Everyone please read the above statement as many times as necessary to glean the grist of it.
Our two (2) foreign Federal Subcontractors have, for their own benefit and enrichment, continued to promote the idea that the Civil War never ended, and that we, the American people, are unknown persons "presumed to be" Enemy Combatants until proven otherwise.
As shill Psyops Officer Robert Horton recounts, they also persist in claiming that the Civil War, which was an undeclared commercial mercenary conflict and not a "war" at all --- was a proper war, allowing them to claim immunity and right of conquest when it wasn't, doesn't, and never did.
This is all just bunko and legally convenient, as-- if this deceit is accepted--- it allows the Territorial U.S. Citizens to presume that we are Municipal citizens of the United States, subject to search and seizure, and it allows the Municipal United States Government (set up as the Municipal Corporation of the District of Columbia) to presume that we are subject to them and that we owe all their debts.
Neither thing happens to be true.
What is true is that we, the people of this country, and our legitimate government in international jurisdiction, The United States of America [Unincorporated] and our national governments vested in our State Assemblies, are still here, still operating, now in Session ---and together with our members, due every jot of every "Federal" Constitution.
That is what is true and all the rest of this criminal bunk is just that--- bunk.
I am publishing here for the edification of the entire world the stripped down historical research and timeline necessary to come to these same conclusions for yourselves and to explicitly detail how and why this country is still messing around with and suffering from "legal issues" created by an undeclared mercenary conflict that ended over a century and a half ago.
Our deepest thanks to Geoffrey Jacob Caputo and the State Nationals Association for this knock-down, drag-out, and absolutely correct step-by-step analysis of the history, legal actions, and results --- which was completed many years ago, and which stands to inform everyone worldwide:

II. Constitutional Violations of the 39th & 40th Congresses in Imposing The Reconstruction Acts & Amend.

Art. V § 5 of The Constitution of The United States of America (CFUSA) “and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.” Violation: The House Journal, March 3, 1866 - Page 353 1. Art. III § 3 CFUSA says, “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort” Violation: The Reconstruction Acts 1. The Reconstruction Acts were inconsistent with criteria for martial law provisions as required in The Constitution for the United States of America. See EX PARTE MILLIGAN 71 US 2 (1866) 39th Congress had no evidence of the states being in rebellion. Civil authority was restored in that the courts of the Southern States were open and the slaves were free pursuant to the 13th amendment. The only Martial Rule which can exist during times of peace according to the Constitution is the code of laws enacted by Congress for the government of the national forces in which martial law could only apply to the soldier and not to the citizen, then the Reconstruction acts were unconstitutional because it applied military law only to the citizen and not to the soldier. 1. Art. I §. 9 cl. 3 CFUSA: says “ No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.” Violation: Everyone in the southern states was, in a blanket fashion, declared guilty of rebellion and penalized via unlawful military rule. 1. Art. IV §. 4 CFUSA says “ The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.” Violation: The 39th Congress unlawfully denied the Southern States a republican form of government by acting contrary to Art. IV §. 4 1. Art. 1 §. 8 cl.17 CFUSA that the Congress is “To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of Particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dockYards and other needful Buildings . . .” Violation: The 39th Congress exercised exclusive legislation (Reconstruction Acts) outside their District unlawfully. 1. Art IV § 3 says that, “New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.” Violation: The 39th Congress formed a new unlawful, defacto state within each of the several dejure states without the consent of the Dejure state bodies politic. Additional Notes DE JURE. Rightfully; lawfully; by legal title. Contrasted with de facto 4 Bla. Com. 77 How a Dejure state, such as Florida, is formed: [5 Stat. 742.] Statute II. Chap. XLVII.-- An Act for the admission of the states of Iowa and Florida into the Union . . . whereas, the people of the Territory of Florida did, in like manner, by their delegates, on the eleventh day of January, eighteen hundred and thirty-nine, form for themselves a constitution and State government [Act of March 3, 1845, ch. 75 and ch 76.], both of which said constitutions are republican; and said conventions having asked the admission of their respective Territories into the Union as States, on equal footing with the original States: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled , That the States of Iowa and Florida be, and the same are hereby, declared to be States of the United States of America, and are hereby admitted into the Union on equal footing with the original States, in all respects whatsoever. Florida’s original government could only be abolished by the consent of the people: Florida Constitution of 1838 Article I Section 2 : That all political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and established for their benefit; and, therefore, they have, at all times, an inalienable and indefeasible right to alter or abolish their form of government, in such manner as they may deem expedient. The Reconstruction Acts were constitutionally repugnant war powers which abolished The Southern States’ original governments against their consent and formed a new state/nation/body politic composed of “14th Amendment U.S. Citizens” 15 STAT 73 (June 25, 1868) says , "WHEREAS the people of North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida have, in pursuance of the provisions of an act entitled `An act for the more efficient government of the rebel States,' passed March 2nd, eighteen hundred and sixty-seven, and the acts supplementary thereto [see note 4, post], framed constitutions of State government which are republican, and have adopted said constitutions by large majorities of the votes [363 U.S. 121, 136] cast at the elections held for the ratification or rejection of the same: Therefore, "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That each of the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida, shall be entitled and admitted to representation in Congress as a State of the Union when the legislature of such State shall have duly ratified the amendment to the Constitution of the United States proposed by the Thirty-ninth Congress, and known as Article fourteen upon the following fundamental conditions . . .” De facto government. One that maintains itself by a display of force against the will of the rightful legal government and is successful, at least temporarily, in overturning the institutions of the rightful legal government by setting up its own in lieu thereof. Black’s Law Dictionary 4th Edition (1951) page 504. Wortham v. Walker, 133 Tex. 255, 128 S.W.2d 1138, 1145 As a result, NEW DEFACTO STATES were formed, because new constitutions and new legislatures were formed via the 14th amendment: Coleman v. Miller, 507 U. S. 448, 59 S. Ct. 972 says ,“The legislatures of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina had rejected the amendment in November and December, 1866. New governments were erected in those States (and in others) under the direction of Congress. The new legislatures ratified the amendment, that of North Carolina on July 4, 1868, that of South Carolina on July 9, 1868, and that of Georgia on July 21, 1868." The object of the Civil from 1861 to 1865 was not for the Southern States to be conquered or subjugated, and was not intended to impair the rights of the states: The House Journal - July 22, 1861. p.123 / Senate Journal - July 25, 1861.p.92 both read, “Mr. Crittenden submitted the following resolution, viz: . . .that this war is not waged on their part in any spirit of oppression, or for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, or purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights or established institutions of those States, but to defend and maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and to preserve the Union with all the dignity, equality, and rights of the several States unimpaired; and that as soon as these objects are accomplished the war ought to cease.” The 14th Amendment created a dual nationality status in which Federal Citizenship status was conjoined with an inseperable State “resident/citizen” status. This formed a new body politic which impaired the original body politic of those who possessed the singular state national and [citizen] status by disenfranchising them from voting. (see notes in III) III. Dejure vs. Defacto Status 1. Federal Citizenship Versus State Citizenship a. The term “citizen of the United States” never referred to a unified National form of citizenship, but that of a singular “state” citizenship status until the passage of the 14th Amendment. “ The slaves recently emancipated by proclamation, and subsequently by Constitutional Amendment, have no civil status. They should be made citizens. We do not, by making them citizens, make them voters,—we do not, in this Constitutional Amendment, attempt to force them upon Southern white men as equals at the ballot-box; but we do intend that they shall be admitted to citizenship, that they shall have the protection of the laws, that they shall not, any more than the rebels shall, be deprived of life, of liberty, of property, without due process of law, and that “they shall not be denied the equal protection of the law.” And in making this extension of citizenship, we are not confining the breadth and scope of our efforts to the negro. It is for the white man as well. We intend to make citizenship National. Heretofore, a man has been a citizen of the United States because he was a citizen of some-one of the States: now, we propose to reverse that, and make him a citizen of any State where he chooses to reside, by defining in advance his National citizenship—and our Amendment declares that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the States wherein they reside.” This Amendment will prove a great beneficence to this generation, and to all who shall succeed us in the rights of American citizenship; and we ask the people of the revolted States to consent to this condition as an antecedent step to their re-admission to Congress with Senators and Representatives.” POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS LEGISLATIVE, DIPLOMATIC, AND POPULAR 1856-1886 § 61. The Reconstruction Problem- JAMES G. BLAINE. NORWICH, CONN. THE HENRY BILL PUBLISHING COMPANY 1887 b. Before the passage of Amend. XIV the United States, for citizenship and nationality purposes, was considered to be a plural collective of separate nations. 1. 2 STAT 153 , An act to establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and to repeal the acts heretofore passéd on that subject, says “Be it enacted, &c, That any alien, being a free white person, may be admitted to become a citizen of the United States, or any of them…” 2. Amendment XIII. §1. says “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.” c. After the passage of Amend. XIV the United States, for citizenship and nationality purposes, was considered to be a singular entity. 1. 8 USC § 1483 (a) says , “Except as provided in paragraphs (6) and (7) of §1481 (a) of this title, no national of the United States can lose United States nationality under this chapter while within the United States or any of its outlying possessions” d. The language in the Civil Rights Act of 1866 (14 Stat. 27) set the premise for this aforementioned unified National Citizenship as decreed in Amend. XIV. 1. CONGRESS'S POWER TO ENFORCE AMEND. XIV RIGHTS: LESSONS FROM FEDERAL REMEDIES THE FRAMERS ENACTED by Robert J. Kaczorowski Copyright © 2005 by the President and Fellows of Harvard College Harvard Journal on Legislation (JOL) - Volume 42, Number 1, Winter 2005 says that : “Because the provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1866 are central to the meaning and scope of the Amend. XIV , it is necessary to examine the statute's provisions. In brief, the Civil Rights Act of 1866 conferred U.S. citizenship on all Americans” e. There is evidence that the several Union states had power to confer their respective state citizenship before & around the time of the Civil Rights Act and the “citizen of the United States” status written in the Civil Rights Act was only a unified Federal citizenship. 1. March 27, 1866 - Johnson’s Veto of the Civil Rights Act - Senate Journal, p.279: says that, “By the first section of the bill ; ‘all persons born in the United States, and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are declared to be citizens of the United States’. It does not purport to declare or confer any other right of citizenship than federal citizenship. It does not purport to give these classes of persons any status as citizens of States, except that which may result from their status as citizens of the United States. The power to confer the right of State citizenship is just as exclusively with the several States as the power to confer the right of federal citizenship is with Congress.” 2. Ex Parte Knowles 5 Cal. 300 (1855) "A citizen of any one of the States of the union, is held to be, and called a citizen of the United States, although technically and abstractly there is no such thing. To conceive a citizen of the United States who is not a citizen of some one of the States, is totally foreign to the idea, and inconsistent with the proper construction and common understanding of the expression as use in the Constitution, which must be deduced from its various other provisions. The object then to be obtained, by the exercise of the power of naturalization, was to make citizens of the respective States” 3. Sharon v. Hill, (1885) 26 F 337, 343."Prior to the adoption of this amendment, strictly speaking, there were no citizens of the United States, but only some one of them. Congress had the power "to establish an uniform rule of naturalization," but not the power to make a naturalized alien a citizen of any state. But the states generally provided that such persons might, on sufficient residence therein, become citizens thereof, and then the courts held, ab convenienti, rather than otherwise, that they became ipso facto citizens of the United States”.
If you are living in the United States and NOT declared to be a state national or State Citizen and one of the people belonging to our nation-states, you are "ipsofacto" presumed to be a citizen of the United States, and, under the 14th Amendment, "citizens of the United States" are criminals and slaves by definition.
Now, this entire "set up" is conceived in fraud and is in violation of the Constitutions, but we have to individually and as an entire people, address this situation, expose it, and finish the Reconstruction before this Mess is put to bed.

Red Alert! Red Alert! Red Alert! No Meeting in Utah on Saturday!
By Anna Von Reitz
I have received a very nasty and
incorrect "Meeting Notice" that purports to be a meeting of The Utah Assembly.
Don't go.
The Biden Administration has ordered
a crackdown on patriot groups that they have arbitrarily labeled
"insurrectionists".
The ONLY way that you can be labeled
as "insurrectionists" is if you allow Federal U.S. Citizens and/or Municipal
citizens of the United States to be active members of your Assembly.
As a result these people are
attempting to infiltrate and represent themselves as part of The Utah Assembly,
when in fact, they should be attending their own District Assembly while they
are choosing to live in the State of Utah or the STATE OF UTAH, and are actually
not living in Utah, our State of the Union, at all. They have "gone to sea" and
are now offering to interfere in land and soil affairs.
Do not allow this.
Draw the line. Anyone working for the
Federales, anyone who hasn't published and recorded their 1779 Declaration,
anyone who is a Federal Dependent, cannot represent The Utah Assembly, cannot be
part of the State leadership, and cannot make any decisions "for" Utah in any
international venue.
Otherwise, I very much fear that
those who are participating in these activities will be rounded up and targeted
under False Legal Presumptions, just as the Colorado Nine were.
I wash my hands of any such endeavor
and any such group.
I also object to any claim that
people have been jailed as a result of anything I told them or encouraged them
to do. I have repeatedly told everyone that changing your political status is
not a Magic Bullet and it is not retroactive. People who come into the Assembly
with pre-existing legal problems must be made aware of the fact that prior legal
issues will remain.
And not blame anyone else, if they
had other expectations.
If you change your political status
in an apparent effort to avoid criminal or civil charges in a foreign
jurisdiction, it looks self-serving, and will be discounted as such. Otherwise,
we would have real criminals taking advantage and hopping back and forth between
jurisdictions, trying to avoid the consequences of their actions.
We have also made it clear that
people must study and learn and practice so that they are able to answer for
themselves.
Wake up and realize the situation
that you are in. These yahoos are claiming that the Civil War never ended, and
that you are suspected of being in league with one "side" or the other.
This is very convenient as it allows
both sides to shoot at you and bring charges against you. Unless you wake up and
learn how to properly identify yourself, and get that on the record, you can
imagine the results.
Utah needs to stop messing around and
do what all the other States have done. Focus on the work of bringing people
home to their proper jurisdiction and establishing the General Assembly, the
International Assembly, the Courts, and the Assembly Militia --- so that you can
self-govern as a State of the Union, and stop this god-awful, infernal, and
apparently never ending controversy where none exists.
If people want to function as U.S.
Citizens they are obligated by law and custom to attend their District
Assemblies. Ditto the case of Municipal citizens of the United States --- they
are REQUIRED to attend their Municipal District Assemblies --- not ours. This is
what the Bevans Declaration is for. Use it.
The sooner you separate the sheep
from the goats, the better for all concerned.
And until this is done do not attend
any meetings, especially any physical
meetings.
