The wreck of the Libertarian Party finally gets a sharp, competent personable and vote-getting candidate nominated. So what happens? The butthurt Alabama Jesus Caucus makes sure its boy Trump hogs all media coverage with his gathering of boos, catcalls, dead cats and rubber chickens. No foreign or Wallace State reporter has a clue who the real nominee is. (link) But there’s more…
While Trump-aping MAGAts infiltrated the LP, other MAGAts infiltrated the staff of the Reason Foundation. We should have expected nothing less, considering the level of angry hatefulness after Grabbers-Of-Pussy were rejected wholesale by male and female voters alike for the third time in 2021. The Lizard is an example I can relate to. The Catholic papacy tried to brainwash me as a child the way it did Hitler and Wolfe. But the vicious way Marjorie Greene-Teeth 2.0 flew into candidate Chase Oliver was too embarrassing to let pass.
The Constitution charges the President with command of the Armed Forces and to see that the laws are faithfully executed. So what do The Lizard and Florida-Republican Zack ask about? Failure to demand that women be forced to reproduce at gunpoint, and sundry other hobgoblins of little minds! By bowing to the real-world fact of reality that parents make decisions on behalf of contractually incompetent minors–a State, County and Municipal concern unrelated to the office the candidate is running for–Oliver became the target of constant and shrill interruptions by Lizard-as-harridan. Until the Political State again doubles the rate of maternal deaths back to pre-Roe levels, the Jesus Caucus will be haunted as before. There is nothing more terrifying, I am told, than the mystical conservative’s haunting fear that someone, somewhere, might be free and happy!
Good Reading: The Politics of Prohibition: American Governance and the Prohibition Party, 1869–1933, by Lisa MF Andersen (link) Every smear, insinuation, snide remark, logical fallacy, lie, calumny and red herring used today to demoralize the libertarian party’s quest for freedom was recited in the past against the Prohibition Party’s struggle for Mohammedan-style coercion by deadly force. But with 2% of the vote they won, just as Libertarians are undoing their damage with 2% of the vote today.

Brazilian Sci-fi from 1926 featuring the beautiful daughter of a scientist touting prohibition and racial collectivism in America’s Black President 2228 by Monteiro Lobato, translated by J Henry Phillips (link)
When laissez-faire free-market intellectuals left the GOP in disgust at Nixon’s prohibitionism, warmongering and dishonest coercion, the Libertarian Party organized so voters could exert law-repealing clout. Nixon’s soft machine promptly used the IRS and its tax forms to subsidize political campaigns to elect entrenched Kleptocracy candidates.(link) Despite those machinations, our candidates earned nearly 4000 popular votes albeit on the ballot only in Colorado and Washington, and official write-in candidates in four others.
To dislodge entrenched laws and policies the original LP platform produced incredible vote share growth before the platform was tampered with. Collapses from the Reagan-Bush-Bush prohibition Crash in 1987, recession in 1990-92 and Collapse in 2008 were what woke voters up to LP repeal planks. Dems learned the hard way and now clumsily repeal violent prohibitionism and deadly girl-bullying laws–which is why they are in office. Mises MAGAts have made the rump LP a stench in the nostrils of women voters–the opposite of when our vote total leapt by 47 times, then 251 times that original vote total before obnoxious, meddlesome planks dragged us down and froze all progress.(link)
The Bush Jr strategy was relying on imported oil while baiting oil-rich Mohammedans until a terrorist attack got him reelected. This empowered George Waffen to issue Executive Orders establishing faith-based asset-forfeiture looting as policy… because plant leaves. The plant leaves were often grown in mortgaged houses that became liabilities when confiscated, so the mortgage-backed securities market HAD to collapse after the confiscations. That worst of all recent Crashes and Depressions, in 2008, outed religious fanatics creating looters-by-law as the causes of crashes in 1929, 1971, 1987, 1990 and 2008.(link)
The prohibition-triggered Flash Crash of May 6, 2010 was further proof to stock traders that one has to choose between violent prohibitionism and economic stability.(link) This–plus deletion of no-borders and child molester planks smuggled amid thirteen thousand needless words into LP platforms in the 1980s–rekindled that initial steep increase in Libertarian vote counts in 2008 and 2012.
Gary Johnson’s rejection of Republican demands that pregnant women be coerced brought us up to well over three percent of the vote. Thus four million repeal-minded libertarian votes reshuffled 127 electoral votes counted by 13 states. An accidental result of that–thanks to Democratic party insistence on robbing and jailing people over plant leaves–was the election of a loudmouthed looter populist whose eleventh-hour appointment of a religious fanatic judge overturned the Libertarian victory of Roe v Wade.(link) Republicans quickly moved to infiltrate and neutralize the Libertarian Party, much like their predecessors infiltrated and neutralized Austria in 1938.(link)
Infiltrator sabotage is what defeats the LP, over and over.

National socialists replaced all but lackeys and collaborationists with their own fifth columns, and transformed the conquered into producers of war materiel for Germany. Mass-murder, infiltration and torture made resistance difficult.

WOMEN CANNOT BE LAWYERS–DECISION REACHED BY THE BRITISH HOUSE OF LORDS–London, December 2, 1903–The House of Lords has finally decided that women are debarred by their sex from becoming qualified lawyers in this country. The question arose on the appeal of a Londoner, Miss Bertha Cave, against the decision of the benchers of Gray’s Inn not to admit her as a student for the purpose of being called to the bar. The Court decided that there was no precedent for a woman’s admission to the Inns of Court and no reason to create a precedent. The benchers assert that the statutes of Grey’s Inn ignore women so absolutely as to leave them no power to admit a woman.(link) This was a year after President Theodore Roosevelt (R) wrote the Race Suicide letter urging that penal codes coerce women into service as reproductive dams. Is it any wonder that women are to this day held in bondage of involuntary reproduction in such voodoo States as El Salvador, Madagascar, Honduras and Texas. *** See also: https://americansall.org/legacy-story-group/timeline-womens-suffrage-movement-1903-1912
Good reading: The Ego and His Own, by Max Stirner, Translated by Steven T. Bylington, was mentioned in H.L. Mencken’s brilliant dissection of Friedrich Nietzsche first published a year later. I found it free on Gutenberg (link), but it is widely available elsewhere. The translator admits the 1844 original is odd, and that the translation suffered academic and publisher meddling. The result is decidely odd prose reflecting stilted German construction, yet nonetheless interesting to readers of Nietzsche, Mencken, Rand and Tara Smith. It is a derivation of individualism as philosophical valuation, and of course rejects communist altruism and questions mystical premises. That did not stop communist intellectuals from calling themselves anarchists and claiming the author as one of theirs–just as they fastened like lampreys on the libertarian party loudly proclaiming “WE’RE YOUR FRIENDS!” (link) Observe that “anarchists” never organize their own political political organizations for the rest of us to seek out as kindred spirits. Nobody seeks the company of parasites! Fortunately, anyone reading the book is disabused of any such notion. The author’s approach predates and avoids Nietzsche’s predatory derivations and likewise sidesteps pietistic and pitiable wheedling traditionally fobbed off as values.

Libertarian Roger McBride Campaigns for the Presidency, by David Shutts, the Cavalier daily, February 20, 1976 page 4. (link) “Abortions, marijuana smoking, supplying arms to some arcane tribe in Angola, that’s none of my damn business.” That is the attitude that Roger L MacBride, 46, believes to be generally popular across the United States as he campaigns for the presidency on the Libertarian party ticket.
He contends that while people don’t always vocalize a laissez-faire and power-to-the-individual outlook, it is present today as it was in the frontier days of the old West. But while present, it is stifled by moral restrictions that America’s superego, the Calvinist Doctrine, supplies. “We’re anti-Calvinist,” said MacBride bluntly.
MacBride has been a resident of Charlottesville for the past eight years where he has practiced law, written, and directed the estate of the late Rose Wilder Lane, whose mother wrote the basis for the nationally televised Little House on the Prairie series.
MacBride’s association with Rose Wilder Lane was not dissimilar to Ernest Hemingway’s association with Gertrude Stein. MacBride looked to Lane for political wisdom and inspiration much as Hemingway learned of the art of writing from Stein.
MacBride met Lane when he was a reporter in Oklahoma during a summer vacation from Winston University. She knew such diverse political figures as Herbert Hoover and Trotsky, and they spent much time together and developed a warm friendship.
When she died, she had named MacBride executor of her estate, which was considerable. Today, MacBride, who owns a DC-3 which he uses for business and campaigning, has solidified his political past into an active belief in the Libertarian party. It is important to realize that a vote for the libertarians is a vote for a government that would be opposed to government, or at least, government as we know it now.
The libertarians would like to see more emphasis on individual freedom, no restrictive moral laws, and a governmental body whose only function is the administration of the most essential welfare programs and defense against foreign aggression and internal disruption.
In essence, libertarianism means a desanctification of the state and a “don’t tread on me” attitude. “The libertarians don’t believe in the cozy relationships between big business and the federal government, corporation coddling, and we’ve had enough of it,” said MacBride.
He spoke of “utter abolition” of such agencies as the CIA, adding “we should beef up the Defense Intelligence Agency and not have clandestine operations at all.”
On foreign policy, MacBride says simply that there should be a non-interventionist policy. He said that a working, growing, successfully free nation is the best defense against communism.
“The ideology of Lenin says basically that the spread of communism would not be successful with the outright militarism. They will try to win from within us,” he said.
McBride said without such ventures as Angola, which he terms “only a geographically marked reality,” Vietnam, and the general pattern of outdated Wilsonian foreign-policy, “we could save half of the hundred and $12 billion defense budget.”
On taxes, the fuel of such massive programs as defense, McBride said, “I would take a meat axe to federal spending, reducing taxes. I would do away with welfare, except for those who could not work: we couldn’t pull the chair out from underneath all welfare people just because of Franklin Roosevelt’s doings. We would give them an alternative chair… a free economy.” He decries wage and price controls.
“If you would like to take your perfectly good car and turn it into a taxicab just to earn some extra bucks, you would have to get a license, take tests, pay taxes, and on and on, but you shouldn’t have to. You should be free enough to work on your own, and let the customer determine the quality instead of an expensive government bureaucracy,” said MacBride.
He admires private citizens like Ralph Nader, who are showing the public defects in governmentally approved market items constantly. “The government lulls people into a feeling of safety,” he added. MacBride’s party, which stresses what could be termed responsible anarchy, requires a vastly new psychology from Americans: “we aren’t psychologically prepared now,” he said, “but we have to start somewhere. It’s clearly time for a change.”
To effect these changes, the libertarians are working with approximately $2 million in their treasury. “We don’t need as much money as the Democrats and the Republicans because our platform stands out clearly, while they have to pay to differentiate between themselves,” McBride said, adding with a smile, “wealth is always three weeks from our door.”
Mail-order requests for contributions are the most common way the libertarians have of raising funds. Their funding is sufficient for them to have opened a headquarters office in Washington DC, where MacBride’s staff cooperates with Eugene MacCarthy’s campaigning team.
“Gene should have been the winner in ’68, and we wouldn’t have had Nixon and the rest of that mess. While I don’t see eye-to-eye with him (MacCarthy), I think he’s a great man.” He added that contacts acquired through MacCarthy have aided in his campaign.
The Libertarian party’s cry for laissez-faire and individual freedom does not include an official stance on such delicate issues as abortions. [False! Link ]
MacBride believes, that abortion should be left up to the woman and her doctor, following the Supreme Court’s restrictions on timing. [1976 Libertarian Platform plank language: “We further support the repeal of all laws restricting voluntary birth control or the right of the woman to make a personal moral choice regarding the termination of pregnancy.”] (history link)
When asked why he thought abortion was such a major issue in this year’s presidential campaign, he said, “I’ll be damned if I could answer you, but I’ll tell you this: I was giving a speech one night in the Midwest, and after the speech this man came up to me and said he agreed with me 100%, then he asked me what I thought of abortion, and when I told him I felt it should be up to the individual and not the state, he said he couldn’t vote for me.”
MacBride and his running mate, David Bergland, 40, a California lawyer, realized that it would be a longshot for them to win in ’76, but, said MacBride, we are going to run in 32 or 39 states and hope people will see the other choice they have.” (The Cavalier Daily 20FEB1976 4)
The Libertarian Party candidates did indeed WIN again in 1976, just as the we WON in 1972. It is true that the entrenched looter parties got more votes than we did, but the purpose of the Libertarian Party back then was to increase freedom, that is, reduce coercion. In 1976 the LP earned 4600% more votes than in the previous election–forty-six times a many votes.
The slope of the trendline in original scale is 88.8 degrees! The loss of votes from frustrated girl-bullying males was clearly dwarfed by the votes gotten from women. Women had for the first time in history enjoyed four years of increased individual rights, thanks to the Libertarian plank the Supreme Court copied into Roe v Wade the month the first Libertarian electoral vote was counted. The 1972 LP campaign freed women of coercion into involuntary servitude by laws written by Anthony Comstock and the New York Book-Burning Society of 1873–year of the Financial Panic by that name. Yet the backlash from disrupting that 100-year reign of hateful superstition arrived with the infiltration of the Republican Party by a smaller, harder, angrier bunch of race-suicide mystical conservatives herding Ronald Reagan ahead of their coercive platform. Ayn Rand had something to say about that.
About Reagan: “A man who claims to defend rights and objects to the right to have an abortion, who wants to dictate to a woman in the most intimate, crucial and tragic issue of their time–that’s no defender of rights and no defender of capitalism.” Ayn Rand

I tried out for mathematics at UTexas, Austin. Some of the stuff they made us do was so tedious and intricate that sample problems were welcomed as hawsers attaching the theories to practical reality. Few have read my 2007 Live and Let Live causality analysis between small party spoiler vote clout and changes in laws and Amendments to the Constitution.(link) Fewer still understand the relationship, despite the graphs, pictures and arrows and audio recording of that simplest of practical expositions. But persistence pays, so here goes another example of how small party planks plus a tiny yet persistent percentage of spoiler votes and minor offices leveraged MAJOR changes in the Constitution and laws of the nation and its States. Changing laws with votes is WINNING.
After the People’s Party–advocating Communist platform plank 2–got 9% of the vote in 1892, both halves of the entrenched Kleptocracy struggled to block further penetration of alien ideology. Republicans enjoyed power to impose prohibitive tariffs and invade foreign lands. Their ranks swelled with pietistic altruists eager to burn books and put women and their doctors on chain-gangs for mentioning human reproductive functions in print. Democrats had lost their slaves, resorted to terror to successfully stop freedpeople from casting votes, but accomplished little else. It was among failed agrarians and northern collectivists that German communism found fertile urban and agrarian ground in Postbellum America, so the People’s Party grafted itself onto the Democrats.
Business and banking had crumbled from Comstock‘s 1873 through late 1879, crashed again 1889-1884 and recovered somewhat during Grover Cleveland’s victory over sumptuary laws. Population and silver production increased faster than gold, so money was tight; teetotalers blamed liquor and elected Benjamin Harrison (R).(link) Dry and Looter parties each won over 5 times the vote difference between the entrenched parties when Cleveland won again in 1892, with the Populists getting 9% of the vote and helping wreck the economy with an income tax. Republican dry fanatics and gold bugs doubled down and got McKinley elected. It became clear during Eugene Victor Debs’ early career that elections were decided by Prohibition Party and Populist-Socialist-Marxist spoiler votes–much like today. Both entrenched Kleptocracy parties acted to keep insurgents from upsetting their plans with outcome-shuffling spoiler votes–just like today. Here’s how it played out in terms of increasing vote share for Socialist Eugene Victor Debs.
To break the impasse, small partisans demanded equal suffrage for men and women. They went after the sneaky insertion of “male” into the 14th Amendment, which poisoned the 13th and 15th as far as women were concerned. Women’s Suffrage activists managed to bring the sidelined half of the adult population into the affray as volunteers and boosters. Some entrenched State parties copied the plank. But Prohibitionists and Socialists (it’s hard to discover which) wuz there fustest with the mostest and their vote share bloomed anew. Still, the number of voters hardly changed from 1900 to 1912, thanks to entrenched Kleptocracy strategies to strangle upstarts in the crib. Debs did not run in the wartime election, in which all communistic parties together got less than his 1912 vote tally. But the 19th Amendment was gaining State ratifications in the summer of 1919.
Amid the booming population, the socialist vote fast outstripped the entrenched “communism of pelf” as war and 19th Amendment agitation slipstreamed the communist income tax back into action while jerking the dentures out of male politicians’ privilege of electing U.S. senators. Women voters no longer needed the Socialists in 1920. Guided by Pauline Sabine, women would in 1932 save the nation from the accelerating collapse brought on by fanatical enforcement of the Harrison and Volstead prohibition laws. After Franklin Roosevelt got alcohol bans repealed, many Republicans supported the National Socialist dictator Herbert Hoover’s policies of July 1931 had brought to power Over There in Germany. For 20 more years, few even tried to elect a Republican prohibitionist to the Executive Mansion.
Thanks and a tip of the hat to the late Kurt Vonnegut Jr for calling attention to Indiana politician Eugene Victor Debs.
Good Reading: INSTRUÇÕES PARA O FORMULÁRIO DE ASILO i589: Como preencher pedido de asilo nos EUA. Okay, I never said it was exciting reading. (link) This is a Kindle file readable in Brazilian Portuguese on a cellphone or tablet. I translated the instructions for applying for political asylum, suspension of removal or protection under the Geneva Convention against torture, which I hired two colleagues to correct and edit. The Catch-22 is that the actual asylum form, downloadable at no cost from government websites, has to be filled out in English. Brazilians with imperfect command of English find this an invaluable aid in understanding what the questions are asking.

Lincoln’s Republican Party died with him, replaced by Comstockist book-burning societies. Voters saw through this and reacted, but Comstock “republicans” still held the troops with bayonets and power to stop citizens from voting. The 13th Amendment was recast by White Supreme male judges to only extend suffrage to some black males. Compare that to what was written after the war to Save the Customs Union:
14A: All persons born or naturalized in the United States… are citizens of the United States and of the State. 15A: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. By leaving out SEX, the door was left open for men with guns and billy clubs to ramrod women into prison for daring to vote or run for office.(link) With disenfranchisement legitimized by the White Supreme Court, it was but a small step to expand that to racial collectivist Jim Crow legislation and laws denying suffrage to ANYONE who dared to stand up to a superstitious usurpation imposed at gunpoint. The trick was to use definitions to finish chiseling away the antislavery amendment and restoring the original prewar language in Article Four, Section Two, Clause Three. That’s the part that tells U.S. Marshals to help Slave States and their bounty hunters to hunt down fugitives from enslavement, defined as Service or Labor.
Bodily ejecting uppity blacks and females from polling booths was promptly redefined as “not really” disenfranchisement. Comstock Laws lustily redefined writings as “disloyal” or as “obscenity.”(link) Soon, enslaving youth into the trenches of the World War to Enforce the Hague Opium Convention was redefined as “not really” slavery. Laws enacted at China’s request redefined trade and production as “traffic” to create victimless “crime.”(link)
By the time the Harrison Act and Constitutional Amendment defining potions, wineries and breweries as “traffic” had wrecked the economy, addictive narcotics, non-habit-forming stimulants and harmless hemp had replaced much of the recreational market. Republican attempts to again export sumptuary coercion to drug-exporting Germany backfired as before. Big Pharma subsidized Christian National Socialism and got Adolf Hitler installed as Chancellor of the Reich. This was good? (link)
Most of Prohibition was replaced by FDR and New Deal Reconstruction. Brewers and Distillers reinvested profits by hiring politicians and advertisers to declare “Reefer Madness” the new national emergency. This was replacement for the “Cocaine Negroes” emergency used in 1914 to secure passage of Francis Harrison’s “Trade Restrictions Act.” Madness gave the pretext in 1936 for again shrieking “traffic” and hauling out the pistols, manacles and truncheons to “do something” about that unfair competition. Not for long would plant leaves kick sand in poor little Beelzebubba’s beer!
So after thousands of man-years of prison terms for youth, felony plant leaf laws keep those same skeptical people from voting a half-century after the Nixon-Reagan war on Woodstock Nation. Observe that the Beatles-albums-burning Solid South that voted for George Wallace is where prohibitionism replaces democracy with jail cells. Now would be a good time to either donate libertarian or move someplace more civilized, register and vote.(link) More: (link)
Good Reading: The War Below: The Story of Three Submarines That Battled Japan, by James Scott.(link) One of the facts disclosed is how easily submarines smuggled cargo–everything from weapons, fuel, ammunition, explosives, men and materiél–past armed and eager enemy blockades. Nor was this news in 1916, when the Deutschland carried a hefty load of goods to the neutral United States in 1916. It makes you wonder about how Rum Row turned a profit 12 miles off the coast during Prohibition. After all, 97% of U.S: alcohol demand was met by brewing and distilling corn sugar. Only 3% in all could have come from Canada, Mexico and Rum Row ships–but what if those floating contraband stores were also selling drugs the government made disappear in 1914. If so, how did those supplies arrive?

The Bush Jr Administration selectively killed American women. Graphs in a 2011 Elizabeth Lawton paper show maternal deaths DECREASED after Roe (link)
The death rate then INCREASED after George was awarded Florida’s electoral votes after losing the popular vote. In his two terms before his faith-based, prohibitionist asset-forfeiture Crash of 2008, the maternal death rate for FOREIGN-born women increased by 2 (per 100k)–from 10.3 to 12.3. Meanwhile, the death rate for AMERICAN-born women rose by 6.5–from 7 to 13.5! Bullying and coercing women is clearly NOT the panacea for race-suicide alarmists terrified of Being Replaced by folks better adapted to move away from and survive mystical coercion.

Good reading: THE INEVITABLE CRIMES OF CELIBACY, the Vices of Convents and Monasteries, Priests and Nuns by Thomas E. Watson. Free from Gutenberg.org (link) George Orwell dismissively mentioned some of the topics covered here, so no way could I resist a closer look. I stumbled upon the tome prompted by a reason.com article. It turns out the book agrees with many of Lysander Spooner’s positions. Here are the first few lines: When any species of wrong-doing can wear the disguise of righteousness, the blindest among us can see how dangerous that kind of crime may become—how hard to prove, punish and put down. There are immense Arabian plains where nomad robbers have practised their profession, from a time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary; yet those plains and the nomad bands that pitch their tents beneath the Oriental sun remain very much as they were in the days of Abraham. But where robbery has disguised itself as Law, and one class has aimed the law-making machine at the others, saying “Stand and deliver!” whole regions have become deserts, and great peoples have been blotted out. In fact, the highwayman, the cattle-lifter and the pickpocket have never in the least affected the destinies of nations. The pirate and the buccaneer have never been able to destroy the commerce of the seas, beggar provinces, and change noble harbors into neglected pools. It is when the robbers intrench themselves in Parliaments, Reichstags and Congresses, and the robbery takes the form of “Law,” that spoliation becomes destructive. Bank laws and money-contraction laws beat down more victims than armies. (…)
The book also tracks some obscure authors obliquely referenced in Mr Dooley’s meanderings by Finley Peter Dunne. Gutenberg.org accepts donations, by the way.

MAGAts came from cartoons. “Doonesbury, this country is being torn apart! I just can’t stand by and watch it happen! The only answer is resistance!! And I will fight ’till death to make this country great again! I vow it!! –Megaphone Mark, the campus communist, 22DEC1970. See for yourself: https://www.gocomics.com/doonesbury/1970/12/22
This is a bilingual joke for Brazilians. It’s the advice a Bolsonaro vandal took literally on a table in the smashed up Supreme Court building two years after the MAGAt attacks on Congress.
For Americans there is less of a laughing matter involved. Tucked away in the Fourteenth Amendment, the one beginning with “All persons born…” is this pearl within an oyster:
But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
When the perpetrators of January 6 “We Wuz Robbed” vandalism of tax-maintained buildings are rounded up and tried, did that entitle them to “a free lawyer” at the expense of a State or Federal Government? The Fourteenth Amendment literally says no. Calvin Coolidge denied the validity of any law or statute contradicting the explicit terms of the Constitution. Why should frustrated girl-bulliers get government-funded defense lawyers after attacking and vandalizing the building in which their Fuhrer was defeated in the electoral vote count after having been defeated a second time in the popular vote count? Coolidge questioned this:
“For any part of our inhabitants to observe such parts of the Constitution as they like, while disregarding others is a doctrine that would break down all protection of life and property and destroy the American system of ordered liberty.” [Calvin Coolidge message to Congress, December 7, 1926]
In a meeting 02NOV1923 with reporters Coolidge was as adamant about giving in to England’s protests about warships and ocean liners being confiscated over grog rations and restaurant bars and wine lists. Rum Row, the floating Free Trade Zone for liquor and drugs was at the time being forced from three miles to twelve miles offshore.
PRESS: Mr. President, some of the editorial writers seem to think that the proposed treaty would contravene the Constitution–not the Volstead Law, but the Constitution itself. Do you believe it within the power of the government to make a treaty that would contravene the Constitution itself? PRESIDENT COOLIDGE: Of course not. The only power the government has to make a treaty comes from the Constitution, and there wouldn’t be any question about it, for any treaty that might be made, that was contrary to the provisions of the Constitution, would be absolutely void.
Vandals interfering in elections with violent criminal mischief might easily NOT be entitled to reach into your pocket or mine to pay off defense attorneys. What would the MAGAts packing the Supreme Court say to that?

This 5-yr Tesla stock chart shows that on 05NOV2021, the day word of MAGA Supreme Court plans to look at the Texas Senate Bill 8 Abortion Ban hit The Texas Tribune, Tesla stock went from rising to falling.(link) Tesla Tanking in Trading is now WAY too obvious for anyone to ignore.(link) What happened?
My theory is a boycott. The Republican party platform has since 1976 called for a constitutional amendment to again strip women of individual rights upon conception. Before the Civil War, forced sex and childbirth were routine for black women held under Southern slavery. (link) For five decades I have voted against Republican candidates and refused to buy products their abettors sell. Boycotting is a way to keep economic power from being spent on coercive political power. Nor is this anything new in political economy.(link) The Boston Tea Party was a boycott. Nations have prohibition laws because China boycotted the US back in 1905 for that purpose (not as futile retaliation for the renewed Geary Act). WW1 was caused in part by revolutionary China successfully closing its ports to opium dumping in 1911-12, causing a glut in the Balkans.
Pushback against Republican Party prohibitionism and Jew-baiting automakers also included boycotts. In June 1929, Henry Ford discussed prohibition with President Hoover, then stepped in front of the White House to announce: “Prohibition is here to stay. Absolute enforcement must come. Nobody wants to fly with a drunken aviator.” Ford claimed the dry law made high wages possible in mid-Depression 1931, after other countries withdrew money and sold off U.S. stocks to avoid taxes on drug profits. Less than a month later, on 02MAY1931 the NYT reported that “Milwaukee county officials refuse to buy Fords because of Henry Ford’s dry stand.” So why would women–and libertarian-minded men who believe women have inalienable individual rights–hesitate to boycott an automaker allied with Republican efforts to have women enslaved on conception?
People again boycotted Fords after Hitler praised Henry in Mein Kampf and Nazis pinned a medal on his chest for his collaboration.(link) Musk is photographed licking the blacking off of Trump’s shoes before and after the MAGA court overturned the Libertarian plank that was ROE.(link) Lately, as Argentina’s anarco-fascist imitation “libertarian” (link) and Brazil’s ousted christiano-fascist are photographed pumping Elon Musk’s hand, why the surprise that women of all colors are boycotting re-enslavement by wielding The Almighty Dollar? (link)
Think about it. Tesla stockholders are clearly experiencing a dawning of comprehension! Investers suddenly understand the sunk investment fallacy, are dropping those Tesla stock anvils to the bottom of the Lake of Losses and swimming ashore.(link)
LibertarianSpoiler votes work a lot like boycotts where results matter. This is why Republicans and German descendants of National Socialist billionaires lavishly funded a hostile takeover of the Libertarian Party by the Alabama-based Mises Institute with their infiltrated girl-bullier caucus. Here’s a link to a typical Mises article postulating that it’s much better for Ku-klux States to strip women of individual rights than for federal courts to recognize pregnant women as individuals and enforce their Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.(link)
The MISES article bragging about policies imported from Hitler’s Austria appeared a year almost to the day after the MAGA-packed Court began reassessing whether women can be forced at gunpoint into involuntary reproductive labor.(link) Many of those fortunes were amassed precisely by stripping Jews–male and female alike–of individual rights, forcing them to labor and retiring them at death camps. Elon might have been the American version of Quandt, Krupp or von Finck.(link) Too bad he and his stockholders hitched their wagon to the Trump, Bolsonaro, Milei and von Mises (link) versions of resurgent pronatalist Comstockism.(link) *-*-*
Good Reading, lest we forget: The Nazi Billionaires, by David De Jong. “In 1946, Günther Quandt—patriarch of Germany’s most iconic industrial empire, a dynasty that today controls BMW—was arrested for suspected Nazi collaboration.” Günther’s wife left him for Goebbels long before both poisoned their kids in Hitler’s bunker. (link) The Arms of Krupp, by William Manchester (link) It is shocking to realize that civilian slaves, mostly Jewish, were press-ganged into German National Socialist armaments plants, mines and industry. But terror-imposed slavery obviously was made to work for Christian National Socialism, as this book shows in detail. Hell’s Cartel, the making of Hitler’s War machine (link) is another informative look at the spreading influence of Theodore Roosevelt’s race suicide theories for criminalizing recalcitrant women.(link)
