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

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

May 25- In 1787, the convention called to revise the Articles of Confederation-- primarily by authorizing the federal creation to claim a piece of the action when its property, powers and privileges were profitably exploited (duties, excises and tariffs), to impose apportioned taxes on the states, and to regulate the commerce of state governments with each other, with foreign nations and with the Indian tribes-- begins.  In 1837, Quebec revolts against British rule.  In 1961, John F. Kennedy proposes landing an American on the moon before the end of the decade.  In 1977, 'Star Wars', the first installment in a wildly-popular six-part story of rebellion against an arrogant imperialist Leviathan, is released.  In 2012, SpaceX's 'Dragon' becomes the first private spacecraft to reach the International Space Station.  In 2018, political prisoner Doreen Hendrickson, suffering her second prison imprisonment for refusing to swear to belief in the truth of government-serving false statements on orders of a federal court at the request of the Department of Justice (sic), is released.  In 2020, a man named George Floyd dies while in police custody in Minneapolis. Floyd had several times a toxic dose of fentanyl in his system, and chronic heart problems as well, but his death, which came after he resisted arrest and was restrained on the ground pending the arrival of EMS (at his own request), was ascribed to the restraining officer(s). Riots erupted across American in response, under the leadership of members of the Democrat Party and an organization called 'Black Lives Matter'.

 

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

 

NOTE: I don't even try to include in these anniversary compilations items involved in the "COVID-19" scam, hysteria and exploitation. There would be way too much to say about all that to suit this format. But find my summary of that history, and related observations posted throughout 2020 and 2021, here. Same thing regarding the genocide in Palestine-- find related posts compiled here; and those concerning the proxy war against Russia at the expense of Ukraine, here.

HEY, People!

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

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

I Feel Like The Bluesmobile: Update And A Request

In the shop a bit longer, but meantime still trying to contribute to the conversation.

IT'S NOW NINETEEN WEEKS since the surgery on my right shoulder. Recovery has been slow, but it's coming along, and I thank everyone for all the good wishes. I expect to more-or-less be back to normal within a couple more months.

In the meantime, while newsletters continue to be more occasional than regular, I'd be very pleased if as many of you as can do so would follow me on X, where I do continue to post regularly (even if only within the 300-character limit, and more often than not in reply to something posted by someone else). That medium provides great opportunities to put important material in front of a large audience-- but only if as many of you as possible help by reposting my posts. As has been the case continuously since I first created an account long ago on what was then Twitter, I am heavily "shadow-banned". The only way my posts will be widely seen is if lots of you "follow" me and then make a point of seeking out my posts (which will get quickly buried in your feed if you follow others, as well) and "like" them, "repost" them, (and comment in response to them, if you are so moved).

Needless to say, many of my posts are of a political or policy orientation, and not everyone will necessarily agree with my views on all fronts. But many are focused on the law (tax law and other), as well-- all of which should find universal agreement within this community. Whichever of any you choose to second, I will very much appreciate the amplification.

Disenfranchisement In Kentucky

...a dramatic, heinous crime which demands attention.

ELECTION RIGGING (OR THEFT, OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT) is an act of enslavement. That may sound overly dramatic, but it is not so at all. When your ability to fairly express yourself through your vote is nullified, you are made subject to someone else's will-- that is, enslaved.

Think about it. Think HARD about it. The enslavement by rigged election is qualitatively no different in any respect from enslavement by invasion and conquest. Either way, you become subject to rulers (or rules) in the adoption of which you had no actual say, however much the presentation of that fact might be unaccompanied by clamor and drama in the rigging case as compared to the manner in which the subjugation by invasion and conquest would be occasioned.

The crime in such subjugation is obvious when considering the rigging of an election that your side would have otherwise won. But it is just as evil if your vote would have been in the minority in a proper accounting. As is clearly understood by anyone who has encountered bureaucratic gaslighting meant to suggest that their complaining voice is the only one, honest elections measure and reveal the depth of both support and opposition in any given contest, with the accurate expression of each being equally significant to all parties involved and to the proper crafting and administration of policy going forward.

Too often forgotten is that ballots are really just substitutes for bullets, by which the side with the numbers to prevail is more peacefully revealed then in what otherwise would be a bloody and hatred-inspiring contest to determine who will make the rules regarding the matter at issue. In the American system, the peaceful substitute of ballots for bullets is further perfected by the prior imposition of Constitutions with which any winning majority's exercise of power is meant to be strictly limited.

That point about the true nature and purpose of ballots is famously summarized by Mao Tse-tung as, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." By its light the importance of honesty in elections can be clearly seen, the violation of which is not only a moral crime by which a minority (and one manifestly unlikely to respect and obey the limits called for by Constitutions) takes power over a majority, but by which a polity is rendered inherently unstable and certain to devolve rapidly into violent strife, oppression and revolution.

To sum this all up, election-rigging (or theft, or whatever one might want to call it) is a heinous crime. Indeed, it is a crime at the pinnacle of heinousness, as it subverts the overall legitimacy of the law at whatever level the rigging takes place. Because of the nature of politics, election-rigging at even a low-level (local offices or issues, for instance) sets in motion a rot which spreads upwards toward the top of the power pyramid.

Properly considered, I think election-rigging should be a hanging offense.

SO, WHY DO I CARRY ON about election-rigging today? Well, because last week America saw the outcome of a grotesque example of that dark art in the primary race for the Republican candidate in Kentucky's 4th Congressional district-- the district held for the last 14 years by Thomas Massie.

Massie, far and away the most solidly Constitution-respecting member of Congress since Ron Paul held office, had lately drawn the ire of Donald Trump's Zionist puppet-masters and their MAGA-identifying minions. Though a supporter of Republican congressional initiatives ~91% of the time, Massie balked at Trump 47's profligate federal spending, extra-judicial murders, warmongering, and persistent concealment of the Epstein files (among other irresponsible and/or illegal policies)-- and particularly and most significantly, at Trump's limitless, servile subordination to the will of Israeli officials, including endless diversion of American blood and treasure on behalf of those foreign interests even to the point of financing and facilitating annexations and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the West Bank, southern Lebanon and portions of Syria among many other crimes.

Massie particularly incensed the Trump cult and its nurturers and exploiters by revealing in a July, 2025 interview with Tucker Carlson that virtually every member of Congress was constantly subject to the guidance and exhortations of his or her own handler from AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee)-- enormous sums from which finance the political campaigns of each and are understood to be ready to be shifted to the support of a challenger at the next election upon the first hint of disobedience.

Massie further inflamed Trump & Co. by leading the charge to force publication of the Epstein files, in which the jaw-droppingly huge criminal conspiracy of, frankly, nauseating felonies and to-the-bone political corruption involves, and has been conducted for the benefit of, Trump and his puppet-masters and fellow-travelers.

IN RESPONSE TO THOMAS MASSIE'S America-serving positions, the creatures living under the rocks he had been turning over contrived a primary opponent for Massie, a fellow named Ed Gallrein. Gallrein refused to participate in a single debate during the campaign, couldn't draw a crowd for a rally or any other purpose, and received the vast majority of the financing of his candidacy from a handful of Zionist billionaires, who ended up spending many $millions on his primary race (no total available at time of writing, but at least $25,000,000), making it far and away the most expensive primary contest in American history.

Despite Thomas Massie having decisive leads in every demographic from age 18 to age 55, having a consistent record of winning his opposed primaries by margins of ~3-to-1, and Donald Trump's current approval rating laying prostrate at ~35%, in the end, Gallrein was the declared winner of the primary, after being the near exclusive beneficiary of a bit over 10,000 mail-in ballots added in to the count after the polls had closed (a number just above Gallrein's margin of victory).

So, was Ed Gallrein the beneficiary of a rigged election (and the people of Kentucky's 4th district-- and by extension, the American people overall, the victims of a rigged election)? Well...

As noted, Gallrein really didn't compete for the vote. No debate appearances, no interviews, few attempts at rallies, lots of false and scurrilous accusations against Massie. Mostly, the Gallrein campaign relied upon a massive saturation media campaign financed by Miraim Adelson, Paul Singer and John Paulson which spread those false accusations and drummed Gallrein's name into the heads of mostly elderly voters:

The Gallrein campaign was a charade, really-- an exercise with no organic energy and reeking of a corrupt, "fix is in" vibe, as nicely illustrated by the sparse and lackadaisical attendance at his campaign HQ on election day.

It may be that no actual fraudulent ballots were involved. It may be that the multi-million dollar smear campaign against Thomas Massie actually swayed enough previously uninvolved voters to turn out to make for twice as many votes cast in this Republican primary as any in the past.

But even if true, and the results were from actual valid votes cast, it is clear that the outcome was bought, not earned. Indeed, it must be concluded that even the Gallrein side believed that he could not win on merit, but only by what might be called a marketing hypnosis project (and one directed at an elderly segment of the electorate especially susceptible to such techniques).

Further, of course, with the source of funding for the project being overtly Israel-firsters the Gallrein "win" amounts to the purchase of a congressional seat by, or on behalf of, a foreign state, even if no outright fraud took place. Since no American would knowingly vote to accomplish that result, it must be assumed that at the very least the outcome of the Kentucky 4th 2026 Republican primary was a matter of "engineered consent"-- that is, rigged, but just in a subtler way than usual.

Thomas Massie has announced that he will not challenge the declared result of the election. So be it, for him, and I admire his gentlemanliness (and understand the virtues of that call, from Massie's personal standpoint).

But the rest of us are victims here, too. I think we should treat this matter the way a dog treats a bone.

(Btw, for more insight and thoughtful analysis of the Massie primary affair, see the 'Other Voices' section of this newsletter.)

The Enormous Threat Of AI

Seductive and destructive, as this sort of thing always is.

BEEN IN AN AI DATA CENTER PROTEST already? You should have been, and you should do so whenever you can manage it, until the roll-out of that particular modern plague has been abandoned. Likewise, regarding Flock Safety cameras (and now microphones and drones). These projects-- which are each mass surveillance and control mechanisms-- are pernicious assaults on individual rights and the rule of law.

The Flock project is an obvious panopticon move (and obviously illegal in light of an educated and honest reading of the Fourth Amendment, from which the USSC has unfortunately drifted away over recent decades but which has its best chance of revival in the current originalist ascendancy, especially while Thomas remains on the court). It might be called the blunt object threat.

AI, on the other hand-- while sharing the Flock panopticon ambition by other means (meta-data tracking), and thus also vulnerable in that respect to a proper application of the Fourth's proscriptions-- is much more threatening, and in much subtler ways. AI is the poison-in-your-cocktail threat.

TO BEGIN WITH, there are the threat aspects which have received a fair amount of attention in the public discourse concerning the replacement of human workers in many fields-- especially white-collar jobs. There are many reasons to be worried about that prospect, with the chief one being the drop in the quality of work product that is sure to result. However enthusiastically-touted and encyclopedic in what we'll call "knowledge" (for lack of a better term), AI-- so far, at least-- isn't even remotely on par with any competent human at any but the most rudimentary tasks, and is, instead, a standard-lowering mechanism.

I have had occasion to see this performance deficit and degradation in action on multiple occasions over the last year when fielding inquires from readers asking why ChatGBT or Grok or whatever offers quirky or incorrect answers on the subject of the income tax.

Unrecognized by those inquiring of AI is that software can do no better than its inputs provide. This means no better than the one providing its inputs or directing its data accumulations knows to provide, as well as vulnerability to the facts that information is a tool and those providing it have agendas to the service of which some, at least, will unscrupulously customize the information provided; and getting to the truth of many important subjects-- especially where matters that are of interest to "officialdom" or institutional expertise are concerned--  often requires digging through hedges of obfuscations and outright lies behind which it is deeply buried.

In other words, AI is a classic example of the "garbage in, garbage out" dynamic. (See more on that GIGO thing here.)

No one should resort to AI for information or anlaysis on any subject-- it is simply neither reliable (in that it can be, and often is, ill-informed) nor trustworthy (in that it can be, and often is, manipulated by its programmers).

BUT BEYOND THE HAZARDS of AI replacing human workers and producing subpar work product lies a much more significant threat-- the inevitable tendency in an AI-activated world of manipulable centralized digital data to become the sole source of knowledge for the majority of the people.

Julian Assange summed up this threat very concisely in the video segment embedded in this X post (and unfortunately cluttered up with the poster's additions). If not arrested in its tracks, and quickly, this consolidation of information, in concert with the dumbing-down of Western societies by way of the government school systems through the hands of which the vast majority of citizens pass, means that those societies will be under the total control of whoever controls the database.

Right now, we can, for instance, look at the data on Thomas Massie's performance in past elections and use that information in analyzing the likelihood of this latest primary election having been on the up-and-up. But how will that be done when the only source of past performance information is in the hands of those who sought Massie's ouster?

Eschew AI as a utility for yourself, and scorn any AI offering you encounter from others. Fight these data center efforts not just because of their foul effects on the environment and public resources but because of the underlying purpose for which they are being built.

Save books, and acquire more-- especially records and other information sources.

Relatedly, use cash whenever possible. Really, go out of your way to use cash (and secondarily, checks) for all payments possible. Use charge cards only when really necessary, and never use (or accept) outright digital payment methods.

Understand, of a piece with the AI information consolidation threat is the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) scheme meant to eliminate cash (not by outlawing it, but by fostering into place a society in which no vendor accepts it, or it has been made impossibly difficult to rely upon). The plan is to replace any kind of individually-controlled money with a digital "currency" under the control of the state (or whoever controls the state). Accounts of CBDC, or its uses for particular purposes, can be shut down at the push of a button for any disfavored individual or for everyone at once, and all uses are recorded as a device for tracking the movements and behavior of every person.

Fight like hell on these things, my friends; you and your children are in the crosshairs, right now.

Critically, understand that the state is the tool of those seeking to fasten these chains upon you. Hence, along with the rest of the action items laid out above, USE THIS WEAPON OF THE LAW!

Share it. Explain it. Exemplify it.

These are battles that can be won, if vigorously and promptly prosecuted.

Indeed, much of the general public is already activated against the Flock spy devices and the data centers (and the vehicle "kill switch" project, as well, which is also a part of the centralization/surveillance/control program). That activation just needs to sparked into flame, and well-fed with more widespread understanding of the real threat these assaults represent.

Be the spark, and feed the fire.

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...

A Response to the Israel Lobby Defeating Thomas Massie and Killing MAGA

by Tucker Carlson

Afterword

AS USUAL, TUCKER CARLSON'S TAKE is a masterclass in holistic analysis and articulation of the major events of our times. Tucker's guest in the second half of this presentation contributes greatly, as well. Once again, we all must acknowledge our debt to the foreign-aligned ownership of Fox News for liberating Carlson from the strictures of his position with that cable channel and launching him into the freedom, limitless scope and enormous influence of his new independent pulpit.

No doubt those creatures at Fox grind their teeth and tear their hair daily at the same thought, and we can be grateful for that, as well.

YOU ALL WILL HAVE READ my commentary on the Massie-Gallrein contest, above, and so I will add little more on the subject here. Suffice it to say that the Massie-Gallrein affair emphasizes that we in an existential war to determine whether American institutions will serve the interests of the state of Israel or our own-- which are most definitely NOT the same thing.

The last time I wrote in this space, three weeks into the occupied-US-Israeli war on Iran, I asked, HOW DO YOU FEEL about being the source of funding for an act of aggression that is not only murdering strangers who have never done America harm but also threatening the well-being of the entire planet, as the disruption of the world economy-- and the response escalation ladder that comes with such a momentous calamity-- looms before us?

This is still the question every right-thinking American should be asking themselves, or, if CtC-educated and -activated, should be asking every other person they know.

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.

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-- and who have just strengthened their grip with the removal of Thomas Massie from Congress-- each right-thinking American should personally step up and do what he or she can to reduce the harm being done. Happily, doing so is easy.

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 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 More Power?

"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!"

Learn The Liberating Truth About The Tax

*****

*****

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

 

I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?

 

Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (sixteenth) edition of CtC!

C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy!

If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

(Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is No Such Agency!)

About The Author

Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare "contributions" withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in 'Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America' (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students.

Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, 'Upholding the Law And Other Observations'. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan's largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country.

Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm.

Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website.

On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years.

Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book.
