A treaty signed by the President and approved by two-thirds of the Senate does not fall under the limits of the United States Constitution. If my understanding is still correct, a treaty signed by any country could bring states into the Union.
Say maybe exactly a hundred of them.
Then if my distant memories of lecturing in constitutional and international law are accurate, and if those senators voted the right way, which is just about guaranteed, the President and a foreign country he picked would exercise a dictatorship in the US.
And there is ample precedent for this in the congresses that adopted the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments.
The Nazis took over Germany constitutionally. They evoked the emergency provisions which were already in the Weimar Constitution. Hitler bragged that his referenda were the last elections Germany would have for a thousand years. But the Weimar Emergency Clauses set no time limit.
The Bricker Amendment was proposed to force treaties to conform to the Constitution. This was stopped by the left, just as it was the left which set the precedents for a congress changing fundamental law by a minority of the real vote.
I even found that law students were often unaware of the extra constitutional power of treaties.
I wonder how many law students today could tell you the one provision of the United States Constitution which cannot be amended?
Superstition has it that when we begin to seize anti-white assets they will simply go abroad. In Rhodesia during sanctions, one the main sports was moving money around. I remember it well.
The main problem with hiding money is its definition. Money is defined as an instrument which is identified as money. Not identifiable, IDENTIFIED. You are trying to secretly move something which everybody knows is money.
Even with cooperation of the banking systems of South Africa and Portugal it was very hard to move Rhodesian money into the international monetary system. And we’re talking thousands of dollars.
Paper constitutions do not make countries. Paper provisions do not make basic systems.
When a country changes fundamentally, the paperwork necessary to suit the new country is no problem.

Let’s face it, “America” is not a Nation. It is not a National State in any meaningful sense of the term!

The only solution is Local Socialism.

So is this Treaty technique something we should fear being used by the Anti-Whites, or is it something WE can use in hunting down all the Anti-White money in the future?

I had to look it up.
The only current, expressly unamendable clause in the Constitution is found at the end of Article V, that “…no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.”

“When a country changes fundamentally, the paperwork necessary to suit the new country is no problem.” – Bob
That is why we are seeing Respectable Conservatives beginning to RATIFY amnesty for 12-20 million illegal immigrants.
Anti-whites will say, “See, even Hard-line Conservatives like Hannity agree that amnesty is Moral & Necessary.” Republicans who oppose Party Diversity will be branded whitesupremacistswhowanttodeportpedro.
WE will do what we always do.

The fundamental change is that the motto has been flipped.:
E pluribus unum has been flipped.
It is now E unus pluribem.
The surest way to reduce social cohesion and efficiency is to have all sorts of differing people.
The alliance between those who want good social programs and those opposed to internationalist multiculturalism must begin:
Local Socialism (or not, if your locale does not want that)
This is the most esoteric of Bob’s posts yet. He seems to indicate that the time for tyranny is ripe.

Nothing esoteric about Bob’s essay at all. He’s quite clear.
Most “Americans” still live inside the idea that what they ARE is contained in words on a piece of paper.
Superstition has it that what we ARE is limited to what the opinion of the dictators who interpret that paper SAY.
When a nation changes fundamentally, which is a way of saying when the PEOPLE that make up a nation realize that they’re living as slaves in a dictatorship, no amount of words on old paper can stop reality.
Reality always trumps paper, and the paper will be changed to fit reality.
Bob isn’t talking about the time for tyranny being ripe. He’s already told us that tyranny has been here for a long time.
Bob is saying the time for REVOLUTION is ripe, and paperwork is no problem.

Amend last line above to …
Bob is saying that when the time for revolution is ripe, the paperwork will not be a problem.
(Note: revolution not necessarily = violence. Think “inevitable structural change to fit reality”)
(would be nice if we could edit again)

“inevitable structural change to fit reality”
What if the demands of reality increase in standards? If America demands high standards of excellence, then that by itself will clean out pockets of Anti-White activism from the Universities and “proletariats”.
Inefficiency is the enemy of civilization

The Federal Union is nothing more than a treaty between States (Nations) and no treaty lasts forever.
The Federal Government is a lawless out of control White Genocide Murder Machine.
For the sake of our Children the union must be dissolved and the Federal Government must be disbanded.
Now, before it is too late.

One could start pointing to the Articles of Confederation, our FIRST founding document.
It was surreptitiously and illegally supplanted with the current Constitution. They didn’t even have the required signatures to do so as per the AOC. They set an Undemocratic precedent back then by FORCING it through.
And now the consequences of actions such as this and other subsequent nefarious deeds are wreaking havoc on the system Federalists lust after.
Thomas Jefferson, ever the staunch agrarian, was right about The King of Centralized Commerce Alexander Hamilton all along. He was a globalist, sell-out bitch.
Time for Daniel Shays to be reborn.
