Although no gunshots were fired, what happened at the Bundy Ranch was a shot fired
across the bow using the most powerful weapon in the infowar, the camera. It captured the iconic moment of the
people taking on an aggressive government tyranny, a snapshot that still reverberates one year later. We look at
the lies, the spin and the reality of a federal government openly defying The Posse Comitatus Act as it threatened
and brutalized citizens of the community. Although the sheriff did nothing to protect the community, neighbor stood
with neighbor in true posse comitatus, the “power of the community”, to expel the federal army from the
community.
As we highlighted in a recent podcast, the peer-to-peer economy is transforming us from a
society of middlemen (factories, distributors, corporations) into a society of independent producers capable of
interacting directly with customers and like-minded communities. But now the P2P economy is being acknowledged by
the mainstream as they attempt to play catch up on an idea that is threatening to topple the old system of
control.

Aesop's Fables or the Aesopica is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave
and storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 564 BCE. Of diverse
origins, the stories associated with Aesop's name have descended to modern times through a number
of sources. They continue to be reinterpreted in different verbal registers and in popular as well
as artistic media.
"Here’s the bottom line. You are not supposed to wait 2 or
4 years for some new politicians to get in office and give your permission to be free. You are not supposed to
wait 2 or 4 or 6 years for some federal court to tell you, “ok, you be free now.” You are supposed to stand up
resist, refuse to comply and nullify unconstitutional federal acts – as soon as they happen. All the money and
time you throw at firing congress or winning in federal court will never, ever work – unless you start resisting
right here in your state. And, that resistance needs to be your first response, not your
last."- Michael Boldin, Article: James Madison: How to Stop
the Federal Government
In response to federal overreach, most people tend to focus on three types of actions to stop them: elections,
conventions, and lawsuits. While they all have their place in an overall strategy to defend the Constitution, none
of them should be the first step forward. That is, if you follow the advice of the “Father of
the Constitution.”
Here’s what James Madison had to say in Federalist
#46. The Influence of the State and Federal Governments Compared:
“Should an unwarrantable measure of the federal government be unpopular in particular States, which would
seldom fail to be the case, or even a warrantable measure be so, which may sometimes be the case, the means of
opposition to it are powerful and at hand. The disquietude of the people; their repugnance and, perhaps refusal
to cooperate with officers of the Union, the frowns of the executive magistracy of the State; the embarrassment
created by legislative devices, which would often be added on such occasions, would oppose, in any State, very
serious impediments; and were the sentiments of several adjoining States happen to be in Union, would present
obstructions which the federal government would hardly be willing to encounter.”
Let me translate. Madison said that when the federal government passes an unconstitutional measure there are
powerful methods to oppose it – amongst the people and in the states. He also pointed out that those methods were
available even for warrantable, that is constitutional, measures.
Madison told us of four things that should be done to resist federal powers, whether merely unpopular, or
unconstitutional.
1. Disquietude of the people – Madison expected the people would throw a fit when the feds usurped
power – even using the word “repugnance” to describe their displeasure. That leads to the next step.
2. Repugnance and Refusal to co-operate with the officers of the Union – Noncompliance. The #1
dictionary of the time defined repugnance as “disobedient; not obsequious” (compliant). If you want to stop the
federal government, you have to disobey them. Madison also suggested that people would perhaps directly refuse to
cooperate with federal agents. This is an approach we preach here every day at the Tenth Amendment Center. James
Madison apparently knew what we know today. The feds rely on cooperation from state and local governments, as well
as individuals. When enough people refuse to comply, they simply can’t enforce their so-called laws.
3, The frowns of the executive magistracy of the State – Here Madison envisions governors formally
protesting federal actions. This not only raises public awareness; executive leadership will also lead to the next
step – legislative action.
4. Legislative devices, which would often be added on such occasions – Madison keeps this
open-ended, and in the years soon after, which I’ll cover shortly, we learn how both he and Thomas Jefferson
applied this step.
Madison also told us that if several adjoining States would do the same it would be an effective tool to stop
federal acts. To repeat, he said that doing this “would present obstructions which the federal government would
hardly be willing to encounter.”
Judge Andrew Napolitano agreed recently and said that people need to stop enforcing unconstitutional federal
laws. He also said that if you could get an entire state doing this, it would make federal laws “nearly impossible
to enforce.”
What’s important to note here, are some glaring omissions. The powerful means that Madison told us would be used
to oppose federal power successfully did NOT include federal lawsuits in federal courts. He also did NOT include
“voting the bums out” as a strategy, either.
FIRST RESPONSE
Compare that with how people generally respond to what they consider unconstitutional or unpopular federal acts
today.
The first thing I tend to hear from people who are opposed to a federal act is the “vote the bums out” mantra.
We’ll fire congress, right?
Or some people tell us we have to sue and let the courts decide.
I’ve got some news for you. There’s nothing from the founders – anywhere – in which they tell us that our first
response to extreme, repeated violations of the constitution and liberty is to vote the bums out, or sue the feds
in federal court. Nothing.
LEGISLATIVE DEVICES
Thomas Jefferson followed up on this in 1798 with the same kind of advice. That year, the Adams administration
passed a wildly unconstitutional attack on the freedom of speech with the Alien and Sedition Acts. In response,
while sitting as vice-president, Jefferson secretly drafted the Kentucky Resolutions, and here’s a little of what
he wrote:
“The several states composing the united states of america are not united on a principle of unlimited
submission to their general government.”
“where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful
remedy”
“that every State has a natural right in cases not within the compact to nullify of their own authority all
assumptions of power by others within their limits: that without this right, they would be under the dominion,
absolute and unlimited, of whosoever might exercise this right of judgment for them”
Madison was consistent in his views on this. In 1798, he also drafted and help pass something known as the
Virginia Resolutions, a state-level “legislative device” in response to the Alien and Sedition Acts. Here’s a key
part:
in case of a deliberate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of other powers, not granted by the said
compact, the states who are parties thereto, have the right, and are in duty bound, to interpose for arresting
the progress of the evil, and for maintaining within their respective limits, the authorities, rights and
liberties appertaining to them.
Like Madison advised in Federalist #46, both he and Thomas Jefferson advised a state-level response to dangerous
federal acts. In 1798, neither of them even mentioned voting or lawsuits.
Jefferson told us that a “nullification is the rightful remedy.” And Madison told us that states are “duty-bound
to interpose.”
When Daniel Webster called on these same principles in response to military conscription plans during the war of
1812, he said:
“The operation of measures thus unconstitutional and illegal ought to be prevented by a resort to other
measures which are both constitutional and legal. It will be the solemn duty of the State governments to
protect their own authority over their own militia, and to interpose between their citizens and arbitrary
power. These are among the objects for which the State governments exist; and their highest obligations bind
them to the preservation of their own rights and the liberties of their people”
Here’s the bottom line. You are not supposed to wait 2 or 4 years for some new politicians to get in office and
give your permission to be free. You are not supposed to wait 2 or 4 or 6 years for some federal court to tell you,
“ok, you be free now.”
You are supposed to stand up resist, refuse to comply and nullify unconstitutional federal acts – as soon as
they happen.
All the money and time you throw at firing congress or winning in federal court will never, ever work – unless
you start resisting right here in your state. And, that resistance needs to be your first response, not your
last.
