It's Time For A New Law...

...embodying some key Constitutional provisions and the time-tested and well-proven wisdom of America's Founding Father.

1. WHEREAS, THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION PROVIDES, at Article 1, sec. 2, cl. 2 and sec. 3, cl. 3, and Article 2, sec. 1, cl. 5 that only American citizens shall hold elected offices in the United States government; and,

2. WHEREAS, it is the hallmark of American citizenship that loyalty, interests, affections and concerns be devoted exclusively to America and her citizens and compromise thereof falls within the traditional meaning of "high crimes and misdemeanors" as used in the impeachment provisions of the United States Constitution; therefore,

3. Pursuant to the clear language and obvious intent of fundamental US law as cited above, no person who can be shown to harbor an interest in the well-being of any other country or people, either benevolent or hostile, and either personally or as a proxy for others, whether in response to blackmail or bribery or for any reason whatsoever, shall be permitted to hold elected or appointed office in the United States.

4. Upon a sworn allegation of any officeholder's compromised interests as outlined above supported by any additional credible evidence, the United States House of Representatives shall assemble the evidence for presentation in trial and forward articles of impeachment against such person to the United States Senate, which shall promptly convene a trial for the hearing of the evidence and the rendering of a decision. No showing of action against America's interests shall be required for either charging or conviction.

(I characterize this as a new law here, but perhaps it would be necessary to enact it as a Constitutional amendment, since the current crop of deeply-compromised office-holders are unlikely to enact it as mere legislation. In this case the text would consist only of what follows the first comma in paragraph 3:

1. No person who can be shown to harbor an interest in the well-being of any other country or people, either benevolent or hostile, and either personally or as a proxy for others, whether in response to blackmail or bribery or for any reason whatsoever, shall be permitted to hold elected or appointed office in the United States.

2. Upon a sworn allegation of any officeholder's compromised interests as outlined above supported by any additional credible evidence, the United States House of Representatives shall assemble the evidence for presentation in trial and forward articles of impeachment against such person to the United States Senate, which shall promptly convene a trial for the hearing of the evidence and the rendering of a decision. No showing of action against America's interests shall be required for either charging or conviction.)

I'M SORRY TO SAY IT, but even many of the supposedly conservative and law-respecting "right" in America have become censorship enthusiasts in service to an Israeli agenda (and in likewise corrupt and hypocritical service to Ukrainian interests-- whether directly or as an expression of festering hostility to Russia). It's time the adults in the room step up and forcibly kick all the compromised foreign-policy nutcases to the curb, and really and meaningfully put us back on the path to America first.

The hands of those in thrall to affections or hostilities to other countries or peoples have no business on any levers of power here. Now and then American interests might align with favoring one place or group, or disfavoring another place or group, but those calls should never be made by people predisposed in such matters-- enslaved in such matters, in fact, as George Washington put it in his deeply wise and prescient Farewell Address.

As it happens, when Israel was engaged in one of its prior suppression exercises in Gaza back in April of 2018, I was moved to bring Washington's thoughtful words to the attention of the CtC community (in hopes that members would help spread them further). What I said then is, if anything, even more important today than it was back then, and so, here it is again (updated with some additions concerning Ukraine, which was not, back then, the festering boil of exactly what Washington warns us against, as it surely is now...):

A Word To America's Policy Makers From The Father Of Our Country

There's never been a better time for revisiting this wisdom.

ON SEPTEMBER 19, 1796, George Washington's farewell address was published as an open letter to the American public. Among much other wisdom, the man so universally respected by the Founders as to have been unanimously elected president of the convention that drafted our current United States Constitution made the following observations regarding prudent, productive, and liberty-protective foreign policy:

"...[N]othing is more essential, than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular Nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded; and that, in place of them, just and amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated. The Nation, which indulges towards another an habitual hatred, or an habitual fondness, is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation against another disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and intractable, when accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence frequent collisions, obstinate, envenomed, and bloody contests. The Nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the Government, contrary to the best calculations of policy. The Government sometimes participates in the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times, it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects of hostility instigated by pride, ambition, and other sinister and pernicious motives. The peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of Nations has been the victim.

"So likewise, a passionate attachment of one Nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite Nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest, in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter, without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite Nation of privileges denied to others, which is apt doubly to injure the Nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained; and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens, (who devote themselves to the favorite nation,) facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation."

WHAT DOES THIS SAY TO US (and especially to current denizens of Washington, DC)? Here's what:

Sh*t-can the bad attitude toward Russia and Iran, dammit, and fire anyone who harbors it!

Russia is a country whose people heroically threw off a deeply-embedded vicious totalitarian state not long ago (maybe this is why some folks hate it so much?). It is properly secular and tolerant of all faiths (while being more Christian than the USA has been for decades), has far lower taxes than those imposed by the United States and a much more lasseiz-faire regulatory demeanor, and has been doing everything possible to be a good neighbor to the rest of the world for many, many years. The United States should be doing everything possible to be its friend.

Iran, though a theocracy, is religiously and ethnically open (for example, Christianity is the fastest-growing religion in Iran right now; Sunnis Muslims live there alongside the Shi'ite majority; and Jews are a protected religious minority with expressly-reserved seats in Parliament). It has a long history of non-aggression, and has been relentlessly and viciously victimized by the United States over the last 65 years. We owe it our good behavior.

Sh*t-can the creepy mooning over Britain, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Ukraine, dammit, and fire anyone afflicted by it!

Britain for many years now has been a political and cultural embarrassment to Western civilization, and even before that had a long history of deception as a routine tool of "statecraft", lawless "might makes right" military aggressions, and basic unscrupulousness in regard to the rest of the world.

Israel and Saudi Arabia are apartheid-esque theocracies which have succeeded in establishing "Master-Blaster" relationships with the United States (with them in the "master" seat) by buying influence in Washington (often with money taken from Americans). Israel is aggressively, disruptively and unscrupulously expansionist; Saudi Arabia is the source of Wahabbist Islamic radicalism.

Both are responsible for endless Middle-East conflicts and abuses of poorly-defended victims; both have been eating meals taken from the tables of American citizens for decades; and both should be kept at arm's length rather than hugged so closely that we get their fleas.

Ukraine is a relatively new barnacle on the American ship of state, but is no more deserving of affectionate attachment than the rest while bringing into the picture a greater physical risk to our country and people than any of the others.

LET'S REMEMBER Washington's wisdom: NO OTHER COUNTRY'S INTERESTS ARE WORTH ONE DROP OF AMERICAN BLOOD, OR ONE DOLLAR OF AMERICAN TREASURE.

Their enemies are NOT our enemies, and their friends are NOT our friends, and this can't be evaded by any pretenses about "strategic" considerations.

America First, and that means not swaggering around the world creating pretexts for pissing away American treasure through hostile posturing-- or outright aggression-- against people who haven't invaded our shores.

Listen to Father George.

AND HERE'S MY WORD TO EVERYONE ELSE: Stop leaving critical calls like these up to political hacks. How has that ever worked for you in the past?

Use the tools the Founders provided for us all, as discussed here.

It's Also Time To Demand The Courts Show Respect For The Fourth Amendment

...as Congress and the Executive prove yet again that they will not do so.

AMONG MANY OTHER OFFENSES in his short time as Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson (with many accomplices) took pains recently to spit on the US Constitution and not only enable the continuation of systematic government violations of the Fourth Amendment, but to worsen them. The Senate followed suit, and Joe Biden will gleefully cannonball into that pool as well.

I speak, of course, of the renewal of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). That's the provision that purports to authorize warrantless searches and seizures-- by magic, it would seem, since the government is Constitutionally prohibited from conducting such searches and seizures, and therefore Congress cannot authorize any part of it to conduct them.

The effort to work around the prohibition has prompted the invention of such nonsense doctrines as the "reasonable expectation of privacy" whereby it is "reasoned" that because you are willing to have your phone and internet service providers know certain things about your affairs (as necessary to take advantage of the services they offer) that you are thus implicitly giving permission for the government to know those things, too (or for ANYONE to know them, for that matter, making one wonder why there is always a hue and cry whenever any institution suffers a data breach revealing stuff about which no one supposedly has an expectation of privacy).

Similarly, it is doctrinally assumed that when you leave the confines of your house, you are also waiving your right to be secure in your person, house, papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures. The argument is that by stepping outside it you somehow make it reasonable for the state to surveil you without probable cause or the protection of judicial supervision.

After all, you're visible, aren't you? So, if the neighbors can watch your every move, the government should be able to do so, too, right? But these false doctrines are attempting to turn the Fourth Amendment on its head.

The Fourth Amendment doesn't create or even define or articulate a right for you. Rather, it just acknowledges your right to privacy while doing its real business, which is imposing a prohibition on the government.

Key to enforcement of that "right" and that prohibition is accuracy regarding the words used in the law (the amendment). Here, it is the true meaning of "reasonable" (or, more precisely, "unreasonable") that is being misunderstood or misconstrued by the courts, thus opening the door for the evils of Section 702 (and FISA itself).

Here is that true meaning:

Warrantless Searches Are Always Unlawful

The historical record of the Fourth Amendment makes clear that there are no exceptions.

AMERICANS HAVE BEEN SIMMERING WITH ANGER IN RECENT YEARS over revelations about the NSA and FBI hoovering-up everyone's phone-calls, email, "social media" posts and so on, along with other systematic, institutionalized privacy assaults. This widespread ire has been met with predictable political-class nonsense: lies about the extent of the violations, efforts to downplay the significance of the violations, and arguments that it's all for a good cause anyway, so everyone should just get over it.

All of these evasions and obfuscations are bad enough, just for the insult thereby offered to an angry America: "We're not only mugging you, but we also believe you're too stupid to stay incensed about it if we throw some eyewash your way..."

But the apologias and efforts to placate us aren't the worst offenses. Far more pernicious is the real assault on our sensibilities and the frayed sinews of our Constitutional structure in the form of repeated assertions by the perps that these privacy violations are "lawful".

They are not.

     There is no such thing as an unwarranted but "reasonable" search

THE RATIONALE FOR ASSERTING THE "LAWFULNESS" of warrantless extra-domicile and electronic searches and seizures [of physical property and data] has rested on construing the Fourth Amendment as allowing for "reasonable" searches and seizures without the need for warrants. But this is a construction for the purpose of distorting the amendment's prescriptions and proscriptions-- a "constortion", if I may be allowed to coin a term.

Under the constortion, the word "unreasonable" in the amendment is read as isolated from the remainder of the amendment, or as a qualifier of the warrant specifications that follow. Under the constortion, "unreasonable" is seen as included in order to distinguish an imagined "reasonable" search-- which, because "reasonable", needs no warrant-- from an "unreasonable" search, which, because unreasonable, does need a warrant.

But in fact, the historical record makes clear that this is in no way the Framers' intent-- rather, "unreasonable" appears in the amendment solely as an expression of the Framers' view that ANY search or seizure unauthorized by a warrant secured under stringent standards of testimony and cause is thereby inherently UN-reasonable, and a violation of the amendment.

In the amendment, "unreasonable" means "without reason" (an illuminating synonym of which is "unwarranted"). What follows after that term is not a proscription for how "unreasonable" searches or seizures are to be conducted. Instead, what follows are the requirements for the establishment of an amendment-satisfying reason for a search or seizure.

FRANKLY, THE LANGUAGE OF THE AMENDMENT ALONE makes its real meaning plain enough to anyone reading it fairly, and without a wish to constort in service to a government desire to be let off its Constitutional chain. We'll go to the historical original-intent records in a moment, but first, let's just look at that current language:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Fairly read without an intent to misunderstand, there is no way this language can be honestly construed as a Constitutional statement (or even mere implication) that certain searches and seizures can be lawfully conducted without warrants. On the contrary, this language plainly says that right of the people to be secure against searches and seizures without a valid reason shall not be violated, and establishment of a valid reason requires an allegation of probable cause under oath, with particularity, considered by an appropriate officer authorized to issue warrants.

That is, "unreasonable" in the amendment doesn't mean "out of the ordinary", "excessive" or "in violation of reasonable expectations of privacy" as federal courts have variously constorted the amendment over recent decades. Rather, "unreasonable" means just what is says: "conducted without a properly-established reason," and is followed by the requirements by which a valid reason must be established.

However, my perceptions and arguments of the proper reading of the amendment's language needn't be relied upon to make my case. The writings the Founders and Framers provide all the clarification needed against even the most willfully obtuse reading.

     The historical records are clear and definitive

LETS LOOK AT THE LANGUAGE of some contemporaneous alternative versions of the Fourth Amendment. Keep in mind that these measures reflect the fact that at the time it was understood that some kind of warrant was required for any search or seizure, which was why the colonial-era British went to the trouble of issuing "general warrants" even when intending to conduct searches unsupported by sworn allegations and particularity.

Here, as a first example, is the Fourth Amendment counterpart from the Declaration of Rights in the Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776:

That the people have a right to hold themselves, their houses, papers, and possessions free from search and seizure, and therefore warrants without oaths or affirmations first made, affording a sufficient foundation for them, and whereby any officer or messenger may be commanded or required to search suspected places, or to seize any person or persons, his or their property, not particularly described, are contrary to that right, and ought not to be granted.

Consolidated, this reads: "[T]he people have a right to be free from search and seizure [of any kind-- houses, papers and possessions, with no limiting specifications provided], and therefore warrants [again, the only mechanism recognized at the time by which any kind of search was permitted] ought not be granted without sworn allegations providing a sufficient foundation, and without particularity."

Similarly, the Virginia Declaration of Rights, another early version of the Fourth upon which the federal Constitutional amendment was modeled, reads in pertinent part:

That general warrants, whereby any officer or messenger may be commanded to search suspected places without evidence of a fact committed, or to seize any person or persons not named, or whose offence is not particularly described and supported by evidence, are grievous and oppressive, and ought not to be granted.

That is, "[S]earch[es]...without evidence [which is to say, testimony, which is to say, sworn]...are grievous and oppressive, and ought not be granted."

Both of these contemporaneous alternative versions of the Fourth Amendment plainly declare that searches and seizures without sworn allegations and particularity are unreasonable and prohibited. In fact, the Pennsylvania version expressly declares that any search and seizure unsupported by sworn allegations of cause and/or lacking particularity is contrary to the right Constitutionally asserted and secured therein.

James Madison, in arguing before Congress for the inclusion of the Bill of Rights (and, again, speaking in the context of ALL searches and seizures requiring a warrant), described his intent for the Fourth thusly:

The rights of the people to be secured in their persons; their houses, their papers, and their other property, from all unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated by warrants issued without probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, or not particularly describing the places to be searched, or the persons or things to be seized.

Massachusetts, in its Constitution of 1780, put it this way:

Every subject has a right to be secure from all unreasonable searches, and seizures of his person, his houses, his papers, and all his possessions. All warrants, therefore, are contrary to this right, if the cause or foundation of them be not previously supported by oath or affirmation; and if the order in the warrant to a civil officer, to make search in suspected places, or to arrest one or more suspected persons, or to seize their property, be not accompanied with a special designation of the persons or objects of search, arrest, or seizure: and no warrant ought to be issued but in cases, and with the formalities, prescribed by the laws.

Plainly, the Framers adopted the Fourth Amendment to ensure that all searches conducted anywhere, at any time and under any circumstances other than arrest for conduct just committed are based on prior establishment of probable cause by sworn testimony, with particularity as to what is to be sought and seized. There IS no "reasonable search" exception that can be construed from the amendment.

The "unreasonable" in the Fourth's language doesn't distinguish one kind of search which needs a warrant from another kind that does not. Instead, it serves to label all non-conforming searches as thereby unreasonable and thus barred by the amendment.

     The law hasn't changed, and modern unwarranted searches are illegal

WHAT WAS UNCONSTUTIONAL YESTERDAY is unconstitutional today, absent an intervening amendment. Searches or seizures of any kind-- anyplace, anytime and of anything-- without a warrant based on a sworn, credible and specific allegation that evidence of a crime will be found are Fourth Amendment violations. There are no exceptions.

"An unconstitutional act is not law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never passed."

-16 Am Jur 2d, Sec 177 late 2d, Sec 256

Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE SPORADIC EASINGS of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected under since the onset of the COVID-19 hobgoblin narrative should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], since March of 2020 you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

"It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error."

Regarding Trolleries

(Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")

FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word?

SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance:

Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same?

Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort...

Would Israel Go Nuclear Against Iran?

Douglass Macgregor

In August 1961, during a period when tensions between Washington and Moscow were at a high point, Admiral Konstantin I. Derevyanko penned a letter to Premier Krushchev. His purpose was to alert Krushchev to what the Admiral called the “nuclear romanticism” of the Soviet General Staff. The Admiral’s words still carry the force of logic and common sense and are still worthy of our attention today:

Which planet do these people [the Soviet General Staff] intend to live on in the future, and to which Earth do they plan to send their troops to conquer territories?... By this indiscriminately massive use of nuclear weapons on a small and narrow area like Western Europe, we would not only be accepting millions of radioactively contaminated civilians, but, because of the prevailing westerly winds, would also be radioactively contaminating millions of our own people for decades—our armed forces and the populations of the socialist countries, including our own country as far as the Urals.

According to an unnamed official of the U.S. Government, President Joe Biden has told Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the United States will not participate in a counterstrike against Iran. This is gratifying news.

Israel does not contemplate operations against Iran or any other state that challenges Israel’s bid for strategic dominance in exclusively conventional military terms. In other words, for Israel’s national leadership, the use of a nuclear weapon is always on the table. Israel’s fundamental deterrence is still asymmetric nuclear capability.

Until now, Washington’s unconditional support for any action Netanyahu wants to take has made Washington an accomplice in Israel’s deliberate slaughter and starvation of Gaza’s Arab population and in the Israeli attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria, a violation of international law. This collaborative support erodes the power and authority of the American People.

It’s time to ask whether American national interest and common sense are finally intruding in the formulation and conduct of U.S. foreign policy. No one in the United States, Europe, or Asia benefits economically, politically, or financially from a regional war in the Middle East that closes the Straits of Hormuz and potentially invites direct Russian military intervention on Iran’s side. Is it also possible that Biden might object to the destruction of life in Gaza?

In this connection, the revelation that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin allegedly asked Minister Yoav Gallant, his Israeli counterpart, to inform the United States in advance of any possible counterattack by Israel is small comfort. Americans should not forget that Netanyahu wields considerable influence on the Hill, and in the mainstream media. Already legislators are falling all over themselves to send additional billions to Israel while U.S. borders remain open, Americans die of fentanyl poisoning, criminality rises, and children are being trafficked.

It may be too soon to answer the question of whether U.S. foreign policy is changing. Why? Because Israeli Media reports that there were intense debates during the last two meetings of the Israeli war Cabinet on whether to launch a large-scale strike against Iran. Such an attack would likely target Iranian command-and-control, potential long-range missile sites, airbases, naval bases, and oil infrastructure. On the other hand, there was reportedly a discussion about an Israeli response that might be more “measured” to prevent a wider regional conflict.

What Americans know is that Iran targeted Israeli military installations, not Israel’s population. And Iran used a small fraction of its arsenal and very few of their newest weapons. Hezbollah effectively sat out the event. Though it is speculated that two Israeli airfields and possibly an intelligence station on the Golan Heights sustained some damage, the entire Iranian operation had a theatrical air about it.

No one was surprised. Certainly not the Israeli air forces or their colleagues in the U.S. and British air forces. As noted above, with few exceptions, most of the 300-plus drones and missiles were intercepted and shot down.

Nevertheless, Iran understood what was required to overwhelm Israeli and allied air defenses. We may infer that there was also a desire in Tehran to avoid escalating the conflict. Consider what would happen if Iran launched 1500 drones and 800 ballistic missiles over several hours, or even days. Iran made its point. It’s simple: Iran can destroy Israel. Tehran created new conditions of deterrence that favor Iran.

Iran announced through their UN mission that they consider the issue of the Israeli strikes on their consular offices in Syria closed. But nothing is solved. Little has changed. A million are starving in Gaza, and Americans should expect the Israeli campaign of murder and expulsion in Gaza to resume shortly.

...and then proceed to the afterword below...

Afterword

COLONEL MACGREGOR POSES an important question, and the sociopathic character of the Israeli state that has been revealed to the world more starkly than ever before since the October 7, 2023 pretext began being exploited to accomplish the long-sought eradication of the remaining native population of Palestine suggests a very unwelcome answer. Israel appears fully in gear right now with the "chosen people" psycho-gimmick of a supposed divine mandate to do whatever it wants without any sense of moral responsibility, and it is hard to imagine any sudden awakening from that mania, and adoption of restraint.

The only real hope in that regard is that the message delivered last week by Iran-- that its military technologies and strategies enable its complete destruction of Israel at its pleasure-- will sink in, despite the interference with that epiphany by the idiots in Washington with their weekend indication of continuing support for Israeli craziness.

On that latter point about the (grossly irresponsible) idiots in Washington, and in light of Colonel Macgregor's very valid concern about Israel going nuclear, what the idiots REALLY should be doing is impeaching Joe Biden for his refusal to obey the law at 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa AND 2799aa-1. Those provisions require presidential recognition of Israel as a nuclear-weapons-possessing state not in compliance with international law, and the consequent cessation of all aid to that country.

See the details on this very significant issue, and the sordid history of Israel's nuclear program here.

UNFORTUNATELY, THE SWAMP CREATURES in Washington won't themselves act to restrain rogue states like Israel because they themselves operate a rogue state, and wish to remain free to do so, as well. They can't imagine pointing a finger at others of their own ilk and issuing denunciations and sanctions-- that would mean pointing a finger at themselves, and embracing restraint, and this they will not do.

Instead, that important task falls to us. Here is how it can be accomplished:

The Founders' Defense Against Sociopaths In Office

"In order to get power and retain it, it is necessary to love power; but love of power is not connected with goodness but with qualities that are the opposite of goodness, such as pride, cunning and cruelty."

-Leo Tolstoy

IT IS WELL ESTABLISHED that there are an inordinate number of sociopaths in public office as compared to the general population. As observed by Martha Stout, clinical psychologist and author of The Sociopath Next Door,

"[P]oliticians are more likely than people in the general population to be sociopaths. I think you would find no expert in the field of sociopathy/psychopathy/antisocial personality disorder who would dispute this..."

These sociopaths are people of the "power sickness", characterized by narcissism, self-importance, a willingness to manipulate others and the charm to do it effectively, and a perpetual habit of deflecting blame when their self-interested actions cause harm to others, all stemming from a basic lack of conscience. See here, here, here and here.

This overrepresentation of sociopaths in the "political class" is no surprise. After all, public office offers all the things gratifying to such people. Office-holders get lots of attention from others, much of it fawning; they get easy money and lots of it; they get the opportunity to rule over other people; and they face a standard of success that relies more on a skill at bullsh*tting than on the hard work needed to actually gratify the needs and desires of strangers, such as is required in any other occupation.

Further, the skills needed to achieve public office-- being willing and able to convincingly paint a rosier, more desirable picture than any honest opponent would have the moral turpitude to offer; charisma; and an obsession with self-aggrandizement-- are all the natural traits of the sociopath. Healthy men and women are hard-pressed to compete against these political "naturals" in any but the most extraordinary circumstances.

Given this remarkably-aligned package of requirements and rewards, it's no surprise that sociopaths gravitate toward public office and achieve it in numbers disproportionate to their representation within the general population of healthy men and women. The top prizes go to the very worst of them, and the losers satisfy themselves by joining the swarm of petty functionaries with clipboards that fills government buildings coast-to-coast.

SO, PUBLIC OFFICES ARE TYPICALLY nests of snakes, supported by nests of lesser but just-as-reptilian creatures, including, of course, all the appointees selected by the chief sociopaths (judges, department heads, commission members and so forth), who are from the ranks of those congenial to their benefactors' characters and desires. This has always been the case, from the very beginning of any kind of hierarchic ruling structure in any human society.

And sociopaths in positions of authority are dangerous! No one in his or her right mind wants these folks wielding significant power that is capable of causing harm on any kind of mass scale, whether at home or abroad.

HAPPILY, THOSE WHO FOUNDED THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN AMERICA knew all about sociopaths, their lusts, and their skills. Adams, Jefferson, Madison and the rest were close and accomplished students of history and psychology, and had their own personal lifelong experiences with public office-holders, both elected and appointed. The Founders recognized the danger these mentally-ill but eminently-functional types represented to decent society and the principles of liberty.

At the same time, the Founders also recognized that some form of power-managing societal organization was inevitable, whether theoretically "necessary" or not. So, they made provisions to structure that organization so as to provide for the accommodation of the inevitable while strictly protecting against the threat of sociopaths using the structure to do great harm or to become an existential threat to the liberty of the People.

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

Lawyers: It's Way Past Time For You All To Queue Up!

[Y]ou really need to familiarize yourself with Pete Hendrickson's absolutely magnificent work at his website and in his book(s). He has, brilliantly and lucidly, "cracked the code" regarding the federal income EXCISE tax(es)."

-Mark C. Phillips, JD

"...I find your work fascinatingly simple to understand."

-Jerry Arnowitz, JD

"Your book is a masterpiece!"

-Michael Carver, JD

"Received your book yesterday. Started reading at 11 PM, finished at 4 AM." "I have 16 feet (literally 16' 4.5") of documents supporting just about everything in your book." "Your book should be required reading for every lawyer before being admitted to any Bar." "I hope you sell a million of them."

-John O'Neil Green, JD

�Thanks again for your efforts, Pete. They mean an awful lot to a lot of people.� ��as an attorney, I am humbled by your knowledge and ability in navigating the law. THANK YOU for your hard work and sacrifice.�

-Eric Smithers, JD

"I am an attorney and want to give a testimonial to your book, which I find to be compelling. I am exercising these rights for myself and my adult children. I'm even considering making this my new avenue of law practice."

-Nancy "Ana" Garner, JD

Learn what these colleagues already know, then step forward and become part of a coordinated, mutually-supportive squadron focused on developing strategy and deploying the law in courtrooms across the country. There's a lot of suing that needs doing right now.

Are you ready for a challenge that'll put some real meaning behind all the effort you went through to get your credentials? Send me an email.

Are You Ready For More Power?

"Peter Hendrickson has done it again! 'Upholding The Law' does for individual liberties what 'Cracking the Code' did for tax law compliance: exposes the reader to the unalienable truth!"

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?
