Founding Daddies
This Founding Father was drippy. He invented the Treasury department and beefed with Thomas Jefferson on the daily.
Alexander Hamilton
This part of the Constitution is the intro song to the banger that is U.S. democracy.
Preamble
These three branches form the government’s holy trinity (no cap).
Legislative, Executive, and Judicial Branches
You do this in November if you’re 18+, and no, liking a political meme doesn’t count.
Voting
This amendment basically said, “If it ain’t federal, it’s state business now.”
10th Amendment
They didn't call it this back then but the US straight up soft-launched independence with this 1776 doc.
Declaration of Independence
The Constitution can be changed, but only with this ✨ extremely difficult ✨ process.
Amendment process
This branch writes the laws, and occasionally writes ✍️ drama in Congress too.
Legislative
This unpaid group project happens when you get summoned and can’t say “no thanks.”
Jury Duty
This power lets states run their own DMV horror stories and marriage license chaos.
Reserved Powers
This squad of 55 dudes ghostwrote the Constitution. Spoiler alert: No womenm, no chill, and there were a whole lot of waistcoats.
Framers of the Constitution or Constitutional Convention
This thing starts with “We the people…” and honestly? Iconic.
Constitution
his branch is led by a dude with a desk in the Oval Office and nuclear codes on speed dial.
Executive
18-year-old guys must do this in case Uncle Sam decides to throw a party (with tanks).
Register for the Selective Service
This person runs the state but is not your president — chill, Karen.
Governor
This document was the U.S.'s first flop era — it gave too much power to the states and no vibes to Congress.
Articles of Confederations
This amendment was like “free speech, but also hold my beer.”
First Amendment
This branch is like the final boss — it decides if laws are valid or just vibes.
Judicial
Paying these is your least favorite adulting task, unless you like roads and libraries.
Taxes
This local version of Congress is where Karen complains about zoning laws.
State Legislature
This person is called the “Father of the Constitution,” but it’s giving “main character energy.”
James Madison
This term means the Supreme Court can cancel laws like it's on a toxic ex cleanse.
Judicial Review
This system makes sure one branch doesn’t turn into a full-blown villain origin story.
Checks and balances
Respecting the laws might sound boring, but it beats jail time.
Obeying The Law
States and the feds both tax you — it’s called this, and no, you don’t get a discount.
