WEBVTT 00:01.140 --> 00:02.020 Just a minute 00:04.860 --> 00:05.640 I'm coming 00:08.480 --> 00:09.480 Just a minute 00:13.120 --> 00:16.560 Hello everybody, this is legal man. Welcome to show. This is gonna be a good episode 00:16.560 --> 00:21.160 I'm going to make kind of an epilogue to my ratification series. This is part one 00:21.160 --> 00:27.060 There will be a part two and I just want to talk about something that came up with regards to the way the 00:27.060 --> 00:28.580 Constitution is referenced 00:29.920 --> 00:34.460 Always conflating the Bill of Rights with the Constitution as though they're one single document 00:34.460 --> 00:41.160 Or as though they were created by the same men and it's just absolutely not the case and for people who don't know me 00:41.160 --> 00:44.760 I'm a lawyer practice for more than 35 years. I'm America's most trusted beloved lawyer 00:44.760 --> 00:49.860 Because I tell people truth and the truth is I was a constitutional conservative for years and years and years 00:49.860 --> 00:53.020 I believed all the same stupid shit that I've blown apart now 00:53.020 --> 01:00.060 But I believed it all ran around defending it supporting it pretending like the document was amazing and the founders were brilliant 01:00.060 --> 01:04.420 Liberty seekers and all this other crap. I did that for years and years and then about 25 years ago 01:04.420 --> 01:08.880 I got the internet and in fairly short order. I started figuring out that that's a complete scam 01:08.880 --> 01:11.100 It's a grift to keep me on a tax-paying plantation 01:11.100 --> 01:12.540 I want to figure that out 01:12.540 --> 01:17.420 I became self-certified as a master practitioner and I don't need constitutional conservatism anymore 01:18.080 --> 01:22.100 I've also given myself a lifetime achievement award for the hundreds and hundreds of timeless podcasts 01:22.100 --> 01:29.060 I've made explaining the way the system actually works. I got a presidential medal of freedom for playing mr 01:29.060 --> 01:31.900 Jones in Jones Plantation and I got a 01:31.900 --> 01:37.140 Nobel Peace Prize for helping to bring the world together when I played Natty in Bartom world 01:37.720 --> 01:43.760 And I love having these ridiculous fake awards and credentials because that entire system is a control system 01:43.760 --> 01:47.900 You see what they do is they force people to memorize officialdom and regurgitate it 01:47.900 --> 01:52.660 And if you don't do that properly then you can't get licensed or certified or get a lifetime achievement award 01:52.660 --> 01:56.020 And the catch is that all the officialdom is a huge pack of lies 01:56.460 --> 02:02.920 And so the way they get people to just regurgitate lies and memorize lies and imagine that the lies are true 02:02.920 --> 02:08.360 Is by having all the experts have to speak nothing but lies in order to be credentialed 02:08.360 --> 02:13.400 And everybody saw that during coveted when certain doctors nurses and academics attempted to speak up tell the truth 02:13.400 --> 02:17.240 Well, they tried to go after them professionally and ruin them destroy them shut them down 02:17.240 --> 02:21.720 Why because you can't speak the truth because the system can't withstand any truth 02:21.720 --> 02:27.340 It can't withstand anybody scrutinizing it because it's just built on just a huge pack of lies 02:27.950 --> 02:32.920 And so they have this system and so I like to make fun of that system and mock it in the attempt 02:32.920 --> 02:36.400 To try to help people understand it and see through it 02:36.400 --> 02:41.720 And then maybe we have a chance of course through years of making podcasts and interacting with the public 02:41.720 --> 02:44.820 It's become clear to me that we aren't ever going to get the people we need 02:44.820 --> 02:49.360 But at least a few people who are searching can at least find some helpful information 02:49.360 --> 02:52.180 And that's why this information is out there. So 02:52.180 --> 02:55.400 All right, enough about all that. Let's go ahead and get this show going 02:56.100 --> 03:03.220 So I want to make a show today. It's kind of an epilogue or maybe a post script to the ratification series 03:03.220 --> 03:08.760 I did I had to look up epilogue to make sure that it even kind of applied. I think it does it's 03:09.540 --> 03:12.180 It's something in between a post script and an epilogue 03:12.180 --> 03:12.840 it's 03:13.420 --> 03:18.600 Really just an idea that came to me as a result of hearing some of these 03:19.160 --> 03:24.000 crazy different sort of videos one of which i'm going to make a show about and 03:24.640 --> 03:28.100 You know, it's always the same thing with this whole constitution 03:28.880 --> 03:29.520 brilliance 03:30.060 --> 03:35.900 The founders the miracle of philadelphia the fantastic rights we got and all this other stuff 03:35.900 --> 03:37.780 it's always there and 03:37.780 --> 03:45.180 I had a thought about it and I got up one morning last weekend and I was doing some nosing around on the internet about it 03:45.180 --> 03:52.940 And I determined that I've never really addressed this issue at all because I'd never really thought about it in these terms 03:52.940 --> 03:55.420 And even though I've talked all around it 03:55.420 --> 04:02.400 I'd never actually seen the connection between the way they talk about the constitution 04:03.260 --> 04:05.700 And when they talk about the constitution 04:06.280 --> 04:08.280 They mean the constitution 04:08.960 --> 04:10.220 And the bill of rights 04:10.800 --> 04:18.380 That's always pushed together as one thing. It's true that you'll get some technical thing in there about how the bill of rights were 04:18.380 --> 04:23.600 You know the states insisted or they'll make some mention of it and then we got the bill of rights 04:23.600 --> 04:25.620 But most of the time they're just shoved together 04:26.300 --> 04:29.860 As one thing the constitution the bill of rights as though that's 04:29.860 --> 04:33.560 This thing that our fantastic founders gave us 04:33.560 --> 04:36.720 And after having done that long ratification series 04:37.060 --> 04:43.000 It became clear to me as I thought about it that this is a very subtle but 04:43.440 --> 04:47.760 unbelievably important and critically powerful piece of propaganda 04:48.280 --> 04:50.160 To mush these things together 04:50.780 --> 04:54.020 Because I was thinking what rights are there 04:54.620 --> 04:58.100 That the constitution gave us and protected us with 04:58.670 --> 04:59.920 And the answer is none 04:59.920 --> 05:05.120 If you look at the actual constitution what actually came out of philadelphia 05:05.120 --> 05:09.920 It has nothing to do with those bill of rights. I mean nothing at all 05:09.920 --> 05:15.680 The constitution as it stands as a document doesn't protect anybody's rights whatsoever 05:15.680 --> 05:18.460 The teeny little bit of rights it does protect 05:18.460 --> 05:21.080 They only need protecting from the federal government 05:21.080 --> 05:24.860 Because this new giant government was being formed 05:24.860 --> 05:28.340 In place of the government that already existed that they were 05:28.860 --> 05:32.820 Illegally and without any legitimate authority shoving through 05:33.630 --> 05:40.720 But this point that the constitution is not the constitution that protects our rights 05:41.310 --> 05:47.820 It's not this is an incredibly important feature of this propaganda scandal 05:47.820 --> 05:54.400 And as I went through the thing and was looking at different ways to check it and see if I could find any 05:54.860 --> 05:59.140 Citals and people talking about it. I came across some stuff with chat gpt 05:59.860 --> 06:09.060 And this entire area this idea that the constitution is not the constitution and the bill of rights that protects you people's rights 06:09.540 --> 06:12.540 Is really never discussed. I couldn't find any 06:13.100 --> 06:16.620 Citations to it. I couldn't find any references to it. It's true 06:17.040 --> 06:22.080 That they do distinguish them as far as the way it actually happened 06:22.080 --> 06:27.580 But that's just quickly discussed and then all again the rest of the time they constantly conflate 06:27.580 --> 06:31.560 The idea that the constitution is the constitution of the bill of rights 06:32.160 --> 06:39.640 And it's really interesting to me because I tried to go through and find any actual rights that were being protected 06:39.640 --> 06:45.020 By the constitution and there's just nothing in there. You'll hear people talking about the fantastic constitution 06:45.540 --> 06:51.080 and the way the constitution is this kind of written document this genius of 06:51.820 --> 06:56.280 Enlightenment to protect the people and liberties and all this other shit you hear it endlessly 06:56.820 --> 06:59.960 And of course the way it works is they talk about the declaration of independence 07:00.620 --> 07:09.000 All men are created equal and then they basically imply that we got this constitution to create a government to protect these fantastic rights 07:09.640 --> 07:13.060 But none of that's true. See none of that is true at all 07:13.820 --> 07:20.260 The document as presented by the holy founders it left everything out all of that was completely left out 07:20.260 --> 07:26.320 In fact, it had to be forced in and the men in Philadelphia not only didn't put it in 07:27.140 --> 07:29.600 They actually fought against it 07:29.600 --> 07:32.740 They fought against it in the holy federalist papers 07:32.740 --> 07:39.260 So when you hear these discussions all the time about the constitution protecting rights and individual liberty and all this 07:39.260 --> 07:44.640 Shit which the con cons and everybody else just drones on about endlessly 07:45.360 --> 07:49.060 You have to remember that that's not true at all 07:49.060 --> 07:55.440 The document as it exists does nothing but create a gigantic federal government 07:55.440 --> 07:58.900 That supposedly checks itself in this fantasy fashion 07:58.900 --> 08:05.060 And of course I've discussed that at length the way the document doesn't work doesn't do anything they say 08:05.060 --> 08:09.460 But this is a much subtler point. I think in my opinion 08:09.460 --> 08:13.180 And I think it'll also become clear if you think back about the way 08:13.760 --> 08:19.360 Even a health felter talked about it where it did this to protect the liberty and all this other shit 08:19.360 --> 08:25.540 The constitution does none of those things people act like the bill of rights is part of the constitution. It's not 08:26.220 --> 08:32.400 It's not part of the constitution. It's true that it supposedly later became part of the constitution as an amendment 08:32.400 --> 08:38.160 But it's not part of the constitution that they created in philadelphia this miracle the founders worked on 08:38.160 --> 08:43.660 In fact the founders fought against this and in the federalist papers. They said all sorts of things about that 08:43.660 --> 08:50.480 They argued that the bill of rights wasn't necessary because the new government had limited powers imagine if we didn't have the bill of rights 08:51.020 --> 08:56.900 If the federalists had carried the day they were running around acting like the federalists of these people who were fighting for liberty and freedom and 08:57.560 --> 08:59.440 Montesquieu and fucking lock and all this 08:59.440 --> 09:02.300 Individual this and that that's all shit 09:02.960 --> 09:09.880 They argued that the constitution itself was so limited the way the federal government was created that it wasn't necessary 09:09.880 --> 09:16.740 Even though they had stuck in all these barnum statements about necessary and proper to commerce clause and general welfare 09:16.740 --> 09:22.480 And all this other miscellaneous shit in this massive taxing authority the ability to create this huge military 09:22.480 --> 09:28.880 All the things I went through in that ratification series and showed you the way the articles of confederation worked 09:28.880 --> 09:30.140 and of course the 09:30.820 --> 09:33.620 Entire propaganda about the ratification 09:34.420 --> 09:37.420 Is that we had to have this government protect our rights? 09:37.540 --> 09:40.380 Of course you heard that in the helfelder and you're going to hear it in other ones 09:40.380 --> 09:44.840 I'm going to play a few more clips not in this show, but in a totally separate show 09:44.840 --> 09:47.820 Which was what sort of triggered me thinking about it 09:47.820 --> 09:52.700 The federalists also argued that the structure of government itself will protect the liberty 09:52.700 --> 09:58.080 That somehow the separation of powers and checks and balances and all this shit would somehow protect liberty 09:58.080 --> 10:02.920 Well, they talk about this thing that no one person could ever be in charge of this 10:02.920 --> 10:04.980 And they have to be checked and all this other shit 10:04.980 --> 10:08.040 They leave out the fact that the way the constitution structured 10:08.040 --> 10:13.120 There's two parties the government and the people they act like the government has three different parts 10:13.120 --> 10:16.960 That are somehow at odds with each other. They aren't they all work together 10:16.960 --> 10:20.960 So the government is the one thing the one entity that was in fact 10:20.960 --> 10:27.240 Empowered to do all of it and anybody can see that's exactly what ends up happening in practice 10:27.240 --> 10:32.020 This is exactly what the anti federalists said that you can't have it like this 10:32.880 --> 10:37.800 The fucking federalists are the ones that argue we don't need any of these additional protections for liberty 10:37.800 --> 10:44.900 And they insisted that somehow this separation of powers and made up checks and balances nonsense would be a safeguard 10:47.220 --> 10:51.920 And then they also argued that the people themselves are the guardians of liberty 10:51.920 --> 10:57.580 Well, the idea that somehow these elected officials can can somehow do something 10:57.580 --> 11:02.780 Well, I've blown that apart a million different ways. So a spoon or showing your vote of shit. It doesn't work 11:02.780 --> 11:05.020 You can't do anything with them. They don't have recall 11:05.020 --> 11:10.960 They pulled the recall portions out of the arms of confederation when they wrote the constitution 11:10.960 --> 11:17.420 That's where the real protection is they did all those different things in the constitution that they shouldn't have done 11:17.420 --> 11:19.580 They made the federal government itself 11:20.140 --> 11:25.580 Superior to the state governments. There's no reason the world the state governments would have ever agreed to this 11:25.580 --> 11:31.760 There was absolutely not one single conflict going on where the states were challenging the federal government's powers 11:31.760 --> 11:33.760 Under the articles of confederation 11:34.460 --> 11:40.880 And there's absolutely nothing you can do to check the federal government. Everybody sees that in the civil war 11:40.880 --> 11:47.860 Not only have they outlawed even discussing doing about it the only entity that's allowed to so-called 11:48.520 --> 11:50.640 Check the federal government is the federal government itself 11:51.340 --> 11:54.860 And if the states try to do it, they just bring the entire military in 11:56.440 --> 12:00.440 What the anti-federalists said I think one of the best sort of 12:00.800 --> 12:07.140 Summations of it was in the very first brutus essay and it said that the powers of congress are so extensive 12:07.140 --> 12:12.420 And so undefined that there is no security for the liberty of the people 12:12.420 --> 12:17.400 This constitution if established will totally annihilate the state governments 12:17.860 --> 12:21.520 And place all power in the hands of a few men at the seat of government 12:22.040 --> 12:28.260 Is that not exactly what the constitution actually does? Yes, it is it's exactly what the constitution does 12:28.260 --> 12:32.520 And to talk about it in terms of protecting liberty and limiting government is laughable 12:32.520 --> 12:36.760 Every single thing you ever hear about any of that is about the amendments 12:37.760 --> 12:39.320 There are literally no 12:39.920 --> 12:45.700 New rights protected you will hear people talk about it in these terms like helfelder and levin and all these 12:45.700 --> 12:49.300 These fucking jokers it's on every side though. It's the liberals. It's everybody 12:49.300 --> 12:53.640 They talk about rights being protected equal this and equal that and all men are created equal 12:53.640 --> 12:57.280 They take that declaration of independence language 12:57.900 --> 12:59.200 And then they take the 12:59.840 --> 13:06.480 Intro to the constitution all we the people do this and that in order form a more perfect governed blah blah established this 13:06.480 --> 13:12.020 That and then they break something out that doesn't do anything like what they just said and what they just said 13:12.020 --> 13:15.600 Is in no way binding in any form or fashion 13:16.180 --> 13:20.960 The only rights I can really find that are even in there that are supposedly being protected 13:21.940 --> 13:27.280 Our habeas corpus. Well, you don't need that under the art of the confederation because they weren't doing it 13:27.280 --> 13:29.380 The federal government doing that's left the states 13:29.380 --> 13:35.660 Exposed facto laws there were no exposed facto laws being passed under the art of confederation 13:35.660 --> 13:40.660 Neither could there be and the states themselves were the ones who were going to enforce any of this stuff 13:40.660 --> 13:43.020 So they could always veto that shed 13:43.800 --> 13:49.300 No titles of nobility. What a fucking joke the art of confederation you could have whoever you wanted in there 13:49.300 --> 13:52.640 Wouldn't have mattered and trial by jury in criminal cases 13:53.160 --> 13:58.140 Well, again, you don't have the art of confederation wasn't creating this massive 13:58.720 --> 14:03.460 Behemoth of a federal government that was going to be running around trying everybody now 14:03.460 --> 14:08.260 They have a department of justice created after the civil war once the states could no longer fight back 14:08.860 --> 14:13.800 Running around suing people civilly criminally in a thousand different ways with absolutely 14:13.800 --> 14:21.440 No consequence to them these federal judges who are completely out of control the congress totally out of control full on corruption everywhere 14:21.440 --> 14:27.680 Nothing happens to any of them. See the constitution doesn't protect any of your rights 14:27.680 --> 14:35.060 All of those rights already existed. They all existed in the state governments. They all had constitutions themselves 14:35.880 --> 14:40.220 And I remember at health elder talking about how all while you have to have this to protect this now, dude 14:40.660 --> 14:42.700 The state governments all protected them 14:43.240 --> 14:44.680 They all protected them 14:45.300 --> 14:46.480 It's so ridiculous 14:48.780 --> 14:55.880 This idea we needed this federal government this constitution was drawn up in philadelphia to protect that's not true 14:56.500 --> 14:58.440 She has fundamentally not true 14:58.440 --> 15:04.920 Not only all those reasons i've given in the ratification series showing you that the way they got the 15:04.920 --> 15:09.040 Document itself was laughable, but the document itself 15:09.680 --> 15:15.680 Forget all the problems i pointed out. It doesn't fit in any way with protecting 15:16.440 --> 15:16.800 people 15:17.380 --> 15:19.220 It doesn't protect them at all 15:20.160 --> 15:26.160 We needed the ninth and tenth amendments just to be sure and guess what the federal government has totally and completely ignored the 15:26.160 --> 15:29.900 Ninth and tenth amendments just completely and totally ignored them 15:30.720 --> 15:36.660 This part of the scam is so subtle yet so important 15:37.640 --> 15:45.940 See they teach the history and the founding of this country as though you have this declaration of independence language 15:46.700 --> 15:51.040 And then you have a government that was formed the constitution 15:51.400 --> 15:56.680 To so-called uphold these ideals and protect the individuals and that is run together 15:57.400 --> 15:57.960 endlessly 15:57.960 --> 16:05.380 In every kind of movie and tv show and i don't think i'll get to it today, but i've got a bunch of examples to show people that 16:06.980 --> 16:12.760 It's just all shoved together and that's why people imagine that the constitution protects freedoms. It doesn't 16:12.760 --> 16:18.000 See it doesn't protect anything at all when it comes to the people and 16:18.560 --> 16:22.460 Yet another hilarious thing they do is they constantly cite 16:22.460 --> 16:28.320 The declaration of independence language about all men and created equal life liberty pursuit of happiness all this 16:29.120 --> 16:31.760 inspirational aspirational moral horseshit 16:32.620 --> 16:35.900 Revolutionary sounding stuff they put that in the declaration of independence 16:36.880 --> 16:41.380 And then they leave out the fact that jefferson opposed the constitution 16:42.520 --> 16:48.600 So they use jefferson's language about that then they leave out the fact that he opposed the constitution 16:48.600 --> 16:51.920 He was an anti-federalist of course he got back on board later 16:51.920 --> 16:55.660 And i'll get into some of that because he was just a man who recognized 16:56.660 --> 16:57.880 Pragmatism what can you do? 16:58.380 --> 17:01.820 What can you do? It's just like today. What are you going to do about the federal government once they won? 17:01.920 --> 17:05.900 Once you realize they have all this power and all this money and they're just going to come arrest you 17:05.900 --> 17:07.300 What are you going to do? There's nothing you can do 17:07.300 --> 17:09.860 but the way the con works is 17:10.420 --> 17:17.720 They teach this language that sounds so wonderful about how all men are created equal and then they immediately talk about the 17:17.720 --> 17:22.380 Constitution fulfilling that ideal the system of government that enshrined those rights 17:22.380 --> 17:26.100 And made them real and all this other shit. They talk about that endlessly 17:26.100 --> 17:30.560 They always leave out the articles in federation and that's why and that's one of the reasons 17:30.560 --> 17:34.460 I wanted to do that long ratification series and that's it was an important piece 17:34.460 --> 17:40.540 It's not that i've never noticed that it's just that this way they conflate the constitution and the bill of rights is 17:40.540 --> 17:46.160 So important because the constitution doesn't do anything whatsoever to enshrine any of those rights 17:46.160 --> 17:48.780 But they teach it declaration of independence language 17:49.360 --> 17:52.660 Constitution to protect all that no mention of the 17:53.280 --> 17:55.800 articles in federation at all none whatsoever 17:56.220 --> 18:02.440 No mention of the fact that declaration of independence is a completely different document that has literally no valid 18:02.440 --> 18:06.020 binding legal effect under the constitution 18:06.760 --> 18:13.280 None whatsoever and that the constitution as proposed by the holy founders was written in philadelphia 18:13.280 --> 18:19.480 Well, how could they have all these discussions about natural rights and the ability to protect people and all this other shit 18:19.480 --> 18:25.120 Like we're told at the constitutional convention, which i've now showed is just a total lie 18:25.120 --> 18:27.680 There's absolutely no part of it actually occurred and then 18:28.500 --> 18:33.520 Have a constitution that comes out that doesn't protect individual rights in any form or fashion 18:34.080 --> 18:39.580 That the people themselves had to stand up object and say we're not even going to ratify this piece of shit 18:39.580 --> 18:45.760 Even with their absurd system they had of steamrolling everybody. They still had to do it 18:45.760 --> 18:47.540 They still had to 18:47.540 --> 18:55.320 Give in and give these amendments, which then of course were immediately written out by the courts whenever they cared to 18:55.800 --> 18:57.200 Whenever they cared to 18:57.960 --> 19:03.300 They've actually used the first ten amendments as a sword 19:03.300 --> 19:08.460 For the federal government to take control of state governments when the bill of rights 19:08.460 --> 19:14.380 Was never intended to apply the states in any form or fashion and everybody knew that prior to the civil war 19:14.380 --> 19:16.360 But once the civil war was fought it was over 19:17.040 --> 19:20.160 Once the civil war was over that was it 19:20.700 --> 19:25.260 Then they started this incorporation document started applying the first ten amendments 19:25.260 --> 19:31.320 To the states themselves so that the federal government could once again start controlling everything from a centralized position 19:33.680 --> 19:34.200 And 19:34.200 --> 19:37.000 Jefferson wasn't even in the country when the constitution 19:37.560 --> 19:43.360 Was written when this holy constitutional convention was convened, which it wasn't anyway 19:43.360 --> 19:47.920 They were just supposed to go amend the articles of confederation. He wasn't even the country 19:47.920 --> 19:51.920 He was in france. He had a lot of the back and forth with hamilton or 19:51.920 --> 19:55.620 Some in one of these so-called holy founders 19:56.180 --> 20:00.480 And he just talked about how the fact that he didn't trust this centralized federal government at all 20:01.100 --> 20:07.440 And that he insisted on explicit protections that there are no actual protections for the individuals 20:08.120 --> 20:10.200 And he wanted actual state control 20:10.780 --> 20:16.660 He wanted the original artisan federation. There was nothing in there that makes any sense about expanding it out 20:16.660 --> 20:18.860 I've showed you that again and again and again 20:19.560 --> 20:24.300 I mean once he got into power once jefferson rally. Well, this is a done deal. Well, whatever 20:24.300 --> 20:27.060 Let's at least get the first ten amendments get something in there 20:27.060 --> 20:29.540 And then he just immediately joined government himself 20:30.100 --> 20:33.360 Became president first became vice president all this other shit 20:34.120 --> 20:37.280 Secretariat state or some other thing which as soon as he gets in there 20:37.280 --> 20:42.620 He does the entire louisiana purchase which is laughably unconstitutional everybody knew it 20:44.140 --> 20:47.720 I mean just think how important that is think 20:48.280 --> 20:53.740 How few people have the slightest idea of anything i just said think how they teach it 20:54.200 --> 20:56.820 Think what a total deception that is 20:57.060 --> 21:02.200 Think how important that is because you think about the constitution. What do you immediately think you think of the founders 21:02.200 --> 21:06.100 What do you think then you think of philadelphia and writing the constitution and all this 21:06.100 --> 21:12.600 Amazing revolutionary shit with the equal protection and the declaration and all men created equal and all this other shit 21:12.600 --> 21:14.900 Literally no part of that's in the constitution 21:15.520 --> 21:16.740 No part of it whatsoever 21:17.440 --> 21:19.140 And they actually 21:19.920 --> 21:22.400 Continue this unbelievable fraud 21:22.930 --> 21:30.280 By one step further they actually have put the declaration of independence into the u.s. Code which i've also brought up before 21:30.770 --> 21:33.100 So they give this impression 21:33.590 --> 21:38.240 That it's an organic law of the united states which is what they say specifically in there 21:38.240 --> 21:40.760 It's right in the beginning of us code one 21:41.350 --> 21:43.200 The declaration of independence 21:44.380 --> 21:49.280 Makes it sound so foundational. Well, it's perfectly with this entire 21:49.280 --> 21:56.180 Propaganda narrative about how the constitution was the culmination of this incredible 21:57.040 --> 22:00.960 Enlightenment of protecting individuals that's completely the opposite 22:00.960 --> 22:06.040 It was a coup that completely dislodged a government which was the art of the federation 22:06.040 --> 22:10.320 Which was supposed to exist perpetually which is what it said inside the document 22:10.320 --> 22:16.280 And wasn't supposed to be amended unless everybody agreed they just ignored all of that and shoved through this thing 22:16.280 --> 22:22.200 With all this governmental power with these sort of vague discussions about how well it was a work and it's failing 22:22.200 --> 22:25.660 Well, I've gone over that in detail in that series 22:26.640 --> 22:33.660 But the impression lingers it remains because it's reinforced all the time the constitution means protection of liberty 22:33.660 --> 22:38.000 And the first thing to do is they'll start talking about freedom of religion and speech and the search and seizure 22:38.000 --> 22:40.320 None of that shits in the constitution, dude 22:40.860 --> 22:41.840 None of it 22:41.840 --> 22:48.080 They put that declaration of independence at the very start of the code 22:48.560 --> 22:53.200 And then they have the audacity to outlaw doing 22:53.200 --> 23:01.840 Anything in there in the declaration of independence or even discussing it. So the government that supposedly protects human rights 23:02.460 --> 23:07.280 Has outlawed doing what the entire government was supposedly founded upon 23:07.280 --> 23:14.200 Which was this universal principle that the individuals themselves have these rights given from god and whenever the problem rises 23:14.200 --> 23:16.600 They have an absolute right to overthrow the government 23:17.280 --> 23:22.420 And of course the courts back all of that up and convict people all the time 23:22.420 --> 23:26.700 Of some kind of seditious plot to overthrow the government 23:26.700 --> 23:34.640 You see in fact these mag idiots everywhere who are constantly talking about it. They post it all the time 23:35.760 --> 23:42.680 All the time they post shit about all seditious conspiracy and attempt to overthrow it and all this treason and all this other shit 23:42.680 --> 23:48.940 Well, I don't understand if the most fundamental organic law of this country 23:48.940 --> 23:55.440 Which is the very first thing in the very first chapter of the very first code one of the u.s 23:55.440 --> 24:01.440 Code is that the people have this independent right that comes from god and nobody can ever take it away 24:01.440 --> 24:05.740 And there's certainly no government can and in fact the people have a duty and obligation to overthrow it 24:05.740 --> 24:11.160 Whenever it does this how in the hell can that same government have outlawed it even discussing it 24:11.720 --> 24:16.580 And how can a court that swears to uphold the constitution ever make sense of this? 24:16.620 --> 24:18.620 Well, the constitution has nothing to do with this 24:18.620 --> 24:22.820 It doesn't have anything to do with that and the declaration of independence is not a law of any sort 24:23.660 --> 24:24.500 That's why 24:25.400 --> 24:29.120 And every level of education teaches this lie 24:29.840 --> 24:35.200 Every single level of education all the way through law school completely and totally 24:35.700 --> 24:38.800 covers this shit up and just teaches this 24:39.520 --> 24:45.360 odd strange very subtle way of having people believe that 24:45.360 --> 24:47.500 The constitution itself 24:48.400 --> 24:51.820 Somehow is there to protect people's rights 24:54.160 --> 24:58.340 And it is unbelievable to me because it's so preposterous 24:58.340 --> 25:05.120 If you just look at it you can see that there's nothing in there and any time you ask for any examples 25:05.120 --> 25:08.580 They will start giving you stuff from the bill of rights 25:08.580 --> 25:12.360 And the bill of rights was no part of the constitution 25:12.360 --> 25:17.860 And in fact the same people who wrote the constitution are the people who objected to the bill of rights 25:17.860 --> 25:24.060 So the people who objected to all these individual rights claiming they're already protected by this piece of shit document 25:24.060 --> 25:31.180 They'd written in secret and we got the notes from 50 years later were the ones who were standing against it 25:31.180 --> 25:39.120 It really be impossible to have a system that was much more upside down than what we have 25:42.760 --> 25:50.300 It's funny to me it's it's hilarious to me and I looked up some of these examples that they use to teach people 25:50.860 --> 25:54.360 And they have something called the Center for American Cytics 25:54.360 --> 25:59.200 And it's a it supposedly teaches principles of this American Republic 25:59.200 --> 26:03.660 And I'm sure Prager U has the same kind of garbage and I've got a couple of funny things 26:03.660 --> 26:06.680 I'm going to make a show out of at least one of them for sure on this topic 26:07.420 --> 26:10.180 But the thing they teach 26:10.780 --> 26:17.660 Is that the U.S. Constitution creates a practical structure and rules for protecting the basic rights of all Americans 26:17.660 --> 26:23.240 This is one of the standard things they teach in this American civics kind of the university 26:23.240 --> 26:29.320 And in fact they even have a question I found in a quiz that says what does the constitution do 26:29.320 --> 26:31.820 And it gives you a choice of answers 26:32.380 --> 26:37.900 Sets up a government defines the parts and powers of the government protects basic rights of Americans 26:38.540 --> 26:41.640 Those are supposedly the correct answers protect 26:42.580 --> 26:44.340 Basic rights of Americans 26:44.960 --> 26:47.180 Center for American Civics 26:47.660 --> 26:51.740 Does that not sound exactly like everything you hear no part of that's true 26:51.740 --> 26:53.420 That is a complete and total 26:54.400 --> 27:00.120 Misrepresentation of the document the only way you get there is by conflating two totally separate things 27:00.120 --> 27:06.500 The writing of the constitution by our holy founders and then the forcing on those men 27:06.980 --> 27:12.900 Of the bill of rights in order to try to get some kind of limited protections for the people 27:12.900 --> 27:16.960 And yet they act like the founders and their brilliance and wisdom 27:17.500 --> 27:22.020 Gave us this anyone who listens to the constitutional conservatives will hear this shit 27:22.020 --> 27:28.080 Anyone who listens to liberals will hear this same shit. This is what they agree on just like they agree on the civil war 27:28.080 --> 27:33.720 That it was about slavery and it had to do this was bad and evil and blah blah and the government had to step in 27:33.720 --> 27:35.460 All of a sudden just to complete fucking lives 27:36.900 --> 27:41.760 Here's another thing they said at that same institution the constitution creates a former government 27:41.760 --> 27:46.180 We have a federal republic the u.s. Constitution supreme law the land 27:46.180 --> 27:52.760 Establishing the federal government defining government's powers and protecting the basic rights of all americans 27:52.760 --> 27:55.460 It doesn't protect the basic rights of any americans 27:55.920 --> 28:02.660 It created a complete fucking coup and a massive federal government and it doesn't protect any 28:04.120 --> 28:07.980 Even though the idea that the constitution 28:08.700 --> 28:13.840 With the bill of rights does okay, there's no statement that the constitution 28:14.460 --> 28:17.080 That as it was originally ratified did not do that 28:17.080 --> 28:19.960 He remember took two more years to get the other one through 28:20.540 --> 28:24.860 And that was after they were fighting about it. It became obvious. They were never going to get it fully ratified 28:24.860 --> 28:26.120 They didn't have the bill of rights 28:27.860 --> 28:30.640 I just think how absurdly uh 28:31.520 --> 28:36.820 Misrepresentative that is misleading intentionally so see intentionally so because 28:37.420 --> 28:41.680 Again, I don't think I'll get to it in this in fact. I know I won't get to it in this episode 28:41.680 --> 28:44.180 But I had a lot of chats with chat gpt 28:44.180 --> 28:51.320 And it turns out that arrow area is one of the most closely curated areas in the entire set of chat gpt 28:52.800 --> 28:56.860 Information they never want to give you information and when I do that episode 28:56.860 --> 29:01.580 You're going to see how funny it is how chat gpt will lock down and not tell you this 29:01.580 --> 29:05.000 But there are other things I looked at as far as teaching tools 29:05.520 --> 29:11.620 This is something called open stacks, which is uh us history textbooks very very commonly used 29:12.360 --> 29:17.060 And in the sort of opening introductory chapter on the constitution 29:17.660 --> 29:22.160 It says that we the people secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves in our posterity 29:22.160 --> 29:28.400 This is the the language in the preamble. That's not part of it in another section 29:28.400 --> 29:34.680 It talks about how the constitution guaranteed a right to vote for some citizens with the 14th amendment 29:35.000 --> 29:39.040 Okay. Well, that's again. That's literally a hundred years afterwards 29:41.440 --> 29:47.000 And as usual the preamble is talked about how it's used to secure this liberty 29:47.000 --> 29:53.980 Which of course is always tied back to this we the people from the declaration of independence 29:56.780 --> 30:00.760 Here's another one I found which was the asu civic literacy curriculum 30:01.320 --> 30:08.000 And it's under the systems of government section. It says the constitution uses three basic techniques to guarantee liberty 30:08.520 --> 30:12.240 It doesn't use any of them first federalism divides power 30:12.240 --> 30:16.720 It doesn't use that we had the article from federation. It already was there 30:17.240 --> 30:21.000 Second the separation of powers checks and balances again 30:21.000 --> 30:27.360 This is a complete misstatement all the powers in the hands of one entity the federal government 30:27.360 --> 30:31.720 There's no such thing as a check and balance a separation of power 30:31.720 --> 30:37.120 Separation of power comes between two different types of governments two different entities 30:37.540 --> 30:42.080 The holy enlightenment makes that very clear that one man can't be entrusted. Okay 30:42.080 --> 30:46.240 So they did entrust in effect one man the u.s. Government 30:46.240 --> 30:49.720 All three branches are being paid by the same taxes 30:50.300 --> 30:52.160 And the last thing it says and there's third 30:53.220 --> 30:59.040 Constitutional rights, especially in the bill of rights 14th amendment article 1 and section 9 and 10 30:59.040 --> 31:04.160 Individual liberties no government can infringe. Well, the articles of confederation 31:04.160 --> 31:07.760 Didn't have a government strong enough at the federal level to do that stuff 31:07.760 --> 31:12.140 They weren't going to be able to infringe anybody the way it was set up. Those were real checks and balances 31:12.720 --> 31:15.160 None of these bills of rights or the constitution 31:15.660 --> 31:21.120 These aren't constitutional rights that were set up. These are rights that were insisted on in order to check the 31:21.120 --> 31:28.420 Constitution colliam constitutional rights is just hilarious to me. It's just a very clever way. They do it 31:28.900 --> 31:39.060 They merge all together this federalism separation of powers constitutional rights as though the constitution did something to guarantee liberty 31:39.420 --> 31:41.880 And it didn't do anything to guarantee liberty 31:43.020 --> 31:44.880 It did the exact opposite 31:45.500 --> 31:49.380 It did the exact opposite. That's what's so 31:49.380 --> 31:55.240 Funny to me and when I realized wow, this is such a seriously important 31:56.020 --> 31:59.800 type of brainwashing that's being used because 32:00.720 --> 32:06.960 It's everywhere. It's so insanely everywhere that there's a meme that runs around all the time 32:07.500 --> 32:12.820 That says that the constitution that formed our government gives us the right to overthrow it 32:12.820 --> 32:17.620 Say that all the time they talk about how our own constitution that formed our government 32:17.620 --> 32:20.220 Gives us the right to overthrow it. That's how 32:20.980 --> 32:26.840 totally and completely brainwashed people are by this very subtle conflation of 32:26.840 --> 32:31.920 The idea of the bill of rights with the constitution 32:32.630 --> 32:39.440 And the founders and how it was created back to the Declaration of Independence to protect all these rights 32:39.440 --> 32:42.560 When they skip over the articles of confederation 32:43.300 --> 32:44.700 That's how it works 32:45.340 --> 32:50.100 That's the scam and that's why it's so heavily protected 32:50.700 --> 32:54.800 It's so incredibly heavily protected. It's mind bending the 32:55.380 --> 32:58.980 Discussion I had with chat gbt, which I'm going to do a show about 32:59.580 --> 33:02.140 Had all these different things I was getting these weird answers 33:02.140 --> 33:08.660 And that was when I first started looking into just trying to do really just noodling around trying to find a little bit of information about 33:08.660 --> 33:14.000 You know, who else talks about this because again, I've never seen anybody talking about this 33:14.000 --> 33:18.340 This was another area and the reason I decided to make this epilogue 33:18.340 --> 33:22.260 Of this entire ratification process, which is never 33:22.800 --> 33:23.440 Disgust 33:24.000 --> 33:29.200 Nobody has ever done a series like I did. Nobody has ever talked about it 33:29.200 --> 33:34.400 I've looked for 25 years on the internet for every kind of different conspiracy and 33:34.400 --> 33:38.900 Miscellaneous thing and spoon arrest this and that nobody covers this 33:39.440 --> 33:43.980 Nobody covers this conflation and how important it is 33:44.500 --> 33:51.580 To absolutely 100 brainwash tie the people's thoughts of the constitution to protecting your rights 33:51.580 --> 33:56.940 Protecting the rights of people they talk about it all the time anybody who just thinks about it for a moment 33:56.940 --> 34:01.860 Well realize all the different times you've heard this of the different people that call in from shows 34:01.860 --> 34:10.480 Every kind of tv show every kind of movie entertainment and in fact next time I'm going to go through some of the examples that I had 34:10.480 --> 34:15.960 And pulled up and had chat gbt pull up some of these different examples from movies and television shows 34:16.440 --> 34:20.020 About the way they impressed this stuff on people and how they 34:20.560 --> 34:27.420 Brainwash the people with this concept so that nobody ever catches on that hold it the constitution screwed us 34:27.420 --> 34:34.540 It didn't protect jack shit this idea that it was some kind of amazing document from the enlightenment era to protect individuals is laughable 34:35.200 --> 34:39.740 Every structural thing it put in there with regards to so-called keeping the government limited 34:39.740 --> 34:44.200 Obviously none of them work. They obviously don't work with the largest government the world's ever seen 34:44.200 --> 34:51.040 How can a document like that be the route from which the largest government ever existed has sprung 34:51.040 --> 34:55.860 The federal government literally controls any and every part of your life it cares to it just takes it all over 34:55.860 --> 35:01.300 You have no rights against it the courts themselves just eliminate them whenever they care to 35:01.820 --> 35:04.220 Literally every part of it stood on its head 35:04.220 --> 35:08.000 But still the people can't see it because the brainwashing always with the brainwash 35:08.000 --> 35:09.780 We had the declaration of independence 35:09.780 --> 35:15.380 We had the right to life liberty to pursue the happiness all men are created equal and it was an aspirational thing 35:15.380 --> 35:20.120 It wasn't perfect, but it still protected rights greater than anybody had ever had bullshit 35:20.840 --> 35:23.940 The people had all these rights protected in their state governments 35:24.540 --> 35:30.680 The federal constitution came in and trampled all that shit and the people even the little resistances 35:30.680 --> 35:34.600 They were able to put up. They understood that this was hugely dangerous 35:34.600 --> 35:41.300 What was going on instead all of that has been completely whitewashed and rewritten as every side continues to produce 35:41.300 --> 35:48.700 The same exact kind of propaganda around they totally completely circle the wagons close ranks whatever else you want to say 35:48.700 --> 35:52.880 About defending the constitution being this amazing miracle document 35:53.510 --> 35:58.080 Written during the enlightenment in order to protect individuals and everything else 35:58.980 --> 36:02.960 Yet when you see that that's not the case now again 36:02.960 --> 36:11.280 The blindfold comes off and you see the nature of the very insidious brainwash that's gone on about that document 36:11.280 --> 36:16.500 The document all the constitution meaning the constitution and the bill of rights 36:16.500 --> 36:24.340 Uh, those are completely separate documents that are just as different as the declaration of independence and the constitution are 36:24.340 --> 36:26.460 They stand in opposition to each other 36:26.460 --> 36:33.860 The bill of rights is a check an attempted check a desperate last minute check to try to 36:33.860 --> 36:37.140 Check the federal government that the constitution was creating 36:37.140 --> 36:41.400 This is insane behemoth that was just going to run on and control everybody's lives 36:41.400 --> 36:47.120 Which of course is exactly what it went on and did and all of those rights you have every single one of them 36:47.120 --> 36:52.720 Just been eviscerated the second amendment. There's a thousand different regulations around your first amendment. Good luck 36:53.280 --> 36:57.940 Your right to seek a redress of grievances against the government all completely gone 36:57.940 --> 37:01.840 They dreamed up all this different miscellaneous shit sovereign immunity and everything else 37:02.820 --> 37:08.380 The declaration of independence the right to stand up to the government all completely gone all the rights that matter 37:08.380 --> 37:09.860 They're all just gone people 37:10.340 --> 37:13.760 They completely abuse you with an income tax. They have no right to enforce 37:14.400 --> 37:18.520 They have a department of justice with thousands of lawyers running or harassing you 37:19.080 --> 37:24.060 filing bullshit cases no consequence at all to them the federal government does whatever they want 37:25.840 --> 37:30.620 It's not a document that protects individual liberty. It never was 37:31.160 --> 37:35.960 You don't even have to make an argument about well, you we think is this no read the document 37:35.960 --> 37:40.280 They will try to read the document with the second set of documents 37:40.280 --> 37:45.740 Which is the bill of rights, which was a totally separate set of documents that was designed to try to check 37:45.740 --> 37:48.040 The insanity that had just been created 37:49.840 --> 37:53.600 And it didn't work anyway, but they want credit for it 37:53.600 --> 37:57.460 I defy anyone to find a discussion 37:58.120 --> 38:03.980 That's a discussion about the founding of this country that doesn't conflate those two and talk about the founders 38:03.980 --> 38:09.620 Protecting liberty and everything else with the implication that the bill of rights was somehow part of our founding 38:10.140 --> 38:11.960 I defy you to find one 38:12.660 --> 38:14.700 Nobody ever tells the truth about this 38:14.700 --> 38:19.400 They can't and like I said in the next episode on this epilogue 38:19.400 --> 38:23.760 I'm going to get into that conversation. I had with chat gpt and you'll see 38:24.360 --> 38:27.440 That it's so heavily curated and now you know why 38:27.980 --> 38:33.440 And honestly, I was really surprised when I woke up one morning and realized well, you know, I never really thought about that 38:33.440 --> 38:40.660 But that is a huge issue and I started noodling around in there because it's really a very subtle piece of propaganda 38:40.660 --> 38:44.960 But it's critical absolutely critical to the overall story 38:44.960 --> 38:50.280 They tell and anybody can look around and see the way the united states constitution has talked about 38:50.980 --> 38:52.320 Anybody any politician 38:53.200 --> 38:58.720 Anybody any celebrity they'll get onto twitter everybody talks about the freedom of liberty and all this shit that it created 38:58.720 --> 39:00.000 It didn't do any of those things 39:00.660 --> 39:03.660 It really literally didn't do any of it literally did the opposite 39:04.260 --> 39:06.020 It literally did the opposite 39:06.960 --> 39:10.440 Which is always the case. This is why I have that 179 club 39:10.660 --> 39:17.640 It's every single thing I ever look into it's always the same. It's 179 degrees off 39:18.240 --> 39:26.120 They're as close to 180 degrees as they ever can be on every one of these narratives because every single narrative is just alive because the entire system 39:26.120 --> 39:28.840 Is just such an incredible pack of lives 39:28.840 --> 39:35.560 It's just a way for a very small group of people to brainwash the mobs and then to run them like tax cattle 39:35.560 --> 39:39.920 So they can just do whatever the hell they want and anybody can look around and see that's the case 39:40.400 --> 39:42.540 Anybody can look around and see that's the case 39:43.740 --> 39:47.960 I've told people in again and again about the income tax that you're not even allowed to argue about it 39:47.960 --> 39:50.900 If you try and even bring up perfectly legitimate questions 39:50.900 --> 39:54.100 It's just immediately labeled as a frivolous claim 39:54.100 --> 39:57.960 The government will never have to respond to it in any kind of substantive fashion 39:57.960 --> 40:01.540 And you will be sanctioned and that's it the case will be dismissed 40:01.980 --> 40:04.760 And you'll be lucky not to have to pay some kind of fine 40:04.760 --> 40:06.980 And if you're a lawyer you're probably going to get uh 40:06.980 --> 40:12.080 Your license yanked if you file in federal court you won't be able to file in federal court anymore 40:12.460 --> 40:14.400 So don't tell me about the freedom machine 40:15.380 --> 40:16.340 It's not there 40:17.040 --> 40:17.960 it's not there 40:18.900 --> 40:19.260 so 40:20.060 --> 40:24.240 So I wanted to make that show and like I said, this is the epilogue. It's kind of part one 40:24.240 --> 40:27.160 I think it's probably going to have two parts. That's what it's going to do 40:27.160 --> 40:29.340 I think I'll be able to wrap it all up the next one 40:30.160 --> 40:34.460 And I wanted to bring this out and I hope people think about it and I would love to hear 40:34.760 --> 40:42.560 Some examples that actually do talk about the constitution in an honest fashion and don't conflate it with the bill of rights 40:43.120 --> 40:45.920 And don't conflate it with the declaration of independence 40:46.480 --> 40:53.080 I would love to because I haven't found any and when I started thinking about every single interaction 40:53.080 --> 40:55.860 I ever think about hearing and remembering 40:55.860 --> 40:58.260 It's always the same and honestly 40:58.260 --> 41:03.220 I used to fight against the idea that the constitution it didn't protect your rights 41:03.220 --> 41:06.680 It didn't do shit. Well, not because I wasn't thinking of only the constitution 41:06.680 --> 41:09.160 I was even conflating in my own mind 41:09.160 --> 41:14.280 But I was also going that next step because I know that the bill of rights also doesn't protect jack shit 41:14.280 --> 41:17.420 So in my mind, I was doing that. I wasn't distinguishing them 41:17.420 --> 41:23.940 But to me it's such a stronger argument to simply point out that the constitution 41:24.540 --> 41:31.200 Doesn't have the bill of rights. That's a separate document that was presented to protect people from the constitution 41:34.620 --> 41:35.120 Uh 41:36.120 --> 41:44.420 I'm telling you there's never any end. There's no bottom to the lies that the people live among. There's just none. So 41:45.220 --> 41:50.100 All right, well, that's all I wanted to say about that today because it will take much too long 41:50.100 --> 41:53.880 In order to get into any other topics on this and I will do that 41:53.880 --> 41:56.960 Like I said in the part two of this epilogue 41:57.540 --> 41:59.680 Or post script, whatever you want to call it 41:59.680 --> 42:04.920 So if you want to follow me, you can I'm legal man at us crime review on twitter if you didn't know I had twitter 42:05.520 --> 42:06.880 Thank you everybody in patreon 42:06.880 --> 42:12.080 I hope you've enjoyed this whole elucidation of the ratification. It really that whole thing 42:12.080 --> 42:16.860 I decided to do about the anti-federalist just ballooned into something that was 42:17.400 --> 42:22.620 Really quite surprising even to me and this was yet another surprise that came up 42:22.620 --> 42:26.160 That was just percolating in my mind for 42:26.160 --> 42:31.760 A couple of months and then just kind of clarified and came together and crystallized 42:32.320 --> 42:36.020 So thank you to everybody in patreon. I hope you enjoy the show 42:36.660 --> 42:41.580 Thank you for kicking a little bit of coin into the quash empire make it worth my time to even bother making it 42:41.580 --> 42:44.640 Otherwise, I would just be telling my friends about this stuff and that's it 42:47.480 --> 42:51.120 Oh and uh, hopefully people are still enjoying barnum world looks like 42:51.660 --> 42:56.460 We got some type of a hat tip from the 10 foil hat podcast last time 42:56.460 --> 42:59.140 I looked it was gathering about a thousand people a day again 42:59.140 --> 43:03.700 So, you know it just keeps percolating like that at some point 43:03.700 --> 43:08.260 It's going to have some kind of viral event. It will if it just keeps doing that kind of thing 43:08.260 --> 43:11.380 So I hope people enjoy that. I really enjoy that movie 43:11.380 --> 43:13.100 It's uh, it's a little hardcore 43:13.100 --> 43:18.700 But I think it was necessarily so and there's enough humor in there that I think it's fine 43:18.700 --> 43:25.700 I look at the comments periodically and the over overwhelming number of them are very very positive people enjoy the movie 43:25.700 --> 43:30.740 So thank you to everybody who made that possible. I hope you guys are glad you did ship some money and make that happen 43:31.200 --> 43:33.980 And beyond that, I don't have anything else. I'm gonna go ahead and wrap it up 43:33.980 --> 43:38.280 You guys have been a great audience as usual. Everybody. Have a nice night today wherever you are 43:38.760 --> 43:40.660 Take care.
