By The People

There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

A Belated Fourth of July, or The Fix Is In, Or A Country Without Laws






It is now an official fact that high Government Officials can; run guns over borders, run Guns to ISIS, Syrian Rebels, and ISIL, order billions of dollars of current military war vehicles abandoned to be taken over by the Enemies of America and used against American Forces, allow crossings of American Borders without intervention of any kind, break security regulations put in place to protect America, allow witnesses due to testify against high Government Officials to be accidentally killed, murdered, or commit suicide, allow no investigation of the death of a Supreme Court Justice (a known ideological opponent of the person occupying the White House) found suffocated with a pillow over his face, sacrifice hundreds of thousand of young Americans in unlawful foreign conflicts, spend multi-trillions of dollars to further undeclared or unknown agendas without any oversight, breach all parts of the contract (Constitution)  which legitimizes the existence of that private for profit incorporated Government, gerrymander voting districts to disadvantage opposing political parties, rig election outcomes, take weeks, months, or never fully tally the votes of the people, and apply one set of  rules with little accountability and no penalties to high government  officials - while another unlawful set of Public Policy statutes, regulations, and rules are applied to the people with one hundred percent accountability excessive penny-pinching fines, fees, and penalties are levied, take over the Afghanistan opium poppy fields to become the largest dealers in the world,  etc., etc,. etc., do whatever they want without the consent of anyone with no fear of reprisal, except the World Bank-The IMF-The UN-The Crown-The New World Order (to whom they have unlawfully sold everything). 

While people worry over and comment on what is or might be said on any of the social networks, more and more often, local governments are infiltrated, subverted, and taken over and then put to work to benefit the people running it and the cost is handed to the American people. The current group of Socialist-Liberal New World Order fanatics and followers scream for change and progress, redistribution and equality, 

Say anything, promise anything, just get into National Office and two years later they are worth more than a quarter of a million dollars, more when you add the benefits. The prime example of this activity is the person occupying the White House. He went from student status (broke) to 'Do Nothing' Senator to the White House, and has now amassed a gross worth of fifteen to twenty million dollars, a lifetime income, and real medical care for life, not to mention the benefits and perks. One need look no further than the bank accounts of the majority of these people to realize who and what they really are.

The complete failure of Departments, Bureaus, and Agencies of the government to faithfully carry out the mandated functions, ethically and morally, as stipulated by the contract (Constitution) under which they operate has become the norm. Oversight or self regulation upon ethical lines has become thin to nonexistent. Excellent examples exist everywhere:  the most recent is the FBI's director to differ recommendation for indictment of Hillary Rodham Clinton to Loretta Lynch. 

While brain dead Americans bankrupt buying football tickets and drool over Kim Kardashian, Justin Bieber, Beyonce' and a host of other no talent wannabes, the State of Affairs our forefathers gave their lives to protect is in shambles and all but gone. The Esteemed Readers should know the American Nation on the Fourth of July, 2016 could not be in any worse condition.

A Clear Message: Freedom

 With all of the turmoil in the world today, and all the saber rattling by the 'favorites' in the Republican party, a voice of reason gets lost in the din. But not last night!

In what many are calling a 'breakout performance', Kentucky Senator Rand Paul demonstrated why he is the right choice to truly make America the nation it was meant to be.

The CNN debate last night, the final debate for Republican candidates of the year, left little doubt that Senator Paul not only belonged on the main stage last night, but that his stance on the limits of government placed on it by the Constitution are both 'necessary and proper' to restore the nation to prosperity and security.

Each and every candidate stood by the war hawk mentality that we have to spend more, bomb more, determine the fate and policies of other nations through military force and presence. It hasn't helped us and it certainly hasn't promoted stability in any place that foreign policy is applied.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said we need to establish and enforce a 'no fly zone' over the airspace(s) of other nations and shoot down Russian warplanes if they dare enter that space. When did we get the authority over airspace of another sovereign nation? That is an invasion and a cause for war.  Russia is welcomed there, regardless of whether or not US foreign policy makers agree or not.

Billionaire megalomaniac Donald Trump wants to prevent Islamic terrorists from being able to recruit through social media by controlling the Internet. In other words, the First Amendment and free speech advocates are 'stupid'.  Only Rand Paul remained steadfast in defending the Constitution against all of his opponents.

Rand Paul stood up against Marco Rubio on NSA spying and issues of immigration 'amnesty', clearly demonstrating the abuse of power under such unconstitutional acts.

Immediately after the debate and continuing on Twitter and other social media, Rand Paul was hailed as the true champion of freedom and the man to really make 'America great again' even by liberals. I read several posts of Democrats who say they will change registration to vote for Rand Paul in the primaries.

The home run was in the closing statements, when Senator Paul said the greatest danger to the United States was the debt. How can we build border security when they nation is borrowing money at the rate of about a million dollars per minute?

It is apparent that Americans will have to choose whether they want more of the same or a restoration of the principles this nation was founded upon. I see the choice of freedom is embodied in electing a President who understands that above all issues, the Constitution is the point from which actions taken must begin. I we erode our freedoms for the illusion of security we will lose both. Benjamin Franklin knew this and so does Rand Paul. His message is clear:  FREEDOM!

Where Do We Go From Here?


Since 2008 I have been writing articles and sharing articles from other authors with the Esteemed Readers of Fix America. Over those years I  have also shared these posts on forums and within comments of news articles, published by the privately-owned major media and other media outlets of lesser fame.

Most of what I see, hear, and read today is a far cry from news correspondence of a free and impartial press. Instead we are bombarded with the analysis and commentary of others, who, have no more right to voice their opinions than anyone else. The problem is, that what we expect to be unadulterated reporting of current events is instead spin and propaganda, not news, based on the particular ideology of the publisher or their political handlers and their sponsors.

Over the span of the past six or so years, Fix American has informed and educated the Esteemed Readers with facts, and while my opinions and those of other authors are offered, the facts are presented in whole without embellishment.



In an attempt to stifle the views of opposition, Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) has so much as said that anyone with a cellphone and blog does not constitute a reporter, and she wants to stop anyone without 'proper credentials' from reporting news. In other words, if you don't plan on reporting what the government approves, you will be silenced. So now approval by the government is prerequisite for someone to obtain a press pass or even to work for the media as a reporter.

It is by the consent of the governed that governments exists in the first place. It is We the People who created a constitutional representative republican form of self-governance, by which the People and the States remain sovereign and the federal system of governance is the servant and not the master. When did that change, 1871?  You will find most of the answers in the posts that Fix America has published. What you will not find is how and why it happened. For that answer you will have to look for future articles.


If the People are to be free to live their lives as they so choose, they must be willing to do whatever it takes to defend that freedom. To enjoy the fruits of one's labor, to own property, to be safe in their lands and homes, these are what we must all defend for ourselves as individuals, and collectively as communities. We must also be willing to defend our State if need arises to do so.

It is apparent that we can no longer trust those who we elect, members of the corporate UNITED STATES, to protect our rights and secure our borders. It is therefore incumbent upon We the People to defend ourselves and our neighbors from this attack on our unalienable rights.

Without digressing into the intricate details that led to the revolt against Great Britain, it is obvious that the collective reasons were enough to risk everything to gain sovereignty and be free of servitude. 



Our rights have been taken and replaced with privileges, granted by the corporate UNITED STATES. Our freedoms are no longer a foregone conclusion as more and more infringements by militarized law enforcement agencies disregard even basic individual rights all over the nation. While focus is held to one or two incidents that are used as propaganda by the privately-owned major media to reinforce the justification for more laws that take away more individual rights, police forces are treating the People as enemies of the STATE and use deadly force against the most benign of our fellow citizens.

What can we do? How much abuse will We the People tolerate before taking action?


Where do we go from here?

Who Were The Minutemen?



In the early days of America as colonies, they were for the most part left to their own devices and defenses. It was therefore necessary that all men kept and bore arms, to protect that which they labored to build and own.  It was from this need for a common defense among all the people, that agreements were made to provide able-bodied men to take up arms when an alarm was sounded.

It became necessary then to make formal agreements of association to establish a militia of the people, that is a group of fighting men forming the people's civilian army. They were not an army under the control of a central government, rather they were ordinary men upon who duty deemed it necessary to train and be ready to come to the defense of their fellow colonists.

When the British stopped supplying gunpowder the colonist had  to make their own. When the British came to confiscate their arms, the colonists rebelled. There were many other things that were done to the colonists by the Crown, but as loyal subjects, they filed their grievances in the proper manner, and witnessed themselves being treated as less than the subjects in Great Britain were treated. But it was the attempts to take their arms that finally was the last straw or the "shot heard 'round the world"!

So who were the 'Minutemen' and what did they do to earn such a name for themselves? According to American Revolutionary War history they were a select group of well-prepared militiamen, who were so named because of  their rapid response to a call-to-arms when they were needed to defend against an enemy attack. Today they would be the Rapid Deployment Forces of an elite military. The Continental Army called up these minutemen for rapid response to British attacks. 

So to recap and put it as plain and simple as can be, I am no longer 'duty-bound' to join a militia as I have reached past the age of sixty, however my patriotism and sense of responsibility will keep me 'in the fight' to restore the Republic that has been taken from us all.




In light of the fact that we are being invaded on our southern border, with several reports of Mexican troops crossing and firing upon Americans, that surely looks like an act war, declared or not. Although the federal government is constitutional bound to protect the borders from invasion, they have not only ignored the duty, that are aiding and abetting the invasion!

There have been calls to arm and deploy the militias, to defend the border states from this invasion, but not by the governors of those states. The Governor of Texas has been complaining about the lack of federal support and has asked militias NOT to intervene as the Texas Department of Public Safety will respond. The problem is, they are grossly over-matched for the task.

It will then fall upon the sheriffs of those border counties to call forth the militia, and deputized them to defend the land. It is the duty of We the People to respond to that call, and be prepared to become part of the forces under orders of those officers assigned to lead.
