An earlier mini lesson established the office of President of the United States as an employment of the United States of America.  The Constitution reads: “When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside.”  In Article I Section 3 Clause 7, both Article I and Article II Impeachment is made non-judicial.

The Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 declared American independence from the English monarchy, which embodied all government authority in one person, the monarch.  By eliminating King George III, every American was declared equal to every other American, which, also, eliminated all judges.

The Constitution, in Article I, makes it clear that only those Americans who have been freed from a government may rule themselves.  The Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 did not bring Americans under governmental legislative power.

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 expressly created a temporary government for those Americans inhabiting the Northwest Territory, land belonging to the United States of America.  Article I of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 made that temporary government permanent.

Legislation enacted by the Congress of the United States, the Judiciary Act of 1789, made the federal courts “judicial courts” for the thirteen districts created by that act.  On the date of enactment, September 24, 1789 two States had not ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787, making the federal courts legislative and only for the land owned by the United States of America.     

The only duty imposed on the Chief Justice by the Constitution of September 17, 1787 is legislative and all other duties imposed on the Chief Justice and United States Supreme Court are legislative.

 This is not all the information you need to prove the Chief Justice, Associate Justices and federal court system is limited to government affairs and the lands owned by the United States of America, but it is a start.   To get the rest of this story, enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government, by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

Ten States and the District of Columbia recognize common law marriage, so 80% of the States refuse to recognize that a mature man and woman can live together as husband and wife without purchasing a marriage license.  

Only one of the six States that allows same sex marriage recognizes common law marriage.

Clearly, the over whelming majority of the States are into marriage for the money and the control the licensing of the most intimate of human relationships provides government.

Government marital money grubbing can be stopped dead in its tracks, if married people individually or as couples rescind the marriage license that was purchased from a State on the false representation that any marriage without the license would be invalid.

How much sense does it make to refuse government recognition to a husband and wife in a common law marriage, while such recognition is extended to a same sex couple?  It doesn’t make any sense, but government will not change its spots any more than a leopard can.

Government is a commercial enterprise, so if it can coerce the people to pay government for the “privilege” of enjoying human society’s most fundamental, it has become a “public trust” that needs busting.      

Trust busing is as easy as learning the ABC’s of law and government by enrolling in my Basic Course in Law and Government.  Licensing requires written laws and many regulations, which have to apply to one place and to the exclusion of all others.  Governments are limited to making laws for the lands owned by the United States of America.  You will learn how, when you enroll.  To enroll contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

When the Sheriff of Bristol County, Massachusetts established a program to charge prisoners for their custody, the inmates sued the Sheriff in, Richard Souza & others v. Sheriff of Bristol County, Supreme Judicial Court-10508 January 05, 2010.  In deciding against the Sheriff, the court referred to an old volume that described the character and origin of the office of sheriff.

The office of the sheriff is one of considerable antiquity. The origin and earliest duties of the office is set forth in L.E. Hitchcock, Powers and Duties of Sheriffs, Constables, Tax Collectors, and Other Officers in the New England States § 4 (2d ed.1904), as follows:

“The office of Sheriff dates back to the early days of English history. Indeed it is sometimes claimed that it became a part of the government of England from the Roman law. As the people of England came gradually under one government the territory became divided, more or less arbitrarily, into counties; over each of which was placed an Earl, or Alderman; and this Earl, or Alderman, was supposed to be the ruler-subject of course to the King-over his county. But this Earl, from the privileges which he possessed and the duties which he was under in reference to his attendance upon the King, gradually ceased to exercise his powers himself, and they were in time delegated to an under-officer, called, in the Roman law, Vicecomes; in the Saxon tongue, Shire-reeve; or in the more modern terms, Sheriff. At first this under-officer, or Sheriff, was to administer the affairs of the county as the representative of the Earl; but in time his duties became more defined, and seem to have been fourfold,-as a Judge, as a Keeper of the Peace, as a Ministerial Officer, and as the King’s Bailiff.

“First, as a Judge. He held court and determined causes between parties wherein the value in dispute was not more than forty shillings, and also heard certain other civil causes. He was also the Judge of certain elections, and of the qualifications of voters.

“Second, as the Keeper of the Peace. Both by common consent and by special commission he became the first man in the county, and superior to all others while he continued in office. He had authority to apprehend persons for the commission of crimes or for breach of the peace, and it was his duty also to defend the county against all enemies of the King, and for this purpose he had power to summon all the people of the county to attend him. This summons every person over fifteen years old and not a peer was bound to obey upon warning.

“Third, as a Ministerial Officer. He was bound to execute all processes issuing from the King’s courts of justice. In the commencement of civil proceedings he had power to serve the writ, arrest and take bail, and, when the cause came to trial, to summon and return the Jury, and after the judgment to see that the same was carried into effect. In criminal matters, he had authority to arrest and imprison, to return the Jury, to have custody of the delinquent, and to execute the sentence.

“Fourth, as the King’s Bailiff. He was required to see that the rights of the King were preserved in his county, or bailiwick.”

All the sheriff’s power’s vanished when King George III was no longer the government in America.

 The English common law didn’t vanish because the common law is firmly and permanently imbedded in the English language.

The word “Sheriff” survived the passing of the king although the sheriff was as much a part of the nobility as the king and queen. 

The  ghost of sheriffs past has been putting families out of their homes for far too long.  A little learning is all it takes to put the sheriff in his place and out of yours.  Enroll.  Become a serious Student of the law and government.  Ask me how at edrivera@edrivera.com

The common law is so named because it is so much a part of the community that is also part of the oral language.  Do not fall for the Wikipedia/government propaganda that the common law was made by judges.  English common law had a history heavily influenced by the English monarchy’s administration of all legal matters in England, which accounts for the misconception that judges royally appointed made the common law.  If an act is so detrimental to the wellbeing of a community, it will be designated a crime and it will be given a name.  The people made an act a crime by giving it a name.  Similarly, merchants created contract law by custom and usage of the English language to fashion valid agreements.

The common law crimes were named long before the first colonists brought the English language and English common law to America.  Common law has continued to be the unwritten law in America, even as the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 announced the dissolution of the Political Bands, which once connected America with Great Britain.

Modern legal education has bastardized the teaching of law into an examination of the quirks of the judge’s mind rather than the proper separation of law into what is written and unwritten law.  Any student of the law must decide at the onset of his or her education, if a full examination of written and unwritten law will be made or if the student will follow the herd and examine only the law made pursuant to the Constitution of the United States.

You can start your common law education by looking in the a’s of any dictionary to find “abduction,” “arson” and “assault.”  Exhausting the a’s  the student can go on to the b’s and then all the way to the end of the dictionary.  For the student in a hurry to learn the common law, I recommend the index to any book on the common law.

The dictionary approach to learning basic law teaches the student that law has a very sensible and universal basis and what it isn’t basic and sensible is written law.   I teach my Students how to confine written law to government and the land owned by the United States of America.  To become one of those Students, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

According to Glenn Beck, he never met a Founding Father he didn’t like.  Beck gushes over these men like school girls swoon over the latest music celebrity.  Beck may never end his love affair with these bewigged silk stockinged part time citizen statesmen. We, however, can take them exactly for what they were savvy men of business.

As leaders of American commerce, the so-called Founding Fathers hitched or rigged what passed for government in America to the rising star of American business enterprise, by taking the United States of America public.   The assets of the United States of America were incorporated in the United States Inc.  All went well until government started to be the rising star and that proved to be quite a drag, since it is a dead or dying star going nowhere but down.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 was hyped to Americans as a panacea for the kind of economic downturn we would call a recession.   Such recessions are part of the business cycle, but now they are the basis for governmental intervention.  Up to the time of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, the government of the United States of America was as close as any government has come to being libertarian then George Washington found himself leading the secret Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787.    

The official story of the historians who work at the Library built by Congress is that the Constitution of the United States replaced the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 on March 4, 1789, the date the Congress of the United States first convened.  No other historian disagrees with the historians at the Library of Congress.  No attorney I know has ever read the Articles of Confederation, so they would not know why the Articles of Confederation were replaced and not repealed.

The hype has always been that the Articles of Confederation were repealed, but that lie had to be modified because the Articles are still part of the four Organic Laws.  The Articles formed a Confederacy of sovereign, free and independent States so the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 wouldn’t do for the United States, which were not sovereign, free or independent. 

The Articles of Confederation were replaced by the Constitution of the United States, because the Union of United States is much less than the United States of America and that’s not hype. 

Veneration of the Founding Fathers violates the principle of not elevating men above law.  With the Founding Fathers out of the way of our research and investigation, we can reconstruct the crime scene, when the smartest men in the Constitutional Convention ended freedom in America.   Glenn Beck can’t teach you what he doesn’t know.  This is the only place in the world where you can learn  the truth about law and government came to be what they are.  To become a Student contact me, for a good laugh watch or listen to Glenn Beck.

No matter what the English common law might be in Great Britain, what it becomes in America, after the British lose the American Revolution, is completely told in the English language.

Common law crimes, for instance, like statutory crimes, consist of elements each of which must be proven in any prosecution.   In the common law, the definition of the word that describes the crime identifies the elements that constitute that common law offense.     Two kinds of thefts, robbery and embezzlement are easily distinguished by consulting a dictionary.  Did the accused use a pen to commit an embezzlement or a robbery?  How difficult will it be for the new law student to remember robbery involves force or fear?

The English common law in America becomes even more common after Americans get rid of King George III.  While he was king, George III controlled by his appointment of a Chancellor to do equity.  No king no equity.

American English common law didn’t have a chance to take hold before George Washington took over law and government on the strength of his verbal promise to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Law is complex and government remains broken, because most of us are not aware of the fraud committed by the so-called Founding Fathers.  We don’t have to dig deep to find the deception it is right where true masters of deceit would leave it, where they could use it if the   need arose.

The English common law is as common as the language we all use to communicate.  What is not common is a necessity for the truth.   If George Washington never told a lie, he seldom told the truth. He beat the British with deception and he ruled America the same way.

A student sent me a copy a letter he received from the Commonwealth of Virginia, Department of Taxation that had this caption.

As a new Student, he is not aware of the many nuances of a State government based on the Constitution of the United States and government taxation system based on citizen employees and employers operating on land owned by the United States of America.

When taxes were being collected in Colonial America, the tax collector had the authority of the king of England to put Americans on notice that a tax was due and owing and if it went unpaid a tax lien would be placed on that American’s property.  The king’s tax collector had the power and authority to demand the tax be paid.

This written notice and demand conveys no authority.   Because the king’s man could demand payment, payment wasn’t voluntary and the tax could be paid under protest.  The tax protest would get a real regal hearing.  Virginia sends a copy of the notice and demand to anyone who owes the Student money, so the bank, credit union or employer voluntarily pays.

Taxation is part of the Advanced Course, so you will have to take the Basic Course in Law and Government to become a legal genius, so you can learn everything there is to know about taxation.  To enroll contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The delegates to the May 25, 1787 Constitutional Convention were able to concoct a Constitution within a Constitution with such skill that their work would continue to deceive for more than two centuries and do so with such finesse as to be hailed as the greatest document of its kind.   The Framers of the Constitution were not taught law as it is taught in today’s law schools they learned law the old fashioned way they read the king’s law written in the king’s English and you can learn law the same way.

You can learn to think like the original Framers of the Constitution by unraveling with me and first hand their diabolical handiwork known worldwide as the Constitution of the United States.  If you will continue to read these Posts and the four Organic Laws of the United States of America: Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and Constitution of September 17, 1787, you will ready to enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government and get to the truth about both these subjects sooner than you thought possible.

Laws are of value only when they are true and correct for their purpose.   All written laws in America are known to be based on the authority of the Constitution of the United States as the supreme law of the land.   These Posts have shown the Constitution of September 17, 1787 to have been ratified and established between those States so ratifying, however, no evidence of an adoption of that Constitution by the government of the Confederacy exists.  Instead, the Constitution of the United States was adopted by George Washington, the first person elected President of the United States of America, when he took the oral oath of Office of President of the United States.

Washington’s adoption of the Constitution of the United States, by verbal oath, refers not to the written Constitution, but to the inventory of land assets assigned to the Confederacy, the United States of America, and his acknowledgment to be bound by the explicit employment contract contained within the Constitution of September 17, 1787 that was created when nine States ratified that Constitution.

You cannot possibly learn correct written law in any conventional way with every law school in the country teaching the Constitution is the supreme law of all the lands.  Read my Posts and prove to yourself that the Constitution of the United States is only the supreme law of the land owned by the United States of America then contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com to enroll as one of my Students.

Government doesn’t work because it had to be broken to even have a beginning.  George Washington did it, he broke it when he made an oral promise to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution of the United States.  The Constitution of the United States wasn’t a written plan intended to provide the solution to the grave problems of the day it was the inventory of the assets owned by the United States of America, the Confederacy established by the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  He was supposed to sign his name to a written agreement “to support this Constitution,” a written constitution for the United States of America.   It was like Lebron James promising on ESPN to play for the Miami Heat, but refusing to sign a player contract.  George Washington was such a star he actually did it and no one noticed.

If you will take out a one dollar bill, I will show you how Washington busted the government of the United States of America.  Those words: “United States of America” appear on the front and back of the dollar bill.  On the front of the dollar bill above United States of America the words “Federal Reserve Note” appears in capital letters.  Those United States of America are the United States of the Confederacy, the United States of America.  They are intact and so is the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

The United States of America and the word Federal in Federal Reserve Note refer to the Confederacy established by the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  George Washington was elected President of the United States of America on February 4, 1789 the Office which is vested with the executive power, but no power to tax or make laws.

This executive power did give the President of the United States of America the power to appoint both officers and employees of the United States of America.  For over 200 years everyone has believed the office of President of the United States of America and President of the United States were the same office.  I discovered that the President of the United States of America has executive power derived from the Articles of Confederation and not the Constitution of the United States.  Using this power, George Washington appointed himself President of the United States.

Close examination of the written constitution reveals that not only is the Office of President of the United States appointed there are no qualifications to be met nor is there a term set for that Office.  A President of the United States that is appointed with the advice and consent of the Senate and who is in office for no set time is an employee of the United States of America.

No one has found George Washington’s signature on any oath to either the Office of President of the United States of America or the Office of President of the United States.  No American President has ever signed any oath to be President of the United States of America or President of the United States.  Two signatures can be found on the right and left of Washington’s portrait: that of a Treasurer of the United States and that of a Secretary of the Treasury.  These two signatures have no value because the absence of a President’s signature to an oath proves the Federal Reserve Note is limited to the United States, the territory owned by the United States of America.

George Washington was elected President of the United States of America, which gave him all the executive power of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which was very limited and extended only to the lands owned by the United States of America.  By appointing himself President of the United States, Washington became America’s first benevolent dictator, who as an employee of the Confederacy could collect its taxes and execute its laws even outside federal territory, if he could get away with it.

Washington and the Founding Fathers placed America under military house arrest, when he was able to take the oral oath of Office of President of the United States without raising any suspicions as to his real government take over motives.  Washington’s command of the 1787 Constitutional Convention that produced the written Constitution for the United States of America convinced everyone that the Constitution that secret meeting had produced had now replaced the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  Washington, also, wanted everyone to think he had finally gotten his revenge for his grievances against the Articles of Confederation and its Continental Congress during the American Revolution.

Taking control of government power by oral oath is the way of tyrants and monarchs.  There may be a script, as there is in Article II Section 1 Clause 8, but there is never a signature to hold the autocrat to account and so it has been with every American President after George Washington.        

Forget about Barack Hussein Obama’s foreign birth and concentrate on just the words that are in the Constitution.  What makes a person eligible to the Office of President keeps that Office from being filled until after July 4, 1790.  George Washington was elected, inaugurated and set up the Department of the Treasury all in 1789.  Washington never filled the Office of President and neither has any other person elected President of the United States of America or President of the United States.

Here in Indiana starting today if you want to purchase Tobacco, Beer, Liquor and Wine products you have to show an ID no matter what your age.  If your ID is expired (Driver License) you will be refused the purchase, if no ID no purchase.  Store clerks have now become STATE of INDIANA License enforcers.

 The lesson of taxation in America is that no matter how little it is it will be increased until it is too much. The second law enacted by the First Congress on July 4, 1789 was “An Act for laying a Duty on Goods, Wares, and Merchandise imported into the United States.”  The first internal excise tax was a tax on the distillation of alcohol on March 3, 1791, which led to the famous Whiskey Rebellion. Nowhere in the Whiskey Tax was the United States mentioned.

 In both taxes, the “United States” was the land owned by the United States of America. Both taxes were lawful, because an owner of land should and does have absolute control over that property, however, no owner not even the federal government should be able to control the property of another.  Of course, this is exactly how all American governments have operated since April 30, 1789.  George Washington put down the Rebellion using 13,000 troops months after Congress enacted the carriage tax, which resulted in the famous Supreme Court case, Hylton v. United States 3 Dallas171 (1796).

All the taxes paid in Indiana are imposed by law within the “United States.”  One of the unintended consequences of independence is the freedom from taxation for those who would not be citizens.  Taxes are imposed on the citizens of the United States retailing tobacco, beer, liquor and wine within the State of Indiana.  Retailers collect the excise tax on the making of a sales transaction within the State of Indiana from the customer.

Applications for retail sellers permits expressly state that the applicant seeks a license for sales within the State of Indiana.  Widespread ignorance and incompetence within the legal profession and public law enforcement has extended the territorial boundaries way beyond what is the United States in Indiana.  Requiring customers to have some kind of State license in order to make a purchase is a violation of Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, which is still binding on the States.  A free inhabitant requires no identification outside of the United States, the land owned by and subject to the jurisdiction of the United States of America.    

The State of Indiana’s law requiring customers of certain products to show proper ID will probably be compared to the Nuremberg Laws enacted by the Nazis. To learn if that is true, students of these Posts are invited to enroll in my Basic Course in Law and Government, the only course of its kind.  Taking this Course is the only way to find out how taxation grew from nothing to the economy killing behemoth it is today.  Enrollment information is available at edrivera@edrivera.com
