The News Current Events and Continuing Education for May 28 through June 10, 2018 “Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.” -James Madison
"There are two distinct classes of men...those who pay taxes and those who receive and live upon taxes." - Thomas Paine C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy! If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen... (Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is No Such Agency!)
Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?
I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?
Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (fifteenth) edition of CtC!

Fear nothing but God *** -Samuel Adams
Friends! The Eleventh Annual Declaration Day Party is less than four weeks away!! It'll be Saturday, June 30, here in beautiful Commerce Twp., Michigan. Get your RSVPs in!! ***
FREE AT LAST!! And, "Just Kidding..." say the malefactors, dropping the perjury demand as a ploy that simply isn't going to pay off. WITH MUCH JOY I PICKED UP MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE at the gates of the federal prison camp in Alderson, West Virginia this past Friday. After five long years of abuse at the hands of deeply corrupt DOJ thugs and co-conspirators in the federal judiciary, Doreen's ordeal is over. The demand that Doreen create false statements that she and I engaged in taxable activities in 2002 and 2003 has been abandoned. This was done in recognition-- at long last-- that Doreen was never going to make these lies. It was also done in recognition of the fact that the effort to compel Doreen to make the false statements wanted so badly by the DOJ Tax Division has simply underscored the government's disastrous PR problem of having no valid basis for every contrary thing it has done since its initial honoring of our refund claims for those years way back in 2003 and 2004. IT IS HARD TO FIND WORDS to adequately describe the despicable criminality of the executive and judicial officers responsible for all that has been done to this good, truly American woman. Beating on her in the hope of shutting me up, or shutting down your defense of the rule of law-- while knowing full well the truth of what they hoped to suppress-- sets the bar of corruption to a new depth. And the way this was accomplished-- especially in terms of judicial contortions-- threatens the rule of law in broad and extremely dangerous ways. If you haven't ever read the petition to the Supreme Court over Doreen's crudely-engineered conviction for refusing to lie under oath at the government's command, you should do so. While you read that petition, keep a firm check on your well-conditioned reflex to ascribe probity and honor to folks simply because they have been graced with black robes and high seats. If you succeed in controlling that reflex, you will end up raising an alarm, wide-eyed, trembling, scared and angry at what you will recognize as a dire threat to your own future security. And that's just as it should be. "As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there's a twilight where everything remains seemingly unchanged, and it is in such twilight that we must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness." -William O. Douglas At the same time, take the oxygen away from these swamp creatures, as the Founders meant for you to do. That is your only defense, short of the sort of tumult all reasonable people would prefer to avoid if possible. Further, taking the oxygen (or blood, or fuel, or whatever you care to call it) away from the swamp-creatures by adherence to the law through the application of the knowledge in CtC is the only solution that ensures the preservation of what has been aptly described as the greatest accomplishment of statecraft ever struck off by the hand of man. And that matters, because we are unlikely to be so astonishingly fortunate a second time. I sorely fear what we would be left with should the American people conclude, in ignorance of the true solution, that the tumult is the only way. You should, too, and you should redouble your efforts to spread the liberating and law-enforcing truth about the tax. “The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.” –Samuel Adam
Set a brushfire-- E-mail this newsletter to a friend 'Bama, Baby! The Yellowhammer state finally squares-up to the inevitable... ...AND DOES THE RIGHT AND HONORABLE THING:
SCOTT HANNON has cracked the wall in The Heart of Dixie. Scott has forced Alabama to acknowledge the truth about the income tax uniquely revealed in CtC and return every penny withheld from him during 2017 and given over to the state for income taxes it now has agreed Scott never owed. This first-time surrender by the state came not before some efforts to evade the truth-- In sharing this first victory in recovering everything, Scott reports having made his first efforts via amended returns for 2015 and 2016, which still have yet to be honored. But this original 2017 claim was answered respectfully by the state government just five weeks after being submitted. Consequently, the "Victory States" map has one of the very few remaining "not yet in compliance" states go green!
(By the way, anyone with unshared victories with any of the remaining five "in denial" states, get them to me, please! There should be no grey in the USA-- only green!!) Needless to say, it's HATS OFF to Scott! Well done!! *** WHILE WE'RE ON THE "VICTORIES" SUBJECT, let's honor a few more folks who have stepped up like all good Americans should... Andrew MacTaggart Andrew has secured a complete refund from the feds of everything withheld in 2017-- which, as shown in his filing, was all FICA taxes (you know, the kind "you can't get back"... unless you're CtC-educated...):
*** David & Dorothy Weeks David and Dorothy share a complete refund of everything sought. This doesn't amount to quite all that was withheld, because the better part of what comes in to their household is David's taxable federal pension. But the IRS recognizes that everything else is outside its reach, and returned every penny:
Here is the filing that produced this victory for the rule of law. *** Bradley & Sheri Edwards Brad and Sheri have shared a recently-secured complete refund from California of everything withheld and given over to the state during 2016:
See Brad and Sheri's claim for the return of this property here. ***
Scott's and Andrew's and David & Dorothy's and Brad & Sheri's victories join those of the tens of thousands of other awakened and activated Americans represented here. Each constitutes another critical step toward the restoration of the Founders republic and the true rule of law. Don't you wish your victories were proudly posted, too? It's easy. Stand up on behalf of the law, and then share the evidence. That's all there is to it!

NOTE: I will still not be engaging in correspondence by any of these alternative, social media means-- those wishing to correspond should continue to use email for this purpose. NOTE II: PLEASE help ensure that others in the CtC community know about this change in newsletter delivery!!

The craziness of the neo-con nutcases in Washington is starting to generate its predictable blowback, but on a much more dangerous scale than in the recent past. Based on relentless hostile rhetoric and steady efforts at military encirclement the Russian Federation Armed Forces Command has concluded that the United States intends to launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack on Russia. While this perception continues to be fed, the risk of a prophylactic Russian first strike exists and grows more perilous. The persistent, recently-escalated, plainly unfounded and deliberately provocative saber-rattling against Iran-- a long-time close ally and buffer-state of Russia's, the destabilization or regime-change within which would be another substantial threat factor-- has magnified the intensity of the peril. So, more than ever...
What You Need To Know If CtC Doesn't Spread Like Wildfire RIGHT NOW So The Nut-Cases Can Be Stripped Of Their Resources: NOT THAT "DUCK AND COVER" would do you or your kids any good, of course... The Russian Federation has 7,400 nuclear warheads and the means to deliver them. China is coming on strong, too, these days. Perhaps you imagine the US has some magical technological advantage that will protect us when all the nut-case bellicosity leads to its inevitable outcome? Read this, this, this, this and this. And in any event, don't forget the inescapable issue of nuclear winter and fallout-- the world-killing harm from either of which doesn't require even a single Russian or Chinese warhead to hit a target. Really, it's this simple:
Spread CtC's revelations like wild-fire.

A Review of CtC by Derek Cushman
You can also find this film at https://vimeo.com/175424277. Regarding Trolleries (Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")
FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Tim Kendrick has posted a video on YouTube regarding donations. I didn't know what to do about it to begin with; I don't do what I do intending for anyone to feel obligated in any way. But of course, no one IS obligated. I will continue to make my work freely-available here, and in my books for only the cost of a cheap paperback. Thus, even though I post it here below, Tim's very thoughtful personal resolution and encouragement to others is just an invitation for consideration by those who may not be conscious of the fact that I can't do what I do without support. No one is to feel any pressure from it; if it moves anyone to act let it be solely because it seems right.

Send it to every journalist you can. It's time to really make something happen. Accompany your emails and posts with with a strong admonishment to watch the film through, and that doing so will show the viewer an individual-empowering, state-restraining truth about the income tax which the government has been trying to keep hidden from view for 75 years and which that person really needs to know.

Media Evasion Of CtC Must End, Now Time, unfortunately, is on the side of the well-funded disinformation specialists class
Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word? SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance: Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same? Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort... *****

PLEASE CONTINUE TO DILIGENTLY SPREAD THE LIBERATING TRUTH ABOUT THE TAX!!!
***** About The Author Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare ‘contributions’ withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in ‘Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America’’ (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students. Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, ‘Upholding the Law And Other Observations’. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan’s largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country. Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm. Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website. On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years. Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book. © All written and graphic material on this page and website are copyrighted by Peter E. Hendrickson, unless otherwise attributed. |
