The first exhibit is taken from a book written by Carl Brent Swisher -- American Constitutional Development, A complete constitutional history, from the British colonies to the Truman era. Let's read the first paragraph. It says, "We may well wonder in view of the precedents now established," said Charles E. Hughes, (Supreme Court Justice) in 1920, "whether constitutional government as heretofore maintained in this Republic could survive another great war even victoriously waged."How could that happen? Surely, if we go out and fight a war and win it, we'd have to end up stronger than the day we started, wouldn't we? Justice Hughes goes on to say, "The conflict known as the World War had ended as far as military hostilities were concerned, but was not yet officially terminated. Most of the war statutes were still in effect, many of the emergency organizations were still in operation."What is this man talking about when he speaks of "war statutes in effect and emergency organizations still in operation"?

I tried to edit the post as best I can, but there are still minor pieces that have been added to by BFW. The original document I have in possession is in storage, and I probably won't get around to a thorough checksum any time soon. In any case, I managed to get rid of some of the opinionated conjecture and leave only the facts. If anybody has questions, feel free to ask and perhaps I could clarify.
Thanks for posting this. The people who would benefit most from reading this probably wont take the time or have the capacity of attention to stay focused for that long. I think it is important to mention that they have given remedy to all of the actions they take, however obscure so that they themselves have loop holes with which to get themselves out. For instance usc title 12 section 411 gives everyone the right to use frns as lawful money in transactions that are exempt from taxes. It is also important to note that these are all legal words that only apply to us in our ignorance. If you notice words like person are defined in blacks law as corporations and men and women never make it into those status because they are common law words and can not be used. This is why people like mountain man who wins in court pay very specific attention to the words they use and those being used against them.
thank you for posting this. "It is not copyrighted information, and is free for all." means I shall repost this with like minded folk. I trust that meets with your approval.
MYTH: The National Emergencies Act (PL 94-412) rescinded all emergencies declared by previous Presidents and removes any and all Proclamations. Truth: The National Emergencies Act (PL 94-412) explicitly exempts the Trading With the Enemy Act of 1917 as amended, which is the Presidential Proclamation I referenced (#2039) and the empowering portion is Congress's approval USCA Title 12, Section 95(b) -all of this is clearly explained. Quoting from the National Emergencies Act, Section 502: "SEC.502.(a)The provisions of this Act shall not apply to the following provisions of law. The powers and authorities conferred thereby, and actions taken thereunder: (1)Section 5(b) of the Act of October 6,1917, as amended (12 U.S.C. 95A;50 U.S.C.
