Mr. Blackman, I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting these lectures and classes online. It helps people like me who are very interested in the judicial branch but can't afford to take a ConLaw class.

Mr. Blackman, thank you so much. Awesome understanding of our constitution. Would love to sit in and observe sometime.

[@abdulknowles3020]

Thank you, Josh! This was a great lecture and introduction. Due to the length of the video, I thought I would need to listen to this over two days but I sat and listened in one sitting. You’re a great professor.

Why is this video marked for being "upsetting"

[@edozieakunyili6207]

In answer to the Student Question? I think UAE sort of works like a confederacy but ruled by a Shiek/Monarch and a Parliament

[@sarmadali3895]

Does anyone have the pdf of the book available?

[@jameszeris5418]

She JFK speech 1963 at the Waldorf Astoria signed an executive order to get rid of the Federal Reserve Josh if you have time look into how much that would save the taxpayers from the private bank would we still need a lot of income tax? I’m curious what the numbers come out to be?

[@runtoth3abyss]

The federal reserve is self funded from the interest rates. It costs tax payers zero dollars to run

[@kaseyhunt411]

Amazing

We are worse off now than before the war for independence. There’s a reason they don’t teach True American history.
“A nation that expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, expects what never was and never will be.” - Thomas Jefferson

[@dragonchr15]

56.21....it says "excluding Indians not taxed"

Yes
