    no, we are not in the United States, there was a brief period that we had the US mostly back from 2017 to 2021, but even that was under attack from inside and from without

    the fall of the United States started with the appointment of the il-legal alien Caesar 0bama and now continues with the corrupt traitor biden the usurper

    those that should have acted to stop both, those that swore Oaths, have done nothing, preferring to collect their pensions, fill their faces, sit back and watch sports

      The Obama 3rd term (Biden) is just a push toward the end of whatever instruction manual the Deep State is following.

      After 35 years of pondering I'm still tring to figure this stuff out...

    States of America, divided into Red and Blue!
    Criminal, Liberal media kept Blue for themselves, attached Red to Republicans and label conservatives terrorist! I am so tired of hearing this
    constitutional republic called a democracy.

      And by "democracy" THEY mean that they count the votes, with the authority to jail anyone who questions their totals - so looters stay in power forever. No exaggeration.

      Remember when the Reds were Communists, with the red being for the blood to be shed in establishing the Dictatorship of the Proletariat?

      Who gave the Republicans the color red anyway? I certainly didn't.

    "We" have never been the United States.
    Only the scum in D.C. has been that corporation.
    "We" are the sovereign people of the States united.
    We should start acting like it and crush the Deep State D.C.

      the rise of the carbetbaggers was a major blow to Freedom for all, using taxes as a weapon

        I know I've said this before, but one of my ancestors received a land grant in payment for his services in the Continental Army. No property taxes. No income taxes. No government busy bodies telling him what kind of house to build or how to build it. No busy bodies telling him what to plant or not plant or what to charge for his crop. He represents the first generation of free Americans. It's been going downhill since then for the citizenry and it's falling faster and faster. Edit add: The only remembrance left of him is there is a street in Elmira, NY that still bears his name.

          How did the government get the right to "grant" land to anyone? Wasn't it supposed to be that the person who aspired to it walked around a certain amount of it in a day, or cultivated it, or fenced it in---or something?

            It is my understanding that the Colonial (rebel) government of the State (Colony) of NY offered land grants to some who served or signed up to serve in the Continental Army instead of cash it didn't have. Usually this wasn't very good land located mostly in "the wilderness" and had to be cleared before settling on it. This particular land is near where Elmira is today. The indigenous people fought on the side of the British and were defeated and, like the Tories, didn't fare well after the war was over. [Side note, some of these same tribes fought on the side of the French during the French and Indian War and that didn't work out well for them, either.]

            Shooting from the hip here, recall most land in pre revolution days was held by the royal government (king) and parceling it out was by kings agents by various means. After the war the kings lands fell into the stewardship (ownership) of the colonies (states), who then parceled it out as we see today. Whether or not these governments had some "right" to grant such land may be argued until the cows come home, but the whole thing is moot because history has given us what we have.

    I must be sleeping because for the 47th time, you posted about something YOU saw, but can't be bothered with a reference or link.
