In this episode, I sit down with Asher for a wide‑ranging conversation about the United States’ “organic laws” and how he believes they can be used by individuals to assert their freedoms. From the Declaration of Independence to the Articles of Confederation, the Northwest Ordinance, and the Constitution, Asher walks through his interpretations of Article VI, oaths of office, and the difference he sees between “The United States of America” and “The United States.” He also shares personal stories from his time fighting charges, why he avoids entering courts “across the bar,” and how he uses public notices and “proof of life” filings to challenge jurisdiction. We field listener questions on national emergencies and the Constitution, the idea of “Constitution‑free zones,” admiralty and maritime claims, flags and gold fringe, jury trials, and remedies. Asher outlines why he sees the Northwest Ordinance as still operative, discusses Ex parte Milligan, treaties including Paris (1783) and Ghent (1814), and offers his approach to engaging local officials—emphasizing due diligence, self‑education, and peaceful assertion of rights. As always, do your own research and consult qualified counsel where appropriate. 'Declaration of Independence' (National Archives): https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcript 'Articles of Confederation' (National Archives): https://www.archives.gov/milestone-docs/articles-of-confederation 'Northwest Ordinance (1787)' (Our Documents, National Archives/NEH/NARA): https://www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?doc=8 'U.S. Constitution (transcript)' (National Archives): https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript 'U.S. Code: Titles and Front Matter' (Office of the Law Revision Counsel): https://uscode.house.gov/ 'Constitution Annotated' (Legal Information Institute overview): https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution '18 U.S.C. § 7 — Special maritime and territorial jurisdiction' (LII): https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/7 'Ex parte Milligan, 71 U.S. 2 (1866)' (LII): https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/71/2 'Treaty of Paris (1783)' (National Archives milestone overview): https://www.archives.gov/milestone-docs/treaty-of-paris 'Treaty of Ghent (1814)' (Our Documents): https://www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?doc=20 'The Federalist Papers' (Library of Congress guide): https://guides.loc.gov/federalist-papers 'Army Regulation 840-10: Flags, Guidons, Streamers, Tabards, and Automobile and Aircraft Plates' (Army Publishing Directorate): https://armypubs.army.mil/ 'DuckDuckGo' (search engine referenced): https://duckduckgo.com/&nb
