The UCMJ is very clear who is subject to it. I am not subject to military law and I don't plan on joining the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or the other 8 categories of people subject to the UCMJ.
I've looked into the devolution thing and it takes true bits like this
the President has extraordinary powers as CiC when responding to an act of war.
And then stretches that truth to things like this
Trump used "extraordinary powers" to circumvent the normal Constitutional process and enact CoG under limited martial law, or something to that effect.
We are not under martial law. Our government is continuing normally.
I'm not talking about the UCMJ. That governs the military itself.
I'm talking about the fact that the Continental Marines and Continental Army existed BEFORE the Constitution, and the military/militia at that time secured the land for the States to exist first, which then formed the federal jurisdiction under the Constitution. The military precedes any civilian governments as an institution.
The whole world is under admiralty (military) jurisdiction by default.
If all governments collapsed the military (people with guns) would automatically run everything.
It absolutely does not.

It's the highest jurisdiction there is.
So what?
Lots of things existed before the Constitution.
You know didn't exist at the time of the Constitution? The Continental Army.
Because,
I used to have lunch in the place where George Washington said goodbye to his men.
When ever you go to court ... carefully check the symbols .... you might be surprised.
