POPSBook Review: ID Crisis, The Abuse and Tyranny of ID Give your Congressmen, governor, and state legislators a gift to restore sanity and liberty against REAL ID and the increasing total surveillance society. Remember the security merchandisers are lobbying them all everyday, selling their products at the expense of your liberty. This, along with the Constitution, is your ammo to fight back. Educate them with hard facts that refutes the effectiveness of ID methods as a means increasing security. Harper is the leading expert on countering ID propaganda.

POPSLawsuit to Counter Spy Bill Promised The constitution is supreme law over all legislation, period. ACLU promises a needed legal challenge. No tyranny permitted even if legislated. A legislative act, contrary to the Constitution, is not law.--Supreme Court Justice John Marshall

POPSSenate Approves Telecom Immunity & Spy Bill Proof the democrats (e.g. Obama) are not safer than the neocon controlled republicans: 4th Amendment trampled, violators now immune. This is not "compromise", but capitulation. For more indepth interview with the Telecom (AT&T) technician and whistleblower who discovered Americans were being spied on, listen to the Democracy Now interview here.

POPSSupreme Court Upholds 2nd Amendment, right to bear arms is personal but see even Scalia's "but" statements. They still want to "infringe". The idea of having a permit would be repugnant to Patrick Henry and the colonists of 1776. Notice how close this vote was, 5 to 4 by the Supremes , and even the most conservative do not deny some restrictions may be applied. "Shall not be infringed" is illegible to them apparently. So go buy yourself a Glock and learn how to safely use it. It's best to buy from private owners to keep yourself out of the "infringement" of federal data-bases which tracks gun sales, and could be accessed under PATRIOT ACT provisions upon any government desire to do so. My question is, what about the 4th amendment? This should be the next focus of challenges.

POPSAmerica Becoming Land of Surveillance Despite lack of evidence that it is effective, or evidence that proves it is not from UK studies. But the security merchandisers are making a fortune and state and local governments are impulsively spending faster than a woman with a credit card: .P. Freeman said the domestic market for such systems last year had doubled over five years, to $9.2 billion, and estimated that it would more than double again by 2010, to more than $21 billion. You are paying for your loss of liberty, while they profit, which is insult to injury. It's worth wondering how many government officials own stock in security companies, which would be a conflict of interest in that lawmakers also profit through authorizing this spending.

POPSSenators Challenge Illegal Border Searches of US Citizens unconstitutional, arbitrary search and seizure at borders widespread. Homeland Security gets challenged again by the 4th amendment, and it does not take a lawyer to prove they are illegally searching (like they do in airports too, without challenge). Where are the republicans...are they against freedom? Is this America or the Soviet Union? This is proof that customs is indoctrinated into paranoia and therefore over-aggressive action. If you go to Canada they pull all your personal info up on a screen...the Canadian customs apparently link to IRS files and your drivers license info here in the States!

POPSWest Virginia, Rogue State Formed Unlawfully
It's West Virginia Day June 20th. The state was formed illegally by a minority insurrection 145 years ago. Beautiful state, but with an unlawfully formed government. This is lifted from West Virginia's own archives. History records the controversy. "there is no evidence that the majority of people within the counties which were to compose the new state had ever given its assent to its formation." Fruits of the Civil War, "Old Dominion" Virginia was ripped in half. Virginia has never officially recognized the rogue state of West Virginia in law. Lincoln himself called it merely "expeditious", not legal. Lincoln and Congress had no more authority to permit the state anymore than Bush could authorize West Pennsylvania or Northern California. During the Civil War those who supported the Yankee Union position were called "anti-Virginians". State's rights was greatly trampled which the Constitution itself in the 10th amendment defends. It's been rougher eve

POPSArizona Joins the Revolt, Outlaws REAL ID Next! Liberty is a threatening thing to Homeland Security. If it was really about making drivers licenses secure then the Feds would not care. But it's really about federal power and their matrix of surveillance that they want to construct that is at stake.

POPSImpeachment Against Bush Introduced the Senate Intelligence report recently lends solid ground (see previous Clipmark): Article 1 - Creating a secret propaganda campaign to manufacture a false case for war against Iraq." Go to the Raw Story article to view the video of its introduction by Kucinich. Sad state of affairs, when a Congressman has to fight his own party Speaker to get the House to order and serious-mindedness about upholding the laws of the land!

POPSLieberman Pushing Internet Censorship; Bill in Congress NY Times editorial opposing his attempt to censor the internet. Tell your Senators to oppose this pending legislation , which is a ruse for censorship. Pardon me, but if "Al Qaeda" and "bin Laden" post videos on the internet at radical sites (per neocon propaganda fronts like SITE, and reported by ABC News), why can they not find them? (Those sites are not on YouTube or easily obtained). Answer: Because then there would be no propaganda to support the "war on terrorism" and "homeland security". All of this comes against the backdrop of a troubling Congressional antiterrorism bill that also focuses on the Internet. The Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act, which passed the House last year by a 404-to-6 vote, would establish a commission to study the terrorist threat and propose legislation. The bill, which the Senate has not acted on, has a finding that the Internet p

POPSAlaska Becomes 9th State to Outlaw REAL ID Tyrannical federal legislation sparked another Civil War against federal despotism, and the states are seceding from REAL ID continually, essentially using the doctrine of Nullification based upon the 10th amendment of the Constitution. The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Any state that respects the Constitution and freedom for its citizens will do the same.

POPSChertoff Wants to Israelize US Airport Security Big Brother expansion while he signs an agreement with Israel (can he do that?) to "share technologies". Chertoff holds dual citizenship and is part of the neocon-Israeli fifth column revolutionizing America into a police state. I wonder how much the Israeli companies will profit from this "sharing". By the way, what threat of terrorism? The probabilities are microscopic in comparison to crime or traffic accidents, yet we bow to the most extreme and expensive measures, none of which would stop a real suicidal terrorist? Everyone is treated as suspicious, and we call it "freedom"? But don't worry, you will be treated as well as a Palestinian in your "homeland".

POPSMinnesota REAL ID Showdown: Governor vs Legislature In this very bias article by the newspaper the reader is left with an incorrect impression: Gov. Tim Pawlenty killed a bill to bar national identity card rules, but issued a conciliatory executive order. No, it is entirely dishonest to say the Governor "killed" the bill against REAL ID when they later inform the reader of this fact: A bill prohibiting Minnesota's compliance with the Real ID requirement passed last week by overwhelming veto-proof margins in both the House and the Senate. The Governor cannot "kill" a bill that the legislature can over-ride. This battle is not over, but its clear the governor is playing the sycophant, carefully, for the Dept of Homeland Tyranny: The executive order, he added, "will give us an opportunity to work with our federal partners and state legislators to resolve the valid concerns regarding this program."

POPSIsrael: 60 Years of Denying Palestine refutes the lame argument that no "Palestinian State" existed, when neither did "Israel". Israel has no legally defined borders, no constitution, and is constantly expanding under plea of "divine right", granted by the arbitrary and usurping powers of a United Nations setup to reorganize the world.

POPSFrmr Congressman(R) Bob Barr for President (Libertarian) The Libertarians have a strong candidate, since Ron Paul declined to be their nominee. A great alternative who would stop the war and restore the Constitution and our liberties and roll back the size and scope of the Federal Leviathan that is devouring us and ruining our economy through heavy debt spending. This scares the neo-republicans, because now the Constitution Party and Libertarian Party will draw more votes from John McCain.

POPSRon Paul Refuses to Endorse McCain, Exposes Democrats' Hypocrisy Ron Paul is still contending upon principle and has not dropped out, and instead has released a best-selling book called "Revolution" to restore government to the Constitution. He essentially says that McCain is a RINO--republican in name only--and refuses to endorse him. Yet Rudy, Romney, Fred (also RINOs) and the Party all endorse him. Paul points out that there is really little choice to restore Constitutional government, fiscal conservative spending, civil liberties, or non-interventionist foreign policy among the soon current nominee leaders. He points out the hypocrisy of Hillary and Obama on the war, while saying that McCain is at least honest about his policy, bad as that policy is.

POPSFeds Practice DC Evacuation, "Continuity of Government" Practice and role play are the most powerful tools of indoctrination and propaganda about "terrorist threats", which forces policy into budgets and state and local actions. "Continuity of Government" in this scenario means kiss the Constitution good bye.

POPSHomeland Defense Task Force Created to be deployed during a "terrorist attack". Note the continuous propaganda we hear, and justification for continual federalizing of everything, is that a terrorist attack is "not if, but when", despite absolutely nothing for 7 years. Also everything is enabled always around fall timing, to coincide with September 11th to reinforce both the war and domestic Security State agendas that is trampling our Constitution and liberties, while domestic crime and traffic accidents are a greater threat than terrorism. Note also the deployment of spy drones, UAVs.

POPSJudge Rejects "State Secrets" Claim, Orders Watch Lists Open ...so that "free Americans" are not abused by Homeland Tyranny, arbitrary search and seizures when crossing borders. American citizens cannot be treated like criminals and terrorists without a "warrant, issued upon probable cause", and Dept. of HS must disclose Watch List status to those it treats otherwise. This could be a huge legal precedent to restore the norm of Constitutional restraints on government, with further applications than this.

POPSNYC Goes Totally Paranoid, "Torches" Liberty for Security Homeland Tyranny: Insane pretense of security at high cost to taxpayers that would prevent nothing from someone determined. Welcome to propaganda in "real time", acted out to reinforce and justify more of the same. Between total surveillance and this it does not look or feel like freedom, but fascism, and it is. Americans are more of a threat to each other (read crime statistics) and the mathematical probability of terrorism is microscopic in comparison. So all this is for NOTHING BUT SHOW! Not only Iraq, but now New York City is officially under Occupation.

POPSTexas Sect "Abused Teen" Caller a Fraud Obviously this woman is not a teen. The Texas authorities requested her arrest documents to be sealed, the article says at bottom. Why? So that the truth would not disturb their legally questionable procedures. The AP got it unsealed, but everyone is pretending as if it does not matter. The pattern of this woman in her fake calls of abuse suggests a conspiracy to make false accusations in order to justify inflammatory claims and proceedings.

POPSCato Institute Warns of Unjust Texas Sect Trial and Child Custody Seizure The Texas polygamist sect trial is dangerous precedent. This must-hear 9 minute Cato podcast warns about government exceeding its authority and the dangerous precedent of its unchecked powers (including CPS) where there is clearly a lack of evidence for the inflammatory claims. 400 children, most under 5, are being separated from their parents without any substantiation of claims of abuse, and the initial call was a fabrication from an impostor. This is an excellent presentation of the facts with sober analysis of a violation of government power and a very dangerous legal precedent is being established where the laws of evidence are being trampled. (How would you react if CPS or the government took your children based upon false accusations and distorted information?) Note also, as he states, that as of 2004, marriage was lawful in Texas down to 14 years of age, with parental consent. Click link

POPSWoman's Account of Civil War Battle--caring for wounded A very moving account. This southern woman gives an account of caring for the thousands of wounded that day, describing in detail what modern authors cannot even imagine. Historical reality is very awakening and sobering to consider. People wrote with pen then more vividly than modern screen writers. These words of hers bring images from print to mind... The Civil War claimed over 620,000* (*corrected) lives, more than all other U.S. wars combined to present, fighting not merely the Northern States but the Federal government in Washington! The fruits of Yankee-controlled government are now plain to see. People today think little of the reality of war, beyond news and political debates. This moving and touching scene in this woman's account shows it up close and personal. People should consider more what this war was really about if they consider the numbers involved, and that combat was often hand to hand, not bombing from a safe distance or high in the sky.

POPSPost-9/11 Memo Shows Disdain for Constitution Bush's "Justice" Dept had written memo claiming that 4th amendment of the Constitution "did not apply". The administration now disavows this position, it claims, yet we see little evidence of their disavowal in regard to civil liberties when it comes to domestic spying, the PATRIOT ACT, REAL ID, or a host of other examples. It was Bush who blurted out that the Constitution is "just a g--damned piece of paper" , when legal challenges were warned of.

POPSPush Congress on Enumerated Powers Act--Restrain Rogue Fed Powers Restrain the government within the Constitution! This powerful proposed law would require Congress to explain (i.e. enumerate) where in the Constitution each proposed piece of legislation is authorized. Consider their inability to justify REAL ID, PATRIOT ACT, Military Commissions Act, domestic spying, and even War with Iraq (without a declaration of war)! The "plea of necessity" is the tyrant's plea, as the founders and early Americans noted well, which has been employed liberally with the Bush administration (as well as many before it). "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation and foreign commerce." James Madison, Federalist No. 45

POPSTIME Says Americans Don't Care about "Big Brother" Sounds like propaganda to me. People are noticing, they only feel impotent to stop it. They need to get raving mad about it, and fight it now (beginning in the courts and thru law) before it gets embedded. Government usurps more power every day while Americans watch American Idol and entertain themselves to death (even Clipmark trivia), and are becoming like animals in a zoo, where "freedom" is very limited and controlled. Indolence leads to slavery. Only vigilance and zealous action leads to liberty.
