It's Time To Share More Victories

...to inspire and encourage others into standing up and stepping up, as all good Americans ought to do.

Walt & Maryanne

WALT & MARYANNE SHARE A NICE VICTORY in recovering everything withheld from them and given over to the feds during 2022, Social security and Medicare taxes included, plus interest:

Here is the claim by which this victory in enforcing the law was secured.

WELL DONE, WALT & MARYANNE!!

Lance Cole

LANCE HAS SECURED TWO recent victories: an outright complete refund from Arizona of everything withheld during 2022, and a victory-in-progress (v-i-p) from the feds for 2022, including only a partial refund thus far but acknowledging on paper that no "income" has been received and no tax is owed-- even the amounts yet to be refunded.

Here is the Arizona refund:

...issued pursuant to this claim; and here is the federal refund notice and acknowledgement:

...issued pursuant to this claim.

As is typical in these v-i-p cases, the refund notice blatantly lies in a couple of key respects apparently meant to confuse the target.

Specifically, on the first page of the notice under the heading, "Why we changed your information", it says, "We changed the amount claimed as federal income tax withheld on your tax return to reflect the amounts shown on Form(s) W-2, 1099, or other supporting documents." But the supporting documents (that is, the Forms 4852 attached to the 1040 in support of the refund claim) show $17,471 withheld as federal income tax in total.

This falsehood is emphasized with the follow-up lie on page 2 of the notice. There, under the heading, "Your payments and credits", it says "Income tax withheld, Form 1040 line 25d" and lists $11,412, whereas the figure actually appearing on Lance's 1040, line 25d is the full $17,411 withheld. The hope appears to be that Lance will be misled into imagining that for some reason even though everyone agrees that he did nothing taxable the feds still get to keep the FICA income surtaxes withheld from him, and that they aren't even proper to list as having been withheld at all-- even thought the law expressly commands otherwise:

Any tax paid under chapter 21 or 22 by a taxpayer with respect to any period with respect to which he is not liable to tax under such chapter shall be credited against the tax, if any, imposed by such other chapter upon the taxpayer, and the balance, if any, shall be refunded.

...and the IRS admission that Lance had no "wages" under Chapter 24 of the IRC (an admission expressed not only in the agency's black-and-white statements in the notice above, but also by its having returned to Lance everything withheld from him pursuant to that chapter) is also an admission that Lance had no Chapter 21 "wages" by which any FICA tax liability can be measured and established-- a point recognized by the US Supreme Court in Rowan Cos. v. United States, 452 US 247 (1981), in which it is held that "wages" under Chapter 24 are the same thing taxed as "wages" under Chapter 21 and 22, meaning that if one hasn't had the former, one cannot have had the latter. (See that all explained in detail here.)

Lance still has a bit of a battle in front of him to get the rest of his money returned (or at least the submission of a firm demand in light of the foregoing), but meantime,

WELL DONE, LANCE!

Jeff Rische

I'VE SAVED JEFF FOR LAST because his victories are always especially significant and worthy of note. You see, for a number of years now this excellent American has not only won victories but has also prosecuted a series of litigations against various abusive IRS practices during which the "ignorance tax" schemers have been forced into numerous evasions and contrivances in their desperate effort to shore up the fraud.

A few years ago, one such litigation commenced over the assertion by the IRS of a "frivolous return penalty", based on the "ARG44" hoax (discussed in detail here), in regard to Jeff's claim for amounts withheld during 2018 (which had never been honored). Although a number of victories on the hoax issue have recently been accumulating, in this case Jeff went all the way up to the 9th circuit (where he is well known due to those other litigations) with no joy. Instead he found repeated shameful judicial dodges, with the matter being closed out by the court last May.

Nothing out of the ordinary in the foregoing, for the most part, but on July 10, 2023, Jeff found in his mailbox two notices from the IRS. One is a v-i-p refund of Jeff's claim for 2018, plus interest:

The other is a v-i-p refund of Jeff's claim for 2020 (strangely, sans interest):

Here is the 2018 filing; and here is the 2020 return.

You've got to love the implications.

Understand that just because these particular refund notices don't spell out the "$0 income, $0 tax owed" found on the CP16 sent to Lance Cole posted above, they carry the exact same meaning. The refund in full of amounts withheld pursuant to Chapter 24 against purported "wages" is an admission that no such "wages" were received by Jeff, and that, in turn, means that no Chapter 21 "wages" were received, either-- which in turn means that no tax under any label arose or is due (and yet the surtax withholdings are being kept by the government anyway, so far).

At the same time, the IRS is pretending that Jeff's returns meet the statutory specifications of "frivolous" for the application of the "frivolous return penalty", while having admitted that his filings are correct in every respect. Further, by having resorted to the fake "frivolous return position" allegations, the IRS has also admitted that no actual statutorily-specified qualifying position by which the penalty can validly apply can be asserted about Jeff's filings.

The agency is tying itself in knots, or, rather, Jeff is tying the agency in knots, and the corrupt courts, too.

WELL DONE, JEFF-- VERY WELL DONE!!

HATS OFF TO Walt & Maryanne, Lance, Paul & Rebecca, Lynda, Justin & Brianna, Craig & Wanda, and Jeff. 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. 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.

A Few Comments On Israel And Hamas

...reluctantly offered, because this subject is so polluted by dis- and mis-information that I hate to even think about it.

THERE'S A PLACE THAT used to be called Palestine up until just lately, when terrorists drove the native population from its homes, farms, orchards and industries, and seized those generations-in-the-making places, possessions and resources. Since that invasion/expropriation the region has been renamed "Israel".

An important understanding of the events thus briefly described-- which will be very controversial or outright shocking to some readers-- can be gained by study of a couple of resources I posted back in 2018 the last time events called for comments on this ugly bit of history. Here are those resources and the introduction I provided for them, which I think offers an always useful tip on research practices generally:

A Pair Of Old And Useful Windows On Current Events In The Middle East

Reaching into the past for information thwarts the agenda of present-day "fake news" mongers.

IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE that one of the best ways to shield oneself from the effects of propaganda is to look to sources of information from before an issue became someone's cause, or before the spin war began, or became sophisticated, or became self-referential and self-sustaining. Early information is unspun and far more likely to be accurate.

In that vein, I would like to share two older documents regarding places and people in the Middle East, in the hope that they might help support clear thinking about the present-day situation insulated from what has long been a ferocious disinformation campaign attempting to gain control over the future by exercising control over what people are to believe true about the past. What value these docs may have will be up to each reader.

THE FIRST DOCUMENT I'M OFFERING is a transcription I have done of an excerpt from a Geography text by the prolific, very widely-read and very well-respected historian journalist and polymath Hendrik Willem van Loon written in 1932 and describing the population distribution and general demographic character of what was then Palestine and is now Israel. Find it here.

The other doc presenting an historical perspective on the same subject is a declassified CIA "Information Report" on Israel and the Arab states from March 18, 1949. I downloaded the report in 2008, but, interestingly, have been unable to find it on the CIA website during revisits in more recent years.

The quality of the doc, which is apparently a scan of an ancient type-written report, is abysmal. Nonetheless, it can be made out with some effort, and I have provided a helpful transcription.

The document contains interesting revelations about very early events after the 1948 violation by Jewish settlers of the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine which had been designed pursuant to Great Britain's 1917 Balfour Declaration concerning the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in a part thereof (which contained the specification that "nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities"). They are worth the trouble. Find that report here.

FINALLY, I HAVE LONG ENCOURAGED the reading of a very well-written and comprehensive history of 20th-Century Middle-East events written for the Cato Institute by Sheldon Richman, which can be found here. I recommend it again, after the other two documents have been taken in.

Students of the subject might also be interested in the comments here and here.

IN ADDITION TO THE FOREGOING INFORMATION RESOURCES, I'd like to share a few comments reactive to the furious spin by which public discourse on the recent breach by Hamas of the decades-long concentration-camp confinement of a couple of million dispossessed Palestinians and their descendants in the Gaza Strip has been deeply bent.

Let's start with this: Criticism of Israeli policies or practices is NOT "anti-Semitism". Indeed, such criticism could be deemed tainted by anti-Semitism solely through the argument that only "Semites" (which, in this context, means "Jews") would or could do the things Israel is criticized for doing. In making or implying that argument, of course, it would ironically be those throwing around the "anti-Semite" slur who are shown to be actually guilty of that bigotry.

In fact, criticism or condemnation of Israeli policies and practices is just that-- criticism or condemnation of the institutional behavior of a political entity. Personally, I would criticize some Israeli policies and practices (particularly those involving the dispossessed Palestinian population) if Israel were populated and run by relocated Swedish Lutherans or Saudi Arabian Muslims, and I suspect that the same could be said for any and all critics of Israel.

On the other hand, Palestinians are real objects and victims of American bigotry-- at least institutionally. Long before any Palestinian had ever done anything for which that people has been labeled "terrorist" by any American politician or pundit, the US callously and contemptuously acted against them, in a deeply and enduringly harmful way, as you will have seen in reading through the resources linked above. That scornful and abusive treatment has continued for 75 years, and was preceded by the same dismissive abuse by the British and its allies (including the US) by way of the Balfour Declaration and the imposition of its goals during the years after World War I.

(As a relevant aside, I think it grossly improper and intellectually deceitful to label-- without explanatory context-- any person or group forced by circumstances into the conduct of defensive asymmetrical warfare as "terrorists". Even violence against civilian targets under such circumstances must properly be recognized as simply warfare, in keeping with Clausewitz' dictum that "warfare is the continuation of politics by other means". It is true that when an offending policy is implemented or enforced exclusively by an dictatorship, only the dictator(s) and his/their enforcers are the proper targets of attack. But if the offending policy is that of a popularly-chosen government, those doing the choosing are valid targets as well.)

ALL TOLD, America has no real cause for taking sides against the Palestinians as it has done relentlessly for 75 years. At the same time, there is also no good reason for American embrace of the Israelis.

In fact, in addition to its foundational behavior creating a festering sore in the Middle East that has roiled the region and other affected places for decades (and doing so through terrorism-- in this case, real terrorism, in that no political motive existed and no offense to be redressed had been given by the peaceful Palestinians) Israel has routinely acted against and to the harm of America and American interests.

Consider the repeated theft of American resources, materials and technology (and the implicit callous and criminal exercise of influence over American officials)-- along with other heinous acts against our interests-- documented in the VERY IMPORTANT discussion below (posted in May of 2021) of the Israeli nuclear weapons program and the offenses committed by many US presidents in regard to same. Read all the material in this article, and at the links within that material. These are very serious matters.

Clinton, Bush, Obama And Trump All Committed This Crime; Will Biden Do The Same?

Current events make the otherwise predictable "Yes" a little less certain.

THE RECENTLY RENEWED STATE-SANCTIONED attempts to dispossess Palestinian homeowners in East Jerusalem and turn their property over to Jewish squatters-- just the latest in a long series of such abusive assaults, all illegal under international law (and all morally wrong without regard to the ethnicity or religion of any party involved)-- prompted understandable but ineffectual militant responses from previously-dispossessed Palestinians in the open-air prison of Gaza. This fierce-looking but nearly harmless barrage of what appear to be glorified fireworks (~4,000 rockets fired over ten days, causing only 13 casualties) was used as the excuse for a devastating series of attacks on the blockaded and impoverished Gazans by the vastly better-armed Israeli Defense Force, leaving hundreds dead amidst massive property devastation.

Much of the latest death and destruction in Gaza was carried out with weapons made, supplied, or subsidized by the US through annual handouts to Israel of military and cash aid. All of that aid-- since 1977, or at least since 1986 when details of Israel's nuclear weapons program were revealed-- has been illegal under the clear and plain language of the nuclear non-proliferation controls codified at 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1.

Nonetheless, a long succession of US presidents have systematically violated the law, and been allowed to get away with it unscathed. It's unlikely, but perhaps this latest widely-observed abuse of that aid by Israel against an essentially helpless and long-suffering Palestinian population will prompt Joe Biden to finally put an end to this corrupt tradition.

The Law

22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa AND 2799aa-1 REQUIRE THE PRESIDENT to determine when any country is in possession of nuclear weapons and/or has acquired nuclear-weapons-related technology or shared nuclear-weapons-related technology, while having not subjected itself to International Atomic Energy Agency oversight and controls. Upon the dutiful making of this determination, all United States foreign aid to the errant country-- economic and military-- must cease.

Here is the language of 22 U.S.C. § 2799aa:

22 U.S. Code § 2799aa - Nuclear enrichment transfers

(a) Prohibitions; safeguards and management

Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, no funds made available to carry out the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq.] or this chapter may be used for the purpose of providing economic assistance (including assistance under chapter 4 of part II of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2346 et seq.]), providing military assistance or grant military education and training, providing assistance under chapter 6 of part II of that Act [22 U.S.C. 2348 et seq.], or extending military credits or making guarantees, to any country which the President determines delivers nuclear enrichment equipment, materials, or technology to any other country on or after August 4, 1977, or receives such equipment, materials, or technology from any other country on or after August 4, 1977, unless before such delivery—

(1) the supplying country and receiving country have reached agreement to place all such equipment, materials, or technology, upon delivery, under multilateral auspices and management when available; and

(2) the recipient country has entered into an agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency to place all such equipment, materials, technology, and all nuclear fuel and facilities in such country under the safeguards system of such Agency.

(b) Certification by President of necessity of continued assistance; disapproval by Congress

(1) Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section, the President may furnish assistance which would otherwise be prohibited under such subsection if he determines and certifies in writing to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives, and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate that—

(A) the termination of such assistance would have a serious adverse effect on vital United States interests; and

(B) he has received reliable assurances that the country in question will not acquire or develop nuclear weapons or assist other nations in doing so. Such certification shall set forth the reasons supporting such determination in each particular case.

(2)

(A) A certification under paragraph (1) of this subsection shall take effect on the date on which the certification is received by the Congress. However, if, within thirty calendar days after receiving this certification, the Congress enacts a joint resolution stating in substance that the Congress disapproves the furnishing of assistance pursuant to the certification, then upon the enactment of that resolution the certification shall cease to be effective and all deliveries of assistance furnished under the authority of that certification shall be suspended immediately.

(B) Any joint resolution under this paragraph shall be considered in the Senate in accordance with the provisions of section 601(b) of the International Security Assistance and Arms Export Control Act of 1976.

22 U.S.C. § 2799aa-1 covers much the same territory, but with its focus on a few different violative acts.

So, again, 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1 require the president to determine when any country is in possession of nuclear weapons and/or has acquired nuclear-weapons-related technology or shared nuclear-weapons-related technology, while having not subjected itself to International Atomic Energy Agency oversight and controls. Upon the dutiful making of this determination, all United States foreign aid to the errant country-- economic and military-- must cease.

As will be shown below, Israel thoroughly qualifies as being in possession of nuclear weapons, as well as having both acquired (by theft and espionage against the USA) and having shared nuclear-weapon technology (with what was at the time the noxious apartheid regime of South Africa, no less), all while having refused any kind of oversight or control. And yet it has long been far-and-away the biggest recipient of United States economic and military foreign aid.

The Relevant Facts

IT IS WELL ESTABLISHED THAT ISRAEL is a country about which the determination mandated by 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1 is required. Israeli nuclear technician Mordecai Vanunu revealed extensive details of his country's nuclear programs and arsenal in 1986. Prior to that the program had been less formally "outed" but was nonetheless known to exist-- indeed, as far back as 1963 John Kennedy was demanding access to Israel's Dimona reactor site due to suspicions that it was a secret nuclear-weapons facility. See here and here.

Not long after these increasingly impatient demands began to escalate Kennedy was conveniently disappeared into the ground. Lyndon Johnson, a fawning, religiously-deluded Israeli sycophant, was elevated to the presidency in Kennedy's place, and the inspection and oversight demands ceased.

Johnson was not just willing to turn a blind eye to Israeli acquisition and development of weapons of mass destruction. He was such an abject Israeli puppet that he actually assisted in the cover-up of the Israeli murder of 34 American sailors and wounding of 171 more on the USS Liberty while trying to sink that American naval vessel, presumably either to keep the Liberty from reporting on Israeli war crimes in the 1967 war or to blame its sinking on Egypt in order to pull the US into the war on Israel's side.

More to the immediate point, also during Johnson's "watch", American agents of Israel clandestinely secured large amounts of fissile material from American sources under false pretenses and transferred it to the rogue state.

Israeli spies continued to steal materials and knowledge over the subsequent decades (and not just nuclear secrets). During the same period, Israel shared the stolen nuclear technology with its sister apartheid regime in Boer South Africa.

By at least 2009, Israel had co-opted the US National Security Agency into handing over all data collected by the spy agency from 24/7 surveillance of every American-- in raw (that is, unredacted) form. A risible fig-leaf in the form of an Israeli promise to ignore and destroy material concerning American government officials will ease the concerns of only the extraordinarily gullible over what is obviously the acquisition by a foreign interest of the means to directly control American politicians, media moguls and other wielders of power and influence.

IN RECENT YEARS Israel has devoted its well-developed expertise at re-investing last year's foreign aid as this year's campaign contributions-- and its ability to intimidate, marginalize or blackmail the few American politicians who will not be bought-- into a broad, self-serving capture of American resources far beyond the already enormous economic and military foreign aid it receives.

Leveraging the bizarre and still unexplained events of 9/11, the little Middle Eastern state has induced the pissing away of $trillions taken from American men and women-- or saddled onto American children as debt-- along with the lives of tens of thousands of our young people, either dead or grievously wounded, and American moral stature world-wide as well. This treasure, blood and international respect has been spent on the facilitation of Israeli expansion through the violent destabilization and outright destruction of regional roadblocks and competitors in the form of Iraq, Libya and a seriously wounded but still surviving Syria.

The received and ridiculous story-line supporting all these American sacrifices has been that we are fighting "terrorists" "over there". Somehow these "terrorists" harbor a deadly hatred of our values and unique enmity for the United States, but are mysteriously disinterested in coming here to do anything about it.

That is, for some reason, we are to believe, these "terrorists" prefer that their own homes be the devastated fields of battle instead of ours. Guess they don't really hate us THAT much...

By a further remarkable coincidence, these "American values-hating terrorists" all happen to live exclusively in places "over there" which stand in the way of Israeli ambitions. None, somehow, happen to live in equally-Muslim Indonesia, or Azerbaijan, or Bangladesh, or anywhere else not inconvenient to Israel.

Current efforts are devoted to pushing the U.S. into violent aggression against Iran, as well, at the same but ever-more acute risk of a fatal confrontation with Russia that has attended the assault on Syria over the last several years. Iran is a target of particular Israeli interest due to its generous support of Lebanese defense against repeated Israeli invasions and long-standing plans to seize its neighbor's water resources.

What It All Means

THE POINT OF THE FOREGOING HISTORY LESSON, of course, is that not only is Israel a state prohibited from receiving US aid under 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1, but it is a particularly egregious violator of the practices condemned by these statutes. It is also plainly a violator which has clearly become utterly contemptuous of the America that has so steadily failed to punish it for its many and continuing offenses.

The legal obligation of the Biden administration to sanction Israel for these many and continuing offenses, in fidelity to the law and in defense of America's national dignity, is correspondingly stark and grave.

The question, then, is whether the law will prevail or the long-standing corruption will continue. I'm keeping a happy thought, based on the widespread condemnation of Israel being prompted by its current escalation of crimes against Palestinians dispossessed in 1948 (and their descendants) and the effect that disapprobation might have on the relevant political calculus.

STILL, WHILE PANDERING and outright subordination to Israel will generally be made more difficult (or breaking free from those habits will be made easier) by the abuses now being committed in Jerusalem and Gaza, no one in Washington will even think to deploy the sanctions mandated by 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1. Indeed, no one in Washington will even bring these provisions up, hoping that they are, and will remain, unknown to the American people.

Thus, the opportunity before us for dramatic correction of a decades-old presidential criminal practice won't be realized without some grassroots agitation and the sharing of this article with as many people as possible. Raise your voice and be the storm.

(At the same time, don't forget this: If the political class refuses to obey the law and cut off Israel's foreign aid, YOU AND I can make it happen all on our own.)

***

None of this is to say that any particular Israeli deserved any harm suffered during the recent Hamas attack. But it is to say that Israel as a whole does not deserve lockstep and unquestioned US support or defense, either diplomatically, economically or militarily.

After all, as has recently been well said about Ukraine, Israel is not the 51st state. Indeed, contrary to self-serving rhetoric from Israel sycophants and clients, ignorant pundits, and defense contractors and clients salivating over any US military engagement, Israel is not even an ally of the United States and has never made a formal commitment to shed a drop of blood or spend a single shekel on America's behalf.

On the contrary, and as has been thoroughly documented above, Israel has always been more an enemy to America's interests than a friend.

NOW, LET'S TALK about Iran.

To begin with, let us put to rest the nonsense about Iran having had returned to it $6bn that was always its own money in the first place being somehow a factor in the attack by Hamas. As even rabid neocons now cannot dispute-- and as was obvious from the get go-- the Hamas attack was the culmination of as much as a year or more of preparation and planning. The relinquishment of Iran's stolen money only took place last month.

Nonetheless, the usual suspects are relentlessly using the attack to beat the bellicose drum against Iran (channeling the shade of the late nutcase John McCain). This should raise the eyebrows of anyone familiar with Benjamin Netanyahu's long history of seizing upon any pretext to urge hostility toward that sorely-abused country, whose transformational experience with the United States was 'Operation Ajax'-- a CIA-orchestrated coup in 1953 to overthrow Iran's first democratically-elected leader and replace him with the horrendous dictatorship of Shah Mohammad Rezi Pahlavi, under which the Iranian people suffered for the next 25 years. (Btw, many will not be aware that the US embassy in Tehran, from which all the hostages were famously taken in the Iranian Revolution of 1978, was the HQ of the CIA in the country...)

Indeed, the mystifying failure of Israel's extremely elaborate security structure ensuring the integrity of the Gaza strip enclosure behind which its two million inmates have been confined (see here for more on that) strongly suggests that the Netanyahu government allowed the breach and the killings, in order to distract from Natanyahu's persistent corruption scandals and to give it the pretext for its dual desires to wipe out (or at least seriously diminish) the Palestinians in Gaza and, more importantly, to foment and/or justify hostile action against Iran (preferably by the United States, since Israel itself would take serious, and possibly fatal damage if it went to war with Iran on its own).

On that last point, Netanyahu is once again warning everyone who will listen (i.e., the neo-con cabal in Washington) that Iran is about to start making nukes, and horror of horrors, might then end up with a strong defensive deterrent just like the one Israel itself has.

But of course, Iran, unlike Israel, is a signatory to the non-proliferation treaty, and has a plainly stated, long-standing policy in the form of a religious proscription against nuclear weapons, deeming them an immoral abomination. Further, had that proscription been a facade, Iran could have had nukes at any time, being perfectly capable of buying them from places like Pakistan, or Russia, or even perhaps receiving them from Russia just as gifts, the two countries having long been friendly and now closely aligned.

(It is not much reported in the West, but Russia recently gave North Korea the capability of hitting Washington, DC with nukes, apparently as a strategic move in light of US missile placements in close proximity to Moscow and the general US encirclement of the Russian federation with military bases. It would surely view gifting a few ready-to-fly's to Tehran in the same light, if asked. But Iran does not ask.)

PLAINLY, THERE IS MUCH MORE that could be said on this highly-charged situation in the Middle East, but it will have to await another day. For now, let us end in wisdom with a portion of George Washington's Farewell Address that is very suited to the current American political discourse:

"...[N]othing is more essential, than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular Nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded; and that, in place of them, just and amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated. The Nation, which indulges towards another an habitual hatred, or an habitual fondness, is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation against another disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and intractable, when accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence frequent collisions, obstinate, envenomed, and bloody contests. The Nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the Government, contrary to the best calculations of policy. The Government sometimes participates in the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times, it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects of hostility instigated by pride, ambition, and other sinister and pernicious motives. The peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of Nations has been the victim.

"So likewise, a passionate attachment of one Nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite Nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest, in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter, without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite Nation of privileges denied to others, which is apt doubly to injure the Nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained; and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens, (who devote themselves to the favorite nation,) facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation."

Tools For Leveraging The CtC Superpower

You've got magic in your hands, if you will use it...

*****

The Income Tax Law, In Seven Pages

Really.

HERE IS THE LAW, IN 7 PAGES.

HERE IS HOW THE SCHEME WORKS, IN 8 PAGES.

HERE IS HOW TO OVERCOME THE SCHEME AND ENFORCE THE LAW, IN 256 PAGES.

Share these all, everywhere you can. Be your most creative self in sending and "selling" these links. Do memes; make gifs; respond to everything in the news that would be or have been better had the state been small, or if Americans kept their money for their own uses.

If you pay attention to the news and train yourself to apply these perspectives, you will see a dozen things of which you can make use in awakening other Americans to the virtues of having the income tax correctly administered. Please, for my sake, for your own sake, for the sake of your children and their future, make that use.

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.

"It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error."

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...

Real American men and women stand up for the truth and the law, come what may, knowing that it is only by setting the bar at the top and enforcing it, come what may, that liberties are secured.

Government Evades The Constitution

Section 702 of FISA should be renewed.

by Andrew Napolitano

Six months ago, FBI officials boasted that in 2022, their agents had spied on only 120,000 Americans without search warrants!

Under the Constitution, that number should be zero.

This revelation is supposed to give members of Congress comfort that the people we have hired to protect the Constitution are in fact doing so. In reality, the feds continue to assault and violate a core freedom protected by the Constitution — the right to be left alone.

The reason for the FBI revelation is the pending expiration of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and the bipartisan animosity to its extension.

Section 702 is unconstitutional on its face as it directly contradicts the core language of the Fourth Amendment. It permits the feds to conduct warrantless surveillance on foreigners who are either physically or digitally present in the United States and anyone with whom they communicate — American or foreign — who are here.

For example, if you call or text or email an art dealer in Florence, Italy, from your home in New Jersey, or your cousin in Switzerland calls or texts or emails you at your home in California, the FBI can monitor those communications without a search warrant. And then the feds can monitor the future calls you make and texts and emails you send and receive.

The reason for the search warrant requirement is to prevent a repeat of what British agents did to the American colonists before the Revolutionary War. Then, secret British courts in London issued general warrants to British agents in the Colonies, which authorized the bearer to search wherever he wished and seize whatever he found.

When British agents used their general warrants to search Colonial homes ostensibly looking for tax stamps in compliance with the Stamp Act, they were really attempting to find colonists who entertained revolutionary ideas that might lead to a revolt against the king.

The existence and enforcement of the Stamp Act proved so unpopular that Parliament rescinded it after just one year of British agents roughing up colonists in their homes. But the former bond between the colonists and the king had been irreparably breached, and a sea change in Colonial thinking pervaded the land. The core of that sea change was not taxation without representation; it was freedom.

To the Colonial mindset, freedom had one universal meaning. It meant freedom from the government — from king and Parliament.

This change in thinking resulted in an ideological welcome mat for the Declaration of Independence. When Thomas Jefferson was holed up in a Philadelphia rooming house for five days in June 1776 writing and revising the Declaration, he thought he was crafting the ideological fountainhead of a minority of landowners who despised the king’s authority. Yet within a year, farmers and artisans and laborers joined the popular and bloody revolt that ended in 1783 with freedom from England.

What about freedom from the new government here?

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

Afterword

How to cure the affliction.

HEAR, HEAR, Andrew Napolitano!! Or, if you like, Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho! 702 has got to go!!

As Napolitano observes, Section 702 of FISA is flatly illegal under the Constitution and as I will add, anyone implementing it should be prosecuted. Such perps might skate on the fact that Congress passed the law, and the courts have allowed it to persist (so far), but they should not. Obedience to Constitutional prescriptions and proscriptions is the responsibility of each actor who has taken the oath of office, and such responsibilities cannot be waived or forgiven due to the corruption of others.

Those interested (and all should be) can find the real details of the purpose and mandates of the Fourth Amendment here (and will find that those details are quite different from what corrupt and co-opted courts have allowed in that regard over recent decades). Those interested (and all should be) will find details of how returning America to an honest and respectful implementation of the income tax laws will also mitigate all manner of problems akin to the FBI's admitted abuse of Section 702 here.

Read those docs, and then become an agent of change. Urge everyone you know to let their congresscritter know that 702 must end.

Likewise, urge everyone you know to read CtC (online and free!), and stand up to save themselves and the country from the widespread corruption to which we have all fallen prey over the last 80 years.

Share this link as widely as you can.

If you have access to any pundits, share this link.

Further, independent 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 special 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.

Others can be found here and here and here.

Seriously, people. It's time to stop whistling past the graveyard and to start curing the cancer, instead.

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..."

Lawyers: It's Way Past Time For You All To Queue Up!

[Y]ou really need to familiarize yourself with Pete Hendrickson's absolutely magnificent work at his website and in his book(s). He has, brilliantly and lucidly, "cracked the code" regarding the federal income EXCISE tax(es)."

-Mark C. Phillips, JD

"...I find your work fascinatingly simple to understand."

-Jerry Arnowitz, JD

"Your book is a masterpiece!"

-Michael Carver, JD

"Received your book yesterday. Started reading at 11 PM, finished at 4 AM." "I have 16 feet (literally 16' 4.5") of documents supporting just about everything in your book." "Your book should be required reading for every lawyer before being admitted to any Bar." "I hope you sell a million of them."

-John O'Neil Green, JD

�Thanks again for your efforts, Pete. They mean an awful lot to a lot of people.� ��as an attorney, I am humbled by your knowledge and ability in navigating the law. THANK YOU for your hard work and sacrifice.�

-Eric Smithers, JD

"I am an attorney and want to give a testimonial to your book, which I find to be compelling. I am exercising these rights for myself and my adult children. I'm even considering making this my new avenue of law practice."

-Nancy "Ana" Garner, JD

Learn what these colleagues already know, then step forward and become part of a coordinated, mutually-supportive squadron focused on developing strategy and deploying the law in courtrooms across the country. There's a lot of suing that needs doing right now.

Are you ready for a challenge that'll put some real meaning behind all the effort you went through to get your credentials? Send me an email.

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")?
