The Day the States Ceased to Exist

HOW can WE the People regain control of OUR right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?” WE have delved into what won’t work in order to find what will work.

Here is where we are so far:

The List (simplified)

8.   Establish a new service to restore OUR rights to “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” – WE are working on this Now!

Today: The Day the States United Ceased to Exist!

Previously WE saw HOW the Congress ceased to exist as a Constitutional Legislative Branch of government and became thereafter and to this present-day, an Executive Congress under the control of the Executive Branch and ultimately, the president. WE saw that both the Judiciary and Legislative Branches of government were in all actuality, under Martial Law. WE saw that despite any honorable or good intentions or that the Constitution was invoked, this was not constitutional, it was manipulation! How has this continued to this present-day and even more importantly, when did the states lose their sovereignty?

Since 1861, the country was under Martial Law. Two years later it still was and there were 3 dramatic events which started in 1862 and specifically in1863.

First, on September 22, 1862, Lincoln issued a presidential order which was the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. It declared the freedom of all slaves in any state of the Confederate States of America that did not return to Union control by January 1, 1863. The second presidential order was The Emancipation Proclamation issued

January 1, 1863, freed slaves from specific areas in 10 specific states. For our purposes here both of these orders will merge as on for the year 1863.

Second, was the Conscription Act passed by Congress and signed into law by President Lincoln, March 3, 1863. This law called for a national draft to be implemented, divided the country into districts and provided for the enforcement of the law by a provost provost-marshal (military control).

Conscription Act

SEC. 4.

And be it further enacted, That, for greater convenience in enrolling, calling out, and organizing the national forces, and for the arrest of deserters and spies of the enemy, the United States shall constitute one or more, as the President shall direct, and each congressional district of the respective states, as fixed by a law of the state next preceding the enrolment, shall constitute one: Provided, That in states which have not by their laws been divided into two or more congressional districts, the President of the United States shall divide the same into so many enrolment districts as he may deem fit and convenient.

SEC 8.

And be it further enacted, That in each of said districts there shall be a board of enrolment, to be composed of the provost-marshal, as president, and two other persons, to be appointed by the President of the United States, one of whom shall be a licensed and practicing physician and surgeon.

Conscription Act (March 3, 1863)

This was and in effect, martial law. Just a short time after the public became aware of the new law, riots broke out across the country. The worst riot occurred in New York City, NY and lasted for three days, destroying much of the city and cost the lives of many. Now not only was the Congress under Executive control by the president, so were the states and would include the southern states when under control of the union.

The third event of 1863, was when the term ‘Martial Law’ was literally put into force.

General Orders No. 100 : The Lieber Code

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF ARMIES OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE FIELD

Prepared by Francis Lieber, promulgated as General Orders No. 100 by President Lincoln, 24 April 1863.

Instructions for the Government of Armies of the United States in the Field, prepared by Francis Lieber, LL.D., Originally Issued as General Orders No. 100, Adjutant General’s Office, 1863, Washington 1898: Government Printing Office

SECTION I

Martial Law – Military jurisdiction – Military necessity – Retaliation

General Orders No. 100 : The Lieber Code

So Congress was under jurisdiction of the military, the judiciary and all of the states under the union in the north and any state in the south where union forces were able to subdue. The districts were already defined in the Conscription Act.

At the conclusion of the conflict and after the surrender of the south, Martial Law was lifted from all states except for Missouri. It was later lifted by military action sometime after the assassination of President Lincoln.

By proclamation (executive order) of the president in 1861, Congress became an Executive Congress, not a Constitutional Congress and it so remains to this present-day. The legal fiction states and legal fiction country from 1861 became a law passed by the Executive Congress and signed by the president in the Conscription Act of 1863, designating the former sovereign states as “districts.” These “districts” (areas in and including the several states), has never been rescinded or  cancelled by any president or Congress since, or overturned by any Supreme Court!

Theses districts (former sovereign states) are still,

under the jurisdiction of the Federal Government

This corrupt, corrupting and corruptible system took jurisdiction over the Legislative, Judiciary Branches of the Federal Government and of the several states, placing it into the Executive Branch and ultimately, the president. It would need only to take jurisdiction over WE the People.

Next Time: The Day WE the People, Ceased to Exist

I have promised and will keep my promise. I promise you that what WE can do about all of this and HOW to do it is coming! WE are in it, right now! The solution is on the way! It is really quite simple. It will not take forever or even a lifetime. It will only take a small amount of time and your direct participation. It may be difficult, but WE can do it IF, WE the People so will to do it. Do WE so will?

What may seem as insurmountable odds in regaining control of our liberties may appear hopeless, but there is an answer! Stay tuned here as we continue.

Check out the other blogs listed to the right. Come often. Bring others. Get involved. Do something. See:

How You Can Help

Ask not what your country can do for you

or what you can do for your country,

but what can WE the People do, for each other!”
