a-c states the “Secretary of the Treasury is directed to use $1,800,000,000” to pay the subscription fees to the IMF, plus an additional $950,000,000. In order to pay the IMF, the Treasury used public-debt transactions.

To further explore the scope of the entanglements, the Bretton Woods Agreement Act stated: “provided for É as set forth in the Final Act of the United Nations.” An odd phrase since the United Nations Treaty with the United States that is recorded happened on December 20, 1945, five months after the Bretton Woods Conference.

Under these financial acts, agreements, and treaties of the 20th Century, the corporation known as the United States ceased to exist, as it was known, if the quitclaim is to be asserted. A quitclaim is:

A quitclaim deed is a release by the grantor, or conveyor of the deed, of any interest the grantor may have in the property described in the deed. Generally a quitclaim deed relieves the grantor of liability regarding the ownership of the property. Thus, the grantor of a quitclaim deed will not be liable to the grantee, or recipient of the deed, if a competing claim to the property is later discovered. A quitclaim deed is not a guarantee that the grantor has clear title to the property; rather it is a relinquishment of the grantor's rights, if any, in the property.

For instance, the original owner of the corporation known as the United States was the actual government of the United States of America. After the agreement under Bretton Woods, the IMF became the owner of the corporation known as the United States, in which all rights were relinquished. The United States, including its Treasury, are now owned lock, stock, and barrel by Great Britain’s Bank of International Settlements (Central Bankers), which just happens to own the IMF.

Welcome back to the British Monarchy.

So when someone states that our corporate government is a foreign entity, that person is correct. The above acts and agreements make that reality all too clear: the United States is a foreign controlled entity. Therefore by default, the corporation known as the United States has many conflicts of interest: one, between the foreign central bankers and corporate monopolies that control it and two, with the rest of the nation and the People it is supposed to represent.

Our so-called government is for all intents and purposes a front for any elite (e.g., banker, monarch, and bureaucrat) power broker to use as that person or entity sees fit and calls it America. The dummy corporation and its officers are more interested in what elites can do for them than protecting the rights of the American People. The opposite of Truth, Justice, and the American way has become standard issue. Our Revolutionary War efforts have succumbed to the tyrants our Founders fought against through the failings of dictatorial executive power.  

What are the rebels and free thinkers to do about this whole mess? How are we to disengage ourselves from the unlawful, illegal, and illegitimate foreign occupation of our suspended government? Is there a nonviolent resolution ready for the taking?

A Constitutional Convention would resolve much of the imbalance by reinstituting states rights. What America needs is a tabula rasa, clean slate, to start over from scratch. In the interim, Americans must contend with the question that began this treatise: Does voting even matter at this point?

Since the United States corporation adopted the Constitution and Bill of Rights, save one, voting has become a means of controlling the populace and the government message, not an exercise in freedom. So to that end, no, voting does not seem to matter.

However we must not get caught up in the minutia, we must explore the wider canvas. There seems to be some weaknesses in the foreign corporate strategy that appears to be exploitable: consent, voting, and patriotic political candidates.

When the People back individuals for office who expose the fraud of our governance and laws, the politicians who play king-makers all of a sudden demonize, ridicule, and attack the People’s choice. Why?

If the elections are already rigged, why would the establishment revolt against a populace uprising at the voting booth?

When the ruling elite place their political puppets in elections, the voters are corralled into voting for the elite’s agenda thereby giving their reluctant “consent”. A choice between two elite controlled candidates is manufactured consent, but consent to the illegitimate foreign corporate agenda nonetheless.

With consent of the governed, no matter the lies spewed and allegiances unkept by the political establishment once voted in, the People acquiesce to the mistake of voting in the victor. The elite have their consent. The People feel responsible for the ensuing mess. No rebellion or uprising is feared by the corrupt ruling elite.

If a nationalistic or populace candidate gains strong support, the elite’s puppets jump onto the nearest media show to explain how the People are powerless and voiceless in the election of politicians. To that end, political parties have become the talking heads for the corrupt global elite establishment who hold America in perpetual Martial Law. Thus the political king-makers have made themselves obsolete as the People are now wise to the evolving deception to stagnant their motility and compromise their liberties.

In the wake of ping ponging a populace between two foreign corporate sponsored political parties that are only loyal to the elite oligarchic, monopoly power structure, the People should vote… them all out of power. If the chink in the armor is to cast a vote in the opposite direction back to liberty, then cast away, but be forewarned:

If a politician takes any corporate money, do not vote for that politician. If a politician takes money from a political party, do not vote for that politician. If a politician espouses a religious preference, do not vote for that politician. If that politician has dual citizenship with any country, do not vote for that politician. And, so on.

The establishment will use any lie, dirty trick, or religious dogma to their benefit at the voting booth. Just as a compromised candidate and associated political party will use any means necessary to create fear, distrust, and even controversy in order to control the political narrative and manufacture consent for the elite’s destructive policies of total foreign dictatorial control through local means.

Ignore their rhetoric and vote in patriotic candidates who are awake to the depressing facts of our conquered nation. Always speak out against encroachments on rights since silence is compliance with regards to the elite’s agenda of domination. Thus, votes can become the rejection of manufactured consent.

The People can return to their founding principles if the People remember what it is to be free. A free nation creates laws based on hope for the future. A free People vote to expand liberty and rights for all.  

To that end, Americans need to reinstitute their founding government by electing officials outside the elite power structure’s elections. That would help the United States reclaim its original jurisdiction. A Constitutional Convention would assist in uncoupling the United States from its corporate holdings, elite agenda, and foreign interests.



Manufactured Consent                                                  25

Americans greatest strength is educating themselves and others about the historical deviation that is taught in schools in order to dumb the People down into accepting foreign corporate rule. The elite have set forth their agenda in the public sphere over the decades. It is time the People realize the deception and learn what has been hidden from generation after generation of Americans.

Until the United States is unencumbered from the damage inflicted upon the nation by decades of corrupt policies, laws, and executive orders, the nation will continue to be embroiled in wars, debt, and social strife.

The People must be vigilant and continue to refuse their consent. Consent is the only reason that the United States has lost its grandeur and credibility in the world. And, consent is the only way the People are going to return to the Golden Age of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

If you vote, vote wisely.
