I find it interesting that a Federal Judge didn’t overrule the President by proclaiming that spending must first be approved by Congress.
I guess Presidents were allowed to lead back then.
The conspiracy to kill Lincoln was planned out in Canada. The Federal government could never connect it to Jefferson Davis or any Confederate leader.
Killing Lincoln was probably a deep state hit. He won the war but refused to borrow money from the bankers — printed his own money from the Treasury — and that could not be allowed to stand.
Having the Treasury print and control the money supply is mandated by the Constitution and is the only sensible way to do it, rather than having the Federal Reserve do it and plague the nation with debt.
If all these trillions of dollars had been printed up by the Treasury today, rather than the Fed, we would not have the incredible interest payments to make, which is insanity and totally corrupt.
