Here is George Galloway's Election Special 'Mother
Of All Talk Shows' episode. No one could say it better (and
probably not even half as well), so I'm letting George do this
week's commentary.
Start at 5:00, and watch at least through
the interview with Gerald Celente. Bear in mind that this
podcast was recorded on Wednesday of last week, so a few minor
things will be be said that are out-of-date today-- but no
worries. I am confident that you will agree with me that
George's exuberant and cogent commentary is very much worth
watching nonetheless.

Some important comments on a subject already being
spun hard; along with an airing of a pet-peeve about the false
"college educated" demographic.
AS EARLY AS LAST WEDNESDAY MORNING, immediately
after Tuesday's Red Wave had sunk in beyond disbelief or denial,
talking heads on liberal (i.e., mainstream) media began a
variety of spin efforts. Many, of course, concerned themselves
with explaining the election outcome so as to place the blame on
anything other than the odious, corrupt and destructive policies
advocated and/or imposed by Democrats during the past four+
years.
But another, darker spin effort has been launched.
In this one, moderate leftist and progressive positions or
inclinations are being presented as the campaign promises by
which Donald Trump's legitimate mandate can be measured,
deviation from which will be fair game for criticism. Trump,
these spinsters "remind" us, campaigned on a commitment to
national unity and other Kumbayada-yada, and so must be expected
to play nice, even with all those people who have been calling
him Hitler and taking other shots at him, both rhetorical and
otherwise.
The effort is classic gaslighting-- meant to push
real memories aside in favor of false ones better-suited to the
propagandist's agenda.
Now, I will grant that Trump is capable of (and
pretty good at) ambiguity on the campaign trail, such that
various interest groups can find, through appropriate
rose-colored glasses, things within his speechifying which seem
to promise what each of them want to hear. This is especially so
because normally, DJT is a pretty poor free-form speaker, from
the standpoint of oratory.
Speaking off the teleprompter, Trump mangles and
constantly fails to complete sentences, assumes knowledge in the
audience, conflates subjects, has a tendency to drift into
mildly-hypnosis-inducing sing-songy rhythms, and makes vague
declarations the details of which are left to the imagination of
the listener (such as, "I
will end the war in Ukraine on day one"-- how? By nuking--
or threatening to nuke-- Moscow? By telling Zelenskyy he's on
his own and withdrawing all US arms and assistance? Everyone
assumes the latter, but Trump has never actually said).
Nonetheless, Trump never promised, or even hinted
at, any Kumbaya, and no one has any business suggesting
otherwise. On the contrary, what was at least strongly hinted at
was some reckoning-- reckoning which is much-deserved. Thus, the
lame effort at self-preservation through gaslighting.
HOWEVER, THERE WAS ONE OCCASION on which
Donald Trump actually made a comprehensive series of specific
promises. Some will remember that back in May, Trump was invited
(or successfully arranged) to speak at the Libertarian party's
national convention. As I said
in the newsletter
following that speech,
THERE IS ONE OTHER THING TO SAY in
regard to the Libertarian Party nominating event, though. Donald
Trump was afforded an opportunity to address the assembled
delegates, and to his credit, he took it, stepping in front of
what he had every reason to expect to be a largely hostile
crowd.
As much as I am no fan of Trump, I have
to say that if I can be led to believe that he will actually
work sincerely and competently to accomplish the high points of
the agenda he laid out in his effort to entice libertarian
support, I will become a near fan and possible supporter. If he
reaches that threshold and takes the next big step of shucking
off his bizarre abasement before Zionism and its every ambition,
I will actually become an enthusiastic Trump booster and will
even get, and wear, one of those otherwise silly red hats which,
as things now stand, ought to say, 'Make Israel Great Again'.
I think that in partial response to the gaslighting
effort discussed above, as well as for its own sake as the
promises to which Trump really should be held, this speech is
very much worthy of review. Here it is:
***
WHILE WE'RE ON THE SUBJECT of election
post-mortems, I will take this occasion to air a pet-peeve over
the use of the phrase "college-educated
_____" (men, women or American voters) to describe a
particular electoral demographic unit. For one thing, the expression suggests
a group less ignorant, or perhaps even more intelligent, than the
rest of the voters from whom they are being distinguished.
Whether this implicit distinction is intentional or
not is debatable, certainly, but I think it is pretty much
always intentional when the expression is used by partisans for
whose side the referenced group favors in the polls. In any
event, intended or not, the distinction being drawn is a false
one if "educated" or "intelligent" are really the
characteristics being distinguished.
Well-educated and intelligent are characteristics
enjoyed by many non-college-educated but accomplished people. At
the same time, "college educated" includes many "women's
studies" majors and the like with useless degrees signifying
nothing about meaningful level of education or intelligence.
So, all-in-all, drawing the "college-educated"
distinction is useful ONLY as a primp for the candidate favored
by the cohort so distinguished.
HOWEVER, THERE IS a related distinction
that can and should be made, and one that is much more
objectively meaningful: "college-indoctrinated
_____" (men, women or Americans). Apply that
distinction and suddenly the statistics of persons who have
spent years in American "institutions of higher education" and
break in favor of leftist, progressive, statist candidates and
policies make perfect sense.
This break-- in Harris' favor by 13 points last
Tuesday-- doesn't indicate that the smart crowd favors
Democrats. Rather, it indicates that the crowd steeped for years
in "critical race theory" gibberish, "climate change" hysteria
and "gender" dementia favors Democrats.
Big difference; much more accurate and meaningful.
I hope everyone will respond to the deployment of
the "college educated" propaganda with a swift and stern
corrective in accordance with the foregoing.

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.
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."
-United States Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson
(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.
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...
IF YOU'RE NOT SPREADING THIS LINK with every bit of
energy you can, to school libraries, homeschool
families and community groups, your neighbors, your
family members, your pastors and
co-congregationalists, journalists, lawyers, CPAs,
members of congress, tax-agency workers, Wikipedia,
Anonymous, WikiLeaks, the Tax Foundation, everyone
in the "tax honesty" movement, the 9/11 truth
movement, other activist movements and everyone
else,
you have only yourself to blame for your
troubles with the tax, and a whole lot else of which
you might complain. It's on you.
WRITE A NICE, FRIENDLY AND BRIEF introductory note
explaining what will be seen at the link-- cryptic
is bad; excited is good-- and then send this WMI
(weapon of mass instruction) far and wide.
Remember: Real Americans don't accommodate fog, lies and a sliding scale of
adherence to the rule of law. 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.

How Long Can Christians
Continue To Turn A Blind Eye To Israel's Atrocities?
by Chuck Baldwin
The regathering of Israel that notable
18th-century Bible scholar Matthew
Henry (and other post-Reformation writers) foresaw in his
famous commentaries was a generation of Hebrews that would come
to the saving faith in Jesus Christ, accepting Him as the
Messiah that their forebears had rejected and crucified. (I
diverge from the great Matthew Henry’s prophetic interpretations
in Revelation
Chapters 15 and 16.) The regathering of Israel that the
ignoble false prophecy teacher Cyrus Scofield (1843 – 1921)
described in his reference Bible was the rise of national
Israel, which, according to Scofield’s disciples, was fulfilled
with the creation of the Zionist state in 1948.
Tragically, the latter is the dominant
view of evangelical prophecy teachings today.
I submit that if Matthew
Henry had lived during the time of Scofield—and
especially after the creation of Zionist Israel in
1948—he would have absolutely and positively
rejected Scofield’s heresies (as
did the great Charles Spurgeon, who was a
contemporary of Scofield) and would have
vociferously rejected the doctrine of Christian
Zionism that was spawned by the notes in Scofield’s
Reference Bible.
Matthew Henry never
envisioned a bloodthirsty, murderous, genocidal
state that would callously and without conscience
annihilate hundreds of thousands—even millions—of
innocent people, including many thousands of God’s
New Covenant people, Christians, as being the Israel
of God (Galatians 6:16). Nor could he ever have
envisioned generations of his fellow Christians
turning a blind eye to or even cheering on those who
would commit such a horrific, heinous, inhumane
slaughter of innocents.
What we are witnessing today has never
been seen since the advent of Western civilization.
Obviously, there have been
diabolical and demented mass killers before, but
never have we seen Christian people—almost as a
whole—excuse, defend, facilitate and actively
support and assist the maniacal, murderous monsters.
Historically, Christians have been the
most persecuted people of faith in the 2,000-year Church era.
Our Christian ancestors knew the bitter taste of political,
religious and civil suffering. And never did they allow
themselves to indulge in the appetite for murder and
aggression—even against their enemies. They were, after all, the
disciples of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6); and
they boldly proclaimed the gospel of peace. (Romans 10:15;
Ephesians 6:15)
This is NOT the Christianity that we
see today.
The last twelve months have
unveiled a racist, bloodthirsty, maniacal Israeli
society that looks at people of other races as
nonhuman. They are described as animals. The babies
born to their mothers are called little snakes.
These killers recognize no law but their own—not
international law, not Natural law, not moral law,
not Biblical law, not even the law of humanity. They
kill at will. Defenseless women and children are
slaughtered like cattle. They celebrate death and
destruction. They are willing to take the world into
global nuclear war to achieve their goal of complete
ethnic purging of the Palestinian people. They
are wholly without conscience.
Yet, in the Christian West,
we find abject apathy or even exuberant excitement
for this satanic behavior. Our national government
protects and defends it. Worse than that: It assists
and facilitates this murderous madness by providing
money, weapons of mass destruction, satellite
surveillance, intelligence, etc., to the Zionist
zealots of death.
Make no mistake about it:
The United States of America is as culpable in the
deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocents in
Palestine as are the Israelis. So, too, are those
Americans—including Christians—who in their hearts
support Israel’s genocide.
One must understand that
the disease of racial superiority being flaunted by
the Israelis does not confine its self-acclaimed
preeminence over the Palestinians only. In the minds
of Benjamin Netanyahu and his fellow eugenists,
every goy (gentile) is nonhuman and, thus, warrants
any act of racial
cleansing.
I’ll let former CIA
intelligence officer
Phil Giraldi pick up from here:
SO, THIS ARTICLE BY CHUCK BALDWIN is timely for me. I had
never heard of the "Scofield Reference Bible" until just a month or
so back, and what I then learned is that this thing is a key element in
the very harmful infestation known as "Christian Zionism"-- a sect within
the larger community of Christianity.
Christian Zionists have been led to believe that
whoever establishes a state called "Israel" in the land of
Palestine (a land never previously called "Israel", btw, even in
Biblical times) must be afforded all deference, even unto
overlooking the most grotesque immorality carried out by
individual Israelis or as state policy. Likewise, according to
Christian Zionists, whoever establishes a state called "Israel"
in the land of Palestine must be given all possible aid-- even
aid picked from other people's pockets, and even aid with which
atrocities will be committed. Further, whoever establishes a
state called "Israel" in the land of Palestine must always be
praised and never criticized.
These utterly cultish notions-- the effect of which
is to prompt Christian Zionists to embrace, enable and even
participate in positions and behaviors which are directly at
odds with Christ's express teachings-- stem from a conflation of
whoever establishes a state called "Israel" in the land of
Palestine with the Biblical tribes of Israel and particular
assumptions (ill-founded ones, per my sketchy layman's knowledge
of Biblical text) about the durability of "chosen people" status
(not to mention the inherently contradictory prospect of an
all-loving creator having an especially-favored ethnicity to
which others sharing the same image and origin must defer).
Also in the mix is the belief held by Christian
Zionists that upon the happening of a specific series of events,
one of which is the establishment of a state called "Israel" in
the land of Palestine, the world will end and the Zionists will
be wafted up to Heaven, regardless of how many hideous crimes
they may have committed or overlooked in setting the stage for
this event, which they call the Rapture.
As a consequence of these beliefs (in the recital
and summation of which I have doubtless done much less justice
to the subject than could and would be done by others with more
than my very small knowledge of all this), Christian Zionists--
over-represented in the American political class, especially
amongst Republicans-- have long been the chief enablers of
Israeli crimes against humanity. Worse, these politically-placed
Zionists do their enabling with every American's blood,
treasure, and standing in the world, rather than only with their
own.
Politically-placed Zionists make their crimes into
crimes of every American, and it seems that the "Scofield
Reference Bible", in which Cyrus Scofield presumptuously
presents his personal interpretation of various Biblical
passages and concepts as authoritative-- confident, no doubt,
that his simplistic offerings will be absorbed and embraced by
average readers unlikely to do their own deep and thoughtful
study of the long and often complicated text-- has played an
oversized role in prompting those crimes.
NEEDLESS TO SAY, since hearing about this
"reference bible" I have been very interested in learning more.
Chuck Baldwin, a Christian pastor and Biblical scholar, offers
that additional information from an especially useful
perspective.
Most important in Baldwin's piece, in my view, is
his observation that Scofield's interpretations of Biblical text
are contradicted by long-respected and time-tested scholarship,
a fact which comports well with the simple common-sense
critiques of Zionist doctrine such as the few I have outlined
above. The sect's impact being so pernicious both here at home
and elsewhere in the world, such rebuttals and reproaches are
very much needed.
I hope that Baldwin quickly offers more of the
same, and that others in the scholarly theological community
step up with their own critiques and correctives. It may be late
in the game for much of a dent to be made in the minds of those
enthralled by the Zionist cult view, it being a germ that takes
root in childhood. But equipping the rest of the country with a
better picture of what is going on in the minds of Israel
über alles- types, in Congress and elsewhere,
is important.
BY THE WAY, I HAVE TO OBSERVE that there's a
glaring irony to the "Scofield Reference Bible" thing. This
is due to the fact that those taken in by it are specifically Protestant Christians.
A chief defining characteristic of Protestantism is opposition to the Catholic doctrine
of biblical text being interpreted for the faithful by church "experts".
And yet, those taken in by the Scofield scam have resumed the
spoken-down-to status rejected by their predecessors in the
Reformation six hundred years ago. They have simply
replaced the Roman Catholic theologians of the Middle Ages with this
alternative self-proclaimed "expert".
It is that individual sovereignty that is the
American creed insofar as the state and its proper purposes are
concerned; and it is the Declaration of Independence, the
writings of John Locke and Adam Smith, and the various American
Constitutions that are among the scriptures of what we might
call the Church of America.
The expenditure of American government resources
for any purpose other than the securing of Americans' individual
rights is prima facie sinful, under Church of America
doctrine. This is so whether that purpose is charitable or even
one of seeming (or, at least, asserted) urgency, such as
"climate change" mitigation.
The sin is especially dire when the expenditure of
American government resources is expressly for the benefit of an
alien people and their state. It is still more so when that
expenditure will be used to violate the rights and crush the
liberty of yet a third people (and now a fourth, when
Israeli/Zionist violence has been turned on the people of
Lebanon in addition to the long-victimized Palestinians).
Perhaps ensuring a wider understanding among the
American people of the Zionist project as heretical to the
Church of America, and of the "Scofield Reference Bible" by
which that project is fueled to a great degree-- and which,
interestingly, appeared shortly after Zionism and the notion of
a state of Israel was conceived and gotten started downhill by
Theodor Herzl in the late nineteenth century-- will help guide
us back to a national state of virtue in our foreign policy.
MEANTIME, OR AT THE SAME TIME, we can hope-- and
work toward ensuring-- that a large-enough portion of the
American population quickly learn
the
truth about the income tax and begin saying "NO!" along with
the CtC community, such that even though in the hands of sinful
Zionists Washington becomes bereft of
the resources to continue its participation in crimes in the Middle
East.
Such an effort is easier than ever now, with the US Supreme Court
having just reaffirmed its 108-year-old ruling
in Brushaber v. Union Pacific RR. Co.,
acknowledging the truth about the income tax
revealed in
CtC.
Remember, the arising and sustenance of
the Leviathan state monster used-- directly and
indirectly-- to wreak all the death and destruction
in the Middle East (and Eastern Europe, too) is a direct result of
the successful mis-administration of the US income
tax laws. This began primarily in the early 1940s with the
adoption of the Current Tax Payment Act of 1943
amidst the tumult of WWII, and after a couple of
decades of corrupt misrepresentation of the 16th
Amendment's purpose and effect, despite that
misrepresentation being squarely in defiance of
the
history of the amendment and multiple express Supreme
Court rulings on the subject.
Shrinking that
Leviathan state monster merely involves the
reversing of that misadministration-- something that
can be done by individual Americans, acting
one-by-one, with no help or approval of any
government official. Each such act makes use of
state-restraining tools baked into the
Constitutional cake by the Founders and Framers, and
each such act WILL make a difference, however small.
Most important, each such act will absolve the actor
from the dishonor of participation in the heinous
crimes their resources would otherwise finance.
All that is required is some knowledge
(which can be gotten
here),
and some courage-- the latter of which naturally
blooms in the hearts of real Americans when given
the nourishment of the former. As the saying goes,
America is the Land of the Free because it is the
Home of the Brave.
You can find all of this
explained
here, along with links to some additional
relevant resources.
Read that material, and then become an
agent of change. Urge everyone you know to do both
of these things, as well.
Seriously, people. It's time to stop
whistling past the graveyard and start using the
powerful and important tools with which our wise
ancestors equipped us.

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

"Peter Hendrickson has done it again! 'Upholding The
Law' does for individual liberties what 'Cracking the Code' did
for tax law compliance: exposes the reader to the unalienable
truth!"
-Jesse Herron, Bill Of Rights Press, Fort Collins, Colorado
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!
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...
(Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is
No Such Agency!)
Btw, a copy of
CtC from anywhere except the link above may not
be a current edition. CHECK. It matters. Also, there ARE no
e-book, Kindle or .pdf versions of
CtC.
Don't get taken in by efforts to sell you-- or even give you for
free-- any such thing.
November 12- In 1912, the frozen bodies
of the Scott expedition are found on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. In 1981,
the space shuttle Columbia becomes the first spacecraft to be launched twice.
In 1990, Tim Berners-Lee publishes the design of what becomes the World Wide
Web. In 2006, South Ossetia holds its second referendum to validate its 1991
declaration of independence from Georgia (the first one in 1992 having gone
unrecognized by the international community). 95% of ethnic South Ossetians
participated (66.2% of the population), and the vote was 99% in favor of
independence. The vote was monitored by observers from Germany, Austria,
Poland, Sweden and several other countries. Nonetheless, most Western
governments refuse to recognize this second affirmation of the will of the
people either, in part because the government of Georgia refuses to do so.

November 13- In 1916, Australian Prime Minister Billy Hughes is
expelled from his party (and post) over his support for conscription. In 1927,
the Holland Tunnel opens for traffic between New Jersey and New York. In 2002,
Iraq agrees to the terms of UN Security Council Resolution 1441 concerning
inspections for alleged "weapons of mass destruction", while maintaining that it
is already in compliance with previous disarmament demands. No such weapons
were found by the inspection teams, but Iraq's alleged continued possession of
these WMDs was nonetheless used as a pretext for the March 2003 invasion by the
United States. The WMDs have still not turned up...

There are real great deeds to be done,

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...

Illuminating Anniversaries of this week:
November 14- In 1910, Eugene Ely performs the first aircraft
take-off form the deck of a ship. In 1969, Apollo 12, the second manned mission
to the Moon, lifts off. In 1971, Mariner 9 becomes the first spacecraft to
orbit another planet (Mars). In 1972, the Dow Jones Industrial Average close
above 1,000 for the first time. In 2001, the United States proxy "Afghan
Northern Alliance" takes Kabul, having driven the Taliban from the capital on
the pretext that it was harboring Osama Bin Laden, when, in fact, the Taliban
had offered to turn Bin Laden over to the United States upon presentation of at
least some evidence of his involvement in the events of 9/11. The events of
9/11 were never listed by the FBI on its Bin Laden "Wanted" poster, with the
explanation reported to be a "lack of hard evidence" of his involvement in those
events. In 2002, the United States House of Representatives votes down a
proposal to create an independent commission to investigate the events of 9/11.
If you're not talking this one up everywhere and
helping generate a buzz, you don't really want liberty and the
rule of law...

In light of
the actual evidence, those
who doubt or
deny the accuracy and correctness of
CtC just because some government officials
denounce it are like the 16th-century Europeans who
were mystified by
Copernicus getting all those
astronomical predictions right even though the
church had said he was wrong.

Ignorance of the true nature of the "income" tax
has gagged, gutted and seduced-into-disgrace America's
ministerial community. This must change.

Illuminating Anniversaries of this week:
November 17- In 1734, Peter Zenger is
arrested for "seditious libel"-- publishing criticisms of the Governor of New
York. He was acquitted of the charge after his jury was informed of its
inherent authority to judge the legitimacy of the law under which Zenger was
charges, as well as the fact question of whether he had, in fact, done what the
law purported to prohibit. In 1777, the Articles of Confederation are submitted
to the several American States for ratification. In 1869, the Suez Canal
opens. In 1967, Lyndon Johnson reports to the American public that the United
States military is making progress in Vietnam. In 1970, Lt. William Calley goes
on trial for the My Lai massacre; the Soviet Union lands Lunokhod 1 on the
Moon-- the first extra-terrestrially deployed roving remote-controlled robot;
and Douglas Engelbart patents the mouse. In 1973, Richard Nixon tells the
assembled managing editors of Associated Press, "I am not a crook!" In 1989, a
police suppression of a peaceful student protest in Prague sparks the "Velvet
Revolution", which overthrows the more-than forty-year-old communist government
of Czechoslovakia in less than six weeks. In 2004, Kmart announces its purchase
of Sears, Roebuck and Co.. In 2019, the first known case of "COVID-19" appears
in Wuhan, China.

Last Word
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We
seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that
feeds you. May your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget
that ye were our countrymen."

Adams, Architect of the first American Revolution

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.
