If you believe Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, you will never understand the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  The Chief Justice said, “We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution.”

The Chief Justice is not a judge he is not even a judicial officer.  Judges and judicial power are located in Article III of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  The Chief Justice is found in Article I which imposes his only duty—to preside at the impeachment of the President of the United States for which no grounds need be stated.  Article II Section 4 requires more to impeach an elected President: “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

Recognition of the differences between an Article I President of the United States and an Article II President of the United States of America with the executive power is an important attribute of the constitutional law thinker.  The common constitutional scholar gets his ideas from the judiciary who combine the President of the United States of America and President of the United States into one Twelfth Amendment President.  The judiciary and every dictator, since George Washington successfully combined the head of state with the head of the government, have done more to retard creative thinking than all television programs.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 is a Noah’s Ark of government creatures in twos and threes.  Sorting out the Citizens of the United States, the Presidents, the Chief Justice and the judges will sharpen the mind, so it can think about law and government without confusion.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 is not what it seems.  It is true that the first article appears to create a legislature, the second article appears to create in executive and the third article appears to create a judiciary. However, those three purported branches of government apply only to the territory owned by the United States of America. How can this be proven? The proof is in the organic laws of the United States of America.

The organic laws: the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and the Constitution of September 17, 1787 are the foundational laws for all the written laws in the United States of America. But, here’s the catch those written laws are limited to what the United States of America owns.

 The Declaration of Independence stated the reasons Americans had to declare themselves freed from the government of the King of England, George III.  The Articles of Confederation formed the original 13 colonies into States of the United States of America, a Confederacy. The Northwest Ordinance created a temporary government for the Northwest Territory, which was obtained by the United States of America as a result of the war of revolution. The Constitution modified the Articles of Confederation to permit the United States in Congress assembled to operate as a Senate over the newly won Northwest territory. That’s right the Constitution did not repeal the articles of Confederation, the delegates to the May 25, 1787 Constitutional Convention were there pursuant to a resolution of the Confederation Congress.

The resolution of    February 21, 1787 made by the Confederation Congress called for the revision of the Articles of Confederation for the purpose of making government more efficient, of course, what has been forgotten is that it is the government of the Northwest Territory which was to be made more efficient. To make that government more efficient the office of President of the United States of America was officially created in article 2 section 1 clause 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, which is one of  the first “a’s” you will learn.  “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows. “The executive power is vested in a President of the United States of America and not a President of the United States.

The Office of President of the United States is burdened with two official duties: if he approves a bill enacted by the House of Representatives and the Senate, “he shall sign it,” if he objects to a bill passed by Congress, “he shall return it, with his objections to that House in which it shall have originated.”  The President of the United States is, thus, limited to objecting or approving legislation enacted by Congress. The president of the United States is, therefore, an employee.  A President of the United States of America is the real executive officer of the United States of America. George Washington merely combined the two offices of President of the United States of America and President of the United States by being elected to the former and taking the oath of office to the latter.

Learning the Constitution of September 17, 1787 can be as easy as learning the alphabet and that “a” is for President of the United States of America not President of the United States.  A President of the United States of America is the highest political office and it is still elected by the States.  George Washington proved that anybody could be President of the United States, if the person elected President of the United States of America just stepped forward and took this oath: “I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” “So help me God.”

This lesson brought to you by the letter “A” opens up the Constitution for a critical examination never before imagined.

Traffic court is part of a much larger for profit dispute resolution organization called the “United States judicial system” headed by a person called the Chief Justice of the United States.  John Roberts is the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, which is the highest court of appeal in the United States.

 

The “United States” and the “United States of America” are to be distinguished, as they are in the third Organic Law, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787: “It is hereby ordained and declared by the authority aforesaid, That the following articles shall be considered as articles of compact between the original States and the people and States in the said territory and forever remain unalterable, unless by common consent, to wit:“  The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 is a compact between the United States of America and “the people and States in the said territory,” which will become the “We the People of  the United States” in the Preamble to “this Constitution for the United States of America.”   

 

“This Constitution for the United States of America” refers to the written document which became binding on all the States of the Confederacy, the United States of America, as of May 29, 1790.  However, none of  the “Senators and Representatives” of Congress, “Members of  the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of  the United States and of  the several States” were ever bound by the Article VI “Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution.”   Because the Senators and Representatives elected after New Hampshire became the ninth State to ratify “this Constitution” were not bound “to support this Constitution,” the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 became the only Organic Law by which they could function as a government body.

 

The name of that government body is found in the enactment clause which first appeared in statute I, Chapter 1, on June 1, 1789 in “An Act to regulate the Time and Manner of administering certain Oaths.”  Section 101 of  Title 1 United States Code, “The enacting clause of  all Acts of  Congress shall be in the following form: ‘Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of  the United States of America in Congress assembled,’”  proves the ratification of the  Constitution of September 17, 1787 by nine of  the States of  the first Union together with  the failure of  the newly elected officers to adopt that Constitution  vested “All legislative Powers herein granted”  in a “Senate and House of Representatives of  the United States of America in Congress assembled.   The failure of  the elected officers to take and be bound by the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution” required the new oath enacted by the new Senate and House of Representatives of  the United States of America in Congress assembled.     

 

 What do these facts about the Constitution of September 17, 1787 and the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 have to do with you beating a traffic ticket?  They prove the “United States” is a place or a collection of federal enclaves administered by a President of the United States.  Before the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution of September 17, 1787, there was no provision for the selection of the President of the United States, so George Washington by virtue of his election to the office of President of the United States of America on April 6, 1789 appointed himself to that office on April 30, 1789. Combining the two offices of President of the United States of America and President of the United States in one person made it appear as if the United States and the United States of America were one and the same.  The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 was an interim compact with the United States of the Northwest Territory, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota and the United States of America under the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The stated purpose of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 was to revise the Articles of Confederation to permit the formation of another Union, a Union of States without sovereignty, freedom and independence, unfortunately, this new Union immediately began to subsume the first Union as soon as George Washington took the oral oath of office of President of the United States.

 

How does the Chief Justice of the United States help you beat your traffic ticket?   Combining the two offices: President of the United States of America and President of the United States creates a kind of dictatorship over the federal States, the United States.  To conceal this dictatorship, the new Congress and the President of the United States create by legislation a Supreme Court that mimics the “one supreme court” of Article III.  The Supreme Court of the United States is without judicial power because it is constituted of existing non-judicial offices using legislative power.  The Chief Justice is a demonstrably a non-judicial officer by virtue of the Constitution’s imposition of the legislative duty of presiding at the impeachment of the President of the United States.                 

 

Traffic laws, courts and judges are all produced by State legislation which directly relies on the sharing of   legislative power conferred on the new Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled.  Traffic laws apply in the United States and the jurisdiction of courts and traffic judges is limited to the federal territory within the county where the alleged violation occurred.  The secret connection between the Constitution of the United States and State constitution must be discovered before you can successfully beat your traffic ticket.  Enrolling in my Basic Course in Law and Government can help.  To learn how you can enroll for $50 contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

What is the jurisdiction of   the Constitution of the United States?  Jurisdiction is power and to determine the power of the Constitution over any case we must examine that document beginning with the first three articles, where it is claimed the three government powers are to be found.

Article I of “this Constitution:”  “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”  This first sentence of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 very likely never accurately described any legislation which was produced by “a Senate and House of Representatives.”   Federal legislation has from the beginning been produced not by a Congress of the United States, but by “the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,” as currently required by Section 101 of Title 1 United States Code.    

Article II of “this Constitution:” “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows.”  The President of the United States of America is a match with the Section 101 Enacting clause, but it    is the President of the United States not the President of the United States of America who signs or objects to Bills.

Article III of  “this Constitution:” “The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.“   This third article is congruent with Article I Section 1, as it is presently applied, only if legislation being produced by “the Senate and House of Representatives of  the United States of America  in Congress assembled,” is applicable only to territory and property owned by the United States of America.

Article IV Section 3 Clause 2 of  “this Constitution:”  “The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State.”   This is it this is the only jurisdiction that might permit a government to exercise power over a person like you, provided you are a citizen of the United States and are on its territory.

I got this e-mail from a Student.  My response appears below his e-mail:

 “These questions may be too simple.  However, what meaning does the term BAR have in relation to an attorney or a lawyer?  What does it mean when someone says they have their BAR card?  There seems to be much confusion out there, and I have yet, to find the truth for this term.  I was told years ago
that it stood for British Attorney Registry.  Are US Attorneys registered with the Queen?”

I was a member of the California State Bar from June 2, 1972 until August 6, 2006, when I was disbarred from appearing before the State of California Supreme Court.  I had never appeared before that court in the three decades I was licensed to be an Attorney and Counselor at Law #52737.  I became a dues paying member of  the State Bar of  California by becoming a member of  the bar of  that Supreme Court, so to be disbarred I had to be thrown out of that court in order to be disbarred.  If all this sounds like a bunch of lawyer’s tricks, you are catching on to the legal business in America.

Law in America is a fantasy.  What institution determines what the law is in America?  The United States Supreme Court is supposed to be the court of last resort, the court that is the last say in what the law is, however, the only constitutional duty of the Chief Justice is to preside at the impeachment of the President of the United States.  Impeachment is defined in the Constitution as a non-judicial process in Article I Section 3 Clause 7: “Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to law.”  Article I impeachment is a legislative process, where the party is charged by the House of Representatives and tried by the Senate.

The United States Supreme Court is a legislative court, which was created on September 24, 1789 in the Judiciary Act of 1789.  The Offices of Chief Justice and Associate Justices were created a day before the Supreme Court making it truly a court of men and not laws.

When I got started in the legal business, there were no Bar Cards.  Back in our offices we had Bar Admission Certificates framed for display.  Much later we had paper Bar Cards and then plastic.  I never registered with the Brits and I don’t think the Queen would want anything to do with American law or its lawyers.

The British have dealt with a bar in their own way.  Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote:

CROSSING THE BAR

Sunset and evening star,

    And one clear call for me!

And may there be no moaning of the bar,

    When I put out to sea.

 

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,

    Too full for sound and foam,

When that which drew from out the boundless deep

    Turns again home!

 

Twilight and evening bell,

    And after that the dark!

And may there be no sadness of farewell,

    When I embark;

 

For though from out our bourn of Time and Place

    The flood may bear me far,

I hope to see my Pilot face to face

    When I have crost the bar.

I crossed the Bar when I started telling the truth about law and government in California.   Telling the truth about law and government got me disbarred.  Learning the truth about the law and government can get you free.  It costs nothing to get the Organic Laws of the United States of America and information about becoming my Student.  Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com.

Article I Section 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 creates a new Congress:  “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”   The “legislative Powers” which can be granted by the first nine States to ratify the Constitution of September 17, 1787 are the same as are found in Article IX and X of  the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The Congress under the Articles of Confederation legislated when the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 was enacted.  It was those “legislative Powers” which were granted in Article I Section 1, upon the ratification of nine States of the first Union.

The States of the perpetual Union created by the full ratification of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787, because they were in on the plot to create a credible basis for a grant of legislative power over the American people.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 revised the Articles of Confederation by creating a new Congress made up of the Delegates from the States, who were now called Senators and two kinds of Representatives.  The States of the Northwest Territory, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota would elect and send Representatives who could debate, but who could not vote on legislation which applied only to the territory owned by the United States of America.  Representatives from the perpetual Union, the United States of America, were misnamed, because they did not represent the population to which they were apportioned.   These Representatives, however, could vote on the legislation which applied only to those on federal territory.  

Article II Section 1 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 vests the executive power of the United States of America in a President of the United States of America:  “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows”

Article III courts exercising the judicial power of the United States of America are never ordained and established, because the Constitution of September 17, 1787 is never adopted, instead, the Congress of the United States of America creates legislative courts limited to the territory owned by and subject to the jurisdiction of the United States of America.

The Supreme Court which has been meeting on the first Monday in October is not the “one supreme Court” of Article III of the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  The Supreme Court that meets today was not ordained and established by “the Congress,” using the judicial power of the United States of America in Article III, it is the Supreme Court created by the legislative act of “a Congress of the United States,” the Judiciary Act of 1789, which was created to govern the territory and other property belonging to and subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.  The “People of the United States,” who in the Preamble, claim to “ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America,” in order to “establish Justice,” do so only in a mythical democracy, because the Preamble is not officially part of the Constitution for the United States of America.   

There are two kinds of United States of America.  The first is the geographical space on planet Earth, which was freed from British rule.  The second is the Confederacy which was initiated shortly after the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 in a document called the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The political version of the United States of America would not exist if the Articles of Confederation had not been drafted on November 15, 1777 and ratified by all thirteen original States by March 1, 1781.  When Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation, those Articles and the Union they formed, became permanent and perpetual, so  it would take the unanimous agreement of all the member States to dissolve the Union of the United States of America.

The Union created by the third and fourth Organic Laws of the United States of America is not perpetual.   The only assertion of perpetuity is found in Article IV of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787: “The said territory, and the States which may be formed therein, shall forever remain a part of this Confederacy of the United States of America, subject to the Articles of Confederation.”

The third Organic Law of the United States of America, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, provides for a temporary government which includes the appointment of three judges, who shall serve “during good behavior,” and reside within the district.  These judges will become the District Judges of Section 3 of the Judiciary Act of 1789.  The fourth Organic Law of the United States of America was cleverly written to appear permanent and made to look like a replacement for the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. 

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 is more than a Constitution of the United States it is a Constitution for the United States of America.  Article I of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 provides for an administrator called the President of the United States, an adjudicator, called the Chief Justice and a law making body called “a Congress of the United States which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”

The “judicial Power of the United States” in Article III of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 refers to the judicial Power of the United States of America under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 not the Constitution of the United States.   

This Congress of the United States creates the “First Monday in October” Supreme Court by bestowing its legislative power upon and around the Chief Justice, whose only duty is to preside at the impeachment of the President of the United States.  Prior to Judiciary Act of 1789, the Congress of the United States established by legislation, 1Stat73, different levels of  compensation for the Chief Justice, justices of the Supreme Court and district Judges confirming their status as  employees.

Today, the higher compensation received by the Chief Justice over that of the Justices continues to mark his authority and power over a legislative conflict resolution system and not a judicial system.  District Judges continue to be federal employees.  Today’s Supreme Court has no judicial power.  All the power of the United States Supreme Court and the inferior courts is obtained through the legislative power granted by the States of the United States of America and is limited to the territory owned by and subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

Contrary to popular opinion, the United States is a country of men and not a country of laws.  The Constitution of the United States has not been adopted, hence, all government power must be traced back to the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, so government power is derived from the Articles of Confederation or the proprietary power over federal territory. 

Nothing in government and written law is what you think it is, if you want to know the truth about both, take advantage of the offer I have made in my July 7, 2011 Post

The magic words:  “do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America,” explain how the democracy, called the United States, began and why the Supreme Court of the United States decides cases the way it does.

The people of the United States of America, unlike “the People of the United States,” are guaranteed the right to be free inhabitants and, thereby, the right to all the privileges and immunities of citizens of the several States, without being citizens.  The people of the United States must, however,”ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America,” in order to enjoy, “Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare.”  What is guaranteed by Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 to even those of the United States of America, who refuse citizenship, can only be obtained by the “People of the United States,” by a written Constitution, which must be ordained and established, before they enjoy basic rights.

The judicial power of the United States of America, also, can only be vested in judicial courts, if the Congress first ordains and establishes such courts as judicial courts.  Before the Congress can “ordain and establish “one supreme Court,” and any number of  inferior courts with judicial power, Congress must first adopt “this Constitution,” as its own by being bound by the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution.”

No President and no member of Congress have ever been bound by the only Constitutional oath required by the Constitution of September 17, 1787, the Article VI oath “to support this Constitution.”  Nothing prevents the Congress of  the United States of America, which has been created by the ratification of  the Constitution of September 17, 1787 by nine States, from creating by legislative power  an administration of  its territory and other property around the legislative Office of  President of the United States.

The Constitution of the United States was created by Masonry magic, which has only been explained by my Basic Course in Law and Government.  You may start the course by following the instructions in the Offer made in the July 7, 2011 Post on this website.

Two hundred and twenty-two years ago, today the Judiciary Act of 1789, was signed by George Washington, as President of the United States to show he approved it in accordance with Article I Section 7 Clause 2 of the Constitution of the United States.   The Constitution of the United States imposes only two duties on the President of the United States: to sign, if the President of the United States approves a Bill, or to make his objections on a Bill, if he does not approve.  As the Congress of the United States of the United States of America cannot make laws for the States of the Confederacy, the United States of America, Congress established the Supreme Court of the United States for the federal territory owned by and subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

Immediately after the President of the United States signed the Judiciary Act of 1789, George Washington, as President of the United States of America beginning on April 6, 1789, appointed the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court.   Thus, began the corruption of the entire American judiciary.  The corruption of the American judiciary was necessary to keep secret the joining of the two Offices, which create a tyrannical dictatorship.   

Washington was the first President of  the United States of America to be elected by the Presidential Electors described in Article II Section 1 Clause 2, but he would never  take an Article VI oath “to support this Constitution” meaning the Constitution, which could establish an independent federal judiciary, if it were ever adopted by binding oaths.  Washington took a non-binding oral oath to obtain employment as the Article I Section 7 President of the United States.          

Today, there is no possibility of obtaining justice in any court in America. Students who have enrolled in my Basic Course in Law and Government learn how George Washington turned the American presidency into a dictatorship.  The truth about law and government is only available through my Course of Instruction.  Go to my July 7, 2011 Post to take advantage of a special offer.

The Judiciary Act of 1789
September 24, 1789.
1 Stat. 73.

CHAP. XX.–An Act to establish the Judicial Courts of the United States.

SECTION 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the supreme court of the United States shall consist of a chief justice and five associate justices, any four of whom shall be a quorum, and shall hold annually at the seat of government two sessions, the one commencing the first Monday of February, and the other the first Monday of August. That the associate justices shall have precedence according to the date of their commissions, or when the commissions of two or more of them bear date on the same day, according to their respective ages.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 stated where the judicial power of the United States of America was to be placed in the first sentence of Article III: “The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.” 

It should be very clear from the language in the Judiciary Act of 1789 that Congress was enacting a system of legislative territorial courts for the United States, the lands owned by the United States of America.

The judicial power of the United States of America had two sources: the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 and its proprietary power over the lands owned by the United States of America. 

The Supreme Court of the United States was the simple result of legislative sausage making.  There was no reverent ordination or establishment of any high minded judicial institution just the ordinary chicanery that brought the federalists into power.
