Stopped after about 8:00; who will enforce the tenth amendment?

Also, this moron doesnt know shit abiut the “Civil War”. Lincoln made it about slavery a couple years in, after he started losing initiative. Further, he needs to read the document used by Virginia to ratify the Constitution, where it clearly states Virginia reserves the right to leave should the federal government become destructive of the rights of Virginians. Thus, since Virginia was accepted with this stipulation, Virginia’s secession was legal. This means Lincoln’s invasion of Virginia was illegal, warranting armed resistance to the invasion.

scroll to the bottom:
“We, the delegates of the people of Virginia, duly elected in pursuance of a recommendation from the General Assembly, and now met in Convention, having fully and freely investigated and discussed the proceeding of the federal Convention, and being prepared, as well as the most mature deliberation hath enabled us, to decide thereon, Do, in the name and in behalf of the people of Virginia, declare and make known, that the powers granted under the Constitution, being derived from the people of the United States, be resumed by them whensoever the same shah be perverted to their injury or oppression, and that every power, not granted thereby, remains with them, and at their will; that, therefore, no right, of any denomination, can be cancelled, abridged, restrained, or modified, by the Congress, by the Senate or House of Representatives, acting in any capacity, by the President, or any department or officer of the United States, except in those instances in which power is given by the Constitution for those purposes; and that, among other essential rights, the liberty of conscience and of the press cannot be cancelled, abridged, restrained, or modified, by any authority of the United States.
“With these impressions, with a solemn appeal to the Searcher of hearts for the purity of our intentions, and under the conviction that whatsoever imperfections may exist in the Constitution ought rather to be examined m the mode prescribed therein, than to bring the Union into danger by delay, with a hope of obtaining amendments previous to the ratifications, —
“We, the said delegates, in the name and behalf of the people of Virginia, do by these presents, assent to and ratify the Constitution, recommended on the seventeenth day of September, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-seven, by the federal Convention, for the government of the United States; hereby announcing to all those whom it may concern, that the said Constitution is binding upon the said people, according to an authentic copy hereto annexed, in the words following.”

Good point about the10th amendment. Nobody will enforce it.
There is no way to get along with these people. Video: MSNBC Talking Head Calls GOP “Front For A Terrorist Organisation” – Summit News Separate now with as amicable divorce as is possible and get on with it. The other way is to continue circling the drain.

This is a repackaged and a recycled message touting voting, in a country in which civics hasn’t even been taught over many decades. There was no plan presented, but rather the stale ‘shrink government, and get a different strain of politician’ which implies the individual and local engagement working together in directionality, and therefore is not feasible because of, in part, the very divisions that were mentioned and even more foundational issues (such as economic and religious components). He seems to think there’s a prevailing conservative mechanism inherent in the system and there’s not. It comes down to worldview and how people group and practice politics based on that. It seemed the focus should have been on education, and viable national separation, such as teaching practical life skill sets. All this wasted time on a failed political system will likely make things worse as geopolitics become more unstable.

How did we get here? By design. Both the communists and globalists wanted to change the demographics of this country and Europe. For different reasons. The end goal, to make their plan work, was to destroy the existing demographic and our culture. Separating us won’t save us. They won’t let us separate. We have to crush them. It won’t be pretty. It’s gonna hurt a lot. For a long time. Other countries will try to take advantage during the mess. Unless someone has a plan to wipe out the enemy very quickly, it’s basically over. Those of us that survive will have to make a new way of life or die. Smile. They hate when we smile.

It was easy to spot having lived through this same operation in South Africa in the 90’s . That’s where the model was tested and Boer separation was quickly squashed. Apartheid was the dead opposite of globalization. It worked until dismantled. Nothing new under the sun.

Solomon used the expression “under the sun” 29 times in the Book of Ecclesiastes. Satan’s tactic haven’t changed since his beginning. South Africa was the test bed as you stated. No, there is nothing new under the sun if you’ve read that Book, the “”god of this world”doesn’t change his tactics.

The Warrior Poet appears to be a nice person that believes if we can just vote into office the right people then everything will go back to normal. Of course he does not address any of the root causes for the decline of the united States. Of course, be believes that since secession was forcefully put down during the war of northern aggression, therefore, the same thing will happen again, although, he does not list any of the strengths and weaknesses for secession nor does he address the changing economics between the communist blue areas and the freedom wanting red areas. His whole agreement is based on his opinion without and real facts. In short, he offers nothing other than keep on doing what we have been doing and hopefully we will return to normal. Who is $ John Galt? TEXIT!
