The post You Don’t have “2nd Amendment Rights.” You Just have Rights. appeared first on Tenth Amendment Center.

While most people recognize that the Constitution created a much more “energetic” system than under the Articles of Confederation, few know that early plans during the convention, like James Madison’s Virginia Plan, would have set up a system much closer to the unlimited power of the British that the revolutionaries fought to free themselves from.

With an enforcement deadline looming, potentially affecting millions of stabilizing braces, the new ATF rule is – as the founders told us – a test or an “experiment of your disposition.”

The post Pistol Brace Rule: A Test of your Disposition appeared first on Tenth Amendment Center.

As support for state efforts against a central bank digital currency ramps up, we’re starting to hear what opponents have to say. You probably won’t be surprised to learn that much of it is based on their view that federal supremacy is the answer to everything.

Once they get new powers for one “emergency” or another – they don’t give them back, at least voluntarily. And even when they stop using them – it’s just until the next time.

States and individuals can stop a CBDC. It’s going to take hard work – and good strategy. The latter, we’ve got from the “father of the Constitution” – who gave us a four-step blueprint to stop federal programs without relying on the federal government to magically limit its own power.

Supporters of the monster state want you to believe that unless the “debt ceiling” is raised – yet again – we’ll have absolute chaos. But the truth is, it’s actually the other way around.
