Greetings from the great state of Mizz-er-y where the big primary for U.S. Senate is today. (Thank Heaven. The political ads are back to back on every broadcast medium.) President Trump did endorse a trio of representatives. The thing is, the establishment is pushing one candidate pretty hard for Blunt’s seat, and some of the MAGA people in the know are calling baloney on the polling coming out of that camp.
Strategists: Fake Missouri Poll Underestimates Trump Support in 2024 Primary
Remington Research Group, a political firm associated with Schmitt’s top consultant Jeff Roe, published a poll showing Trump leading the 2024 presidential primary field at 42 percent. The survey shows Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis at 18 percent, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) at 6 percent, and other candidates combining for 17 percent with 17 percent undecided. It was conducted from July 27 to July 28 by surveying 818 likely voters in Missouri.
While that sounds impressive for Trump—he is leading the potential 2024 field absolutely and even a fake poll cannot hide that fact—several in-the-know strategists told Breitbart News that the poll is obviously fake because it actually undercounts Trump’s support. In reality in Missouri, several GOP strategists told Breitbart News, the former president is much closer to 70 percent or higher in Missouri, and DeSantis is more likely than not in single digits.
“This is a completely fake poll commissioned by the RINO establishment who are looking to move on from President Trump,” a national Republican operative who advises candidates in both Missouri and Florida among other places told Breitbart News. “There is no way Missouri, a deep Trump state, would ever vote for someone like Ron DeSantis. President Trump is dominating the state and every other state in the country.”
And the establishment includes Attorney General Eric Schmitt. Unfortunately, Schmitt has several Republicans known to this writer bamboozled. Hoping Greitens can pull it out tomorrow.
Hmmm….
Okay, on to other election stuff:
Thanks to the effort that brought us “2000 Mules” regular Americans are getting into the act of safeguarding elections.
The information groups that brought the mules data to the fore have something planned next week where they are going to see MAGA movement influencers face to face to deliver news without electronic, government and mainstream media subterfuge (hopefully). The reality is that the other side WILL infiltrate and cause trouble at every turn. Our own Gail brought us this from Friday’s Flannel Friday and commentary from Gregg Phillips:
The left pulled crap at a Turning Point USA event in Tampa with Trump and DeSantis. Across the Street was an ‘anti-life’ pro-abortion rally that got violent and was dispersed by the cops. Within a few minutes, coming from the same direction the left just left from comes these guys with NAZI FLAGS and the media was trying to portray them as part of Turning point USA. And within a few minutes Whoopie Goldberg is on her show saying Turning Point USA brought the NAZIs out to defend them.
Well guess what. We have the GEO DATA, and we can tell you who these people are and we are going to track them down and we are going to follow their patterns of life and we are going to explain this to America and better than that we are going to bring the Anon researchers in and let them see HOW we do our Geo fencing, Let them see how we create the polygons and let them see what it looks like when you build a pattern of life. And we are going to INCLUDE THEM IN THIS and that is what Patriot Games is about.
Things are most definitely getting interesting.

Twitter May Lose To Elon Musk Because Of Slavery
Twitter is presently suing the electric car maker in a Delaware Court of Chancery, for “Specific Performance,” a remedy which would force Musk to complete the sale. However the problem which legal analysts are pointing to is that Twitter is not suing Elon Musk the company, but rather Elon Musk the individual citizen, and this raises issues in regards to the country’s 19th-century prohibition of slavery.
Analysts further point out that while there is precedence for specific performance in the Delaware Court system, the Musk-Twitter deal has a unique aspect. To date the one case where specific performance was issued as a remedy, was in a case where a corporation was ordered to purchase another corporation.
So far the Court of Chancery has never ordered an individual citizen to complete such a deal. Although from a legal perspective, corporations are considered persons, with many of the same rights and legal protections, there are some rights which are unique to natural persons. The 13th Amendment prohibition of slavery, is considered one of those rights, and it is considered one of the reasons the enforcement of specific performance is so rare.
Beyond American Carnage
I’ve always been a Nixonian optimist, and I prefer the thick Americanism of the ’68 convention speech. There is the same hard realism there, the same “rock-em, sock-em” style, the same disdain for the nation’s enemies and the drivers of its decline. Yet it was paired with a sunny vision of the best of America and the hearty communitarianism for which our 37th president once was so beloved.
It is remembered as a seminal “law-and-order” speech, but it was so much more than that. Even in 1968, Richard Nixon could still speak without irony about “a great American city,” about the silent majority of Americans who had not lost their minds, about a future in which the good life would be attainable for the average citizen.
I wanted to believe in 2017 that we could still do the same. Maybe everything has fallen apart in the last half-decade; maybe I just moved to Washington, D.C. Either way, when President Trump returned to the capital this week to deliver a kind of sequel to the “American carnage” speech at the America First Policy Institute, I found myself a whole lot more receptive.
Crime and Punishment
The question, then, is not when a fetus becomes a human life, but when hers becomes a life worth protecting with the same fervency as her mother’s—whether both lives have the same value. It is the same question Raskolnikov asks, or attempts to answer, when he murders the old pawnbroker and her sister, two old women who are not merely insignificant but perhaps even harmful to their society. Is it not just, he argues, for extraordinary men as himself to remove such obstacles to their higher goals? It is the same question that Nietzsche would ask a few decades later.
The Manchin pressure campaign: CEOs, labor bosses and Bill Gates
When Joe Manchin balked at the clean energy incentives in Democrats’ expansive spending bill two weeks ago, the corporate C-suites and union boardrooms jumped into action.
With hundreds of billions of dollars of incentives for manufacturing, electric vehicles, nuclear power and carbon capturing technology hanging in the balance, executives from some of the nation’s biggest companies and labor unions made their case to the Democratic West Virginia senator: The next generation of clean tech needed Washington’s backing to take off.
Clean energy manufacturing companies with plans to set up shop in Manchin’s state helped orchestrate the 13-day effort to change his mind, more than 20 people involved in the effort told POLITICO — eventually helping to get his backing for the $369 billion in incentives in the newly dubbed Inflation Reduction Act, H.R. 5376 (117). That push — which two of the people said included a call from Bill Gates, whose venture capital firm has backed a West Virginia-based battery start-up — was taking place alongside a campaign by other senators along with economist and inflation hawk Larry Summers to convince Manchin of the merits of the bill.
“It was across the board,” said National Wildlife Federation CEO Collin O’Mara, whoaccording to other participants was central in organizing the campaign to persuade Manchin to restart talks. “He heard from a wide range.”

Trump Stays in the Picture
For some time now, Michael Anton has been saying that the Establishment—Democrats tout court, of course, but also large swaths of the testosterone-challenged GOP—are dead set against allowing Donald Trump to run for president again. It’s been obvious from its beginnings that the January 6 committee—an illegally constituted kangaroo court—was interested in one thing and one thing only: eliminating Trump and his followers from the metabolism of American political life. The fact that its public face is Liz Cheney, a soon-to-be cashiered anti-Trump RINO, underscores Anton’s point, or part of it.
It’s not just the Democrats who cannot countenance Trump. It is the entire certified political class, what Anton calls the bureaucratic “uniparty” that runs the government and maintains the Overton Window that determines what is and what is not acceptable in the political life of the country. Donald Trump is not in the picture frame.
Donald Trump Is Each of Us: A Farm-Raised Salmon Forced to Swim Upstream or Die
Fighting the Great Reset One Inch at a Time
This fight against Great Reset communism is a struggle that many Americans did not see coming. As such, they’re just now “awakening” to the massive globalist threat of the World Economic Forum’s planned New World Order. They went to bed one night believing that most Americans shared a common sense of values, an appreciation for American history, and a patriotic dedication to liberty and freedom. They rose in the morning to discover that their Founding Fathers were now considered racist; their education system could no longer distinguish boys from girls; the national security surveillance state monitored all their moves; and socialism had taken over the free market economy under the guises of central bank money-printing, unsustainable government spending, ESG manipulation of stocks, racial redistribution programs, COVID-1984 fear campaigns, and apocalyptic tales of “climate change.”
The barrage of so many crises at once is alarming. It is also intentional. Sowing rampant doubt and uncertainty among a population creates opportunity for any hostile force. A disoriented and fractured society is a society ripe for conquering. Before every great invasion, target nations are first pounded with a cacophony of cannon blasts and blinded with a curtain of sulfuric smoke to create confusion, crumble defenses, and cripple resolve. That’s what we have today.
The Real MAGA Movement Does Not Back Down
While I am all for converts, I’m always skeptical of grifters. It should have been obvious that the GOP had gone off the rails prior to Trump. In the Bush years, the country lost its way fighting endless wars in the Middle East while abandoning all fiscal discipline. The fully Republican-controlled federal government presided over the continuing deindustrialization of America and did nothing to stop the disunifying policy of massive, sustained immigration. In 2008 and 2012, the Republican establishment ran sketchy neoconservatives for president, even though neoconservative policies had authored George W. Bush’s failures.
This record of failure and disrespect for voters’ repeatedly stated grievances is why so many people gravitated to Trump. He exposed the Republicans’ lame agenda of corporate giveaways and forever wars, while being equally critical of the Democrats’ treachery and counsel of weakness.

Okay, let me get this straight. Twitter’s current board wants to force Musk to buy the company. Once he does that, can’t he fire the board and the employees, and replace the entire lot of them, or simply shut down the company as a money-losing venture?
It gets better. Musk’s objection to completing the transaction is that the number of bots was wildly understated in Twitter’s public filings, and there were lots of people (the board, executives, auditors, etc) who should have known this. If they force him to complete the transaction, and he finds this to be true, he can sue any and all such parties for securities fraud. They’re going to come back and say it was an accounting estimate, but he’ll have all the evidence to prove that it was unreasonable.
If I were Twitter’s auditors, I’d be sweatin’ bullets around now….
Heh, heh Exactly …

Just THINK! The USDA under Obama, stocked up on weapons and ammo and so did every other Deep State Bureaucracy.
FORBES: Why Are Federal Bureaucrats Buying Guns And Ammo? $158 Million Spent By Non-Military AgenciesOct 20, 2017
From Firearm Owners Against Crime
[QUOTE]
Where are all the guns and ammo purchased under Obama? :: 06/20/2020
During the last two years of the Obama administration, some unusual purchases were made. Large quantities of ammunition were purchased, as were firearms, mostly for somewhat obscure agencies or agencies with no real need for such weaponry.
Estimates are that over 1 billion rounds of ammunition were ordered, which resulted in making ammunition scarce for the normal civilian market.
Also significant was Obama’s troublesome statement made during his campaign, as follows
What national security objectives? Surely, he is not talking about arming the civilian population, as he wants to disarm us. Why would he want such a “civilian security force”? Could it be that he realized he couldn’t use the U.S. military to enforce his social dysfunction for multiple reasons? One is the Posse Comitatus laws, and another was the simple fact that the military likely would refuse his orders.
Looking below, we can see he was arming agencies under his Executive Branch control.
The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service spent $4.77 million purchasing shotguns, 7.62mm caliber rifles, night-vision goggles, propane cannons, liquid explosives, pyro supplies, buckshot, LP gas cannons, drones, remote-control helicopters, thermal cameras, military waterproof thermal infrared scopes and more.
The SBA loaded up their arsenals with Glock pistols.
The Fish folks spent approximately $410,000 on their Glocks and rifles and modified their Glocks with silencers.
The Department of Health and Human Services was outfitted with sophisticated weaponry normally carried by Special Forces, stored at an undisclosed location.
Others include:
We are now seeing anarchist groups like Antifa, BLM, and others carrying nice weaponry. Just look at a recent photo of a CHAZ resident with his tricked-out AR-15 or M-16.
There are now several left-wing gun clubs such as the Socialist Rifle Association, Huey P. Newton Gun Club, Trigger Warning Queer & Trans Gun Club, and the John Brown Gun Club, with the last one often asked to provide security around the Seattle area for protests and rallies.
We now know that Obama and Holder set up selling guns to the Mexican drug cartels in what is known as Fast and Furious.
Perhaps it is high time that the president orders a detailed inventory and audit of these weapons and ammunition. If anything is missing, where is it? Also, has any of these weapons been used in any known crimes?
Most have probably forgotten about Obama’s aforementioned statement and his subsequent unusual purchases for odd agencies, but maybe we had better wake up and take a look around before it is too late.

I remember that. Also people found the storage places for the weapons. I believe it was supposed to be conspiracy . I never thought it was. When I have more time I will read all what you posted.
I question the quality of any article that talks about firearm silencers.
There is no such thing as a silencer, except in the movies. Likely that is where these schlock writers got their info for their writings.
Pistol Suppressors: The Best Options in 2022 – Silencer Central
And Capitol Armory is selling them.
Pistol Suppressors | Silencers – Capitol Armory
I do not have firearms. All I know from remembered reading is the suppressor/silencer slows down the bullet.
The average person assumes silencer is a derivative of silence. Using that word in connection with firearms is false advertising IMO.
The only time a firearm is silent is when it is not being used.
Muffled would be a better term I think.
True, but nevertheless “silencer” has stuck, and it’s ridiculous, IMHO to simply downcheck a site just for using the term.
If, on the other hand it becomes clear the author thinks it will completely silence the gun because s/he is taking the term at face value–then you can assume s/he is an uneducated ignoranus. (not a typo. it means ignorant asshole.)
Doesn’t matter to me what the author thinks, ultimately. It tends to mislead the audience, a group that already has to deal with fact-checkers and twitter-twats spewing misinfo.
I sometimes wonder about all the military age illegal immigrants coming into the country. I wonder where they might have gone. I wonder about all the excess arms and ammunition purchased by someone in the swamp. I wonder about evil intentions.
Yup. 2 million is a nice size army.
AND
they are already scattered all over the USA.
Unless they are trained before they come over here, then scattered as sleepers, it will be necessary to bring them together and feed and shelter them to train them. I think we’d notice that.
Weren’t they passing out cell phones as well.

Thank you A THOUSAND TIMES for that clip of Matt Gaetz addressing the DODGE shill, and just leveling him with one truth bomb after another.
OMG, that was a thing of beauty.
Just shut it down. It’s evil. DOJ is what the founders fought against.
Guy kept saying they let court filings speak for them. That’s the point. We have silence when there should be a racket. Where are those court filings? There not being made and that’s the whole point of this exercise. No one should be surprised when the DOJ is called Dodge and the FBI is called FIB.
LOL! They really do “dodge”! It’s hilarious.
Gaetz should have said “WHAT court filings?!”
Boom!
Then hit him with “Justice delayed is justice denied? Remember that one? Am I ringin’ any bells here?”
At which point Rep. Wolf Moon says “Martin Luther King Jr. was fond of that one. Did you people have anything to do with his death? As in, did the FBI have a ‘relationship’ with James Earl Ray, anything like – I don’t know – maybe RAY EPPS?”
AMEN! Wouldn’t that be awesome?
Going in for the kill before the cat was done playing with the mouse…that would force the issue to the surface.
He was so spot on with everything else, he’s likely kicking himself for not thinking of that, but then he only had so much time allotted and likely didn’t want to get get off his points.
Probably.

The Columbus Dispatch
Dec. 2020
An agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms has filed a federal lawsuit accusing two Columbus police officers of using excessive force against him while he was working in his official capacity.
Agent James Burk, a 16-year veteran of the ATF, said in the lawsuit he was working a “routine” assignment on July 7. That afternoon, he went to a home on the 3300 block of Edgebrook Drive near Dublin to retrieve a shotgun from someone who was not permitted to have a firearm.
———————
DEERFIELD TWP., Ohio – A federal agent is charged with stealing wine from a Kroger store after employees grew suspicious and alerted authorities.
Police say ATF agent James Burk took expensive wine to the self-checkout lane and charged himself a small percent of the cost.
Burk was charged by the Warren County Sheriff’s Office for stealing more than $200 in wine from the Landen Kroger.
According to deputies, they caught Burk going to the self-checkout in August and paying $19 for four bottles of wine that had a total price tag of $222.
The report says Burk bought bottles of Stag’s Leap Wine priced at $62.99 and $33.99, but the code he entered charged him only $4.99.
According to the report, Kroger employees had grown suspicious of Burk and began watching him. They said he did the same thing multiple times.
We went to Burk’s house for comment but no one came to the door. We also contacted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. A spokeswoman said the agency is aware of the charge and that it is handling the matter internally but would not comment further.

Nasty stuff.
I always liked Instapundit’s view that BATFE should be a chain of convenience stores instead of a Federal agency.
My grandfather would tell of times his uncles would send him into town with the farm truck at the age of 14 so he could bring ’em a case of dynamite for blowing stumps.
LOL! (X2)
Hard to believe that ATF would allow pussy Burk’s lawsuit to go forward as it will demonstrate in spades that Burk was unresponsive to cop’s directives. (Cops who were facing potential lethal threat)
Stag’s Leap is good stuff! I hope they put his ass in jail.

Just for fun, imagine if we repudiated the national debt. “Oh, no! Nobody would ever lend to us again!!!” Like that’s a problem. “Oh, no — the Federal Reserve would be bankrupt!!!” Yep — couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of schmucks. “This would cripple Congress….” OK, stop — you’ve got me right there.
“We’re all living like we’re on welfare!”
Seems like a “doable problem”.
Yep – it has to happen to get out this mess created by insane criminals for over a century.

Don’t believe banks create the money they lend? Neither did the jury in a landmark Minnesota case, until they heard the evidence. First National Bank of Montgomery vs. Daly (1969) was a courtroom drama worthy of a movie script.3
Defendant Jerome Daly opposed the bank’s foreclosure on his $14,000 home mortgage loan on the ground that there was no consideration for the loan. “Consideration” (“the thing exchanged”) is an essential element of a contract.
Daly, an attorney representing himself, argued that the bank had put up no real money for his loan. The courtroom proceedings were recorded by Associate Justice Bill Drexler, whose chief role, he said, was to keep order in a highly charged courtroom where the attorneys were threatening a fist fight. Drexler hadn’t given much credence to the theory of the defense, until Mr. Morgan, the bank’s president, took the stand. To everyone’s surprise, Morgan admitted that the bank routinely created money “out of thin air” for its loans, and that this was standard banking practice. “It sounds like fraud to me,” intoned Presiding Justice Martin Mahoney amid nods from the jurors. In his court memorandum, Justice Mahoney stated:

So the “next thing” really is Climate Change!

Vigilant Citizen, in its Sinister Sites section, has an article about Bank of (un)America’s Corporate Headquarters, and the Occult imagery and paintings there.
Needless to say, comtempt for their customers, the common man, and indeed the USA, the world, and GOD is on full display.

A brief excerpt:
The three frescoes ruling over the lobby of the Bank of America Corporate Center.
…..

(end excerpt)
Please have a look at the whole article, as it reveals a side of BofA that most of us don’t realize exists; yet it is the side that guides them, a darkness that pervades them, and attempts to stifle us, our dreams, our children, and our future…

Womder what A.P. Giannini would think???
Interesting.
When BoA bought out a local bank, they donated three HUGE George Caleb Bingham paintings to the Saint Louis Art Museum. The artwork is PURE Americana and used to hang in the lobby of the bank. Now it hangs at SLAM.
Seems BofA is no longer BofA, having been bought by NationsBank of Charlotte for a song after having suffered the effects of a ruinous failed deal… Russians, no less. Only the name remains from BofA; the rest is Nationasbank, who (at least in Kalifornistan) had a HORRIBLE reputation…
As the paintings in question are in Charlotte, they, and their darkness, belong to NationsBank, whose CEO took over the merged company (dirty deal done in 1998)…
Wonder what spirit cooking was being “catered” at their meetings…
(BorA also had problems loaning money to Mexico back in th 1950s; Mexico defaulted, the US gubmint paid off the loans and penalties, and the cacle repeated. Sounds like money laundering to me. Sauros was involved…]…..
BOA who is apparently overleveraged and cooked books, is the (lowest hanging fruit) target for the ‘silver squeeze’ and the ‘end the fed’ anon army of apes. They may be sacrificed by CBers for the rest of Big Banking to survive
Couldn’t happen to a more dysfunctionally stupid organization.
Late 80s, they still had to do everything on paper then close at 3 so they could bang it all into computers.
One might say, “Too big to flail”…
Ironically, they were founded as a bank for the common man…
Nationsbank had/has other ideas… only the name survives, an empty husk of what once was. The remainder is the rapacious, rampant greed of Nationsbank and the GEBs running it…
Just like everything else in Kalifornistan, everything the DEMONRAT Deathmocrats touch turns to $hit….
I hate to say it but without the conman man the banks would have no workers , Industry the same and without farmers they would have no food. They better tread common man well many save take their money to the bank.
Sorry but i think these people are idiots.
“Regular people have to much leverage”
They have no clue what will happen when they take the leverage.
What I know about American history, it is not much, that is what in sighted the separation from Britain. People wanted their freedom not to be enslaved and bogged down with taxes to King George. Did I get it wrong?
No, you are right. The Revolution was mostly fought over the people being taxed and ruled without representation. Sounds familiar, right? Are we “represented” in Washington today?
We are not represented !
We are trying to change it and the voting in 2022 sending the right people to DC. This is our last chance.
I agree.

Last Chance to use the BALLOT BOX…

Three down, one to go.
RESENTED, by the Swamp, is more like it.
As of August first, I have a new Primary Care Physician (PCP). So I called to schedule an appointment. I was told that the new doc wasn’t in their medical group’s system yet and I had to wait until I got my card (which the people changing the PCP had said was 10-14 days) or contact the insurance peeps.
I had things to do and tests to run, so I contacted the insurance peeps. The very nice rep attempted to fax me a substitute insurance card, but she couldn’t get fax machines to work (I’m not a fan of health information by email, and I discovered that they had my phone number as 1-408-555-1212 [try this with your own area code]).
I ended up driving over there (I’ve been there before. They’re always startled when real people show up. They’re especially startled this time because I’ve got a bunch of facial growth waiting for some photos and green-screen video of “Fly, you fools!” [
] and “…..it’s….” [
] before I get rid of it [because I am never, ever, ever, ever doing this again].
So I get my card-substitute in my hot little paw, drive home, and pick up the mail from my mailbox at about 4:30…….and it’s got my honest-to-goodness new card in the mail.
Really, I want to be so nice for the rep who waded into battle with fax machines of ancient magick on my behalf, bravely facing a challenge she did not ken.
But right now, I need to go and feed the new PCP’s group the revised card.
I’m told that new PCP’s will do an initial exam before they’ll issue lab orders, so that’s next on the horizon.
In case anyone is wondering, this started back with the toilet replacement fiasco back around October/November. Supposedly, it had something to do with mowing my facial hair when it was about 1/8″ and causing clogs. I dislike shaving daily (and putting on starched shirts and silk ties), but after about 1/8″ inch it starts to look like I have radiation sickness because of the bare and rough patches. It also starts to itch. So (at the time) I mowed it. Mind you, it would be a poor sort of plumbing that clogged with 1/8″ beard buzzes while passing the Fiancee’s tresses.
During the toilet fiasco, I stopped mowing it and just let it grow. This would have been just before Thanksgiving. The original thought was that I could mow it outside, escape blame for toilet clogs, and let birds gather nest material from when I mowed it. Then it rained; and was cold; and rained more; and was also cold. So it never got cut, and approached Gandalf levels.
At this point, it started becoming a “thing” to photograph it before losing it. And that’s where I am now. Get the photos, all this stuff goes away.
I am a problem salver as most women are would have salved the mowing problem. To toilet problem. 🤓
It is interesting that they would use “555” for your phone number – it has always been toll -free directory assistance. TI4 was always time, WE6 was always weather, all with any four last numbers. Most people used 1212 since it was easier to dial on a rotary dial. I believe they all still exist.
Fishy50 no longer exists, it was aviation and nautical (surface and aloft) detailed weather report. Pipeline no longer exists; it was three of the same numbers except 555 and any four last numbers. There was a tone on the line that would stop, and you could talk quickly between the tone sounding. People from all over the place were on there not just local and you wouldn’t be charged a toll call.
Just be sure you don’t end up looking like this (unless you have an orchestra like this in front of you 🙂 )…..
I have not given y’all any “tales from WokePress (wordpress.com) recently, so here is the latest.
As you may know, I’ve done my best to avoid any WP.com plugins, but we do have JetPack so that people can have the bell notifier. One of the advantages, however, of our LEAVING WP.com hosting, was that I could throw the horrible Akismet under the bus, never to return.
As you may remember, Akismet was used by the enemy to actually attack members of the site, and to try to frustrate them into leaving. JetPack was, too, but we were able to defeat the hacks into JetPack that were used to harass people.
I did come to believe that WP and Akismet are in some kind of relationship with spam producers, and basically use spam to sell the cure for spam, mostly as a way to get on sites.
How bad is Akismet?
To give you an idea, Akismet absolutely wanted to ban both Duchess and GA/FL. I had a hell of a time keeping several others out of spam, including Scott467, T3/gudthots, and some others I can’t recall immediately. Ah, yes. Phoenix, Marica and Pat Frederick.
Notice any patterns there?
Well, anyway, due to changes at the hosting level, I had to make some changes at the spam filtration level. No biggie – the changes worked beautifully.
BUT then I immediately get some notification from JetPack that I “need a security plan” – which means they want me to upgrade JetPack to give them more permissions, and bring in Akismet.
NO, WokePress – I HAVE a “security plan” – and YOU ALL are explicitly NOT IN IT, so that people can have freedom of speech!
Sad, but that’s WokePress for you, always angling to get back in.
I read over at Chiefio’s (via another ian) that JoNova is having a heck of a time with WurstPress… probably Aski(not well)met…

Hi, Forrest and Jo!
I run a blog (theqtree.com) which was formerly on wordpress.com, and was forced to use Akismet for spam, on their free plan. When our friends at theconservativetreehouse.com were booted off wordpress.com hosting for political reasons, we left in sympathy and as a preventative measure.
I literally JUMPED at the opportunity to abandon Akismet at that time. Here is why.
Our site is basically social media – 80% open threads, 20% articles. We have only about 100 posters, but lots of comments. Live discussion is why people post. It’s like Twitter or Facebook.
I spent weeks dealing with Akismet to get posters out of the spam bucket. Their system does NOT learn how to deal with “false drops”. There is no way to tell Akismet not to put posters in spam. THAT is absolutely unreasonable. I’m a retired software developer. It is dead simple to have a program “learn” from manual rescues from the spam bucket. Even a stupid, simple, manual list would be a reasonable fix. Akismet and WordPress both must have some unstated reason they don’t implement a simple solution to their top user-perceived problem.
At some points we actually had to make life “rough” for Akismet by creating bug reports for EVERY single valid post that was sent into the spam bucket. I enlisted the users to help me do this. We made ourselves absolute pricks and bitches to both WordPress and Akismet. THAT worked. Even better, I published some blog posts ravaging Akismet. That prompted even better reprieves.
We found that this was very effective for the short term, but then a few weeks or months later, the problems would return.
We also had problems with JetPack locking out users with a “you’re posting too fast” pop-up. I didn’t suspect JetPack, until the husband of one commenter clued me into the setting that was responsible (block brute force attacks). Sure enough, that was it – we turned off the setting and the problem stopped.
Later, JetPack returned that behavior with a different setting – turning THAT setting off solved the problem.
It is my belief that somebody was harassing us in a deniable fashion. I even came to believe that WordPress.com and Akismet have some kind of unholy symbiotic relationship with spam authors – perhaps to allow IC access to data once “spam needs to be dealt with”.
There is also the possibility that third parties have learned how to “trigger” Akismet to deniably harass political enemies. Nina Jankowicz types have to be up to such tricks, IMO. We found that certain viewpoints and “productive news-bringers” tended to be the victims of Akismet.
Whatever. I have used other spam solutions, and they work fine, without Akismet’s baggage. WP Cerber is almost overly aggressive, while Anti-Spam Bee is very easy and just puts stuff in spam reliably.
I don’t trust Akismet AT ALL. And that’s why I wanted to state my case. You can search on terms site:theqtree.com and akismet to get more information from posts and comments. And remember that with plugins, you can just deactivate Akismet and try something else for a while, and see if it solves the problems.
Best wishes! I do love dropping in here to read – especially science articles!
Wow. Thanks Wolf. Very well said, and very informative. I remember all the issues with half-Askimet, and also that people here were having to push back hard to stay out of the bin. I think Marica also has some “bin loading” issues…
Also, IIRC, Askimet is in SF, Sodom-by-the-Bay, so their cloven hooves are far from clean…
I hope Jo can get her issues sorted. It’s also need how a lot of the various skeptic sites are somehow feeding (don’t know the right word, but I’m burning breakfast right now) each other. I think after ClimateGate, and not COVIDgate, there are a whole lot more “Doubting/Discerning” Thomases (and Trixies) all over the world. And the QTree and the other trees have a huge part in that…
This recent UN thing about conspiracy theories is aimed STRAIGHT AT US.
And that’s OK. When the TIP OF THE SPEAR is aligned toward TRUTH, we have no fear of it breaking.
They KNEW the day might come, when people would SEE that these shots were the literal ACTUAL implementation of “population control” as part of “medicine”. Even DOCTORS had to be fooled as part of it.
This is going to be a HUGE FIGHT now.
Johnny pisses in soup?

‘Resist, Wake Up, Stop Obeying’: Holocaust Survivor Draws Parallels in Current Society to Nazi Germany
EXCELLENT article!!!
I found the article copied here, where it’s not behind a pay wall:
https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/17475230/holocaust-survivor-draws-parallels-in-current-society-to-nazi-germany
A couple quotes out of many that stuck out to me:
“Genocide isn’t new to the United States, Sharav said, as it was Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court Oliver Wendell Holmes who voted in favor of the 8-1 majority opinion in the 1921 case Buck v. Bell, which upheld the Virginia Sterilization Act of 1924 and the forced sterilization of Carrie Buck, who was alleged to be mentally defective.
Holmes said it would be better to prevent the mentally disabled from being born than to allow them to “sap the strength of the state” or “let them starve for their imbecility.”
_____________
Justice Holmes was a flat-out monster. In America, the always disgusting, deceitful, lying, corrupt State exists to SERVE the people — NOT the other way around.
Even as a juristic fraud, Holmes couldn’t help but know that.
It is the endlessly corrupt State which must always be restrained, which should never be allowed to “sap” the strength of the People. Hitler types, like Oliver Wendell Holmes, always get that part backwards.
.
.
.
“The principle that sustains compulsory vaccinations is broad enough to cover cutting Fallopian tubes,” the justice wrote in his opinion. “Three generations of imbeciles are enough.”
__________
Someone hand that imbecile a mirror.
There are only two types of governments.
The first type protects the INDIVIDUAL.
The second type PROTECTS THE STATE.
All governments can be divided into those two types. The USA was created to PROTECT the individual and NOT the State (aka Oligarchy)
“The APU, before opening fire from HIMARS, consult with the United States.
This was stated in an interview with The Telegraph by the representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Vadim Skibitsky.”
https://t.me/sputnik/9929
“Ukrainian intelligence consults with the United States before using American HIMARS.
Washington can cancel strikes if it is not satisfied with the designated targets. Vadym Skibitsky, deputy head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, confirmed the information that Ukrainian militants have “good satellite images” from “related intelligence services.”
It turns out that the order to kill the prisoners of war of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and Azov in Yelenovka was given by the NATO command. In general, all strikes resulting in the death of civilians are the result of the military plan of the NATO command.
There is nothing surprising in this, because the collective West has a lot of experience in the destruction of civilians.”

Verse of the Day for Tuesday, August 2, 2022
✟
“That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.”
Psalms 83:18 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
BABY LIVES MATTER
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
zelensky, and through him obviously NATO, is working hand in glove with the NWO reset, crippling europe and the west with energy shortage and inflation…
“Ukraine limiting Russian gas flow to EU – Gazprom”
https://www.rt.com/business/559976-ukraine-limiting-russian-gas-eu/
“Russia’s EU-bound natural gas supplies, pumped via Ukraine, are limited to one remaining entry point, while Kiev refuses to reopen a second transit station, energy giant Gazprom said on Monday.
“Gazprom is supplying Russian gas for transit through Ukraine in the volume confirmed by the Ukrainian side through the Sudzha gas metering station – 41.7 million cubic meters as of August 1. The application to reopen the Sohranovka gas metering system has been rejected,” Gazprom’s representative told reporters.”
Zelenky is not a friend of Europe not USA. He is a dangerous man with no empathy for humanity.
He is another NAZI.
Yes he is and a scam artist scamming us out of 40 billion. Stupid Biden.
Biden got a cut of that 40 billion. I am sure Z only got to keep about 40 million and the rest was split up amongst our politicians.
Guess what he’s doing with all that excess gas?!?!???
My hair is standing up 🙂
Just like our weapons, he’s probably selling on the black market for money!
;0
WOW – what a great Daily Open, Deplorable Patriot! Thank you for the laughs, the research, the time and hard work you obviously put in to gather all these riches for us to gobble up.
Thanks! This quote literally describes me to a ‘T.’
Recognition of self-responsibility used to be “adulthood”. We literally became FREE as adults.
THEY offer fake eternal youth.
So true!
People now in their thirties act like they are fifteen!
Why is that ? We keep young adults as children through college and keep them on mom and dads health insurance until 26.
In most countries and as it used to be here young people had responsibility way before 21. Being drafted was not all that bad for maturity. People married 18-22 and had responsibilities.
Kids had to work if they lived on a farm or the family had business.
I am astounded that we keep children so long as children but we allow adult privilege without responsibility. Driving is one of them .
Farm kids were driving the tractor (or horses) by age FIVE. I know more than one who was GLAD to be in school to get away from following the rear-end of a mule. My ex drove the tractor at five and other friends lived in ‘Shot Gun’ houses with no running water, no electric and hand pumps and outhouses.
We are really only a generation or two away from those people but people were CONVINCED that children were some how these delicate hot-house flowers incapable of tolerating ANY STRESS of ANY KIND.
I grew up with no running water and one stove in the kitchen for warmth. The oven was turned off in the night.
At 8 in fields to collect the potatoes walking behind the horse pulled plow. Did it every year.
I went shopping for people who could not age seven and age ten I babysat.
I put my kids to work around the house in summer. They learned how to cook , keep house iron sow on buttons knit . They learned how to tend a garden and cut grass.
From little on they made they beds outcome appropriate to age. They helped set the table and clean up and tuned doing dishes.
They worked in college and also in summer. They did not drive until they could pay their own insurance. People thought I was a terrible mother so be it.
They turned out financially responsible and are hard workers.
You and your husband are examples of growing up with responsibility.
“They learned how to tend a garden and cut grass.”
_____________
That’s why my Dad had me, so he could stop cutting grass.
And I didn’t even wear a helmet 👍 😁
Probably no safety goggles either!
Before kids cut grass I did. I did everything in the house outside the house wash the car tend to children. My husband worked long hours and also went back to the University. Between work and home work there was no time. That is what men did to provide for the family. He still works teaching classes not as many though. He needs that connection and it keeps him fit mentally.
My paternal grandfather lived in a two-room tarpaper board-and-batten shack in Colorado until the late ’80’s. My dad [civil engineer] and my uncle [plumber] went back in the early 70’s and put in gas central heat [replaced a coal stove], then an internal flush toilet [replaced outhouse] the following year. Note well the order.
Oh, I agree! My daughter could get a job, have a driver’s license, and quit high school without my permission, but if she got in trouble, I was to blame.
Thankfully, she grew into a genuinely decent person.
“In most countries and as it used to be here young people had responsibility way before 21.”
____________
They also taught young people how to provide for themselves, how to earn a living, in a system where one person could earn enough to support a family.
Today, nobody teaches young people anything, at least not anything that will ever help them get ahead.
“I am astounded that we keep children so long as children but we allow adult privilege without responsibility. Driving is one of them .”
______________
That is what we are told, but it’s not true.
The Constitution guarantees our Right of freedom of movement, and the Supreme Court has ruled that freedom of movement to be by whatever means is common. And besides walking, there is no means of transportation more common than a car.
We can also know and be sure that operating a car requires no license because for many years after the car became a common mode of transportation, no license was required, or even existed. No such thing as a ‘license’ to drive existed when the horseless carriage was invented.
People drove all over the place, without any license, and Common Law applied to their activity. Once something is established in Common Law, civil code or statute or legislation cannot undo it.
For example, that is why a family Bible, with names and dates of birth recorded therein, is still (and must always remain) a valid form of identification.
Before there were photographs, before there were birth certificates, before there were state IDs, a family Bible was a common means of identification, and that’s what many people used. It is well established in Common Law, and no code or statute can prevent it or undo it.
Legalities and statute and code can obfuscate the truth, but Common Law is the superior form of law, it is foundational, it’s what our Constitution is based upon.
.
Excerpt from the introduction to a course on this subject:
Right to Travel:
“Language is a key control mechanism, so we differentiate the language of rights from the codified legalese that has become the standard terminology of these times.
The driver’s license is a means of control. It subrogates a right for a privilege and gives jurisdiction by novation where none would need exist. We examine alternative means of identification that meet the requirements of law.
Vehicle registration creates a split title, giving equitable title to the possessor of the car and legal title to the state. We discuss how to retain full ownership of your property, and thus withhold jurisdiction over it, instead of signing the legal title away.
Insurance, by limiting liability through a federal franchise company, creates a presumption of law that the car is a vehicle as defined in the code, operating in the public and subject to the jurisdiction of the police and courts. But there are alternatives that meet and exceed the standard of moral duty to protect others from hazard… without giving up jurisdiction and wholesaling one’s rights away.”
THE RIGHT TO TRAVEL
DESPITE ACTIONS OF POLICE AND LOCAL COURTS,
HIGHER COURTS HAVE RULED THAT AMERICAN CITIZENS
HAVE A RIGHT TO TRAVEL WITHOUT STATE PERMITS
By Police Officer Jack McLamb, Ret.
Reprinted from Aid and Abet, a newsletter for members of Law Enforcement, Military, National Guard and Coast Guard
“For years professionals within the criminal justice system have acted on the belief that traveling by motor vehicle was a “privilege” that was given to a citizen only after approval by their state government in the form of a permit or license to drive. In other words, the individual must be granted the privilege before his use of the state highways was considered legal.
Legislators, police officers, and court officials are becoming aware that there are court decisions that disprove the belief that driving is a privilege and therefore requires government approval in the form of a license. Presented here are some of these cases:
CASE #1: “The use of the highway for the purpose of travel and transportation is not a mere privilege, but a common fundamental right of which the public and individuals cannot rightfully be deprived.” – Chicago Motor Coach v. Chicago, 169 NE 221.
CASE #2: “The right of the citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, either by carriage or by automobile, is not a mere privilege which a city may prohibit or permit at will, but a common law right which he has under the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Thompson v. Smith, 154 SE 579.
It could not be stated more directly or conclusively that citizens of the states have a common law right to travel, without approval or restriction (license), and that this right is protected under the U.S Constitution.
“The right to travel is a part of the liberty of which the citizen cannot be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment.” Kent v. Dulles (1958) 357 US 116, 125.
“The right to travel is a well-established common right that does not owe its existence to the federal government. It is recognized by the courts as a natural right.” – Schactman v. Dulles 96 App DC 287, 225 F2d 938, at 941.
As hard as it is for those of us in law enforcement to believe, there is no room for speculation in these court decisions. American citizens do indeed have the inalienable right to use the roadways unrestricted in any manner as long as they are not damaging or violating property or rights of others.
Government — in requiring the people to obtain drivers licenses, and accepting vehicle inspections and DUI/DWI roadblocks without question — is restricting, and therefore violating, the people’s common law right to travel.
Is this a new legal interpretation on this subject? Apparently not. This means that the beliefs and opinions our state legislators, the courts, and those in law enforcement have acted upon for years have been in error. Researchers armed with actual facts state that case law is overwhelming in determining that to restrict the movement of the individual in the free exercise of his right to travel is a serious breach of those freedoms secured by the U.S. Constitution and most state constitutions. That means that the encroachment by means of licensing and roadblocks is unlawful.
The revelation that the American citizen has always had the inalienable right to travel raises profound questions for those who are involved in making and enforcing state laws.
The first of such questions may very well be this: If the states have been enforcing laws that are unconstitutional on their face, it would seem that there must be some way that a state can legally put restrictions — such as licensing requirements, mandatory insurance, vehicle registration, vehicle inspections to name just a few — on a citizen’s constitutionally protected rights. Is that so?
For the answer, let us look, once again, to the U.S. courts for a determination of this very issue.
In Hurtado v. California (1884) 110 US 516, the U.S. Supreme Court states very plainly: “The state cannot diminish rights of the people.”
And in Bennett v. Boggs, 1 Baldw 60, “Statutes that violate the plain and obvious principles of common right and common reason are null and void.”
Would we not say that these judicial decisions are straight to the point– that there is no lawful method for government to put restrictions or limitations on rights belonging to the people?
Other cases are even more straight forward:
“The assertion of federal rights, when plainly and reasonably made, is not to be defeated under the name of local practice.” Davis v. Wechsler, 263 US 22, at 24.
“Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them.” Miranda v. Arizona, (1966) 384 US 436, 491.
“The claim and exercise of a constitutional right cannot be converted into a crime.” Miller v. US, 230 F 486, at 489.
“There can be no sanction or penalty imposed upon one because of this exercise of constitutional rights.” Sherer v. Cullen, 481 F 946.
We could go on, quoting court decision after court decision; however, the Constitution itself answers our question – Can a government legally put restrictions on the Rights of the American people at anytime, for any reason? The answer is found in Article Six of the U.S. Constitution:
“This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof;…shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.” – Supremacy clause.
In the same Article, it says just who within our government that is bound by this Supreme Law:
“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution…”
Here’s an interesting question. Is ignorance of these laws an excuse for such acts by officials?
If we are to follow the letter of the law, (as we are sworn to do), this places officials who involve themselves in such unlawful acts in an unfavorable legal situation. For it is a felony and federal crime to violate or deprive citizens of their constitutionally protected rights.
Our system of law dictates that there are only two ways to legally remove a right belonging to the people.
These are (1) by lawfully amending the constitution, or (2) by a person knowingly waiving a particular right.
Some of the confusion on our present system has arisen because many millions of people have waived their right to travel unrestricted and volunteered into the jurisdiction of the state. Those who have knowingly given up these rights are now legally regulated by state law and must acquire the proper permits and registrations.
There are basically two groups of people in this category:
(1) Citizens who involve themselves in commerce upon the highways of the state.
Here is what the courts have said about this:
“…For while a citizen has the right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that right does not extend to the use of the highways…as a place for private gain. For the latter purpose, no person has a vested right to use the highways of this state, but it is a privilege…which the (state) may grant or withhold at its discretion…” State v. Johnson, 245 P 1073.
There are many court cases that confirm and point out the difference between the Right of the citizen to travel and a government privilege and there are numerous other court decisions that spell out the jurisdiction issue in these two distinctly different activities. However, because of space restrictions, we will leave it to officers to research it further for themselves.
(2) The second group of citizens that is legally under the jurisdiction of the state are those citizens who have voluntarily and knowingly waived their right to travel unregulated and unrestricted by requesting placement under such jurisdiction through the acquisition of a state driver’s license, vehicle registration, mandatory insurance, etc. (In other words, by contract.)
We should remember what makes this legal and not a violation of the common law right to travel is that they knowingly volunteer by contract to waive their rights. If they were forced, coerced or unknowingly placed under the state’s powers, the courts have said it is a clear violation of their rights.
This in itself raises a very interesting question. What percentage of the people in each state have applied for and received licenses, registrations and obtained insurance after erroneously being advised by their government that it was mandatory?
Many of our courts, attorneys and police officials are just becoming informed about this important issue and the difference between privileges and Rights.
We can assume that the majority of those Americans carrying state licenses and vehicle registrations have no knowledge of the rights they waived in obeying laws such as these that the U.S. Constitution clearly states are unlawful, i.e. laws of no effect – laws that are not laws at all.
An area of serious consideration for every police officer is to understand that the most important law in our land which he has taken an oath to protect, defend, and enforce, is not state laws and city or county ordinances, but the law that supersedes all other laws — the U.S. Constitution.
If laws in a particular state or local community conflict with the supreme law of our nation, there is no question that the officer’s duty is to uphold the U.S. Constitution.
Every police officer should keep the following U.S. court ruling — discussed earlier — in mind before issuing citations concerning licensing, registration, and insurance:
“The claim and exercise of a constitutional [protected] right cannot be converted into a crime.” Miller v. US, 230 F 486, 489.
And as we have seen, traveling freely, going about one’s daily activities, is the exercise of a most basic Right.”
This IS great news. Should not even have to discuss something like this. Supposed to be FREE.
Unfortunately, we saw with Covidiocy, some Sheriff’s stopped folks on county roads. Can’t recall where it was specifically. Southeast state(s).
Hell for that matter, NM guvner shutdown towns forbidding motorists to even exit I40. Gallup, NM, IIRC.
I gotta go back and read this post closer. Only glossed over.
There is no shortage of information on the subject, but there is an abundance.
BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF NOTICE FOR DISMISSAL
FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
by Bob Hardison
The following legal brief has been used in multiple states to support a successful demand for dismissal of charges of “driving without a license.”
The forgotten legal maxim is that free people have a right to travel on the roads which are provided by their servants for that purpose, using ordinary transportation of the day. Licensing cannot be required of free people, because taking on the restrictions of a license requires the surrender of a right.
The driver’s license can be required of people who use the highways for trade, commerce, or hire; that is, if they earn their living on the road, and if they use extraordinary machines on the roads. In other words, if you are not using the highways for profit, you cannot be required to have a driver’s license.
This brief or the right it demonstrates is no substitute for either being safe on the road or learning the subject of rights versus regulations thoroughly before attempting to use or act upon this information.
This brief may be used in whole or in part for informational purposes or in court with the author’s permission. Just be absolutely certain that all citations and references are factual and directly related to your case.

NOW, comes the Accused, appearing specially and not generally or voluntarily, but under threat of arrest for failing to do so, with this “BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF NOTICE FOR DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION,” stating as follows:
ARGUMENT
If ever a judge understood the right of the public to use the public roads, it was Justice Tolman of the Supreme Court of the State of Washington.
Justice Tolman stated:
“Complete freedom of the highways is so old and well established a blessing that we have forgotten the days of the Robber Barons and toll roads, and yet, under an act like this, arbitrarily administered, the highways may be completely monopolized, if, through lack of interest, the people submit, then they may look to see the most sacred of their liberties taken from them one by one, by more or less rapid encroachment.” Robertson vs. Department of Public Works, 180 Wash 133, 147.
The words of Justice Tolman ring most prophetically in the ears of Citizens throughout the country today as the use of the public roads has been monopolized by the very entity which has been empowered to stand guard over our freedoms, i.e., that of state government.
RIGHTS
The “most sacred of liberties” of which Justice Tolman spoke was personal liberty. The definition of personal liberty is:
“Personal liberty, or the Right to enjoyment of life and liberty, is one of the fundamental or natural Rights, which has been protected by its inclusion as a guarantee in the various constitutions, which is not derived from, or dependent on, the U.S. Constitution, which may not be submitted to a vote and may not depend on the outcome of an election. It is one of the most sacred and valuable Rights, as sacred as the Right to private property…and is regarded as inalienable.” 16 C.J.S., Constitutional Law, Sect.202, p.987.
This concept is further amplified by this definition of personal liberty:
“Personal liberty largely consists of the Right of locomotion to go where and when one pleases only so far restrained as the Rights of others may make it necessary for the welfare of all other citizens. The Right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, by horsedrawn carriage, wagon, or automobile, is not a mere privilege which may be permitted or prohibited at will, but the common Right which he has under his Right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Under this Constitutional guarantee one may, therefore, under normal conditions, travel at his inclination along the public highways or in public places, and while conducting himself in an orderly and decent manner, neither interfering with nor disturbing another’s Rights, he will be protected, not only in his person, but in his safe conduct.” [emphasis added] II Am.Jur. (1st) Constitutional Law, Sect.329, p.1135.
and further…
“Personal liberty consists of the power of locomotion, of changing situations, of removing one’s person to whatever place one’s inclination may direct, without imprisonment or restraint unless by due process of law.” 1 Blackstone’s Commentary 134; Hare, Constitution. 777; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Black’s Law Dictionary, 5th ed.
Justice Tolman was concerned about the State prohibiting the Citizen from the “most sacred of his liberties,” the Right of movement, the Right of moving one’s self from place to place without threat of imprisonment, the Right to use the public roads in the ordinary course of life.
When the State allows the formation of a corporation it may control its creation by establishing guidelines (statutes) for its operation (charters). Corporations who use the roads in the course of business do not use the roads in the ordinary course of life. There is a difference between a corporation and an individual. The United States Supreme Court has stated:
“…We are of the opinion that there is a clear distinction in this particular between an individual and a corporation, and that the latter has no right to refuse to submit its books and papers for examination on the suit of the State. The individual may stand upon his Constitutional Rights as a Citizen. He is entitled to carry on his private business in his own way. His power to contract is unlimited. He owes no duty to the State or to his neighbors to divulge his business, or to open his doors to investigation, so far as it may tend to incriminate him.
“He owes no such duty to the State, since he receives nothing therefrom, beyond the protection of his life, liberty, and property. His Rights are such as the law of the land long antecedent to the organization of the state, and can only be taken from him by due process of law, and in accordance with the Constitution. Among his Rights are the refusal to incriminate himself, and the immunity of himself and his property from arrest or seizure except under warrant of law. He owes nothing to the public so long as he does not trespass upon their rights.
“Upon the other hand, the corporation is a creature of the state. It is presumed to be incorporated for the benefit of the public. It receives certain special privileges and franchises, and holds them subject to the laws of the state and the limitations of its charter. Its rights to act as a corporation are only preserved to it so long as it obeys the laws of its creation. There is a reserved right in the legislature to investigate its contracts and find out whether it has exceeded its powers. It would be a strange anomaly to hold that the State, having chartered a corporation to make use of certain franchises, could not in exercise of its sovereignty inquire how those franchises had been employed, and whether they had been abused, and demand the production of corporate books and papers for that purpose.” [emphasis added] Hale vs. Hinkel, 201 US 43, 74-75
Corporations engaged in mercantile equity fall under the purview of the State’s admiralty jurisdiction, and the public at large must be protected from their activities, as they (the corporations) are engaged in business for profit.
“..Based upon the fundamental ground that the sovereign state has the plenary control of the streets and highways in the exercise of its police power (see police power, infra.), may absolutely prohibit the use of the streets as a place for the prosecution of a private business for gain.
They all recognize the fundamental distinction between the ordinary Right of the Citizen to use the streets in the usual way and the use of the streets as a place of business or a main instrumentality of business for private gain. The former is a common Right, the latter is an extraordinary use. As to the former the legislative power is confined to regulation, as to the latter it is plenary and extends even to absolute prohibition. Since the use of the streets by a common carrier in the prosecution of its business as such is not a right but a mere license of privilege.” Hadfield vs. Lundin, 98 Wash 657l, 168, p.516.
It will be necessary to review early cases and legal authority in order to reach a lawfully correct theory dealing with this Right or “privilege.” We will attempt to reach a sound conclusion as to what is a “Right to use the road” and what is a “privilege to use the road”. Once reaching this determination, we shall then apply those positions to modern case decision.
“Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them.” Miranda vs. Arizona, 384 US 436, 491.
and…
“The claim and exercise of a constitutional Right cannot be converted into a crime.” Miller vs. U.S., 230 F. 486, 489.
and…
“There can be no sanction or penalty imposed upon one because of this exercise of constitutional Rights.” Snerer vs. Cullen, 481 F. 946.
Streets and highways are established and maintained for the purpose of travel and transportation by the public. Such travel may be for business or pleasure.
“The use of the highways for the purpose of travel and ransportation is not a mere privilege, but a common and fundamental Right of which the public and the individual cannot be rightfully deprived.” [emphasis added] Chicago Motor Coach vs. Chicago, 169 NE 22; Ligare vs. Chicago, 28 NE 934; Boon vs. Clark, 214 SSW 607; 25 Am.Jur. (1st) Highways Sect.163.
and…
“The Right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, either by horse drawn carriage or by automobile, is not a mere privilege which a city can prohibit or permit at will, but a common Right which he has under the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” [emphasis added] Thompson vs. Smith, 154 SE 579.
So we can see that a Citizen has a Right to travel upon the public highways by automobile and the Citizen cannot be rightfully deprived of his Liberty. So where does the misconception that the use of the public road is always and only a privilege come from?
“…For while a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that Right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place for private gain. For the latter purpose no person has a vested right to use the highways of the state, but is a privilege or a license which the legislature may grant or withhold at its discretion.”State vs. Johnson, 243 P. 1073; Hadfield, supra; Cummins vs. Homes, 155 P. 171; Packard vs. Banton, 44 S.Ct. 256;
and other cases too numerous to mention.
Here the court held that a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways, but that he did not have the right to conduct business upon the highways. On this point of law all authorities are unanimous.
“Heretofore the court has held, and we think correctly, that while a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that Right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place of business for private gain.” Barney vs. Board of Railroad Commissioners, 17 P.2d 82; Willis vs. Buck, 263 P.l 982.
and…
“The right of the citizen to travel upon the highway and to transport his property thereon, in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously from that of one who makes the highway his place of business for private gain in the running of a stagecoach or omnibus.” State vs. City of Spokane, 186 P. 864.
What is this Right of the Citizen which differs so “radically and obviously” from one who uses the highway as a place of business? Who better to enlighten us than Justice Tolman of the Supreme Court of Washington State? In State vs. City of Spokane, supra, the Court also noted a very “radical and obvious” difference, but went on to explain just what the difference is:
“The former is the usual and ordinary right of the Citizen, a common right to all, while the latter is special, unusual, and extraordinary.”
and…
“This distinction, elementary and fundamental in character, is recognized by all the authorities.” State vs. City of Spokane, supra.
This position does not hang precariously upon only a few cases, but has been proclaimed by an impressive array of cases ranging from the state courts to the federal courts.
“the right of the Citizen to travel upon the highway and to transport his property thereon in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously from that of one who makes the highway his place of business and uses it for private gain in the running of a stagecoach or omnibus. The former is the usual and ordinary right of the Citizen, a right common to all, while the latter is special, unusual, and extraordinary.” Ex Parte Dickey, (Dickey vs. Davis), 85 SE 781.
and…
“The right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, in the ordinary course of life and business, is a common right which he has under the right to enjoy life and liberty, to acquire and possess property, and to pursue happiness and safety. It includes the right, in so doing, to use the ordinary and usual conveyances of the day, and under the existing modes of travel, includes the right to drive a horse drawn carriage or wagon thereon or to operate an automobile thereon, for the usual and ordinary purpose of life and business.” Teche Lines vs. Danforth, Miss., 12 S.2d 784; Thompson vs. Smith, supra.
There is no dissent among various authorities as to this position. (See Am.Jur. [1st] Const. Law, 329 and corresponding Am. Jur. [2nd].)
“Personal liberty or the right to enjoyment of life and liberty is one of the fundamental or natural rights, which has been protected by its inclusion as a guarantee in the various constitutions, which is not derived from nor dependent on the U.S. Constitution… It is one of the most sacred and valuable rights [remember the words of Justice Tolman, supra.] as sacred as the right to private property…and is regarded as inalienable.” 16 C.J.S. Const. Law, Sect.202, p.987.
As we can see, the distinction between a “Right” to use the public roads and a “privilege” to use the public roads is drawn upon the line of “using the road as a place of business” and the various state courts have held so. But what have the U.S. courts held on this point?
“First, it is well established law that the highways of the state are public property, and their primary and preferred use is for private purposes, and that their use for purposes of gain is special and extraordinary which, generally at least, the legislature may prohibit or condition as it sees fit.” Stephenson vs. Rinford, 287 US 251; Pachard vs Banton , 264 US 140, and cases cited; Frost and F. Trucking Co. vs. Railroad Commission, 271 US 592; Railroad commission vs. Inter-City Forwarding Co., 57 SW.2d 290; Parlett Cooperative vs. Tidewater Lines, 164 A. 313.
So what is a privilege to use the roads? By now it should be apparent even to the “learned” that an attempt to use the road as a place of business is a privilege. The distinction must be drawn between…
Travelling upon and transporting ones’ property upon the public roads, which is our Right;
and…
Using the public roads as a place of business or a main instrumentality of business, which is a privilege.
“[The roads]…are constructed and maintained at public expense, and no person therefore, can insist that he has, or may acquire, a vested right to their use in carrying on a commercial business.” Ex Parte Sterling, 53 SW.2d 294; Barney vs. Railroad Commissioners, 17 P.2d 82; Stephenson vs. Binford, supra.
“When the public highways are made the place of business the state has a right to regulate their use in the interest of safety and convenience of the public as well as the preservation of the highways.” Barney vs. Railroad Commissioners, supra.
“[The state’s] right to regulate such use is based upon the nature of the business and the use of the highways in connection therewith.” Ibid.
“We know of no inherent right in one to use the highways for commercial purposes. The highways are primarily for the use of the public, and in the interest of the public, the state may prohibit or regulate…the use of the highways for gain.” Robertson vs. Dept. of Public Works, supra.
There should be considerable authority on a subject as important a this deprivation of the liberty of the individual “using the roads in the ordinary course of life and business.” However, it should be noted that extensive research has not turned up one case or authority acknowledging the state’s power to convert the individual’s right to travel upon the public roads into a “privilege.”
Therefore, it is concluded that the Citizen does have a “Right” to travel and transport his property upon the public highways and roads and the exercise of this Right is not a “privilege.”
DEFINITIONS
In order to understand the correct application of the statute in question, we must first define the terms used in connection with this point of law. As will be shown, many terms used today do not, in their legal context, mean what we assume they mean, thus resulting in the misapplication of statutes in the instant case.
AUTOMOBILE AND MOTOR VEHICLE
There is a clear distinction between an automobile and a motor vehicle. An automobile has been defined as:
“The word ‘automobile’ connotes a pleasure vehicle designed for the transportation of persons on highways.” American Mutual Liability Ins. Co. vs. Chaput, 60 A.2d 118, 120; 95 NH 200.
While the distinction is made clear between the two as the courts have stated:
“A motor vehicle or automobile for hire is a motor vehicle, other than an automobile stage, used for the transportation of persons for which remuneration is received.” International Motor Transit Co. vs. Seattle, 251 P. 120.
The term ‘motor vehicle’ is different and broader than the word automobile.'”; City of Dayton vs. DeBrosse, 23 NE.2d 647, 650; 62 Ohio App. 232.
The distinction is made very clear in Title 18 USC 31:
“Motor vehicle” means every description or other contrivance propelled or drawn by mechanical power and used for commercial purposes on the highways in the transportation of passengers, or passengers and property.
“Used for commercial purposes” means the carriage of persons or property for any fare, fee, rate, charge or other considerations, or directly or indirectly in connection with any business, or other undertaking intended for profit.
Clearly, an automobile is private property in use for private purposes, while a motor vehicle is a machine which may be used upon the highways for trade, commerce, or hire.
TRAVEL
The term “travel” is a significant term and is defined as:
“The term ‘travel’ and ‘traveler’ are usually construed in their broad and general sense…so as to include all those who rightfully use the highways viatically (when being reimbursed for expenses) and who have occasion to pass over them for the purpose of business, convenience, or pleasure.” [emphasis added] 25 Am.Jur. (1st) Highways, Sect.427, p.717.
“Traveler: One who passes from place to place, whether for pleasure, instruction, business, or health.” Locket vs. State, 47 Ala. 45; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., p. 3309.
“Travel: To journey or to pass through or over; as a country district, road, etc. To go from one place to another, whether on foot, or horseback, or in any conveyance as a train, an automobile, carriage, ship, or aircraft; Make a journey.” Century Dictionary, p.2034.
Therefore, the term “travel” or “traveler” refers to one who uses a conveyance to go from one place to another, and included all those who use the highways as a matter of Right.
otice that in all these definitions the phrase “for hire” never occurs. This term “travel” or “traveler” implies, by definition, one who uses the road as a means to move from one place to another.
Therefore, one who uses the road in the ordinary course of life and business for the purpose of travel and transportation is a traveler.
DRIVER
The term “driver” in contradistinction to “traveler” is defined as:
“Driver: One employed in conducting a coach, carriage, wagon, or other vehicle…” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., p. 940.
Notice that this definition includes one who is “employed” in conducting a vehicle. It should be self-evident that this person could not be “travelling” on a journey, but is using the road as a place of business.
OPERATOR
Today we assume that a “traveler” is a “driver,” and a “driver” is an “operator.” However, this is not the case.
“It will be observed from the language of the ordinance that a distinction is to be drawn between the terms ‘operator’ and ‘driver’; the ‘operator’ of the service car being the person who is licensed to have the car on the streets in the business of carrying passengers for hire; while the ‘driver’ is the one who actually drives the car. However, in the actual prosecution of business, it was possible for the same person to be both ‘operator’ and ‘driver.'” Newbill vs. Union Indemnity Co., 60 SE.2d 658.
To further clarify the definition of an “operator” the court observed that this was a vehicle “for hire” and that it was in the business of carrying passengers.
This definition would seem to describe a person who is using the road as a place of business, or in other words, a person engaged in the “privilege” of using the road for gain.
This definition, then, is a further clarification of the distinction mentioned earlier, and therefore:
Travelling upon and transporting one’s property upon the public roads as a matter of Right meets the definition of a traveler.
Using the road as a place of business as a matter of privilege meets the definition of a driver or an operator or both.
TRAFFIC
Having defined the terms “automobile,” “motor vehicle,” “traveler,” “driver,” and “operator,” the next term to define is “traffic”:
“…Traffic thereon is to some extent destructive, therefore, the prevention of unnecessary duplication of auto transportation service will lengthen the life of the highways or reduce the cost of maintenance, the revenue derived by the state…will also tend toward the public welfare by producing at the expense of those operating for private gain, some small part of the cost of repairing the wear…” Northern Pacific R.R. Co. vs. Schoenfeldt, 213 P. 26.
Note: In the above, Justice Tolman expounded upon the key of raising revenue by taxing the “privilege” to use the public roads “at the expense of those operating for gain.”
In this case, the word “traffic” is used in conjunction with the unnecessary Auto Transportation Service, or in other words, “vehicles for hire.” The word “traffic” is another word which is to be strictly construed to the conducting of business.
“Traffic: Commerce, trade, sale or exchange of merchandise, bills, money, or the like. The passing of goods and commodities from one person to another for an equivalent in goods or money…”; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., p. 3307.
Here again, notice that this definition refers to one “conducting business.” No mention is made of one who is travelling in his automobile. This definition is of one who is engaged in the passing of a commodity or goods in exchange for money, i.e.., vehicles for hire.
Furthermore, the word “traffic” and “travel” must have different meanings which the courts recognize. The difference is recognized in Ex Parte Dickey, supra:
“..in addition to this, cabs, hackney coaches, omnibuses, taxicabs, and hacks, when unnecessarily numerous, interfere with the ordinary traffic and travel and obstruct them.”
The court, by using both terms, signified its recognition of a distinction between the two. But, what was the distinction? We have already defined both terms, but to clear up any doubt:
“The word ‘traffic’ is manifestly used here in secondary sense, and has reference to the business of transportation rather than to its primary meaning of interchange of commodities.” Allen vs. City of Bellingham, 163 P. 18.
Here the Supreme Court of the State of Washington has defined the word “traffic” (in either its primary or secondary sense) in reference to business, and not to mere travel! So it is clear that the term “traffic” is business related and therefore, it is a “privilege.” The net result being that “traffic” is brought under the (police) power of the legislature. The term has no application to one who is not using the roads as a place of business.
LICENSE
It seems only proper to define the word “license,” as the definition of this word will be extremely important in understanding the statutes as they are properly applied:
“The permission, by competent authority to do an act which without permission, would be illegal, a trespass, or a tort.” People vs. Henderson, 218 NW.2d 2, 4.
“Leave to do a thing which licensor could prevent.” Western Electric Co. vs. Pacent Reproducer Corp., 42 F.2d 116, 118.
In order for these two definitions to apply in this case, the state would have to take up the position that the exercise of a Constitutional Right to use the public roads in the ordinary course of life and business is illegal, a trespass, or a tort, which the state could then regulate or prevent.
This position, however, would raise magnitudinous Constitutional questions as this position would be diametrically opposed to fundamental Constitutional Law. (See “Conversion of a Right to a Crime,” infra.)
In the instant case, the proper definition of a “license” is:
“a permit, granted by an appropriate governmental body, generally for consideration, to a person, firm, or corporation, to pursue some occupation or to carry on some business which is subject to regulation under the police power.” [emphasis added] Rosenblatt vs. California State Board of Pharmacy, 158 P.2d 199, 203.
This definition would fall more in line with the “privilege” of carrying on business on the streets.
Most people tend to think that “licensing” is imposed by the state for the purpose of raising revenue, yet there may well be more subtle reasons contemplated; for when one seeks permission from someone to do something he invokes the jurisdiction of the “licensor” which, in this case, is the state. In essence, the licensee may well be seeking to be regulated by the “licensor.”
“A license fee is a charge made primarily for regulation, with the fee to cover costs and expenses of supervision or regulation.” State vs. Jackson, 60 Wisc.2d 700; 211 NW.2d 480, 487.
The fee is the price; the regulation or control of the licensee is the real aim of the legislation.
Are these licenses really used to fund legitimate government, or are they nothing more than a subtle introduction of police power into every facet of our lives? Have our “enforcement agencies” been diverted from crime prevention, perhaps through no fault of their own, instead now busying themselves as they “check” our papers to see that all are properly endorsed by the state?
How much longer will it be before we are forced to get a license for our lawn mowers, or before our wives will need a license for her “blender” or “mixer?” They all have motors on them and the state can always use the revenue.
POLICE POWER
The confusion of the police power with the power of taxation usually arises in cases where the police power has affixed a penalty to a certain act, or where it requires licenses to be obtained and a certain sum be paid for certain occupations. The power used in the instant case cannot, however, be the power of taxation since an attempt to levy a tax upon a Right would be open to Constitutional objection. (See “taxing power,” infra.)
Each law relating to the use of police power must ask three questions:
“1. Is there threatened danger? 2. Does a regulation involve a Constitutional Right? 3. Is this regulation reasonable?” People vs. Smith, 108 Am.St.Rep. 715; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., under “Police Power.”
When applying these three questions to the statute in question, some very important issues emerge.
First, “is there a threatened danger” in the individual using his automobile on the public highways, in the ordinary course of life and business?
The answer is No! There is nothing inherently dangerous in the use of an automobile when it is carefully managed. Their guidance, speed, and noise are subject to a quick and easy control, under a competent and considerate manager, it is as harmless on the road as a horse and buggy.
It is the manner of managing the automobile, and that alone, which threatens the safety of the public. The ability to stop quickly and to respond quickly to guidance would seem to make the automobile one of the least dangerous conveyances. (See Yale Law Journal, December, 1905.)
“The automobile is not inherently dangerous.” Cohens vs. Meadow, 89 SE 876; Blair vs. Broadmore, 93 SE 532.
To deprive all persons of the Right to use the road in the ordinary course of life and business, because one might, in the future, become dangerous, would be a deprivation not only of the Right to travel, but also the Right to due process. (See “Due Process,” infra.)
Next, does the regulation involve a Constitutional Right?
This question has already been addressed and answered in this brief, and need not be reinforced other than to remind this Court that this Citizen does have the Right to travel upon the public highway by automobile in the ordinary course of life and business. It can therefore be concluded that this regulation does involve a Constitutional Right.
The third question is the most important in this case. “Is this regulation reasonable?”
The answer is No! It will be shown later in “Regulation,” infra., that this licensing statute is oppressive and could be effectively administered by less oppressive means.
Although the Fourteenth Amendment does not interfere with the proper exercise of the police power, in accordance with the general principle that the power must be exercised so as not to invade unreasonably the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution, it is established beyond question that every state power, including the police power, is limited by the Fourteenth Amendment (and others) and by the inhibitions there imposed.
Moreover, the ultimate test of the propriety of police power regulations must be found in the Fourteenth Amendment, since it operates to limit the field of the police power to the extent of preventing the enforcement of statutes in denial of Rights that the Amendment protects. (See Parks vs. State, 64 NE 682.)
“With regard particularly to the U.S. Constitution, it is elementary that a Right secured or protected by that document cannot be overthrown or impaired by any state police authority.” Connolly vs. Union Sewer Pipe Co., 184 US 540; Lafarier vs. Grand Trunk R.R. Co., 24 A. 848; O’Neil vs. Providence Amusement Co., 108 A. 887.
“The police power of the state must be exercised in subordination to the provisions of the U.S. Constitution.” [emphasis added] Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Co. vs. State Highway Commission, 294 US 613; Bacahanan vs. Wanley, 245 US 60.
“It is well settled that the Constitutional Rights protected from invasion by the police power, include Rights safeguarded both by express and implied prohibitions in the Constitutions.” Tiche vs. Osborne, 131 A. 60.
“As a rule, fundamental limitations of regulations under the police power are found in the spirit of the Constitutions, not in the letter, although they are just as efficient as if expressed in the clearest language.” Mehlos vs. Milwaukee, 146 NW 882.
As it applies in the instant case, the language of the Fifth Amendment is clear:
No person shall be…deprived of Life, Liberty, or Property without due process of law.
As has been shown, the courts at all levels have firmly established an absolute Right to travel.
In the instant case, the state, by applying commercial statutes to all entities, natural and artificial persons alike, has deprived this free and natural person of the Right of Liberty, without cause and without due process of law.
DUE PROCESS
“The essential elements of due process of law are…Notice and The Opportunity to defend.” Simon vs. Craft, 182 US 427.
Yet, not one individual has been given notice of the loss of his/her Right, let alone before signing the license (contract). Nor was the Citizen given any opportunity to defend against the loss of his/her right to travel, by automobile, on the highways, in the ordinary course of life and business. This amounts to an arbitrary deprivation of Liberty.
“There should be no arbitrary deprivation of Life or Liberty…” Barbour vs. Connolly, 113 US 27, 31; Yick Wo vs. Hopkins, 118 US 356.
and…
“The right to travel is part of the Liberty of which a citizen cannot deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment. This Right was emerging as early as the Magna Carta.” Kent vs. Dulles, 357 US 116 (1958).
The focal point of this question of police power and due process must balance upon the point of making the public highways a safe place for the public to travel. If a man travels in a manner that creates actual damage, an action would lie (civilly) for recovery of damages. The state could then also proceed against the individual to deprive him of his Right to use the public highways, for cause. This process would fulfill the due process requirements of the Fifth Amendment while at the same time insuring that Rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and the state constitutions would be protected.
But unless or until harm or damage (a crime) is committed, there is no cause for interference in the private affairs or actions of a Citizen.
One of the most famous and perhaps the most quoted definitions of due process of law, is that of Daniel Webster in his Dartmouth College Case (4 Wheat 518), in which he declared that by due process is meant “a law which hears before it condemns, which proceeds upon inquiry, and renders judgment only after trial.” (See also State vs. Strasburg, 110 P. 1020; Dennis vs. Moses, 52 P. 333.)
Somewhat similar is the statement that is a rule as old as the law that “no one shall be personally bound (restricted) until he has had his day in court,” by which is meant, until he has been duly cited to appear and has been afforded an opportunity to be heard. Judgment without such citation and opportunity lacks all the attributes of a judicial determination; it is judicial usurpation and it is oppressive and can never be upheld where it is fairly administered. (12 Am.Jur. [1st] Const. Law, Sect.573, p.269.)
Note: This sounds like the process used to deprive one of the “privilege” of operating a motor vehicle “for hire.” It should be kept in mind, however, that we are discussing the arbitrary deprivation of the Right to use the road that all citizens have “in common.”
The futility of the state’s position can be most easily observed in the 1959 Washington Attorney General’s opinion on a similar issue:
“The distinction between the Right of the Citizen to use the public highways for private, rather than commercial purposes is recognized…”
and…
“Under its power to regulate private uses of our highways, our legislature has required that motor vehicle operators be licensed (I.C. 49-307). Undoubtedly, the primary purpose of this requirement is to insure, as far as possible, that all motor vehicle operators will be competent and qualified, thereby reducing the potential hazard or risk of harm, to which other users of the highways might otherwise be subject. But once having complied with this regulatory provision, by obtaining the required license, a motorist enjoys the privilege of travelling freely upon the highways…”; Washington A.G.O. 59-60 No. 88, p. 11.
This alarming opinion appears to be saying that every person using an automobile as a matter of Right, must give up the Right and convert the Right into a privilege. This is accomplished under the guise of regulation. This statement is indicative of the insensitivity, even the ignorance, of the government to the limits placed upon governments by and through the several constitutions.
This legal theory may have been able to stand in 1959; however, as of 1966, in the United States Supreme Court decision in Miranda, even this weak defense of the state’s actions must fall.
“Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them.” Miranda vs. Arizona, 384 US 436, 491.
Thus the legislature does not have the power to abrogate the Citizen’s Right to travel upon the public roads, by passing legislation forcing the citizen to waive his Right and convert that Right into a privilege. Furthermore, we have previously established that this “privilege” has been defined as applying only to those who are “conducting business in the streets” or “operating for-hire vehicles.”
The legislature has attempted, by legislative fiat, to deprive the Citizen of his Right to use the roads in the ordinary course of life and business, without affording the Citizen the safeguard of “due process of law.” This has been accomplished under supposed powers of regulation.
REGULATION
“In addition to the requirement that regulations governing the use of the highways must not be violative of constitutional guarantees, the prime essentials of such regulation are reasonableness, impartiality, and definiteness or certainty.” 25 Am.Jur. (1st) Highways, Sect.260.
and…
“Moreover, a distinction must be observed between the regulation of an activity which may be engaged in as a matter of right and one carried on by government sufferance of permission.” Davis vs. Massachusetts, 167 US 43; Pachard vs. Banton, supra.
One can say for certain that these regulations are impartial since they are being applied to all, even though they are clearly beyond the limits of the legislative powers. However, we must consider whether such regulations are reasonable and non-violative of constitutional guarantees.
First, let us consider the reasonableness of this statute requiring all persons to be licensed (presuming that we are applying this statute to all persons using the public roads).
In determining the reasonableness of the statute we need only ask two questions:
1. Does the statute accomplish its stated goal?
The answer is No!
The attempted explanation for this regulation “to insure the safety of the public by insuring, as much as possible, that all are competent and qualified.”
However, one can keep his license without retesting, from the time he/she is first licensed until the day he/she dies, without regard to the competency of the person, by merely renewing said license before it expires. It is therefore possible to completely skirt the goal of this attempted regulation, thus proving that this regulation does not accomplish its goal.
Furthermore, by testing and licensing, the state gives the appearance of underwriting the competence of the licensees, and could therefore be held liable for failures, accidents, etc. caused by licensees.
2. Is the statute reasonable?
The answer is No!
This statute cannot be determined to be reasonable since it requires to the Citizen to give up his or her natural Right to travel unrestricted in order to accept the privilege. The purported goal of this statute could be met by much less oppressive regulations, i.e., competency tests and certificates of competency before using an automobile upon the public roads. (This is exactly the situation in the aviation sector.)
But isn’t this what we have now?
The answer is No! The real purpose of this license is much more insidious. When one signs the license, he/she gives up his/her Constitutional Right to travel in order to accept and exercise a privilege. After signing the license, a quasi-contract, the Citizen has to give the state his/her consent to be prosecuted for constructive crimes and quasi-criminal actions where there is no harm done and no damaged property.
These prosecutions take place without affording the Citizen of their Constitutional Rights and guarantees such a the Right to a trial by jury of twelve persons and the Right to counsel, as well as the normal safeguards such as proof of intent and a corpus dilecti and a grand jury indictment. These unconstitutional prosecutions take place because the Citizen is exercising a privilege and has given his/her “implied consent” to legislative enactments designed to control interstate commerce, a regulatable enterprise under the police power of the state.
We must now conclude that the Citizen is forced to give up Constitutional guarantees of “Right” in order to exercise his state “privilege” to travel upon the public highways in the ordinary course of life and business.
SURRENDER OF RIGHTS
A Citizen cannot be forced to give up his/her Rights in the name of regulation.
“…the only limitations found restricting the right of the state to condition the use of the public highways as a means of vehicular transportation for compensation are (1) that the state must not exact of those it permits to use the highways for hauling for gain that they surrender any of their inherent U.S. Constitutional Rights as a condition precedent to obtaining permission for such use…”; [emphasis added] Riley vs. Laeson, 142 So. 619; Stephenson vs. Binford, supra.
If one cannot be placed in a position of being forced to surrender Rights in order to exercise a privilege, how much more must this maxim of law, then, apply when one is simply exercising (putting into use) a Right?
“To be that statute which would deprive a Citizen of the rights of person or property, without a regular trial, according to the course and usage of the common law, would not be the law of the land.” Hoke vs. Henderson, 15 NC 15.
and…
“We find it intolerable that one Constitutional Right should have to be surrendered in order to assert another.” Simons vs. United States, 390 US 389.
Since the state requires that one give up Rights in order to exercise the privilege of driving, the regulation cannot stand under the police power, due process, or regulation, but must be exposed as a statute which is oppressive and one which has been misapplied to deprive the Citizen of Rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the state constitutions.
TAXING POWER
“Any claim that this statute is a taxing statute would be immediately open to severe Constitutional objections. If it could be said that the state had the power to tax a Right, this would enable the state to destroy Rights guaranteed by the constitution through the use of oppressive taxation. The question herein, is one of the state taxing the Right to travel by the ordinary modes of the day, and whether this is a legislative object of the state taxation. The views advanced herein are neither novel nor unsupported by authority. The question of taxing power of the states has been repeatedly considered by the Supreme Court. The Right of the state to impede or embarrass the Constitutional operation of the U.S. Government or the Rights which the Citizen holds under it, has been uniformly denied.” McCulloch vs. Maryland, 4 Wheat 316.
The power to tax is the power to destroy, and if the state is given the power to destroy Rights through taxation, the framers of the Constitution wrote that document in vain.
“…It may be said that a tax of one dollar for passing through the state cannot sensibly affect any function of government or deprive a Citizen of any valuable Right. But if a state can tax…a passenger of one dollar, it can tax him a thousand dollars.” Crandall vs. Nevada, 6 Wall 35, 46.
and…
“If the Right of passing through a state by a Citizen of the United States is one guaranteed by the Constitution, it must be sacred from state taxation.” Ibid., p.47.
Therefore, the Right of travel must be kept sacred from all forms of state taxation and if this argument is used by the state as a defense of the enforcement of this statute, then this argument also must fail.
CONVERSION OF A RIGHT TO A CRIME
As previously demonstrated, the Citizen has the Right to travel and to transport his property upon the public highways in the ordinary course of life and business. However, if one exercises this Right to travel (without first giving up the Right and converting that Right into a privilege) the Citizen is by statute, guilty of a crime. This amounts to converting the exercise of a Constitutional Right into a crime.
Recall the Miller vs. U.S. and Snerer vs. Cullen quotes from p.5, and,
“The state cannot diminish Rights of the people.” Hurtado vs. California, 110 US 516.
and…
“Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them.” Miranda, supra.
Indeed, the very purpose for creating the state under the limitations of the Constitution was to protect the Rights of the people from intrusion, particularly by the forces of government.
So we can see that any attempt by the legislature to make the act of using the public highways as a matter of Right into a crime, is void upon its face.
Any person who claims his Right to travel upon the highways, and so exercises that Right, cannot be tried for a crime of doing so. And yet, this Freeman stands before this court today to answer charges for the “crime” of exercising his Right to Liberty.
As we have already shown, the term “drive” can only apply to those who are employed in the business of transportation for hire. It has been shown that freedom includes the Citnzen’s Right to use the public highways in the ordinary course of life and business without license or regulation by the police powers of the state.
CONCLUSION
It is the duty of the court to recognize the substance of things and not the mere form.
“The courts are not bound by mere form, nor are they to be misled by mere pretenses. They are at liberty indeed they are under a solemn duty to look at the substance of things, whenever they enter upon the inquiry whether the legislature has transcended the limits of its authority. If, therefore, a statute purported to have been enacted to protect…the public safety, has no real or substantial relation to those objects or is a palpable invasion of Rights secured by the fundamental law, it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and thereby give effect to the Constitution.” Mulger vs. Kansas, 123 US 623, 661.
and…
“It is the duty of the courts to be watchful for the Constitutional rights of the citizen and against any stealthy encroachments thereon.” Boyd vs. United States, 116 US 616.
The courts are “duty bound” to recognize and stop the “stealthy encroachments” which have been made upon the Citizen’s Right to travel and to use the roads to transport his property in the “ordinary course of life and business.” (Hadfield, supra.)
Further, the court must recognize that the Right to travel is part of the Liberty of which a Citizen cannot be deprived without specific cause and without the “due process of law” guaranteed in the Fifth Amendment. (Kent, supra.)
The history of this “invasion” of the Citizen’s Right to use the public highways shows clearly that the legislature simply found a heretofore untapped source of revenue, got greedy, and attempted to enforce a statute in an unconstitutional manner upon those Free and Natural individuals who have a Right to travel upon the highways.
This was not attempted in an outright action, but in a slow, meticulous, calculated encroachment upon the Citizen’s Right to travel.
This position must be accepted unless the prosecutor can show his authority for the position that the “use of the road in the ordinary course of life and business” is a privilege.
To rule in any other manner, without clear authority for an adverse ruling, will infringe upon fundamental and basic concepts of Constitutional law. This position, that a Right cannot be regulated under any guise, must be accepted without concern for the monetary loss of the state.
“Disobedience or evasion of a Constitutional Mandate cannot be tolerated, even though such disobedience may, at least temporarily, promote in some respects the best interests of the public.” Slote vs. Examination, 112 ALR 660.
and…
“Economic necessity cannot justify a disregard of Constitutional guarantee.” Riley vs. Carter, 79 ALR 1018; 16 Am.Jur. (2nd), Const. Law, Sect.81.
and…
“Constitutional Rights cannot be denied simply because of hostility to their assertions and exercise; vindication of conceded Constitutional Rights cannot be made dependent upon any theory that it is less expensive to deny them than to afford them.” Watson vs. Memphis, 375 US 526.
Therefore, the Court’s decision in the instant case must be made without the issue of cost to the state being taken into consideration, as that issue is irrelevant. The state cannot lose money that it never had a right to demand from the “Sovereign People.”
Finally, we come to the issue of “public policy.” It could be argued that the “licensing scheme” of all persons is a matter of “public policy.” However, if this argument is used, it too must fail, as:
“No public policy of a state can be allowed to override the positive guarantees of the U.S. Constitution.” 16 Am.Jur. (2nd), Const. Law, Sect.70.
So even “public policy” cannot abrogate this Citizen’s Right to travel and to use the public highways in the ordinary course of life and business.
Therefore, it must be concluded that:
“We have repeatedly held that the legislature may regulate the use of the highways for carrying on business for private gain and that such regulation is a valid exercise of the police power.” Northern Pacific R.R. Co., supra.
and…
“The act in question is a valid regulation, and as such is binding upon all who use the highway for the purpose of private gain.” Ibid.
Any other construction of this statute would render it unconstitutional as applied to this Citizen or any Citizen. The Accused therefore moves this court to dismiss the charge against him, with prejudice.
April 20, 2006.
“it could be said that the state had the power to tax a Right, this would enable the state to destroy Rights guaranteed by the constitution through the use of oppressive taxation.”
This makes me think of the ObamaCare mandate, basically taxing the right to life, liberty, & happiness…among other things…
Amen

REMINDER – and revised repost of previous comments and additional thoughts on the comment posted at Marica’s this morning:
PDJT is very well-versed and experienced in intel and investigatory tactics….over 40 years worth of experience and knowledge gained.
This is vital for a businessman and especially a club, casino and hotel owner.
Intelligence, analysis, knowing a lot about people, executives in charge of competition, of potential investments is vital to making good business buy/sell decisions.
When he spoke with the head of some US intel agency, maybe CIA, the person (forgot which/who) he said Trump had the level of knowledge/understanding of intelligence operations of a decades long intelligence officer or chief of station.
Remember, Trump was very close to Keith Schiller, his long-time (goood looking) private personal security chief. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Schiller
Think about it – Trump could have learned a lot – consulted with , been schooled, trained by a lot on a lot of people – even former military and agency intel personnel.
As a hotel owner, he would need to know about activities going on under the roofs and on his properties – by both guests and employees.
It was rumored that Trump had assisted law enforcement agencies in their investigations.
Remember, Trump banned Epstein from his properties. Think of how many properties – Trump could hide a lot of people quietly, meet with a lot of people privately, covertly, and he could have investigated a lot of people covertly for decades.
The possibilities are infinite.
I bet a lot of people are squirming, sweating, scared. Especially after Trump was inaugurated and had access to NASA and 17 (heh) intelligence agencies records….
And about those body doubles…. maybe there’s one for Trump to use when he wants to be two places at one time.
In line with your speculation of DJT using his multiple properties to hide people, I find that to be one possibility to bolster my conviction/hope that Phil Haney is not dead but merely removed from the battlefield. To a much lesser extent I would not be offended if DJT was hiding Epstein due to the priceless info only he could have.
We live in a World of Mirrors, for sure.
Had not read Phil Haney for quite awhile.
He’s a personal friend. I can’t describe how stunned/enraged I was to hear that slimy cop describe it as a suicide.
No one who had read anything by Haney would believe it was ANYTHING but a Deep State Hit job.

For those who favor deep dives into the historical roots of the mess created in the 20th century I would suggest a book titled “The Wall Street Trilogy” by Anthony Sutton. It is a compilation volume revealing the business and political connections between Wall Street (just think large Corporate America) and the Bolshevik Revolution, FDR, and the Rise of Hitler. It is both extremely dense and well researched. If this kind of subject interests you it will probably be well worth the time investment. For those who like to own their books it is available on Amazon for around $23. I am sure other booksellers would also have copies available.
In a similar vein I’d recommend this:

Tucker on the Taiwan trip.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/08/02/tucker-carlson-delivers-monologue-on-the-odd-nancy-pelosi-trip-to-tiawan/
Folks at CTH are guessing it’s the midterms, a way to appease China some more (bet big $$$ was paid to politicians, with 10% for the big guy) by handing over Taiwan.
Someone even congectured that Pelosi would be kidnapped and kept by
Taiwan and Chynah (a false flag dark op) would rescue her for us from the bad guys – and give us a reason to give Taiwan back to China.
Wondering how much the British and US PTB got paid for Hong Kong?
In his monologue, Tucker blames the spread of the ‘novel coronavirus’ – possibly a product of Fauci-Chinese gain of function research – on the Chinese military.
At first we were told it was caused by eating bats, then we were told it was possibly caused by travelers, cruise ship passengers from China, then we were told it was a lab-leak out of the Wuhan labs, then we learned about the gain of function research funded by Fauci (Is he a descendant of Italian fascists? Sure seems like it.)
I’m S&T of being gaslighted and lied to by our leaders and the media, of being manipulated and traumatized by those lies and the liars behind them!
Truth is as rare as diamonds these days.
Oh, truth is far more rare than diamonds. The rarity of diamonds is in itself a colossal lie.
The advent of television was the end of thought, in my opinion. The “news” was taken over by the C_A, and people were gradually trained to just suck up whatever was given them on the tube, without discernment. This is completely demonstrated by the willingness of so many to just buy whatever “cause” of the China virus is in the media this week.
Schools and textbook companies have also become propaganda vehicles.
True story!
Mass media. It has been a paradigm changer for the elite.
Mass medicine is the one we’re currently dealing with.
Yessir! And mass science.
Mass science allowed the wide-scale DECEPTION OF SCIENTISTS THEMSELVES.
Yes.

There is no one way that the virus was unleashed on the world. There were many.
I do not doubt the Chi-coms claim that our people were involved. Probably as funders, collaborators and developers of the virus.
They would use their own people to infect the world. They send them out everywhere to work and as foreign exchange students. Would not be that hard to do.
That is common sense – sounds like the way it would be. Seeded into nursing home, onto cruise ships, airplanes, churches.
Two funerals in Albany GA, with busloads of attendees from Atlanta, were the early disseminators into our area. It was handled oh so PC, because it was a big African American community thing. Spread to the AA areas first.
Remember how the Dems poo-pooed Trump’s precautions, called him rayciss – and told everyone to celebrate ‘Chinese New Year’ and Mardi Gras?
The spread was an intentional op and so was the death of many in nursing homes.

Video of the ribbery in article.
“Armed robber flees in panic when Norco liquor store owner blasts shotgun: ‘He shot my arm off!’
NORCO, Calif. (KABC) — Dramatic surveillance video captured the moment a Norco liquor store owner used his shotgun to shoot a would-be robber who was armed with a rifle.
Footage shows the armed suspect burst into the business and the owner immediately shoot a single blast from his firearm.
Cameras outside captured the suspect frantically screaming, “He shot my arm off! He shot my arm off!”
Multiple suspects then quickly take off in a dark-colored SUV and almost leave a person behind, the footage shows.
Four suspects were later found at a hospital, including one who was suffering from a gunshot wound consistent with a shotgun blast, authorities say. The three other suspects were found inside the suspect vehicle, which authorities say was reported stolen.
The suspects were identified as 22-year-old Inglewood resident Justin Johnson, 27-year-old Los Angeles resident Jamar Williams and 24-year-old Las Vegas resident Davon Broadus.
The wounded suspect’s name has not been released. The 23-year-old remains hospitalized in critical, but stable condition.
Several stolen firearms were allegedly found in the BMW SUV the suspects used.”
White oppression i see. If the store owner had died they wouldve been charged with it, even a heart attack.

Another comment re: the ATF guy arrested by the Ohio cops:
Jason Calley – https://www.theburningplatform.com/2022/08/01/oddly-satisfying/#comment-2686414
It has been a couple of years since this happened, but my memory is this. The ATF guy had shown up at a woman’s apartment demanding entry but refusing to show ID or warrant. He claimed to be law enforcement and wanted her to give him her husband’s shotgun. (Husband not home at the time.) He refused to leave and (I think) tried to push his way into her apartment, but she closed the door and called 911.
When the police arrive they already have good reason to think the guy might well be impersonating an officer since he was apparently NOT following any kind of normal protocol. Add to that the guy refuses to comply with orders, makes moves toward his waist, and responds to orders with a flat out “that’s not going to happen”.
Conclusion? The ATF guy is a complete jerk who does everything within his power to escalate the confrontation, all as a way of showing how big a dick he has. Just one more bad apple in law enforcement and one more reason why fewer and fewer people will trust ANY law officer. And they are right not to.
Waving his dick around.

Fellow’s pretty lucky he didn’t get ventilated for a stunt like that. I imagine in some states (Texas comes to mind) he would’ve been swiss cheese, pronto…

Everyone’s already heard about the F150/gas powered vs. the F150 Lightning test – electric truck was about to die pulling a trailer 50+ miles – they had to lower their speed and find a charging station. And then there was Tickerguy’s article talking about everything drawing battery power. It was interesting, he pointed out that even heating a Tesla cabin in cold weather requires battery power, as does the AC of course. Well, I have seen this all play out first hand on a 4-lane divided highway – main artery to the southern NJ shore. Last week, I’m on this highway and up ahead everyone is slowing down to avoid slamming into a very small camper trailer (like 14′ – not a pop-up) going about 50, when the speed limit is 65 – so everyone’s usually doing 70+.
So I go around, and what’s pulling the trailer? A Tesla.
Battery is propelling the car, running the air, and towing the trailer. Guy heading down the shore and likely has enough charge for 100 miles. Hopefully factoring in slow traffic. Luckily it was not a Friday.
A couple days ago I passed ANOTHER completely burnt out small car. Probably another Battery fire… Actually it is very likely since it was only a few hundred yards beyond an on ramp. That ramp is across the street from a battery charging station and the car was where the road started to go up hill.
Oh my – that’s bad.
That is two I have seen this summer. I have seen cars burnt occasionally but usually it is only partially burnt not crispy critter, nothing but metal burnt.
Oh, and this one? The fire dept is 3 minutes away from that ramp!
Worth the time investment IMO.

Don’t ever just drop your kids at a library. There are predators waiting, lurking there – especially the restrooms.
First let me say I re-read yesterdays post and then looked up the quotes online, and they all agree with whats in the header.
However unless I can see the quote in his own handwriting I think it’s fair enough to question it.
That first sentence just doesn’t read right to me. I think it was meant to be this…
“We do not believe any group of men *are* adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism.”
I’ll get my coat, fire at will.
Cited here – We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error, undetected, will flourish and subvert.
J. Robert Oppenheimer – https://www.azquotes.com/quote/783523
“Encouragement of Science”. J. Robert Oppenheimer’s address at Science Talent Institute (March 6, 1950), as quoted in “Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists”, Volume 7, No. 1 (pp. 6-8), January 1951.
Remove the descriptors and you will be left with, ” We do not believe any group of men to operate without scrutiny or without criticism.” Full sentence right there.
Very good distillation!
I can believe “are” is missing, because that’s a slightly older style of speech. I think I’ve seen it used in either the DOI or Constitution, in fact.
Or it could be a mistake, but then again any part of it could be a mistake.
Swiss Cow and Start Page both returned multiple sites using the exact quote with out the “are”, so apparently you are not mistaken.
I found that “ “Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists”, Volume 7, No. 1 (pp. 6-8), January 1951.” in some archive but it only let me see P1&2.
Like as not though it would be a report written by a third party, and it only needs one typo and it’s set in stone.
That is old style speech…. almost poetic. I’ve heard that kind of statement in several books and poems through the years.
I use it myself, frequently, and particularly with long and complex sentences, already chock full of verbs. No need for that extra “to be” conjugation. (Note suppressed “There is” here – dropping subjects is fun and highly useful, too!) I think scientists use this a lot in publications.
I find it quite useful, personally! 😉
Good point.
And that doesn’t even get to whether group is singular or plural, which can sound more correct both ways, depending on context.
One more advantage of dropping the needless verb! 😉
Languages do change, and have for likely at least 50,000 years.
And now that I read it on the banner, “Adequate enough” is a redundancy. You either are or are not adequate. It’s like saying “sufficient enough”
On the other hand, it does create a parallel construction.
That makes me think he’s using adequate in an older and more limited sense, meaning (about individuals or groups) having the needed skill set. Even then, it’s still almost redundant.

Dr. Birx – Who Admitted COVID ‘Subterfuge’ In Trump’s White House – Says Her ‘Go To’ People Were Jared Kushner and Mike Pence.IT’S ALL ADDS UP NOW.

Its why kushner isnt inbolved w anything political now. But he got his dad out of jail. After everything Trump has done for him, naybe his dtr marrying the son of a con man wasnt the best move.
I think Jared was 100% loyal to Trump – but he was always approachable by the other side. I do interesting math on that. 😎
I mean, POTUS sent him as soecial envoy so many times, including w nafta to mexico. But dunno something is there. Best he claims too busy and dealing w his cancer to stay away from politics.
Doubt his thyroid cancer is still an issue. Very treatable. Definitely survivable. Know several in this category.
Jared’s NOT a politician. Businessman. Strategy big picture guy. Comfortable working behind the scenes.
That part i believe.
Nah. Not buying into the bash Jared stuff.
Jared did incredible things for America, Trump, Middle East.
No idea if Jared did anything political before Trump rode the escalator. I suspect NOT.
Jared stepped up to help his Father-In-Law. Certainly one reason was, Happy Wife. Happy Life. Quite possibly he knew Trump would be a better President than the lying Uniparty.
I hope thats really the case and this is just trying to split support as usual.
Very interesting.
On the bright side, Scott Atlas may see Deborah Birx hang – but not vice versa.
NOT buying it, the insinuation that Jared back stabbed Trump. Any details? Nah. Didn’t think so.

U.S. State Dept. Issues ‘Worldwide Caution’ To American CitizensBy B911 –
August 2, 2022
The U.S. State Department on Tuesday issued a “Worldwide Caution to U.S. citizens” following the killing of Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri:
The Department of State remains concerned about the continued threat of terrorist attacks, demonstrations, and other violent actions against U.S. citizens and interests overseas. The Department of State believes there is a higher potential for anti-American violence given the death of Ayman al-Zawahiri on July 31, 2022. Current information suggests that terrorist organizations continue to plan terrorist attacks against U.S. interests in multiple regions across the globe. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics including suicide operations, assassinations, kidnappings, hijackings, and bombings.
As terrorist attacks, political violence (including demonstrations), criminal activities, and other security incidents often take place without any warning, U.S. citizens are strongly encouraged to maintain a high level of vigilance and practice good situational awareness when traveling abroad. U.S. government facilities worldwide actively monitor potential security threats and may temporarily close or periodically suspend public services to assess their security posture. In those instances, U.S. embassies and consulates will make every effort to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens. U.S. citizens abroad are urged to monitor the local news and maintain contact with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
When planning a trip and prior to departing the United States, U.S. citizens should consult country specific Travel Advisories and information pages on travel.state.gov. Travelers are also urged to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive security messages and to make it easier to locate them in an emergency. The Department uses these security messages to convey information about terrorist threats, security incidents, planned demonstrations, natural disasters, etc. In an emergency, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or consulate or call the following numbers: 1 (888) 407-4747 (toll-free in the United States and Canada) or 1 (202) 501-4444 from other countries.
Private U.S. citizens should not travel to any country to participate in armed conflict. U.S. citizens are reminded that fighting on behalf of, or providing other forms of support to, designated terrorist organizations can constitute the provision of material support for terrorism, which is a serious crime that can result in penalties, including prison time and large fines.

ht, whoever shared the Archive Today link. Thanks again.
(It’s been a day or two, so I forgot.)
Sorry, I’d come to it via ZeroHedge, and stripped off the campaign info. It wasn’t paywalled with the campaign info still attached.
Heck, I’m simply grateful for the pay wall work around. 🙂
UCK FUKRAINE!!!
Yes…
Fox’s Jesse Watters reporting that Nasty’s husband Paulie P. was PLASTERED when he got his DUI a few months ago!!! Police report is damning, he flunked multiple sobriety tests, Reeked of alcohol, was stumbling around, slurring, incoherent, and was also on alcohol and a drug. When the cop asked for his driver’s license, he pulled out his Police Donor Card. Was he trying to bribe them? DA lied about the accident, charged misdemeaner instead of felony because no one was hurt – WRONG!!! The man hurt his rt arm, shoulder, and neck, is having lots of problems and being treated by a Dr. (lawsuit’s a coming 😉) Court tomorrow has banned all press. Anybody surprised? 🙄
Jessie has been all over the ‘Paulie P’ story since day one, like a dog with a bone, and he ain’t letting go. 😂🤣
Sounds like the same way Nanshi is everyday
The pair of them need to be locked up in a sub-zero. All that alcohol and they’d never freeze, though…
When I was little we had a bull dog and a fox terrior. The bulldog would get a running start and get all the way to the top of a 7′ metal playground slide. Like clockwork,the terrior would run after him nipping his heals. He made it maybe 2 feet up the bottom before he fell off, SPLAT, get back up and and yap at BD til he came down. The bulldog would slide (nails on metal😬) backwards down the slide, run around and go again, as long as someone was at the top of the slide. It was nonstop hillarious. Good Times.
