I came across this paper, which is the best single source I have ever seen that clearly explains how the USA government was set up, and how it is SUPPOSED TO function.
Most people today seem to think that the federal government is at the top, the States are below, and the People are at the bottom.
The truth is the opposite: The People are at the top, the States are below, and the federal government is at the bottom -- and it has only specific, LIMITED powers.
BUT ...
They have been trying to turn it all upside down via propaganda and deception.
They have done this by utilizing two specific clauses in the Constitution, which grants to the federal government EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY to pass ANY law they want -- but this power ONLY applies within the District of Columbia and the federal territories (Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and Northern Mariana Islands).
Regarding the 50 States of the Union, the federal government only has ENUMERATED POWERS ... written in the Constitution ... and NOTHING MORE.
But the 14th Amendment did, in fact, create a "new" class of citizenship, and everyone has been TRICKED into claiming they are that type of citizen.
That type of citizen (United States citizen) ... HAS NO RIGHTS.
That type of citizen has ONLY "privileges and immunities," but NO FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS FROM GOD.
If YOU claim to BE that type of citizen, then the government PRESUMES you are, and you have no fundamental rights. Thus, they treat you that way.
If you have ever heard or read about "State citizens," or "14th Amendment citizens" or similar, you have heard correctly, but I have never seen anyone put it all together in a clear, logical format, complete with US Supreme Court case law and other legal authorities to back it up -- until now.
This paper does it.
An important quote from the paper in the conclusion:
In any given Act of Congress, it is important to determine whether the Act is founded on some part of the U.S. Constitution whereby the States of the Union have delegated authority to the United States government and thereby bound themselves and the people who live therein to the Acts of Congress on that issue. Without the proper delegation of authority, the Acts of Congress apply only to the territory belonging to the United States and such Acts have no legal operational effect within the States of the Union. Moreover, without this delegation of authority, the agents of the United States government are without authority to enforce the Acts of Congress, Presidential Executive Orders, or regulations created by any secretary of the president’s cabinet.
It is 40 pages. If you can't take the time, over the next couple of days, to read through 40 pages, then guess what? YOU do not DESERVE to live in a free society.
So ... READ IT.
EVERYONE needs to read it. THIS is how we take back America.
We simply unravel the lies and deceipt, and assert our rightful ownership that has been taken by fraud.

In 1956, Congress commissioned to have a report created to tell THEM what THEIR federal jurisdiction is.
In 1957, a report of the findings was published.
"Jurisdiction Over Federal Areas Within the States" --
https://publiclandjurisdiction.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/1957-original-Part-II-Jurisdiction-Over-Federal-Areas-Within-the-State-no-index.pdf
The Constitution allows the federal government 3 jurisdictions ("authority to make law"):
(1) Article I, Section 8, Clauses 1-16: Subject matter jurisdiction (a) within the States of the Union and (b) for international matters (money, credit, post offices, bankruptcy courts, immigration, military, foreign commerce);
(2) Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 (and CLAUSE 17 ONLY): EXCLUSIVE jurisdiction (which means ANY and ALL laws) over the District of Columbia and "foreign enclaves" which are the military bases and dockyards within the States, whereby the State legislature gave up its jurisdiction to the federal government, mostly for military purposes, but also some other purposes; and
(3) Article IV, Section 3, Clause 2: EXCLUSIVE jurisdiction (which means ANY and ALL laws) for US territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, etc.).
So, they pass laws that ONLY apply to DC and federal territories, but then they PRETEND the laws apply within the 50 States.
The CDC did this with the fraudulent face mask "guildeline" during the Covid scam.
The legal authority they cited was a federal statute that had ONLY to do with imports of animals and plants "into the United States" (foreign commerce), and DID NOT have anything to do with face masks, humans, or any illnesses.
They just MADE UP OUT OF NOTHING their own authority based on a FALSE and FRAUDULENT interpretation of this statute.
That was the ENTIRE "legal basis" for face masks on airplanes, etc.
And NOT ONE ATTORNEY IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY bothered to read the damn LAW.
I did. And I posted about it here.
Why didn't THEY?
Absolutely, but what about these powers of Congress delineated in Article I Section 8: 5. To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and fix the standard of weights and measures; 6. To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States; ... After several attempts, Congress relented and gave the authority to coin money away to the criminal usurious Rothschild dynasty. This was voted on Christmas eve, on an island, without a quorum. Members who were opposed were killed (some on the Titanic). The following year, we were pushed into WWI.
They had no legitimate authority to delegate any of their powers, period. They never have, and never will, have that option. Same with the other branches.
