RE: Article : HOP ON BOARD THE OPIC – USAID CORPORATE GRAVY TRAIN. OPERATED BY SENIOR EXECUTIVE SERVICE. FUELED BY U.S. TAXPAYERS.
Yes. Exactly, name the bad actors and penalize their acts. Take a look at what Peter Strzok has been doing. It's nothing short of sedition, conspiracy and ...there is a code specifically about threatening to assassinate the president, but I can't remember if it's Title 18 or other federal code... and he should be up on charges for applicable Title 18 federal crimes. Forget about investigation. That's done. EXECUTION OF THE LAW is what is missing. Instead, he gets dismissed from the FBI post so he can concentrate attention on his CIA post!
The way I see it, you, me and every other commoner knows what lawlessness and criminality look like, because we have morals and a sense of justice and will to do right for the common good. The parasites in power don't have a sense of public service or even work ethic. The majority are there to serve their own interests.
If there was a will to clean house, it would happen. I don't think that will exists where it's needed - within the corrupt institutions and agencies of government.
Anyway, do you think the 13th Amendment could be resurrected? I was looking up legal definitions for 'honor/honour'. Seems to be applicable only to judges, as in 'your honor' in the US. If it was meant to apply to "honorable members" of the House, they'd all be ineligible the moment they are confirmed, so that can't be what was meant. I don't think lawyers have ever held the honor title. Have they?
Do you know anything about the rights of people to arrange Citizens' Grand Juries? There's a site committed to it and I listened to a few video from the group. He spoke about original processes that enabled recalls of representatives, but that the process had been removed at some point. Remembering that the Anti-Federalists had to argue hard to get the Bill of Rights into the Constitution, it seems only rational to suspect Federalists of purposefully removing what impedes their interests. Recall might be the answer. If it were possible to get such a bill passed, the establishment of 3-month probationary periods for reps would be useful. Let the people decide with referenda if there's a questionable character in the House
Ahhhh, pipe dreams!
All tittles are included. So our judges if insist they be addressed as "honor" are also admitting to be unconstitutional.
So who is the Government here in America?
Thomas Jefferson said: "I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education.
The Grand Jury Belongs to The People–Antonin Scalia (1992)
As proof: Supreme Court UNITED STATES, Petitioner v. John H. WILLIAMS, Jr.

In short where ever there is 24 wise Americans there is possibly a Grand Jury!

P.S In regards to this : "He spoke about original processes that enabled recalls of representatives, but that the process had been removed at some point."
No process of the Grand Jury can be removed either by legislation or any other means. All unconstitutional legislation that Abridges the constitution is null and void from the get go. That civics course would cause you to rube up against such knowledge.
That philosophy has been overshadowed by the forces that prompted Jefferson to express it. There's a lot of condescension and day by day, less education.
I think it might be a good idea to get sheriffs to print and distribute handbooks and hold county and state wide meetings. If there is a way to send them PDFs via email or twitter that would also cut costs.
Who can arrange grand juries and select jurers?
I think most of the executive, as well as congress and the senate should be selected through a jury-duty process. Every child should be educated to prepare them to serve one term in their lifetimes at all levels - county, state and national - government. That would eliminate parasitic career politicians. I also think candidates for any public office should have to pass the Hare Psychopathy Checklist. Self-serving psychopaths are unqualified to serve public interests.
But first things first. DRAIN THE SWAMP.
It is true that there is less education. Mainly I think it is because there are more distractions.
"That philosophy has been overshadowed by the forces that prompted Jefferson to express it. There's a lot of condescension and day by day, less education."
A truth about ideas is the fact that such cannot be slain. Thus if you find the philosophy to be good and true, no one else can over shadow it.
"I think it might be a good idea to get sheriffs to print and distribute handbooks and hold county and state wide meetings. "
Look a little closer and you will find Sheriffs are handing out handbooks and have done video's in support of the Constitution.
"Who can arrange grand juries and select jurers?"
If you look at the culture and traditions where Grand Jury's and Petite Jury's are concerned, what you will find is that historically they have appointed themselves. In fact you see this in the Magna Carta of 1215 AD.
So I have a question. Why would anyone allow the oppressor to change the culture and tradition of our Jury system?
Well, if the juries appoint themselves, I suspect the oppressors are inviting them to step up, because they are onside with the oppressor and or the suspect that the oppressor society wants to protect. Do you think just ANYONE self-appoints for jury duty? I think, as the saying goes, 'the jury is rigged' to suit the interests of the oppressors, so changing the system always gets the nod.
Good to hear that Sheriffs are getting involved. Speaking out to educated the people is good, talking amongst themselves (sheriffs) to build a network of trust, cooperation and a unified resistance is even better. That reminds me, did you know that the Ohio Mountain Brigade National Guard were sent to Afghanistan in spring? Think about that...sending the National Guard overseas. Do you think the powers that be want a defenseless, disarmed state? They also do URBAN WARFARE training with aircraft in Ohio. Looks like they're planning to have a substantial number of CIVILIAN CASUALTIES. In fact, the civilian casualty figures has been escalating. They (Executive, DC) stopped reporting this May 1st.

Sure, ideas can live on in the minds and hushed conversations between trusted friends long after such ideas are prohibited in public and made into thought-crimes. See how Jefferson's idea faded into the woodwork for all these generations? Couldn't have been a priority to teach civic duty to children all this time. Sure, the idea has been HERE all this time, but it wasn't where it needs to be, in the minds of every citizen. What takes up that space used to be patriotism and the 'honor' to go to war for the oil barons. And now, what are children taught, universally? Don't answer that! The subject isn't even fit for mixed company...
