Path to Liberty

The revolution started years before the war commenced - a change in the views and sentiments of the people. And we can trace the beginning of the controversy between Great Britain and America to James Otis Jr, and his arguments against the Writs of Assistance in 1761.

$1 trillion spent in the 50 years since the Controlled Substances Act and Richard Nixon’s public war on drugs declaration. Implementing a UN global program of prohibition was never authorized under the Constitution in the first place.

The arguments supporting the creation of the First Bank of the U.S. became the basis for a loose constitutional construction that flipped the system on its head. Instead of a federal government exercising powers “few and defined,” it gave us a central government with powers “numerous and indefinite”

What we do, where we come from, and where we’re going. An overview of the core principles behind the foundation and work of the Tenth Amendment Center. And although we’ve accomplished a great deal already, we’re just getting started.

What will be the practical impact and effect of newly-passed nullification bills? That will truly be determined by human action, or a lack of it. Those willing to exercise their rights despite federal “laws” to the contrary, and those willing to keep the pressure on state and local governments to take further steps in the years to come, among others.

Natural Rights and Liberty - as we approach the TAC’s 15-year anniversary, discussing the essential foundation behind our work. Highlighting timeless insight from the founders and old revolutionaries - including Otis, Adams, Dickinson, Jefferson, Mason, Warren - and more.

When the feds usurp power never delegated to them in the Constitution, the founders told us to resist and nullify. Yet, most of the “conservative” movement rejected their advice and refused to nullify Obamacare. They instead focused on convincing federal judges and federal politicians to limit federal power. This has been a complete and utter disaster for the Constitution and liberty.

The government has embarked on a diabolical campaign to create a nation of suspects predicated on a massive national DNA database. And police are increasingly accessing databases from private companies - with or without a warrant or probable cause. This is a slippery slope toward a dystopian world in which there is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. But two states have taken the first step to push back. Will they set a new standard, or is it too little, too late?

Using the 10th Amendment to defend the 2nd Amendment - four states with new laws on the books for 2021. And 3 others that are getting close to joining them. These are great steps forward, but just the beginning. As Samuel Adams put it, “Instead of sitting down satisfied with the efforts we have already made, which is the wish of our enemies, the necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude and perseverance.”

Alexander Hamilton went from arguing that the federal government would only have “expressly delegated” powers during the ratification debates, to saying there was a vast reservoir of “implied powers” when he needed them to get a national bank.
