Just got done reading through Chapter LXII: 'An act to provide a government for the District of Columbia' Feb 12, 1871. from the minutes of the 41st Congress of the United States of America.

Relevant portions:
Sec 1: "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Unitied States of America in Congress assembled, That all that part of the territory of the Unitied States included within the limits of the District of Columbia be, and the same is hereby, created into a government by the name of the District of Columbia, by which name it is hereby constituded a body corporate for municipal purposes, and may contract and be contracted with, sue and be sued, plead and be impleaded, have a seal, and exercise all other powers of a municipal corporation not inconsistent with the Constitution and laws of the Unitied States and the provisions of this act."
Translation for TLDR and ignorant shill idiots:
The Congress of the United States declares that a certain part of the United States, specifically the District of Columbia, was thereby both created and named: The District of Columbia. This District has a municipal government (is a city like any other), and is NOT INCOMPATIBLE NOR SUPERIOR to the United States of America or the Constitution and laws of the same.
Sec 31: "… The governor, secretary and other officers to be appointed pursuant to this act shall, before they act as such, respectively, take and subscribe and oath or affirmation before a judge of the supreme court of the District of Columbia,…(Goes on to list others who can administer the oath.)… to support the Constitution of the Unitied States and faithfully discharge the duties of their respective offices."
Translation:
The District of Columbia and all its officials are subservient to the Unitied States and the Constitution.
Sec 34: "… and the Constitution and all the laws of the United States, which are not locally inapplicable, shall have the same force and effect within the said District of Columbia as elsewhere within the United States."
Translation:
The District of Columbia is the same as any other city in the rest of the country. It is subservient to the laws and Constitution of the United States.
TLDR: The United States is not a Corporation. There are not two Constitutions in effect. We are not a vassal state of England. There is no difference between "United States" and "UNITED STATES". Everything else being spewed about this is a shill slide.
Baker, Please, for the love of Kek, Stop including this nonsense in notables.
