Question About Affects of Tribal Membership on Political Status

by Anna Von Reitz

The question has been asked--- "But, if you and your husband were adopted by the Winnebago and Tlingit tribes respectively, doesn't that make you U.S. citizens?"

The short answer is, "No, it does not."

There has been an effort in recent years to muddy the waters as the UNITED STATES, INC. has tried to claim anyone and anything with a pulse as one of its citizens.  The fact is that Reservations are Federal Enclaves and anyone born on a Reservation is deemed to be a "United States Citizen" for that reason.

The further fact is that citizenship as I have reiterated numerous times is a political status quite apart from the issue of nationality.

American States and Nations Bank Update

From Anna Von Reitz

I have established the American States and Nations Bank--- actually three banks--- (1) a repository bank, (2) a sovereign international bank and (3) a state bank operated under Article X. These serve different purposes, but overall serve the same end of securing American assets, expediting trade, and promoting the use of lawful money---- basically all asset-based currencies.

My concern is that over half the world either currently is or will soon be trading in currencies backed by precious metals. Only 1% of Americans have any gold, which leaves them unable to trade with all the countries that are or will be using gold. It also concerns me that the abuse of legal tender may lead to problems that leave Mom and Pop and the Kids back home unable to purchase simple things at the grocery store.

Reply to "American Lawyer"--- by Judge Anna

This is a reply to an article in RumorMill News by "American Lawyer" in which he asks why "the Big Bad Wolf" is bothering to pick on poor little David Crayford.  Mr. Crayford got picked on because he accused "America" of counterfeiting trillions of dollars overseas, when in fact the culprit was the UNITED STATES, INC. and America was the target/victim of the crime.

The better question is why would anyone take anything "American Lawyer" has to say seriously?

For SOME Indian Chiefs - Your claims violate Your Traditions

by Anna Von Reitz

I grew up in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, where a large Winnebago Reservation is located, across the Black River from my Great-Grandfather's Homestead.

He was a good man and saw no reason that the Natives should not continue to come and go and enjoy the land as they always had, and as it happened, his Homestead claim included the Winnebago Summer Hunting Grounds. 

So, every summer, they came from their Winter Camps and they continued to share the land with him and his children.  He gave them store goods and they gave him wild game and other presents in exchange.  It was a good life and peaceful and everyone loved each other.  They gave him a Winnebago name.  He gave them English names. 

And then the Government got involved
