"There are two distinct classes of men...those who pay taxes and those who receive and live upon taxes."

-Thomas Paine

 

You can't understand the present if you don't understand the past...

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

June 19- In 1846, the first baseball game under relatively modern rules is played in Hoboken, New Jersey.  In 1934, the Federal Communications Commission is established.  In 1953, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg are executed for espionage after giving the Soviet Union United States nuclear weapons secrets.  In 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is approved by the Senate, after an 83-day effort to derail it by filibuster.  In 2012, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is compelled to seek asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, lest he be seized by British authorities (as happened in 2019) and turned over to the United States for a kangaroo court trial and long imprisonment as punishment for his role in revealing to the American people (and the rest of the world) many of the crimes of many of the denizens of Washington, DC.

 

Anniversaries of interest for each day of this week will be found throughout the newsletter below.

 

NOTE: I don't even try to include in these anniversary compilations items involved in the "COVID-19" scam, hysteria and exploitation. There would be way too much to say about all that to suit this format. But find my summary of that history, and related observations posted throughout 2020 and 2021, here.

HEY, People!

Please don't just read what I post here (or anywhere), and nod your head sagely or approvingly and then move on to other things. I don't post in order to affirm your sense of things. I post in order to equip you with perspectives and arguments with which to educate others, and in the expectation that you will forward my posts to other people (or direct them to those posts). PLEASE do those things, especially in recognition of the fact that my posts are heavily suppressed. They will NOT get out if you don't get them out.

Remember, we won't win by only YOU knowing what I present. We will win by LOTS OF OTHERS knowing what I present.

Why Tucker Carlson Got Fired

...the message to take therefrom; and a celebration of some good Americans who have taken that message to heart.

IF YOU'VE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION over the last few years, you already know this answer to my title's implicit question: Tucker Carlson did NOT get fired from Fox News for telling lies. Quite the contrary. Carlson got fired for telling the truth.

The core lesson from that fact is usefully derived from a famous declaration attributed (perhaps inaccurately, but surely as a fit and well-grounded homage) to George Orwell: "In a time of deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."

That lesson is that when truth draws disapprobation and suppression from the powerful, and is demonstrated thereby to be a threat to an agenda, the agenda must be evil.

Further, in our particular circumstances today, when the truth is being faced with suppression are little more than statements and observations of what until yesterday had been the views of the majority (and very likely remain so, as suggested by the relevant ratings for Carlson and others singing from the same hymnal), it must be recognized that it is the deceit that is the revolutionary act-- and that is the most important thing to understand.

We ARE in a moment of revolution. It is a revolution being perpetrated against Western Civilization and its moral and legal underpinnings which had for the past several hundred years been slowly but surely triumphing over the barbarisms universal in the world before its ascendancy, and producing unprecedented liberty, security and prosperity.

To put a finer point on it, there is a coup being perpetrated against liberty and the rule of law, and nowhere more vigorously and dangerously than here in America. The plotters have largely taken control of America's schools and are exploiting that critical bridgehead thoroughly. Likewise, they occupy positions of power in government and financial institutions, and have infiltrated many corporate boardrooms as well as mainstream media organizations and the entertainment industry.

The corruption and co-option has penetrated deeply and dangerously into the federal government, especially. The FBI, CIA, NSA, DHS, DOJ and all the administrative agencies are bent and have become tools of the assault. The military is subverted, with dissidents to the coup targeted or purged. Many state and local police departments are being similarly "tuned up", at the same time that local district attorneys have been unraveling painstakingly-erected safeguards of society against crime and corruption, all with the consequence-- whether deliberate or not-- of destabilizing the country.

Cultural madness of grittier varieties infects large swaths of the population, with its victims cynically embraced by the coup-regime in order to create a cadre of mentally-broken but fanatically-motivated and intimidating Praetorian "brownshirt" weapons. (See this and this.)

All of this is just a sampling of the pathologies that have been nurtured in American society by its enemies. We could also speak of the stridently-encouraged and profoundly-divisive delusion of systemic racism and false historical revisionism on its behalf.

I know I am saying nothing unknown to most of those reading these words. But I think that these things need to be constantly repeated in order to keep this critically-important realization in the forefront of our minds, rather than being pushed off the page by the endless series of distractions thrown into the air like sand at our eyes by the coup plotters and the not insignificant portion of the American people who are so far somehow oblivious to the systemic assault (or in willful denial).

We cannot afford to let anything but this attack, and our battle against it, to be front and center until it has been utterly defeated.

HAPPILY, FOR THE MOMENT, CARLSON, who is a very important voice of truth, has landed on another platform, drawing even more viewership than during his stint as the most-watched cable pundit in history. I recommend all of his presentations from that platform to everyone's studious attention.

Still, Tucker Carlson is just one voice, however well-grounded, fearless and articulate. EVERYBODY on the correct side of all of this needs to raise his or her voice and do the counter-revolutionary act of speaking the truth.

Not everyone can draw huge audiences, but everyone can influence someone. Further, everyone can definitely take control of the degree to which he or she contributes resources to the enemies of truth.

On a small scale that withholding of support should extend to never again having Fox News on any screen in your home at any time. These enemies of the truth should be driven from our midst.

On a more profound and significant scale, every American should make their contribution of resources to co-opted or co-conspiring governmental actors by participation in the "income" excise a conscious, well-informed decision. Doing any less is a capitulation to an assault on the rule of law that has been ongoing for decades and has set the stage for today's effort to plunge the knife into America's vitals, and it also means mindlessly financing those wielding that knife.

It is for each person to decide independently whether such support for their enemies is really their desire. But I think that few who take the dutiful steps to inform such decisions with the relevant facts will choose that way. Most will stand with the rule of law and say, "No. HELL no!!"

Such real American grown-ups are thick on the ground, but only a relative few have the gumption to stand up and be counted (and an understanding of the enormous power of such forthrightness). Let's celebrate and applaud a few of these heroes who have recently shared victories in upholding the law and imposing restraint on the corrupted state:

Raquel Van de Venter

RAQUEL HAS SECURED a complete refund of everything taken from her against the possibility that her work in 2022 was a taxable "income" activity.

Here is Raquel's federal check:

You'll notice that the amount of the check includes interest. This is due to the IRS delaying the refund by first challenging the claim with two speedbumps.

The first speedbump was a "LTR12C" trying to suggest that there was an issue with the amount of withholding reported. This is a cheap ploy occasionally trotted out by the IRS in the hope of confusing and/or intimidating the filer of a return the government would really rather not see. This corrupt ploy is discussed more fully here.

The second IRS speedbump came in the form of an identity challenge by way of a "LTR5701C". See more on that one here, and see the return by which this victory for the rule of law was eventually secured here.

On the other hand, Raquel's refund from California arrived on time and with no intervening nonsense:

...secured by this return.

***

Benjamin & Leslie Hawver

BENJAMIN & LESLIE have laid down the law with Michigan, which like most states, tries to exploit the feds' "ignorance tax" scheme and collect money from people who have actually done nothing taxable but who have been subjected to "withholding" by co-opted or confused payers:

Here is the filing by which Benjamin & Leslie's evidence was introduced.

***

Ian & Julie Monroe

IAN & JULIE HAVE SECURED a complete refund from the feds of everything withheld in connection with alleged taxable activities by the companies for which they worked:

Here is the claim Ian & Julie submitted to secure this refund and keep their money where it belongs.

***

Scott & Olga Clark

SCOTT & OLGA HAD NO WITHHOLDING to reclaim. They simply had an erroneous "income" allegation to rebut by way of their filing. So, no check to display, but these good Americans did get a polite confirmation from the IRS which they are happy to share:

***

Gerald & Vicki Langwell

GERRY & VICKI SHARE THEIR LATEST victory, this one a complete recovery of everything improperly withheld from them during 2022 and given over to Uncle Sam:

There were some amusing bumps along the way-- prior to processing Gerry & Vicki's claim, the Keystone Kops challenged their return with not one but two LTR12Cs. Here is the agency's first corrupt shot (with Gerry's polite reply, here), and here is the second (with Gerry's still-polite reply, here).

***

Dutch Van Camp

"DUTCH" VAN CAMP IS GOING TO close things out for us today by sharing the most important and foundational kind of victory-- a victory of the heart and the mind. As nice as are the more mundane victories of recovering or retaining wealth that rightfully belongs in the pocket of the one that created it, no one gets there without first mustering the courage and character to take ownership of a truth which is liberating and rewarding, but also disquieting and sometimes downright scary.

Dutch speaks a bit of his own journey, and then offers some hard-eyed perspective on the horizon toward which everyone in this community should be firmly turned. Heed this man's good words.

SO, WHAT CAN BE SAID, except, WELL DONE, heroes!!

HATS OFF TO Raquel, Benjamin & Leslie, Ian & Julie, Scott & Olga, Gerry & Vicki and Dutch. Their great victories join those of the tens of thousands of other awakened and activated Americans represented here, and constitute more critical steps toward the restoration of the Founders republic and the true rule of law. Their great activism and outreach drive everything forward.

Btw, YOUR victories could be posted, too!

It's easy. Stand up on behalf of the law, and then share the evidence.

That's all there is to it!

YOUR inspiring being-the-storm video could be posted, too! This is easy to do, and very important (plus it can get you some great LHC swag!). See (and carefully read in their entirety) these guidelines and encouragements.

Remember, it's all about upholding the law, and that is YOUR responsibility. Awakening others to this high and honorable duty is the best way to make it happen.

Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE SPORADIC EASINGS of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected under since the onset of the COVID-19 hobgoblin narrative should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], since March of 2020 you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

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.

Are the presentations and resources offered on this site and in my other work of any value to you?

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.

How To Be A Leader In The CtC Community

It's simple:

KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TAX IN DETAIL

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE RESOURCES

BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SCAMS, THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND THE TROLL-POLLUTION

TAKE CHARGE IN YOUR STATE FORUM, HELPING EVERYONE TO THINK CLEARLY AND STAY ON TOPIC

All-in-all, just be the sort of person for others that you would go to yourself for trustworthy leadership.

Leadership is a challenge. But it's not complicated, and you can do it.

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...

That Annoying W-2 Form

What you don't know, but should.

by Willie Shields

The IRS calls the W2 an “information return,” as in - someone informed on you. Before this happens to you again, you need to ask yourself a a few questions.

First, who is this person identifying me as someone the federal government needs to investigate? A paid asset of the IRS? A volunteer so dedicated to the U.S. government that he or she would donate their business services by filling out government forms with personal financial information and forwarding that information to an agency known for threatening Americans with adverse legal action for lying about financial matters? (Nice guy, your boss.)

Also. The amounts referred to are identified as what? Federal income? Taxable earnings? Wages?

Now. What action(s) need I take? Do I stamp the W2 form with my imprimatur, attach it to IRS1040 and ship it to the bean counters at IRS Headquarters?

Would it not be prudent to learn EVERYTHING you need to know about the forms W2 and 1040, As well as the individual “agent” acting on behalf of the government as if he or she was a ranking officer in the Treasury Department? After all, the IRS, through a scheme called withholding, is planning on keeping up to 30% or more of your yearly earnings. Once you learn how to legally FORCE the IRS to return that money, with interest, to you, year after year, you will lose your fear of the IRS…FOREVER.

In the interest of brevity, I will direct you to pertinent custom definitions within Title 26 - The Internal Revenue Code.

Laws are written in English, using specific words to preclude misunderstandings. (If I’m going too fast, start at the top and read it again.)

In the I.R.C you will find phrasing similar to the following, and you will know that CUSTOM definitions are referred to:

For the purposes of this code section, the TERM “wages” includes….

...and then proceed to the afterword below...

 

Afterword

HOW NICE TO BE ABLE TO POST a CtC-educated piece as an 'Other Voices'! My policy with this section of the newsletter is to be a bit eclectic with the guest posts-- in large part to show in these "afterwords" how the truth about the tax offers a solution to many general policies-and-practices complaints shared by thoughtful observers with their own readers. In his piece, Willie takes his readers a good long way down that path on his own, and I can kick back a bit while writing this newsletter-- something rare and welcome. (Btw, you can listen to the latest conversation between Willie and me on his radio show, here.)

Indeed, all I need to add as an afterword this time is an invitation. I invite everyone to consider how much more quickly America could get to the educated "army to big to resist" spoken of by Dutch Van Camp in the video posted with the other victories at the top of this page if more in this community begin doing as Willie has done, sharing the individual-empowering, state-restraining truth about the "income" tax revealed in CtC and exhaustively proven by both deep and broad legal and historical scholarship as well as hundreds of thousands of practical applications.

How much more quickly could the whole "ignorance tax" scheme collapse, along with all the pathological behavior of the governments long-suckling at that witch's teat, if thousands in this educated community began writing and posting and promoting such articles and commentaries?

Heck, even the corrupt tax agency efforts to discourage or intimidate CtC-educated Americans prove the correctness of that revealed truth. All that need happen is for those who don't already know to be intriguingly-pointed toward the information, as Willie has done in his article above.

Articles, commentaries, comments to these newsletter articles, and especially videos should be flying out from this community all the time! Remember, people, those defending the evil status quo are legion, and relentless. Those wanting them defeated, and their evil scheme and its evil progeny wiped away, need to be just as much so.

At a minimum, everyone in this community should be diligently sharing, with suitable exhortations and persuasions to the recipient, the materials I have written for this purpose. For instance, clicking on the image of Dorothy and Glinda, below, will yield a short .pdf by which anyone not welded to a government teat will quickly be inspired and equipped to lend their strength to climbing out of our suicidal dive, if shared around with at least a subject line encouraging its perusal.

Seriously, people. It's time to stop whistling past the graveyard.

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

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 (sixteenth) edition of CtC!

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 and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

PRO TIP: If I were the IRS and I wanted to discourage people from rebutting allegations that they had done things I can tax, and wanted to keep them from successfully reclaiming withheld or paid-in money, I would salt the "tax honesty" community with passionate-seeming "legal researchers" who would warn anyone whose ear they captured that filing a 1040 is a bad idea for one reason or another...

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.
