The Constitution is Dead. The Constitution is Dead. We are Giving away $20,000 for the Creation of a New one.

 


My parents' 9/11 was November 23, 1963. Ten years later, I was born. But I only realized recently that I never lived in an constitutional Republic.


I have only ever known a Cryptocracy, a shadow government.


The Constitution also died the day that President John F. Kennedy assassinated. As more and more information is revealed in the declassified documents, we begin to see the outline of a cabal that has enormous power outside of the Constitution. It seems that they have been ruling for some time.


As any mafia, clandestine forces pull the strings. They also eliminate those who challenge them. Even if you doubt that Deep State actors have a firm grip on the government, a permanent political bureau has already done enough to undermine the republic.


It's time for a new constitution. More on this topic later. )


Are you Dead or Dying


I will be arguing with my interlocutors about the points above. The Constitution will not be dead, they'll tell you. Just one more vote will be needed to elect a new captain who can right the ship. Maybe they will agree that Constitution has died, but at a different point in time. It doesn't matter. The Patriot Act or the Global War on Terror could have killed the Constitution. Perhaps the New Deal or World War II killed the Constitution, creating a welfare state fueled by debt.


It could take a long time to die, similar to cancer. If the Constitution reaches Stage IV, then the Republic will also be dead.


Few can argue about the metaphors of scribbles in parchment because America's Great Charter lives and is well. FBI agents routinely interfere with elections and imprison political opponents without due process or proof. They also censor citizens. National debt is at record highs. The banks are on the brink of failure. Hyperinflation is a threat News.


Even if the CIA did not assassinate JFK and the National Security State has unlimited power, he may still shake his fist at Washington, expecting congressional hearings will bring accountability.


Dead Souls and Children's Corpses


Constitutions on paper are not constitutional documents. The soul of the people is what gives them life.

If people revere our law, our operating system will work. If enough people, whether those in power or locked into the conflict machine as partisans are unwilling to see that foundation of law as an obstacle to overcome then we've reached a critical number of dead souls. We need to be separate from these people.


Dead souls are those who give up their founding ideals because of hatred, fear or political expediency. Sam Harris, a public intellectual, is a good example of such a dead soul.


Harris: "Hunter Biden could literally have the bodies of children in the basement at that time, and I wouldn't have cared," referring to Twitter and the FBI suppressing the information regarding the laptop.


Harris' honesty was admirable, as he revealed more information than any other media outlet had done up until that time, and captured the feelings of millions.


Harris's actions are not unique. The other half of the nation hated the politician to the point that the end justified the means. The former president is not my favorite, but thinking that any means necessary are acceptable to a nation's soul can be deadly. You're making a Djinn happy if you are willing to ignore the Constitution or the rule of law out of hatred, or to play partisan games. The Djinn might grant you your wish but in doing so, he will destroy the liberal order.

Sunak Meloni: Understanding their chemistry

  When Rishi Sunak first met his Italian counterpart, Giorgia Meloni, on the sidelines of Cop27 in Egypt, there was talk of an instant "chemistry". And, judging from the latest pictures in Vilnius, the spark has not faded. Last night, the pair was spotted giggling over some seemingly hilarious content on Meloni's phone, as they made their way to dinner at the NATO summit in Lithuania. While some deem Italy's controversial leader to be an unsavory company, it seems she is fast becoming Sunak's bestie. Witness the equally chummy snaps of them chuckling together at the G7 in Japan or the two sharing a tender moment on the steps of Number 10. Admittedly, when it comes to photographs of world leaders, looks can be deceiving. Behind the friendly handshakes and posed back pats often lie fraught bilateral tensions. Yet warm moments between Sunak and Meloni somehow appear more genuine. Indeed, Sunak's awkward body language seems to instantly dissolve in the presence of...

Artificially Stimulated Stupidity

  Artificial Intelligence is still a hot topic. After a decade of hype, the launch of ChatGPT has finally given it some credence. ASS (or Artificially Stimulated stupidity, pronounced "A Ess" of course) is what people should focus on. ASS may have more of an impact on AI than its inherent qualities if it overtakes the human race, as many fear. ASS, while stupidity may be as old as humanity itself and as pervasive, is a relatively new phenomenon. Since the dawn of humanity, humans have tried to combat their innate stupidity through training and education. They also used relatively reliable ways of creating and distributing new information. All have recently broken down, and are still unreformed despite being easily fixable. These breakdowns encourage human stupidity artificially by making rational discussion and analysis more difficult. Government education At this point, almost all formal education in the US, K-PhD, is government-controlled, even when technically privately pr...

French letter: watching France tear apart while I lay in pain

  Covid late-onset is the exact experience that you'd expect. Covid is a miserable experience. It causes a hacking cough and a headache. You feel short of breath. Your limbs are numb. And you're tired. It didn't appear to be fatal, at least not for me or my wife. Louisa was given the go-ahead this morning, and I hope to be able to do the same tomorrow. This means that we might just make it out to the pub Sunday. Paris is to blame, I'm sure. Louisa was in Montparnasse for an art event and she must have caught the illness either on her way home or from the crowd of art lovers. She was sick within two days after her return and thoughtfully shared the illness with me in order to avoid missing market day. We were lucky to have done our shopping the day after she returned. We found a dense loaf of bread that lasted for several days. Our neighbour Mael also left us goat's-milk and eggs on the terrace steps. What about France's near collapse into chaos and the abyss, th...
