They do not exist in the case law, because if they've ever been used the government dropped the case to avoid a ruling.

One of the major causes of tyranny is the Court's continuing failure to distinguish between things which are legitimate, and things that cannot be shown to be illegitimate. This distinction is important, since the benefits of the doubt, which should be afforded to those who endeavor in good faith to act legitimately, should not be extended to those who deliberately act in ways whose legitimacy is at best murky.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. It's taken two full years for someone to point this out since my analysis of the Roberts decision.

The judiciary is playing a very deceitful game in America. They play all sorts of jurisdictional games with the citizens of this country, not just to throw people into jail who they actually have no authority over, but also to allow themselves to not admit what they are doing to the people to whom they are doing it.

It's a bad, bad situation. Since I've discovered it, I've endeavoured to expose its existence as carefully as I can so people can understand the reality of the problem. Which, of course, has meant dealing with a lot of shill spit. Nevertheless, it had to be done.

But there's nothing I can do about indifference, or worse, cowardice. I suppose in the great scheme of things, I've spoken the truth about the lie, and I'm glad for it. But I weep for an America which turns its back on the very mechanism of its enslavement. Such actions, historically, attract the wrath of God. And that doesn't mean terrorism. Far worse than terrorism is the loss of the American spirit, the pursuit of goodness, replaced by mocking cynicism and worldly materialism. There's no need for terrorists when Americans simply give up on the essential goodness of their country's founding ideals.

Americans have been given a special dispensation apart from all the other countries of the world - a government under the God-given rights of the People. To turn our backs on that staggeringly valuable gift is a sin so vast I literally don't know what God's response will be, except it won't be good. And it will be beyond the petty efforts of any person or group. Nobody believes in Divine Intervention anymore, so it must not be true... except AFAIK God doesn't give a damn about Facebook.
