This is not the US constitution; it used to be, but Article I, part of section 8, & all of sections 9 & 10 have been removed - SLRPNK

Compare with the original, from a few weeks back [https://web.archive.org/web/20250420172353/https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/] Half of section 8, governing Congressional power over the military is removed. Section 9 had, among other things: * Habeas Corpus the right to get a court hearing instead of arbitrary imprisonment * a ban on foreign emoluments for the US officials (eg: payments from foreign governments) Section 10 reserved foreign policy for the federal government instead of the states.

    The modification in section 8 is very deliberate, not just an omission.
