Among other important observations in the battle for control of our beloved
country,
November 3- In 2003, the first-ever
complete refund of every
penny withheld from an American in connection with the "income" tax-- Social
Security and Medicare 'contributions' included-- is secured from the federal
government. In 2016, the Cubbies win the Big One-- ending a 108-year drought.
In 2020, the manufactured
"COVID-19" hysteria is
leveraged to facilitate a massive election fraud, culminating ultimately in
the assumption by Democrat candidate Joe Biden of the presidency of the United
States.

BTW, join me on The Shields Report
the first Saturday of every month at 5PM EDT!!
LET ME START TODAY BY INVITING EVERYONE to reflect upon the
fact that the concept of a "chosen people" is fundamentally
incompatible with the core and foundational American
principle that all men are
created equal.
Indeed, such a concept is not just incompatible with
American principles. It is much worse than that.
In fact, the idea of a "chosen people"
(or people under any label who are inherently of
special virtue, or due special deference, or
shielded from culpability for their harms to others,
or entitled to protection from criticism of their
actions, or to support with resources taken from
other people, by virtue of their heredity, or for
any other reason) is outright abhorrent to
America's core and foundational principles.
Anyone who adopts or advocates or acts
on behalf of a "chosen people" perspective is
fundamentally un-American. Such a person should be
recognized and denounced as both a fool (for
believing or defending such nonsense) and as an
enemy of America (for arguing or acting with scorn
and contempt toward the primary pillar on which this
great country's entire legal and moral framework
rests).
Let it be so.
IN THE SAME VEIN, I further invite everyone to reflect on
the fact that Christian theology is in no way
whatsoever dependent upon or hinged to the Old
Testament or anything therein. That is to say,
anyone who accepts the divinity and teachings of
Jesus Christ does so solely on the basis of the
miracles and messages reported by Matthew, Mark,
Luke, and John.
While those reports of the four scribes
make references here and there to persons, places
and events depicted in the texts known by the
collective title 'Old Testament', the testimonies
about the life and times and doings of, and
concerning, Jesus rest not at all for any of their
significance upon those references. Those references
could be excluded completely from the text of the
New Testament with no effect whatever upon the
importance or character of its content.
Would anyone, after all, be led (or
compelled) to dismiss the divinity of Jesus-- as
laid out in the New Testament-- due to being unaware
that Joseph (who had, in fact, no part in the
generation of Jesus, according to scripture) was a
descendant of David, and before him of Abraham, as
is reported by Matthew? Or if the references here
and there throughout the New Testament to ancient
prophecies were omitted? No one such thing would or
should make a difference to any believer, nor all of
them together.
The point of this reflection is that
the modern Zionist propaganda tool of supposed
"Judeo-Christianity"-- a term and concept not even
coined until the 19th Century (and then merely a
reference to Jews who had converted to
Christianity)-- is a false suggestion of an
imaginary umbrella faith comprised of Judaism and
Christianity together. It is meant to muddy the
perceptions of a vulnerable fundamentalist Christian
community and to paint Israel-friendly politics and
policies by Western government with a false color of
shared interests.
“Our prayer is that America will always
stand with the people of Israel, and we pray for the
preservation and the peace of Jerusalem,” Johnson
continued. “That’s what Scripture tells us to do,
it’s a matter of faith for us, and commitment that
we have.”
-US Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson
SO, WHY DO I ENCOURAGE these
reflections? To begin my answer, I will share a
reply I posted on X a few days ago to this statement
by the moronic Ted Cruz:
"Antisemitism is spreading among the
anti-Israel right, and too many people are afraid to
confront it. We support Israel because it is
unequivocally in the national security interest of
the U.S., and because the enemies of Israel hate
America."
My reply:
"US support for Israel has led to the
expenditure of $trillions from our treasury and tens
of thousands of dead and damaged Americans, while
destroying our soft power throughout the world and
afflicting us with armies of enemies. This is NOT in
our national interest."
I might have begun that reply with
another observation I have occasion to use on X so
often that I have produced it as an image for quick
deployment:
I left that one off my reply to Cruz
despite him opening his nonsense with the abuse of
the term "antisemitism", but it merits inclusion here. The
false smear it addresses can be added to the reasons
why support of Israel is very much NOT in America's
national interest-- security or otherwise.
The smear is used by Israel
supporters--
paid and otherwise-- to suppress the airing to a
broader public of Israeli crimes of every possible
type as part of a very dangerous assault on American
speech rights by the mendacious conflating of
criticism of Israel with racism against Jews. The
infestation of Zionism in various state governments,
as well as Washington, has led to this tortured
abuse of the language and logic being embedded now
in speech codes at public universities and elsewhere
in the USA, and as a broadly-deployed legal doctrine
in Europe.
See a good discussion of this here.
This overall assault on American speech
rights on behalf of Israel has a counterpart in
massive propaganda campaigns aimed at Americans and
facilitated by Zionists (or
Zionist tools) in positions of power, as
discussed
here
and
here.
There is, in short, a full-court-press
on to control American public discourse on behalf of
Israel-- a foreign country American support of which
has led to the ills listed in my reply to Ted Cruz,
above, and has also rewarded us with even greater
offenses against our real national interests over
decades, some of the more egregious of which are
listed (and documented)
here.
"America will prioritize Israel..."
-FBI Director Kash Patel
WE CAN TAKE A STEP BACK from the
particulars of the ugly burdens imposed upon America
over the decades on behalf of Israel and consider
the ills of Zionist influence on our policy and
politics through the lens provided by George
Washington in his farewell address upon leaving the
presidency:
"...[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."
(See a full discussion of these wise
words and their relevance to today's America
here.)
ALL TOLD, the increasingly strong grip
Zionism has secured in the federal government and
among a disturbingly large number of Republican
influencers, operators and voters-- much of it being
accomplished or supported by a blindness to how
abhorrent the Zionist delusion is to America's
founding principles, and to the false notion of a
"Judeo-Christian" common culture-- has led this
great and fundamentally good country into complicity
in monstrous crimes along with a weakening or
outright abandonment of many of its most important
safeguards of the people's liberties. We will soon
pass the point of recovery from these stumbles.
"Those who can make you believe
absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
-Voltaire
I love America. Sadly, over the course
of my 70 years I have watched her slide further and
further away from her lofty beginnings and further
and further into a deep mire of corruption. During
all that time, but most especially during the last
24 years since the 9/11 "new Pearl Harbor" event
that served as the justification US attacks on
"terrorists" who somehow all turned out to be
people
who hindered Israeli ambitions, that slide has been
greased by Zionist delusions blinding the eyes of
many people.
It is my hope that these reflections
and observations might help shake the fog out of
some of those eyes.

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.

There will be no peace in Gaza. Only
the temporary absence of war.
By Chris Hedges
There is no shortage of
failed peace plans in occupied Palestine, all of
them incorporating detailed phases and timelines,
going back to the presidency of Jimmy Carter. They
end the same way. Israel gets what it wants
initially — in the latest case the release of the
remaining Israeli hostages — while it ignores and
violates every other phase until it resumes its
attacks on the Palestinian people.
It is a sadistic game. A
merry-go-round of death. This ceasefire, like those
of the past, is a commercial break. A moment when
the condemned man is allowed to smoke a cigarette
before being gunned down in a fusillade of bullets.
Once Israeli hostages are
released, the genocide will continue. I do not know
how soon. Let’s hope the mass slaughter is delayed
for at least a few weeks. But a pause in the
genocide is the best we can anticipate. Israel is on
the cusp of emptying Gaza, which has been all but
obliterated under two years of relentless bombing.
It is not about to be stopped. This is the
culmination of the Zionist dream. The United States,
which has
given Israel a staggering $22 billion in
military aid since Oct, 7, 2023, will not shut down
its pipeline, the only tool that might halt the
genocide.
Israel, as it always does,
will blame Hamas and the Palestinians for failing to
abide by the agreement, most probably a refusal —
true or not — to disarm, as the proposal demands.
Washington, condemning Hamas’s supposed violation,
will give Israel the green light to continue its
genocide to create Trump’s fantasy of a
Gaza Riviera and “special economic zone” with
its “voluntary” relocation of Palestinians in
exchange for digital tokens.
IN MY OPENING ARTICLE OF THIS
NEWSLETTER, I offer as one reason the affliction of
Zionism in our politics and policies is so evil is
that America is thereby co-opted into complicity in
monstrosities. Chris Hedges does a nice job in the
piece above of explaining one such sustained evil
deed, by which America has sullied itself with lies
and hypocrisy and betrayal, earning the distrust and
contempt of the rest of the world.
Thousands of words could be spent
listing other crimes born of the same
delusion-fueled subornation to Zionist claptrap,
lies and propaganda to many of which American
politicians have made us all accomplices. (Those
interested can find some of those thousands of words
here.)
Hedges wrote his dark predictions and
accompanying historical observations back in early
October, but
events have proven him out, with hundreds more
dead Palestinians from Israeli ceasefire violations
over the last three weeks or so. Although routinely
disputed by Israel and its supporters, the
culpability for such violations is clear to any
long-time observer of the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict, and made more so by an Israeli policy of
barring journalists from Gaza.
We must sever our shameful connection
with this beast of the Middle East. In fact, our
only related action in the region should be the use
of our military might to defend Israeli victims
against the ugly little apartheid and genocidal
state's onslaughts (such
as this recent one in Lebanon).
Until that severing can be made to
happen by reclaiming control over our politics and
policy from the amoral and lunatic Zionists whose
hands are currently on the levers of power, each
right-thinking American should personally step up
and do what he or she can to reduce the harm being
done.
All that is needed to accomplish that righteous
and critically-important regulation is that those who have already received
CtC's
liberating and empowering revelations help the rest of the
American population quickly understand
the
truth about the tax and discover that even though Washington
may at present be a Leviathan in the grip of
the
wicked, this need not remain the case.
Bell-ringing efforts like this are easier than ever now, with the US Supreme Court
having just reaffirmed its 108-year-old ruling
in Brushaber v. Union Pacific RR. Co. and
having
freshly acknowledged the accuracy of
CtC.
Remember, the arising and sustenance of
the Leviathan state monster is a direct result of
the successful mis-administration
of the US income tax laws.
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.
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.
It's time to stop
whistling past the graveyard and start using the
powerful and important tools with which our wise
ancestors equipped us. That said, these days are
also a good time to be keeping your powder dry.

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

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

bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?
Do you

Kings. In 1924, Wyoming elects America's first female governor. In 1952, the
National Security Agency is established. In 1956, Soviet troops enter Hungary
to crush the October Revolution. In 1979, Iranian students seize the United
States Embassy (and CIA station) in Tehran in reaction to the Carter
administration's decision to allow the despotic CIA-installed Shah of Iran--
deposed just months earlier after 26 years of U.S.-supported tyrannical rule--
to enter the United States for cancer treatment (despite warnings against doing
so by the embassy's diplomatic staff). 90 hostages are taken from the embassy,
including 53 Americans.

Hey, Gamers!
WAKEN TO THE REAL-LIFE ADVENTURE IN WHICH YOU
ARE UNKNOWINGLY IMMERSED! Put down your controller and
listen!
You are surrounded by an actual battle between
villains, monsters and true heroes, all simply concealed
from you by
sophisticated spells which also keep you from
engaging in the fight.
There are real great deeds to be done,
and real treasures to be had for your efforts, and
frankly, your real future
is at stake. You just have to gain "the sight" in order to
penetrate the illusions.
Visit
losthorizons.com to get the counter-spells and get onto
the real field of battle!

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...

the Confederate States of America. In 1913, Mohandas Gandhi is arrested in
South Africa for leading a march protesting the treatment of Indian "guest"

the UN passes a resolution condemning the South African practice of apartheid,
and calling on member nations to cease military and economic relations with the
country.
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...

the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the

Rontgen discovers the X-ray. In 1923, Adolph Hitler and his Nazis attempt

sector of a billion dollars, this boondoggle was abandoned, and the
Roosevelt central planners moved on to others ways of prolonging the
depression. In 1966, former Massachusetts Attorney General Edward Brooke
becomes the first black United States Senator.

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."
-Samuel
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.
