Twenty-Third Sunday After Pentecost

Rev. Fr. Leonard Goffine's
The Church's Year

REMARK If from Pentecost until Advent there be only twenty-three Sundays, the following one is omitted, and the Mass of the twenty-fourth is said.

The Introit of the Mass consoles and incites us to confidence in God who is so benevolent towards us, and will not let us pine away in tribulation. The Lord saith: I think thoughts of peace, and not of affliction: you shall call upon me, and I will hear you: and I will bring back your captivity from all places. (Fer. XXIX. 11. 12. 14.) Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob. (Ps. LXXXIV.) Glory be to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

COLLECT Absolve, we beseech Thee, 0 Lord, Thy people from their offences: that through Thy bountiful goodness we may be freed from the bonds of those sins which through our frailty we have contracted. Through our Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the Unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end, Amen.

EPISTLE (Philipp. III 17-21.: IV, 1-3.) Brethren, Be followers of me, and observe them who walk so as you have our model. For many walk, of whom I have told you often (and now tell you weeping), that they are enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. But our conversation is in heaven: from whence also we look for the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ, who will reform the body of our lowness, made like to the body of his glory, according to the operation whereby also he is able to subdue all things unto himself. Therefore, my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown: so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved. I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one mind in the Lord. And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have labored with me in the gospel with Clement and the rest of my fellow-laborers, whose names are in the book of life.

EXPLANATION There are unhappily many Christians, who, as St. Paul complains, are, declared enemies of Christ's cross, who do not wish to mortify their senses, who only think of gratifying their lusts, and, as it were, find their only pleasure, even seek their honor, in despising the followers of Jesus and His saints on the narrow path of the cross, of mortification and humiliation. What will be the end of these people? Eternal perdition! For he who does not crucify the flesh, does not belong to Christ. (Gal. V. 24.) He who does not bear the-marks of the mortification of Jesus in his body, in him the life of Christ shall not be manifested. (II Cor. IV. 10.) He who does not walk in heaven during his, life-time, that is, who does not direct his thoughts and desires heavenward, and despise the world and its vanities, will not find admission there after his death.

ASPIRATION Would to God , I could say with St. Paul: The world is crucified to me, and I to the world. (Gal. VI. 14.)

GOSPEL (Matt. IX. 18-26.) At that time, As Jesus was speaking to the multitudes, behold, a certain ruler came up, and adored him, saying: Lord , my daughter is even now dead: but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live. And Jesus, rising up, followed him, with his disciples. And behold, a woman, who was troubled with an 'issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment. For she said within herself: If I shall touch only his garment, I shall be healed. But Jesus turning and seeing her, said: Be of good heart, daughter: thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. And when Jesus was come into the house of the ruler, and saw the. minstrels and the multitude making a tumult, he said: Give place: for the girl is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. And when the multitude was put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand. And the maid arose. And the fame hereof went abroad into all that country.

INSTRUCTIONS I. Filial was the faith, unbounded the confidence, profound the humility of this woman, and therefore, she received health also. Learn from this, how pleasing to the Lord is faith, confidence and humility; let your prayer always be penetrated by these three virtues, and you will receive whatever you ask.

II. The devout Louis de Ponte compares the conduct of this woman to our conduct at holy Communion, and says: Christ wished to remain with us in the most holy Eucharist, clothed with the garment of the sacramental species of bread, that he who receives His sacred flesh and blood,  may be freed from evil concupiscence. If you wish to obtain the health of your soul, as did this woman the health of the body, imitate her. Receive the flesh and blood of Jesus with the most profound humility, with the firmest confidence in His power and goodness, and like this woman you too will be made whole.

III. Jesus called three dead persons to life, the twelve year old daughter of Jairus, ruler of the synagogue, of whom there is mention made in this gospel, the young man at Naim, (Luke VII. 14.) and Lazarus. (John. XI- 43.) By these three dead persons three classes of sinners may be understood: the maiden signifies those who sin in their youth through weakness and frailty, but touched by the grace of God, perceive their fall and easily rise again through penance; by the young man at Naim those are to be understood who sin repeatedly and in public, these require greater grace, more labor and severer penance; by Lazarus, the public and obdurate habitual sinners are to be understood who can be raised to spiritual life only by extraordinary graces and severe public penance.

IV. Christ did not raise the maiden, until the minstrels and noisy multitude were removed, by which He wished to teach us that the conversion of a soul cannot be accomplished in the midst of the noise and turmoil of temporal cares, idle pleasures and associations.

INSTRUCTION CONCERNING RIDICULE AND DERISION

And they laughed him to scorn. (Matt IX. 24.)

When Jesus told the minstrels and the crowd that the girl was not dead, but sleeping, they laughed at Him, because they understood not the meaning of His words. Sensual-minded men generally act in the same manner towards the priests and ministers of God, who by their word and example admonish them to despise honors, riches and pleasures, and to embrace the love of poverty, humility and mortification. This is, an unintelligible and hateful language to them which they ridicule and mock just as they do when they hear that death is a sleep, from which we shall one day awake and be obliged to appear before the judgment-seat of God. Woe to such scoffers by whose ridicule so many souls are led from the path "of virtue! What the devil formerly, accomplished by tyrants in estranging men from God and a lively faith in Him and His Church, he seems to wish to accomplish in our days by the mockery, scoffs, and blasphemies of wicked men; for at no period have piety and virtue, holy simplicity and childlike faith, adherence to the holy Roman Church and her laws, reverence for her head, her ministers and priests, been more mocked, derided and blasphemed. Unhappily many permit themselves to be induced by mockery to abandon piety, to omit the public practice of their faith, to conceal their Catholic conviction, and to lead a lukewarm, careless, indeed, sinful life. Woe to the scoffers! they are an abomination to the Lord (Prov. III. 32.) who will one day require from their hands all the souls perverted by them. Do not permit yourself to be led astray by those who ridicule your faith and zeal for virtue; remember the words of Jesus: He that shall deny me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven. (Matt. X. 33.) Let Jesus be your consolation, He was scoffed and blasphemed for your sake, and often say within yourself:

I know, my most amiable Jesus, that the servant cannot be more than his master. Since Thou wert so often sneered at, mocked and blasphemed, why should I wonder if I am derided for my faith in Thee and Thy Church, and for the practice of virtue!

It's Almost Dark

By Anna Von Reitz

It's almost dark.  Just a faint orange strip of sunset sky remains,  with a dark purple band of clouds and and a slash of dazzling stars far above. It's cold, but not uncomfortable as I work, harvesting the last of the Swiss Chard, chives, and herbs.  

This has been a beautiful fall this year in Alaska, all amber and gold and warm lingering days, but at last all the leaves are on the ground and the weatherman says it will snow for the first time tomorrow.  

It won't stay long. We will have a few days yet to dump out flower pots and pile up leaves.  There will be a few more days, maybe a couple weeks-- before the real snows of winter arrive.  I know I should be thinking about burning a certain brush pile, but a family of rabbits moved in a couple weeks ago and I'll just leave it until spring.

Coming home tonight in the dusk the road was empty, just a dull silver ribbon making a straight line among the fading colors of the day. I came to the familiar turn off and paused.  There's a rough wooden cross at the corner there, in memory of Garrett Seurat.  I never knew him.  I knew his Father, Jay. 

I briefly remember the summer day, maybe fifteen years ago, when I heard tires squealing wildly in the very early morning, and later, the sight of his shiny black sports car hanging nearly upside down and halfway up a stand of birch and spruce trees, like an airplane that didn't make take off.  He was dead on the scene. 

Shortly thereafter the wooden cross appeared, and it has been there ever since.  This late summer I saw a woman and a girl there putting new silk flowers around the cross arms.  I suppose the girl was his daughter, too young at the time of the accident to ever remember her father or know his face. 

I've marked the passage of the years and noted the days when old flowers have been taken away and new flowers come to take their place, and nodded to his loved ones who have kept their faithful tending of his memorial as I went upon my way.

Tonight I stopped, the cross was awry, knocked about by wind and rain perhaps, or some careless accident of passing moose or motor bike.  I parked and set it straight again, piling up the stones around the base of wood and replaced the silk flowers that love left there a couple months ago. 

Not a soul passed by and hardly a leaf stirred in the fading light. I thought about this young man that I never knew.  I thought about how loved he was, and is, even now.  It seemed like setting his cross straight in time for the winter was the least I could do, if only to comfort those who remain and who will come again and look for it at Christmas and again in the spring.  

Then I hurried on home and put dinner in the oven and tended to the last of my green garden tasks, quickly heeling in the potted perennials, cutting the Swiss Chard and herbs, taking in a couple wine-colored petunias that will live on for a couple months and bloom in a glass of water long after the rest of this year's garden is gone or sleeping. 

Chives and spearmint, bee balm and oregano, sweet verbena and lemon balm, hyssop and cone flower; I have already and long-since potted up the lemon balm and parsley for the indoor garden. These are just the straggle ends that will go into a salad or top a baked potato or make a cup of tea.  My teapot is sitting on the table, center stage, a cast-iron pot on a cast-iron tea candle-powered base, guaranteed to keep the tea warm for an hour or two while I work deep into the night.  

I have more sympathy for autumn now, that like the year, I am older, too.  Life oddly seems more precious and love more miraculous now, when nothing is guaranteed and beauty is gone past remembering and every day that dawns appears in its true colors as a blessing. 

The great struggles of kings and queens and countries and empires shrink down to the embers of the fire on my hearth and the wind blowing around the chimney.  All day long v's of Canada Geese have been passing over, their mournful honking like a friend calling good-bye over their shoulder, and now, at this time of night, the bats, too, are taking to the sky in search of what scant insect dinners may be left. The resident bunnies are snuggled in their brush pile beds after a hard day of munching sweet autumn clover.  

I hope that all those who are reading this will take Nature's message to heart and re-connect to the times and where we are. Make the effort now to shore up your world, and to do what you can to prepare for dark, cold days ahead, to be ready for yourself and your family and your friends, and to be able to assist others who are less fortunate.   

We especially want to thank the many people all over this country who have eased our days and budgets by sharing the good produce of the land and the things they have made.  Cheese curds and mustard from Wisconsin.  Vanilla beans from Hawaii.  Cucumbers and squash and tomatoes from Washington.  Herbs and honey from Oregon.  Mushrooms from Pennsylvania.  Lobster from Maine.  Vidalia onions from Georgia.  Buffalo jerky from the Great Plains. Pistachios from California.  Apples from Eastern Washington.  Cheddar from Iowa. Ham from Virginia.  And so much more. These gifts of the land and the people mean so much to us and to other members of The Living Law Firm who get their share of this bounty, too.  

It helps a lot in many ways and we want you to know that we are grateful and we have shared and we give deep thanks in our hearts for all of you and for this abundant land we share. 

As winter closes in our days grow rapidly colder and darker.  By mid-December we will be down to about four hours of daylight per day.  It becomes increasingly difficult for mail and deliveries of packages to get to us in Big Lake.  Anything but First Class Letters and packages of dry goods get problematic this time of year, so please be aware that you shouldn't send anything that can freeze or break in transit, and if you send meat or other frozen perishables, the best way to send it is to the office in Anchorage:  The Living Law Firm, 1336 Staubbach Circle, Anchorage, Alaska 99508.  

We are deeply truly grateful for all of you and everything you send, whether it is cash or radishes.  It all gets put to good purpose and good use by good people for a good cause.  God bless and keep you all.

Feast of Christ the King - Last Sunday in October

On October 30. 2011, The last Sunday in October, about 3 years before I knew anything about Anna Von Reitz, I wrote the following on the Feast of Christ the King.   Paul Stramer

Most of the founders of our country were keen to say that our country was founded on Christian principles, and our form of government would work for no other people than a Christian people. The saying "No King but Jesus" was popular then as it is in some circles now.

Today is celebrated in the Catholic Church the idea that Jesus is the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords" which is expressed in different words today. Today it might be said that Jesus should be the King over all government agents, employees, and office holders, and that if He isn't held as such by those people our country is doomed and judged to fall into oblivion, since the form of government we have (Constitutional Republic) will work for no other people.

Some years ago I shocked a group of patriots at a dinner in Kalispell by making the statement that my whole purpose in being a patriot was to restore the Kingship of Jesus over our country. That form of government could be expressed as a "Constitutional Monarchy by the King of Kings, Jesus Christ". Of course that would not change our form of government, in corporal terms, one bit, but it would restore the ideas of the founders and infuse reality and truth into the people who have sworn to uphold and protect and defend the US Constitution, which I believe was somwhat Divinely Inspired.

How would restoring the Kingship of Jesus effect our country. Who is this King?  Jesus is the second person of the Blessed Trinity, The Word of God Made Man. In other words Jesus is 'Truth Personified'. He is God, along with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Co-equal with them, but posessing a second nature, the nature of Man. He has both the nature of God, and the nature of man in one person. That is the miracle. He is the Christ of the Lord, and the Lord of Lords, meaning that from His role as Redeemer, and Saviour, and first born from the dead he has the supremacy in all things, in all creation, and by Him and His Sacrifice the door to heaven has been opened and we all have a chance to be saved.  
You might ask then, like the jews asked, why didn't he stay and rule in bodily form? (restore the kingdom of Isreal)  The fact is that he DID restore His Kindgom, but His Kingdom, as He told Pontius Pilate, is NOT of this world.
So how would His Kingdom be restored inside our government? 
By giving people in government an example of true Christian Charity, and offering them a way OUT of their dilemma. Most people connected with government have taken an Oath to the same God to uphold, defend, and protect the US Constitution. All they need to do to restore the Kingship of Christ in their lives is to keep that oath. What a change that would make in our country. If people in government will just start keeping their oath, they will redeem themselves in God's eyes, while making a very positive change for the better in all the duties of their own office or position. 
Restoring the Kingship of Jesus Christ by keeping their oath would completely restore our country in just a few months, and perhaps change entirely the judgement of God in our regard.  Remember when Jona preached in Ninive and the King commanded that all should restore justice and do pennance. God had mercy on their city, like he can have mercy on our country if we just keep our Oath to Him.

Help me now to Celebrate the Kingship of Jesus Christ as Lord of Lords, and King of Kings, and pray with me the prayers of the Mass for his feast.

THE FEAST OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, KING, (Last Sunday in October)
Double feast of the First Class

Introit, Apoc. 5, 12; 1, 6
The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power, and divinity, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, To Him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Ps 71,1. Give to the King Thy judgment, O God; and to the King's Son Thy justice. Glory be to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end, Amen.

Prayer;
Almighty and eternal God, Who hast wished to restore all things through Thy beloved Son, the King of the universe, graciously grant that all the familes of the Gentiles separated by the wound of sin, may be subjected to His most loving dominion, Who with Thee liveth and reignest, in the Unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end, Amen.

Epistle Col. 1, 12-20

Bretheren, we give thanks to God the Father, Who hath made us worthy to be partakers of the lot of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love. In Whom we have redemption through His blood, and remission of sins; Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature; for in Him were all things created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and in Him. And He is before all, and by Him all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the Chruch, Who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things He may hold the primacy: because in Him, it hath well pleased the Father, that all fullness should dwell; and through Him to reconcile all things unto Himself, making peace through the blood of His cross, both as to the things that are on earth, and the things that are in heaven, in Christ Jesus Our Lord.

Gradual. Ps. 71,  8, 11

He shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth. And all kings of the earth shall adore Him: all nations shall serve Him.

Alleluia, alleluia. His power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and His kingdom that shall not be destroyed. Alleluia.

Gospel. John 18, 33-37

At that time: Pilate said to Jesus; Art thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of Me? Pilate answered: Am I a  Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?  Jesus answered: My kindgom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now My kingdom is not from hence. Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a King. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth, Everyone that is of the truth, hearreth My voice.

Offertory. Ps. 2, 8

Ask of Me, and I will give Thee the Gentiles for Thy inheritance, and the utmost parts of the earth for Thy possession.

Secret

O Lord, we offer Thee this host for the reconciliation of humanity; grant, we beseech Thee, that Jesus Christ Thy Son our Lord, Whom we immolate in this sacrifice, will bestow on all Gentiles the gifts of unity and peace, Who with Thee liveth and reignest in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end, Amen.

Communion.

The Lord shall sit King forever. The Lord will bless His people with peace.

Postcommunion

Fed with this immortal nourishment, we beseech Thee, O Lord, that we who glory to fight under the standard of Christ the King, may forever reign with Him on the heavenly throne. Who with Thee liveth and reignest, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end, Amen.

NO KING BUT JESUS !

Your Grandfather's Clock

By Anna Von Reitz

Let's pretend that you inherited a beautiful Grandfather's Clock from your Grandfather.  It's big and old and heavy and tall and you have to wind it every day by pulling down a heavy iron weight, but it keeps good time and the chimes marking the hour are quiet and melodious. 

You grew up with it, you like it, you decide to keep it, but in your house the only place that it easily fits is in back of a stairwell in a hallway that leads to a back door that you seldom use. 

So you put the clock out in that seldom-used entry way and over time, you forget to wind it, so it just sits there day after day, month after month, and year after year. It's still there, still usable, but because of its location and your busy life and the difficulty of moving it into the living room (where it would fit, if you took the time and made the effort to move some other stuff around) --- it just collects dust. You almost forget that its there. 

That's the situation with your actual government. 

The new hustle-bustle world of commerce butted in and grabbed all the attention, and it was so fast and easy.  Just buy a battery and you never have to worry about winding the clock.  All those private, for-profit "government service" corporations nosed in and offered you all their many, many services, and you bought them all (whether or not you realized that you were buying them). 

From then on, a "government" employee was always there ready to buy new batteries and change them for you.  You didn't even have to think about clocks anymore, except to read the time.   Everything just seemed to run by itself and you didn't have to do anything. You didn't even bother to vote in the employee elections. 

[To be fair, some of you were aware enough to realize that you weren't government employees and couldn't justify voting in their elections, so you didn't volunteer. And still others realized their mistake and stopped voting for that reason.]  

What a shock to find out that all that "government service" is costing you far, far more than anyone ever told you?  What a shock that you never actually even thought about it until now? 

No doubt it's an even bigger shock that you have to drag the old Grandfather's Clock out from behind the stairs and start winding it again if you want to know what time it actually is. 

I just read the paperwork where Obummer and Joe Biden and the rest of the completely insane former "Administration" issued 25,000 trillion "US Dollars" ---- not to be confused with The United States Dollar --- as "US" Treasury Debt Notes. 

God only knows which "United States" and which "United States Treasury" was supposed to pay for all this, but it wasn't our United States and it was not our Treasury issuing these "Notes".  That much I can assure you. 

They have seriously tried to put this country 25,000 trillion dollars in debt.  They tried to hang all that on you and your kids. And all because you forgot to wind your own clock. 

Get down on your knees and thank your Creator that everyone else in the world --- everyone except the completely insane U.S. Democratic Party ---understands that this is nuts, and knows that the books have to be wiped clean of Odious Debt, and that all the deliberate confusions about who is who and what is what must end.

Certain criminals who have sought to defraud not only all the Americans, but everyone else for the past 150 years, must be brought to justice.  The banks that colluded in all of this fraud, have to be shut down and placed under new management.  All the currencies in the world need to be "reset" against the value of an actual American Dollar--- our actual, factual silver dollar. 

All you government employees and volunteers and dependents out there?  All you welfare recipients and pensioners?  Vote Republican. It's your only chance of survival.  And I mean that literally.

So Much for the Goldfish Report....

By Anna Von Reitz

Good intentions have to count for something, even if it would be far better and more effective if those intentions were backed up with actual truth and with right action.  So I have refrained from saying anything much about "The Goldfish Report", but finding myself illogically attacked and misrepresented once again, I have decided to take exception. 

Not just because "The Goldfish Report" is definitely wrong about me and what I am saying, too.  I have to speak up because as long as people believe in lies they are incapable of defending themselves.  And that is how and why --- above and beyond all else --- they wind up in jail.

We already know that the "US District Courts" are not operating under any Constitutional power whatsoever. 

We know in fact that the UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURTS are ecclesiastical courts --- Star Chambers, Inquisitions --- run under the auspices of the Roman Municipal Government and its franchises. 

We have "judges" here in Alaska who are now openly admitting that they are mere "Jurists" --- hired under contract to give opinions about law without having any public office or power at all.   

We also know in fact that the United States District Courts are run as private corporate tribunals under the auspices of the British Crown Corp and that these have no power to address anyone or anything but British Crown Corp officers, employees, dependents, and franchisees. 

The fact that actual justice will not return until our actual government is restored should also be self-evident.

The question should no longer be: "Why are we being screwed over by these courts?" but rather should be: (1) Why are we allowing these foreign courts to operate on our soil and address our people?  and (2) Why are we individually subjecting ourselves to these private religious and/or corporate tribunals instead of claiming our actual birthright standing? and (3) Why are we failing to form our own Jural Assemblies and providing ourselves with our own American Common Law Courts? 

Where the @%@#%@ is John Wayne when you need him?

It's largely because everyone involved has their favorite brand of reality that they, like The Goldfish Report, insist on clinging to, even when their theories  have long been disproven and even when they fly in the face of the actual facts, the actual experience of patriots, and the historical records, too.  

The Goldfish Report would keep us all running in circles looking for answers to questions that have been answered for twenty years, instead of facing facts and dealing with reality.  

They don't like to hear that their hero, Winston Shrout, was most likely still operating as a VESSEL owned and operated either by the Holy See or by the British Crown Corp and therefore owed federal taxes.  And if so, [because we really don't know the whole story yet] that would be the reason that the DEFENDANT was impounded. Uh-duh.

The answer to the court problem is right in front of us and the success of our effort in the right direction is already assured.  I have been harping on it for years.  Declare your political status as an American, stop claiming to be a "U.S. Citizen" [which means you have voluntarily adopted the political status of a Puerto Rican], and then organize your Jural Assemblies. Provide your own courts. That is what "self-governance" means.

You haven't been providing your own Courts and enforcing your own Public Law.  That's what's missing.  That's why we have lawlessness in our courts. That's why people like Winston get railroaded and defamed. Don't believe it? 

Read the Supreme Court case Mack and Prinz v. USA, Inc., in which Sheriff Richard Mack imposed upon the court for a finding that yes, Sheriffs hired as Law Enforcement Officers, could if they so choose, actually honor the Constitutional guarantees and enforce the Public Law. 

Now, ask yourselves, why on God's Green Earth should it be necessary for a Sheriff to go all the way to the Supreme Court to be told that he can, if he wants to, enforce the Public Law in this country? 

It's because there are almost no Public Courts left. It's because the Sheriffs are working as "law enforcement officers" and not as "peacekeeping officers" ---- they are hired by "Counties" operated as corporate franchises of federal "government services corporations", not land jurisdiction Counties owned and operated by the People of our States.

It's because stupid people have been leading stupid people.

It's because these foreign "governmental services organizations" make Big Bucks by entrapping and feeding off of you. 

It's because the British Monarchs and Popes have been in Breach of Trust for 150 years and nobody has called them on it. 

Except for me and the rest of the Party Hearties. 

You can go arrest these vermin who are parading around using commercial "law" as a means to entrap and falsely accuse people. You can kick the  Inquisition off shore.  You can kick the British Crown Corp Tribunals to Kingdom Come, too.  

But the only way to get there from here is by: (1) straightening out the deliberately falsified public records concerning your own political status and (2) booting up your own local County and State Jural Assemblies and (3) operating your unincorporated County and State Governments.

Once you do that, all the treaties and Public Laws come back into view and have enforcement. Until then, the only "law and order" is whatever the priests and pirates want to do.

Now, I am giving it to you all straight up, neat, no ice, no dilution. It's not a pleasant drink.  But it is the truth before my Maker.  And "The Goldfish Report" and all the other Gossip Sheets are stuck with it, once again, staring them in the face.

Hot Foot It

By Anna Von Reitz

If you are an American born on the land and soil of one of the actual States and knowingly claiming your Good Name and Estate and not acting as a federal employee, corporation, or dependent---and not accused of a violent crime like assault, rape, or murder----here is what you need to do in all cases both criminal and civil in response to all claims from these foreign courts:

1. Have recorded your Deed of Re-Conveyance to your Trade Name and action permanently domiciling it on the land and soil of the State where you were born.  Have recorded two photo ID Witness Statements from friends and/or family members having first hand knowledge identifying you as "the" living man or woman born to such and such parents at such and such time and place.  Have a copy of the Birth Certificate they issued "in your name" ready to present. Have your own Certificate of Assumed Name/NAME recorded and ready to go.  

2. Take certified copies of your recorded documents (above) plus the Birth Certificate they issues with you and go see the Clerk of Court --- the actual Clerk of Court.  Look them in the eye and say, "You are acting under the 1933 Amendment to the Trading With the Enemy Act."  [If you are arrested and unable to do this directly, have it pre-arranged with your wife or husband or Counselor-at-Law to go in and do this for you.] 

3. That should be all that you need to do.  They should immediately blanch the color of old, dirty paper and ask for settlement.  Ask for dismissal of all charges with prejudice.

4. If they don't seem to know what they are doing and don't ask for settlement terms, ask for their evidence of authority to address you? 

They won't have anything.  Ask for dismissal of all charges with prejudice. 

5. If they are holding someone or something (like your house)  under arrest related to the charges, you do the above two steps, and if they are still waffling, observe, "Uniform Commercial Code Article 9, Section 402 specifically states that the secured party is not surety for the DEBTOR named as Defendant." 

6. And if at any time they challenge your standing as an American being harmed by their horse hooey, pull out your recorded land jurisdiction documents and a copy of the BC issued to you, and watch them scurry around.  It's kinda fun when they realize the jig is up.

A Quick ReCap

By Anna Von Reitz

In 1933 the vermin in the British Territorial United States Congress amended The Trading With the Enemy Act to include average Americans as "aliens" (which we are, thank God, with respect to their illegal and immoral corporate venture) and as possible "enemies". This gave them an excuse to seize all our assets and roll everything into trusts under The Office of the Alien Property Custodian.

The Territorial States of States "took title" to us and our lands and kept the equitable title to benefit themselves, and they split the takings with the Municipal United States organization run by the Roman Catholic Church by giving them the legal title to everything.

And what did we get out of this cozy arrangement?

The bill.

The schemers abused their position of trust to run up huge debts against our assets, then claimed bankruptcy protection for themselves and left us holding the bag.

They did this in 1907 and in 1933 and have tried to pull it again in 2015 and 2017.

Now the Rothschilds are trying to boot up two new corporate government structures, one British doing business as THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, LLC chartered in Scotland and one French doing business as The Republic of the United States of America (Inc.) and we are having none of it.

Non-assumpsit. No contract.

And, by the way, all those "Delegated Powers" of ours that they were assuming were there for their new corporations to exercise in our behalf?

The Delegated Powers returned to us by Operation of Law, and we accepted them back. Formally. On the record.

So there is where it stands. Checkmated.

We, the Americans, are owed back all our assets free and clear of debt and encumbrance. We are also owed all the back rent, leases, mortgage escrows, utility payments, labor contracts, life force value annuities, and other assets that are rightfully ours.

We are the Priority Creditors and we are presenting ourselves as the Naked Owners. The banks are only middlemen with little or no bargaining position of their own.

Common Sense 2018

By Anna Von Reitz

Karen Hudes continues her Big Lie campaign and accuses me of being a "Vatican Agent" and says I "tried to steal" her precious Global Debt Facility a "fourth time".  

In actual fact, I have never worked for the Vatican (only for the Pope in a private capacity as detailed in Disclosure 101). 

And the only "stealing" that has gone on has been by the banks she works for. 

Their theft of largely American and Jewish assets is what resulted in the existence of the "Global Debt Facility" in the first place. 

The banks created the Global Debt Facility as a Dropbox for stolen loot. It is their attempt to wash their hands and avoid culpability for having stolen goods in their possession ---- no different than a Pawn Shop owner who gets caught fencing stolen property. 

Reclaiming property that belongs to Americans for the Americans from the banks that stole it from us in the first place isn't stealing. It's called asset recovery.  

If you reclaim what is yours, is it stealing? 

If America demands back what lawfully belongs to Americans who are heirs of the original owners, is that stealing? 

The World Bank together with the Federal Reserve and the IBRD were the principal parties responsible for the Great Fraud, They all deserve to be liquidated and placed under completely new management. 

And as for Karen the only whistle she is blowing is theirs. If you listen to that woman, you will believe that the banks are great philanthropists and that they just created the Global Debt Facility out of the goodness of their hearts.  

If you listen to me, you will see that they are self-interested criminals trying to avoid their culpability for profiting from stolen goods. 

Which story rings true in your experience?

About Winston Shrout

By Anna Von Reitz

So, WINSTON SHROUT was convicted of "income tax" offenses. 

You can only be convicted of such offenses if you or your "vessels" owe such taxes---  right?

And no "vessel" permanently domiciled on the land and soil of an American State owes such taxes, because why?  

Because all our taxes of every kind on all vessels whether trading vessels or commercial vessels are either tax exempt or tax pre-paid, a condition known as "tax percuse".  So long as these "vessels" are operating as American vessels, they are safe. 

It's only when these names can be mistaken as British Territorial or Municipal United States VESSELS that they can be taxed. 

So---that in turn tells you that Winston never went through the process of reclaiming his Good Name and Estate and re-conveying them to the land and soil of the American State where he was actually born. He never recorded his claim to his own name and estate, or if he did, he didn't bring that recorded information forward to the District Attorney and others responsible----most particularly, the Clerk of Court.   

If you have your paperwork in order and on the record and you look the Clerk in the eye and say, "You are operating under the 1933 Amendment to the Trading With the Enemy Act"  that is as good as saying, "Caught you. Prove that I am an enemy combatant or yield." 

But, Winston never re-flagged his "vessels" in international trade and commerce---- never permanently domiciled these NAMES on the land and soil of one of the sovereign States via a recorded claim presented to the Clerk of Court.  

If he had recorded his Re-Conveyance and his Certificate of Assumed Name and his two Witnesses confirming that he was the "Winston Shrout" whose actual birth was recorded on the BC issued by the Territorial State of State --- that is, if he had proof that he was operating as an American Vessel/VESSEL --- their court couldn't say anything to him, much less accuse him of a foreign statutory crime or successfully try him.  

From the above, we know that he was operating "WINSTON SHROUT" as a British Territorial Vessel belonging to the British Crown.  And none of those vessels are tax pre-paid.  All such "U.S. Citizens" operating under the "Diversity Clause" owe federal income taxes. 

As a result, his remedies worked as long as the other Party was solvent. Once they declared bankruptcy, no Mutual Offset Credit Exchange was possible, because the bankrupt entity had no credit left to exchange.  And as we all know, you can't bring claims against a bankrupt. 

This is exactly the reason that I issued the Private Registered Indemnity Bond covering all the unincorporated States of the Union, so that people could switch from remedy based on Mutual Offset Credit Exchange to remedy based on making an insurance claim against the Underwriters of the bankrupt entities. 

So --- Mistake Number One --- continuing to operate as a British Territorial Citizen and/or Municipal United States CITIZEN when you don't have to, and thereby subjecting your Name / NAME to their jurisdiction and having no evidence on the public record to counterclaim against their presumptions. 

Mistake Number Two --- not claiming exemption and revoking "election" to pay federal income taxes BEFORE they bring their claims. Remember--- first in line, first in time.  Hit them BEFORE they hit you.  

Mistake Number Three -- continuing to use remedies that became "discretionary" for the Federales in 1999, and using these remedies even after the Federal entities are bankrupted. 

Mistake Number Four -- not observing that these vermin are acting under the 1933 Amendment to the Trading With the Enemy Act and holding the actual Holder in Due Course as Surety for their debt, which is a securities fraud of very high order resulting in a war crime that carries a capital crime charge with it. 

Read that, they can be hung for doing what they are doing.  

It is called "salacious securities fraud with intent to foment sedition".  Reduce that to plain English, they are setting up a situation where normal people will start to riot and hang the perpetrators in the streets.  

Once you give them Notice of that fact and claim "Habeas Corpus -- deliver the body to me." they are also looking at civil fines described under 18 USC 472 and are in violation of UCC Article 9, Section 402, which clearly states that the Secured Party (the American) is not surety for the DEBTOR (the U.S. Citizen/ CITIZEN) entity. 

So, bottom line, as usual, they convicted WINSTON, a Municipal franchise entity, not Winston, the man, and they have offered to incarcerate the man as "cargo" on the foreign Municipal United States VESSEL  dba WINSTON SHROUT. 

The man can counter-offer at any time, by going directly to the Clerk and the DA and delivering his demand.  It's not as strong when he hasn't bothered to do his paperwork to reclaim his birthright political status, but they are still attempting to railroad him under the 1933 Amendment to the Trading with the Enemy Act, they still have no excuse for doing so, they are still subject to all the penalties once he calls them on it, and they are still committing securities fraud by holding the actual Holder in Due Course as surety for WINSTON's debts in violation of UCC 9-402. 

WINSTON = "U.S. Citizen" = DEBTOR.

Winston = American (if he claims it properly) = Priority Creditor

We are closing in on the whole lash-up, so I don't expect that Winston or anyone else is going to be held for very much longer, with or without exercising their proper options and claims as Americans.  We have returned all the State of State and STATE OF STATE and  State Trusts to the control and ownership of the sovereign unincorporated States, so all this horse hooey based on similar names deceits is coming to an end.

The Accounting

By Anna Von Reitz

For all the confused people out there: 

An accounting ledger traditionally has two sides to it, a plus side, and a minus side. 

For 150 years, without our knowledge or consent, the purported "Trustees" have had all American land, property, and assets sequestered and held in trust, accruing credit and interest and lease payments and fees and rents.  

All that has been going onto the plus side of the ledger for the benefit of the American States and People ---- supposedly.  

In actual fact, the American People were never told a word about this cozy arrangement, with the result that the Trustees (Queens, Kings, and Popes) were able to invest our assets "for" us and benefit themselves and their bankers via having access to this gigantic Slush Fund and control of all our assets. 

They borrowed against all our assets and thus created obligations that they forced their own subjects --- the unwitting "U.S. Citizens"--- to pay off as franchise debts. 

So, as you can now see, all the debts and costs have been accruing on the minus side of the accounting ledger, against all the "U.S. Citizens".

Americans = credit.  U.S. Citizens  = debt.  

Of course, accidentally on purpose, we, the Americans, were all systematically mis-identified as "U.S. Citizens" and divested of our lawful inheritance and forced to go through an unmarked legal obstacle course to prove who we are and regain what was always rightfully ours.   

All of this, everything we have suffered, is nothing but a gigantic Breach of Trust and Identity Theft swindle-- using a bogus accounting system, falsified public records, a rigged foreign court system, and private, foreign mercenaries operating under color of law to provide enforcement.  

The bankers have sat in the middle and profited as middlemen, making sure that they had access to all our assets for their investment slush fund, and making it difficult nigh-unto-impossible for people to ever find their way "home" again and reclaim their estates. 

What happens when you bring both sides of the ledger together?  

The "U.S. National Debt" vanishes like a pfoof-tee in a high wind.  It is literally nothing compared to what the Americans are owed. 

And that puts an end to the "presumption" that we are bankrupt and that our service providers are bankrupt and also puts an end to U.S. receivership by "U.S. Bankruptcy Trustees" appointed by the guilty banks responsible for this situation.  

We, the People, of The United States of America [Unincorporated] are richer than Midas, several times over.  They, the "inhabitants" of the British Territorial United States and Municipal United States, are destitute. 

And this is all arbitrary, the result of false accounting practices and deliberate self-interested falsification of public records.  

Many banks have benefited themselves from this situation --- not just the Federal Reserve.  The IMF has been on the receiving end, too.  The World Bank. The IBRD.  The BIS.  J.P. Morgan.  Citibank.  Wells Fargo.  Bank of America.  Bank of England.  Bank of Scotland.  Parabas.  UBS.  The list goes on and on.  

They all lined up at the trough, they all benefited themselves at our expense, they all conspired to rob us blind and leave us mis-characterized as destitute, endlessly indebted  "U.S. Citizens".  And at the end of the day, even that wasn't enough. 

No, this time around, they planned to take it all, and "resettle" America, just as they resettled Ireland 150 years ago, using mercenaries from the Federal Agencies acting under color of law to displace and evict their clueless victims ---- over debts the victims never owed. 

What we have done is to reclaim the American Credit side of the ledger and put the screws to these criminals.  Now, acting as the Priority Creditors, we are waiting for Mr. Trump to bring us the debt side of the ledger.  We will exercise our option to reconcile the books.  

By law, we are owed our estates back, free and clear of debt or encumbrance compiled by secondary parties.  See the Cestui Que Vie Act of 1666, which is still standing and still part of the international probate code.  See Article 9, Section 402, of the Uniform Commercial Code. 

Not only are we owed back all of our actual factual assets and our Good Names free and clear, we are also owed 150 years worth of fees, leases, rents, accruals, insurance payments, labor contracts, and joint venture proceeds, plus interest.  

Thanks to action taken by Living Law Firm members, all the assets of the Territorial and Municipal United States and the Federal State of State Trusts have been rolled over and under the protection of the sovereign unincorporated States.  

Thanks to our Living Law Firm, the Constitutions are still in place, and the Queen and the Pope are still obligated, but no longer in control of our contracting process. 

Thanks to our Living Law Firm, your lives and your property have been re-secured and returned safely to the land jurisdiction States. All you have to do is the paperwork to identify yourselves as Americans, native to your State of the Union.  

Best of all, all our Delegated Powers have returned to our control by Operation of Law.  That's the cherry on top of the whipped cream.  We are free to determine our own future and enjoy our rightful place as a free and independent country. 

It has only taken 242 years.  

"But, but, but....don't we have to pay taxes to pay for all the public assistance and welfare and costs of government and the military and....." 

No.  Not anymore.  A new way of financing government is being put into place, one that does not depend upon human trafficking, bogus accounting systems, identity theft, enslavement, or any other evil.  

This will bring wonderful changes not only for America, but for the whole world.  So, take a moment. Bow your heads. Listen carefully to the silence.  The Great Fraud is ending as quietly as it began, with the shuffling of some words on paper, and the reconciliation of an accounting ledger.
