Well the fact that RAP/TRAP wasn't about pushing folks to look at the original jurisdiction is telling. Also, it might be worth viewing any attempt to form a state named "Republic of Maine" or "Maine Republic" (a name) in the U.S. State of Maine in light of a Civil War issue concerning West Virginia statehood and other Virginia-related state formation issues at the start of the Civil War: Statehood for West Virginia: An Illegal Act? A key significance of the article is how an attempt to thwart Virginia secession was made by reforming a State of Virginia or something like that and how that led to West Virginia--as in the legal mechanics.
Consider the notion of the U.S. Department of Justice having been established (in 1870 or 1871) for a single and exclusive purpose: prosecution of war (i.e. the Civil War and subsequent wars).
Consider for lucidity's sake that a proper conservator of the peace might simply assert the law while a soldier in the field (military-revenue district) operating under rules of war might feel free to use (tRAPs/RuS#Es) deception and ruses (short of actual perfidy--or so we'd like to believe). TT's attempt to put a Christian orthodox twist on the Federal Zone makes little sense if you perceive it as a container for the stranger.
Their insistence on having a capital for "the" Republic or restoring "the" Republic is a noisy fart in the face of original jurisdictions. You hear nothing of the several republics only of a singularity which was never the original arrangement--there are various reason I perceived TT being knowingly and willingly involved in creating a false movement: "its a tRAP to get a RAP". From what I could gather he was intercepting reports of actual, valid lawful remedy and creating crippled sound-alike false remedies in order to put bad taste in the mouth of police in order to conspire against lawful remedy and piss police off. From what I gather now, that he may have been doing that with FBI assistance is simply disdainful. I simply fail to recall sh#t disturbing being a power, right or duty of any officer of the United States.
