Colorado Confusion

By Anna Von Reitz

For some reason, Colorado is very important to the Federales. 

So important that they have spent a lot of money, time, and effort to  undermine all efforts to organize a legitimate and fully "constituted" Colorado Assembly. 

There have been continued pernicious rumors that I betrayed the Colorado Nine and gave them bad advice.  The bad advice came from a self-professed insurance agent named Michael R. Hamilton. They followed his advice, not mine.  

With great regret, I severed my association with the Colorado Nine some weeks before they transgressed against the Municipal Government.  

I have continued to try to assist them and to secure their release via diplomatic and lawful means ever since, but that is a one-to-one effort for the sake of these good people, not support for what they did, which I recognized as a mistake before they even did it. 

Now there are more Disinformation Agents working Colorado, trying to break the effort to organize a lawful State Assembly.  Why?  

Our research reveals that just as the major banks were committed to a sort of diabolical suicide pact, with each major central bank controlling one part of the gigantic bank fraud, it appears that each State of State had a piece of the action, too.  

Delaware was the purveyor of the Chancery Court and Municipal Corporations. Illinois brought us the plague of the Bar Associations.  Minnesota brought us the mortgage frauds and false land claims.  North Carolina provided a safe haven for Territorial Oppressors.  

But why the special extreme efforts to control Colorado and Michigan---and prevent those two States from forming legitimate State Assemblies?  What is their "special role" in the Great Fraud against the American States and People? 

What is clear, is that both these States --- Michigan and Colorado --- are key. 

A few years ago I made a pilgrimage to Lookout Mountain in Colorado.  It is a "mirror" for Lookout Mountain in Georgia.  These two places have spiritual meaning to the Cabal, and are surmounted by the graves of Freemason Grand Masters. 

Standing there among the whispering pines and overlooking the vast country beyond I remembered The Egress Treaty, by which the States agreed to allow the Territorial Government to come onto our land and soil in defense of our States and our People.  

No other reason.  

Instead, they have come and "occupied" our States and ravaged our People in the name of protecting us.  

And now, for some reason that is not yet completely clear, they are playing a desperate last ditch effort to derail our efforts to establish lawful State Assemblies in both Michigan and Colorado.  

I don't know why yet.  What is so "special" about these two States?  Maybe it doesn't matter if we know.  What matters is that we persist and establish competent and correctly constituted State Assemblies in both of those States. 

We need to nail it down so that everyone involved in the State Assembly in both Colorado and Michigan is absolutely squeaky clean, correctly "papered up" and fully aware of who they are, able to defend their claim to American National and/or American State Citizen status --- because whether it make sense of not, the Hammer is falling there.

And the Anvil must answer.

Gun control - Chicago and Houston compared

Lincoln and Illinois

By Anna Von Reitz

Even as a child I never liked Abraham Lincoln.  I didn't like his image on copper pennies and changed them out for nickels as much as I could. This antipathy can't be explained as a simple childish rejection of weird sideburns and top hats and craggy facial features.  I readily accepted double-amputees and WWII veterans who were burned beyond recognition and corpses at funerals and Special Ed kids and the local Winnebago tribal members dressed up in all their feathered regalia--- I was not the kind of child to be fearful of people because of their appearances, nor prejudiced toward anyone because of their appearance, either.

No, it wasn't that Lincoln was homely.  It was something else.  Of course, I couldn't put my finger on it as a child, but the lasting impression I had of him was that something was wrong with him.  Something bad.

In the years since then I have had cause to research into Lincoln's life and the Civil War to some depth.

There are long-standing rumors and some circumstantial evidence of the "he  doesn't look like anyone else in the Lincoln family, but he does look like so-and-so..."  gossip from local observers at the time, giving rise to the idea that Lincoln was actually the bastard son of a rich Jewish landowner named Springsteen; this I cannot confirm or deny.  It would require a DNA test to ever settle the question, and that is not likely to happen--- so let's leave the gossip among all those things we will never know about Lincoln, and focus on what we do know.

We do know that his nickname, "Honest Abe", was a jest, and that in real life, this was a tribute to his wit, not his actual honesty. 

We do know that the picture of his humble beginnings reading by firelight in a one room cabin to educate himself and earning his way by splitting rail fences and working as a small shopkeeper is largely bunk of the nineteenth century Sentimentalist ilk.

Wherever it came from -- Lincoln always had money and didn't lack for much.

We do know that immediately after the University Publishing group picked up on Lincoln as a young lawyer in Illinois, his political star began to rise. 

We do know that Lincoln was a prominent member of the Confederation Congress beginning in 1847 and that he made frequent trips to New York where the Confederation Congress met throughout the 1850's.

We know that through his connections with the Confederation Congress, he met and made friends with some of the most famous industrialists and business personages of the day, including British financiers who were eager to promote investment in America so long as the Queen had control of the government receiving the benefit of those investments.  

Some members of the Confederation Congress, including Lincoln, were eager to secure these economic benefits, and in view of the relatively large number of Federal "inhabitants" living throughout America (British Territorial Employees who remained here after the Revolution to provide "essential government services" per Article IV), they saw nothing wrong with providing "separate but equal" services to them via the Territorial Government--- which the Queen controls under our delegated authority.  Is this beginning to sound familiar?

The means to be employed to provide these services to British Territorial Federal Government Employees and their Dependents would be the creation of Territorial States of States, running in tandem with and in parallel to and mirroring the then-active Federal States of States. 

The British Doppleganger States-of-States were thus prepared by Lincoln and his cronies and were waiting in the wings at the end of the Civil War, ready to take over during the "Reconstruction" of the actual Federal States of States. 

Lincoln served as the British Territorial United States Governor of the Territorial State of Illinois, which was established with Lincoln's help before the Civil War, and in that capacity was in the direct service of Queen Victoria prior to his election as "President of the United States" --- the CEO of the Municipal United States Government.

During Lincoln's stint as Territorial State-of-State Governor of Illinois, the first Bar Association in America was organized in Illinois.  He signed their first charter. Whether or not he was an actual member of the Illinois Bar Association or The Bar Association of Illinois or The Illinois State Bar (there are about fifteen different names) has been carefully obscured, but we know he never occupied any office of the actual Federal Branch of the Federal Government -- and would have been prohibited from doing so as a Bar Association Member.  Again --- circumstantial evidence, but perhaps we can get to the root of this question in the future.

Lincoln supported the concept of Hickey's 1847 "enclosure" of the original Territorial Constitution --- The Constitution of the United States of America --- for use as corporate Articles of Incorporation for the new British Investment Corporation being formed to funnel money into the new Territorial States of States.

All these moves had many members of the original Confederation Congress alarmed, especially members representing the Southern States, who saw all this "untoward" activity by the British Territorial Government as something far more ---and more suspicious--- than a simple matter of providing equal public services to government employees.  They deeply mistrusted Lincoln for his apparently boundless support for continued British investment and broadening British presence and influence.

Lincoln's activities in Illinois preceded his election as President and it was feared that: (1) he was not qualified to become the actual President of our Federal Government, owing to his ties to the Bar Association--- members had been banned from holding Public Office in our American-controlled branch of the Federal government since 1819; and (2) his election meant the spread of Territorial States of States throughout the rest of the country. 

Thus it was that greedy Northern Industrialists, especially Railroad Barons eager to embark on the Continental Railroad project, and other industrialists even more eager for British investment money to back their factories, backed Lincoln; the Southern Plantation owners saw nothing but the return of British taxes and oppression and meddling. 

They were, unfortunately and precisely, right.

Lincoln, the "Great Emancipator" was in fact the Great Enslaver instead; because of Lincoln, black men and women were released from private slave owners and became the property of government corporations, and millions upon millions of white Americans suffered the same fate.

Lincoln, for whatever reasons, was in lock-step with Benjamin Disraeli's plan to "enfranchise" the common man, and was in fact an Undeclared Agent of the Queen, who sought and accomplished the de facto overthrow of our system of government via an illegal commercial mercenary conflict staged on our shores--- the so-called American Civil War.

After the war, the Territorial States of States that Lincoln helped create were ready to slide into place and surreptitiously substitute themselves for the Federal States of States owned and operated by the American States and People.  In 1868, Hickey's "Corporate Constitution" was adopted.

The de facto take over of our government by the British interests promoted by Abraham Lincoln was a fait d'accompli. 

The American States and People were simply never notified of the changes undertaken "for" them, and the stage was set for both British investors and British pillaging on a scale unimaginable. 

There is some circumstantial evidence that Lincoln repented at the last, and that he planned to expose all this and redirect the Union Army, but like so many other things about Lincoln --- we will never know. He was assassinated before the ink was dry from Lee's surrender. 

Illinois was the Port of Entry for all this infamy and it remains one of the most corrupt States in the Union, thanks mostly to banks, international unions, and mafia influence in Chicago.  Nowadays Illinois watches from the sidelines, seemingly quietly aghast at the traumatic results of what they welcomed to our shores. Perhaps not altogether surprisingly, members of the Illinois Bar Association have  begun efforts to restructure and rethink: "Was it such a good idea to welcome British Admiralty Courts ashore?" 

Or, more likely --- "OMG! What is going to happen to us, when the Americans finally figure out who is who and what we did here?"  They have long lived in the fear of what Mark Twain predicted for them --- "a lawyer on every lamp post".

The Bar Associations and at least some of their members deserve to live in fear; because of them, millions of lives have been lost, trillions of dollars have been looted out of America and stolen from Americans, millions of innocent people have been enslaved and "enfranchised" and have suffered endless personage and barratry---- all of which the lawyers have known, and have said nothing about and done nothing to prevent.

Lincoln's giant portrait, the equal of any placard ever bearing homage to Stalin or Mao, hangs in the Middle Innes of Court in Westminster. 

Lincoln also began the practice of financing the government via the issuance of Treasury Bonds.  These "ten or forty" (think 1040) bonds were offered to investors using a concept like savings bonds. They could invest in these U.S. Treasury Bonds for ten years or for forty years and reap a guaranteed rate of return upon maturity.  The Federal Income Tax was originally a tax to force Federal Workers to buy Treasury Bonds.

As for what we do know about Lincoln --- he was a rat's rat, a King Rat on the scale of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.   He may well be a hero to the British Federal Government Employees and the Tories in general, but for the American States and People, he is a symbol of our own gullibility and our tolerant, generous nature, which has never easily discerned the source of the undisclosed evil in our midst.

Counties, Names, and Government by Contract

By Anna Von Reitz

All counties have to be "surveyed" --- located and geographically "defined"--- before there is any "thing" present that can be labeled and named.  Once this process is complete and a name has been attached to that parcel, the County is "corporate" but not "incorporated". 

When you, a man, come forth from your Mother and are a separate living being, you are defined by your body and located in space in much the same way.  Upon being named, "John" or "Bruce" or "Charles"--- you, too, are "corporate", but "unincorporated". 

So all counties are "corporate" entities, but not all counties in the country are "incorporated" --- meaning that some of them didn't take the bait of Federal Block Grants in order to maintain their independence.  We are compiling a list of those counties that (1) never bit the hook, and (2) those counties that have liquidated federal franchise counties and chosen to operate in unincorporated status, and (3) those counties that have merely been "presumed to be" incorporated, because they received Federal Block Grants or because they changed their doing-business-as names to conform with Federal Nomenclature.

We are finding that MOST counties fit in this later group and did not specifically or publicly adopt being incorporated.  Like the rest of us, they were apparently told "you have to do this" by Federal Agents, so they changed the Style or Ordering of their names and unwittingly created new corporate Persons that were assumed to be operating as Federal Franchises. 

For example, you might start out as "Pearson County" and over the years the name on the shingle at the Courthouse would change to
"County of Pearson"  or "PEARSON COUNTY" and so on.  Just like the switch from "John Michael Doe" to "JOHN MICHAEL DOE" in the absence of actual public meetings and discussions and votes taken there can be no reliable evidence that such counties ever knowingly agreed to incorporated as franchises of the Federal Government.

There are at least 3100 counties in America and people living in all of them.  Those people need to do some research into their own county history to find out the actual status of their county government.  Most likely, State of State franchises simply "moved in" after the Civil War and have operated like cuckoo birds in a robin's nest ever since.

The correct way to name the land and soil jurisdiction county for our purposes is always in Upper and Lower Case and in the form "Name County" --- as in "Bear County" or "Pearson County" or "Black River County" or "Winnebago County" or "Ipshago County" and so on. 

Please Note: When we use their notaries to do our work in public, we call them "Public Notaries" on the paperwork to nail down the capacity in which they are functioning and simply name the State --- for example, Colorado --- not the "State of Colorado" and not the "STATE OF COLORADO" and not "COLORADO", either, and the county is named as above, for example, "Montrose County".

We are also finding quite a number of "Diversified Counties" especially in large metro areas.  In these cases you will find a land and soil county overlain with layers of corporate entities from various jurisdictions eating out the population, each one charging for "services" and imposing regulations and codes and rules that are creating streams of revenue for these organizations without however having any actual and knowing consent from the local people.

In other words, these organizations are operating as commercial corporations under color of law.  They are booting up like any other commercial corporation with Articles of Incorporation and Officers and Boards of Directors and operating under deceptive names designed to make people assume that they are part of the actual government --- when they aren't.  Think of it as the local version of the "IRS" or "DOT".

The IRS exists as a privately owned and operated bill collector for the "Internal Revenue Service" which is a foreign "Bureau" perched inside of the "US Department of the Treasury" which is run by the IMF.  This is why the Secretary of the Treasury, Steven T. Mnuchin, is an Interpol Agent and not functioning as an American nor even as a US Citizen.

Anyway.....

These organizations like the "County of Pearson" typically stake out a turf for themselves and amass a list of subscribers, that is, people or even properties, that receive services from them.  They come in, they fill pot holes, they cut brush along utility corridors, or whatever function they have chosen for themselves, and then they send their purported subscribers a billing statement for these services whether the subscriber asked for these services or not. 

Often these groups act in concert with the actual County and give the County a "cut" of the action.  They may even send their billings out from the County offices, making it appear legitimate, or they may bill the County as Subcontractors and the County then arbitrarily taxes you, and again, it all looks legitimate and isn't.

These Undisclosed Subcontractors pad their billings to be able to give kickbacks to the less savory members of County Government and around and around it goes. In Oklahoma it got so bad that the County Clerks in the 1980's kept "Kickback Books".... literally.  They kept ledgers to keep the crooks honest.

Think of the Magazine Subscription Scams that plagued everyone back in the 1980's.  First, they gave you a "free subscription" out of the blue. It just comes to your mailbox from some "Subscription Service".  As part of that first "free" magazine they sent you a "subscription card" to receive up to six more magazines at "unbelievable prices", and, if you didn't bother to reply, they promise to send you complimentary copies of six more magazines to try!  After that, of course, they just kept sending magazines and if you were too busy to track down the fine print and cancel all these subscriptions, you were on the hook to pay for them all.  This went on for ten years before the Postal authorities finally cracked down on it.

Its the same thing with all the services that the County of Pearson offers you.  If you don't contact them and say, "Whoa!  Who are you and what are you offering and how much is it going to cost me?"  --- you are "presumed" to have subscribed to their service and are on the hook for paying for the services you received.   A wise person receiving a bill from something that looks like the County but not exactly, should question that billing, and should want to know exactly what they supposedly signed up to receive.  Who signed them up?  When? How? For what services?  -- And they should object to paying for anything they didn't order and ride herd on the cost of any services they agree to receive from the "County of Pearson".

This is all "government by private contract" and doesn't have a thing to do with the actual County, which rarely if ever does much beyond deciding which of these franchise operations are going to get the contracts next year.

I hope you continue to dig for any evidence that your county was ever incorporated or "presumed" to be incorporated.  If you can't find any evidence of incorporation, you may be living in one of those counties that never did incorporate.  What a blessing for you and everyone else concerned, if that turns out to be true.  It's one more thread that undermines claims that these foreign interlopers ever achieved "exclusive legislative jurisdiction". Please let us know so we have a confirmed status for your county.

Special Maritime Territorial Jurisdiction

By Anna Von Reitz

These words mean "British Law of Equity" conveyed by the Special Supplemental Rules of Admiralty tacked on to the end of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 

These six rules are what they have been using all these years to oppress and pillage Americans. 

This is what you need to pay attention to. 

True Admiralty Law concerns the Navy and operations of the Navy at sea and in port, but Maritime Law is Commercial Law and concerns civilian Merchant Marine services and contracts. In order for maritime Law to apply to you, you must be subject to a maritime contract or Party to a maritime contract or acting as a member of the Merchant Marine Service. 

Most Americans are identified as Warrant Officers in the Merchant Marines called "Withholding Agents".  From the Queen's viewpoint, Withholding Agents are "Taxpayers".  That is, Withholding Agents are actually Tax Collectors whose job it is to collect taxes and pay them to the Crown. 

This is why you get into so much trouble when you fail to do your "voluntary" job as a Withholding Agent for the Queen: you are considered to be a Warrant Officer in her Merchant Marine Service employed to collect taxes.

Anyway, that is the primary way that Americans get hornswoggled into the "Special Maritime Territorial Jurisdiction of the United States". 

Of course, any commercial contract that you engage in can also be construed to drag you into their jurisdiction. 

As a living man you are two steps removed from the realm of commerce, which is exclusively business conducted between two corporations. 

So how could you conduct business with a corporation like Exxon? 

First, you have to "cross the bar" in the international jurisdiction of the sea, and second, you have to accept the "privilege" of operating as a corporate franchise yourself from the Vatican's Municipal United States Government. 

That is, to operate in commerce, you have to either create a corporation with Articles of Incorporation and Officers, etc., or you have to "in"-Corporate yourself as a franchise of a larger corporation.  

The better to entrap you, the Municipal Government "presumes" that you want this "benefit" and confers a corporate persona on you, otherwise known as a STRAWMAN. 

Now you do have a choice-- you could conduct business with corporations as a Legal Person, instead of acting as a STRAWMAN or thinking up and maintaining a separate actual commercial corporation. 

A Legal Person is created when you cross the bar and enter the Queen's watery realm and take on the character of a Foreign Situs Trust.  Such Legal Persons are "dead" entities and can act in the realm of International Trade to deal with other Legal Persons and Corporations including Commercial Corporations.

This is in fact what the vast majority of us do on a daily basis, and so, we come under the Queen's Special Maritime Territorial Jurisdiction.  

If there is a contract in evidence that shows your name in all capital letters it is evidence that you were operating via the use of the Municipal STRAWMAN--- as a Municipal Franchise. 

We all have such a contract in evidence: the Birth Certificate. 

So there is the contract and the corporation made Party to any dispute about commercial banking, water and electric bills, college and car loans, mortgages and so on. 

You have to ask yourself --hmmm... do I want to act as a Legal Person in this transaction with the phone company and stand under the Queen's Special Maritime Territorial Jurisdiction? Or do I want to subject myself to a Municipal Court as one of their franchises? 

This is why our legal system has devolved into at best a Punch and Judy Show and why no issues of actual Public Law come forward in them--- everything is presumed to be either some kind of commercial or International Trade transaction. 

Your Lawful Person which can also engage in International Trade is routinely mistaken for a British Territorial Legal Person subject to the Queen's Special Maritime Territorial Jurisdiction or a STRAWMAN subject to the Pope's Municipal COURT--- and in neither case will you be able to be recognized as an American and as a Lawful Person without some hard work and creation of evidence on the Public Record. 

These two foreign governments-- the Queen's and the Pope's, have conspired to mask your identity so as to control you and pillage your assets using their foreign court systems to do it.

More Corroboration -- From David Straight

By Anna Von Reitz

I love David Straight because he tells it straight. No candy corn. No self-aggrandizement. No ego. Just the facts, ma'am. I love patriot guys like him, because they get the job done.

They may not be as aware of all the frou-frou-rah of the High Courts and diplomacy and history as our group tends to be, but boy, when it comes to nuts and bolts, some of those who are rising up now have got the weather gauge on the carpetbaggers from DC and they are bearing down on them at last.

It's like George S. Patton's character said at the beginning of the movie---Patton: -- "I actually feel sorry for those dirty ......" Sometimes I just sit at my desk and think of what happens when 300 million Americans wake up and really see what these goons have been up to? And I smile.

I want to thank Mike, one of my regular contributors, for sending the link to "CPS FRAUD & CLAIMING YOUR NATURAL RIGHTS" on YouTube at   https://youtu.be/ca_RgBN98Jw

This is real help for parents and grandparents struggling to curtail CPS, but it is even much more than that. It's a gem and worth watching clear through. Heck, even though it's long, watch it again.

Some of you who are just waking up are still in a daze and you think all this discussion of the Civil War and issues arising out of it makes no sense. That's a 154 years back in the rear-view mirror, you say. How could that still be causing problems for us today?

As David Straight points out in this video, every Act of Congress since 1861 contains a one sentence Disclaimer: "This Act shall not affect any right thus previously established."

Okay..... are all your cogs turning? What does this mean?

This is an admission, folks, that everything we've told you about the history and the capacity in which the Congress is acting, is true. They aren't passing any Public Laws; they are passing private corporate by-laws. And that is all they have been doing since 1861.

It's not a theory --- but there is a conspiracy. It's a conspiracy against fulfilling the constitutional agreements that the States and the People of this country are owed, a conspiracy against our form of government.

About an hour and a half into this video David lays out exactly how you can lawfully and legally take back control of your county. This is work that will have to be undertaken county by county.

So far our group has been concentrating on getting the actual State Assemblies resurrected and functioning with the proper political status and with the proper standing and in the right jurisdiction to conduct business --- but the assembly of the counties which takes place in tandem with the assembly of the States, is where the pedal really hits the metal in our daily lives.

As you do your paperwork to evidence your "return" to your birthright political status and join your State Assembly, you are also at the same time re-populating your county.

Now that you are assembling at that level, what do you do? David Straight tells you, step by step:

1. Run an ad for 21 days announcing a Public Meeting to be held at such and such a time, day, and place (at least 30 days out from when you start running the ad), to discuss the administration of county government.

2. Hold the meeting. Tell everyone the history and what has happened and what they can do to regain control of this runaway train. Take a vote to hold Public Elections.

3. Begin the next cycle of Public Notice. Run the ad for 21 days and announce that Public Elections to fill vacant County Offices will be held at such and such time, day, and place (at least 30 days out from when you start running the ad). Advertise a place where people can be nominated or self-nominate to fill a roster of County Offices ---- everything from Dog-catcher to County Assembly Chairman.

4. Hold the Election. Only people claiming their birthright political status and actually living in and having property in the county can vote as an Elector. If not everyone wishing to vote has papered up yet, they can sign an Elector's Declaration at the Polls before two qualified and verified members of the County Assembly saying that they are operating exclusively in their birthright political status as (Ohioans, Virginians, etc.) and have lived in and owned property in your county since ________ the date they were born in or moved to your county. They have to have been living in your county for at least a year and a day to meet the General Residency Requirement.

5. Then you begin a 90 Day Notice Period. Again, you publish an ad in the newspaper and run it for 21 days, announcing the results of the Public Election and giving Notice to all Incumbent County Officials that as of such and such time and date (for example, Friday, October 10th, 2019, at 4 p.m.) please have all personal property boxed up and removed from the public buildings and keys ready to turn in.

6. Public Elections always trump Private Elections. This is perfectly lawful and legal to do, and should meet no resistance. Upon the newly-elected cadre taking actual Office, they can bring forward a secondary Election using the same Notice Process to collapse the Municipal Corporation and operate the County in its unincorporated capacity.

It's worth saying the obvious: these Municipal Corporations shouldn't be operating on our soil. The Municipal Government is supposed to be strictly limited to the ten miles square of the District of Columbia, not hiring private security agents to patrol the streets of Rye, New York.

So, this is the "Next Step" coming right behind and in tandem with the assembling of the actual State Assemblies. As more and more counties are restored to operation, the County Courts will resume operation as American Common Law Courts. Ditto all the State Courts. No more surreptitious and deceitful rule by British Maritime Courts.

What, you say? We can get rid of these courts? Not exactly. There will still be legitimate Admiralty and Maritime Court business for them to do, but the end of their meddling with the people and with trespassing on the soil and land is already set aside for them, by the US Supreme Court in Milligan Ex Parte.

Instruction on the Third Sunday After Easter

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

The Church continues to rejoice and praise God for the Resurrection of Christ and sings accordingly at the Introit of this day's Mass:

INTROIT Shout with joy to God all the earth, alleluia: Sing ye a psalm to his name, alleluia. Give glory to his praise, alleluia, allel. allel. (Ps. LXV.) Say unto God: How terrible are thy works, O Lord! In the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee. 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 O God, who showest the light of Thy truth to such as go astray, that they may return to the way of righteousness, grant that all, who profess the Christian name, may forsake whatever is contrary to that profession, and closely pursue what is agreeable to it. 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 (I Peter II. 11-19.) Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims to refrain yourselves from carnal desires, which war against the soul, having your conversation good among the Gen­tiles: that whereas they speak against you as evil doers, they may, by the good works which they shall, behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation. Be, ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evil doers, and for the praise of the good: for so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: as free, and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God. Honor all men: Love the brotherhood: Fear God: Honor the king. Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward. For this is thanks‑worthy, in Jesus Christ our Lord.

EXPLANATION St. Peter here urges the Christians to regard themselves as strangers and pilgrims upon this earth, looking upon temporal goods only as borrowed things, to which they should not attach their hearts, for death will soon deprive them of all. He then admonishes them as Christians to live in a Christian manner, to edify and lead to truth the Gentiles who hated and calumniated them. This should especially be taken to heart by those Catholics who live among people of a different religion; for they can edify them by the faithful and diligent practice of their holy religion, and by a pure, moral life lead them to the truth; while by lukewarmness and an immoral life, they will only strengthen them in their error, and thus inure the Church. St. Peter also requires the Christians to obey the lawful authority, and therefore, to pay all duties and. taxes faithfully, because it is the will of God who has instituted lawful authority. Christ paid the customary tribute for Himself and Peter, (Matt. XVII. 26.) and St. Paul expressly commands that toll and taxes should be paid to whomsoever they are due. (Rom. XIII, 7.) St. Peter finally advises servants to obey their masters whether these are good or bad, and by so doing be agreeable to God who will one day reward them.

ASPIRATION Grant me the grace, O Jesus! to consider myself a pilgrim as long as I live and as such to use the temporal goods. Give me patience in adversities, and so strengthen me, that I may willingly obey the lawful authority, though its laws and regulations should come hard and its tribute press upon me.

GOSPEL (John XVI. 16‑22.) At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: A little while, and now you shall not see me: and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father. Then some of his disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me: and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, because I go to the Father? They said therefore: What is this that he saith, A little while? We know not what he speaketh. And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him, and he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me: and again a little while and you shall see me. Amen, amen I say to you, that you shall lament and weep, but the world shall rejoice: and you shall be made sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. A woman, when she is in labor, hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she hath brought forth the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. So also you now indeed have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice: and your joy no man shall take from you.

What is the meaning of Christ's words: A little while and you shall not see me; and again a little while and you shall see me?

St. Chrysostom applies these words, which Christ spoke to His apostles a few hours before His passion, to the time between the death of Jesus and His Resurrection; but St. Augustine, to the time between the Resurrection and the Ascension, and then to the Last judgment at the end of the world, and he adds: "This little while seems long to us living, but ended, we feel how short it is." In affliction we should console ourselves by reflecting, how soon it will terminate, and that it cannot be compared with the future glory, that is awaiting eternally in heaven him who patiently endures.

Why did our Saviour tell His disciples of their future joys and sufferings?

That they might the more easily bear the sufferings that were to come, because we can be prepared for sufferings which we know are pending; because He knew that their sufferings would be only slight and momentary in comparison with the everlasting joy which awaited them, like the pains of a woman in giving birth to a child which are great indeed, but short, and soon forgotten by the mother in joy at the birth of the child. "Tell me" says St. Chysostom, "if you were elected king but were obliged to spend the night preceding your entrance into your capital city where you were to be crowned, if you were compelled to pass that night in much discomfort in a stable, would you not joyfully endure it in the expectation of your kingdom? And why should not we, in this valley of tears, willingly live through adversities, in expectation of one day obtaining the kingdom of heaven?"

PETITION Enlighten me, O Holy Spirit! that I may realize that this present life and all its hardships are but slight and momentary, and strengthen me that I may endure patiently the adversities of life in the hope of future heavenly joys.

CONSOLATION IN TRIALS AND ADVERSITIES
You shall lament and weep. (John XVI. 20.)

That Christian is, most foolish who fancies that the happiness of this world consists in honors, wealth, and pleasures, while Christ, the eternal Truth, teaches the contrary, promising eternal happiness to the poor and oppressed, and announcing eternal affliction and lamentation to those rich ones who have their comfort in this world. How

much, then, are those to be pitied who as Christians believe, and yet live as if these truths were not for them, and who think only how they can spend their days in luxury, hoping at the same time to go to heaven where all the saints, even Christ the Son of God Himself, has entered only by crosses and sufferings.

PRAYER IN TRIBULATION O good Jesus! who hast revealed, that we can enter heaven only by many tribulations, (Acts XIV. 21 .) hast called them blessed who in this world are sad, oppressed, and persecuted, but patiently suffer, and who hast also taught us, that without the will of Thy Heavenly Father, not one hair of our head can perish: (Luke XXI. 18.) I therefore submit entirely to Thy divine will, and beg Thy grace to endure all adversities for Thy sake, that after this life of misery I may enjoy eternal happiness with Thee in heaven.

Quote from Second Comment About Michigan General Jural Assembly: 

"Anyway, the people running the Michigan General Jural Assembly have resisted the necessity of correcting their own political status and making it clear that they are acting exclusively as American State Citizens --- that is, as one of the People --- and without this "singular allegiance" being plainly executed, adopted, and on the public record for each one of the Jural Assembly Members, it's not possible for them to act in the capacity of "one of the People" and it is not possible for their assembly to act as a Body Politic for their actual State.

All their work is invalidated for failure to clearly and unequivocally declare their political status as American State Citizens with no other citizenship obligations.

Our Forefathers did this to prevent conflicts of interest. They did not intend that people holding Dual Citizenship of any kind would be empowered to make decisions affecting our land and soil."

Me? Zim? Threats???

By Anna Von Reitz

I own one piece of Zim currency.  It was sent to me by a Reader as a donation to The Living Law Firm.  That's it.  I have no investments in Zim and I certainly haven't "cheated" anyone out of any Zim investments that they had.  Nor have I "threatened" anyone regarding their investments in Zim.  

Must be the Doppelganger "Anna" whose exploits appear in the IRS Master file going around cheating people out of Zim and threatening them?  Maybe SHE fell on hard times?  Lost HER job at the rum distillery in Barbados? 

What I have said very clearly and several times is that investments in Zim are investments in Junk Bonds.  Sometimes, very, very rarely, like a horse race at 100 to 1 odds, an investment in Junk Bonds will pay off Big Time.  Usually you are lucky to get what you paid back out of them.  

People should know this straight up, but most people I have talked to who have invested in Zim and Iraqi Dinar have done so with the idea that this is a "sure thing" and just a matter of time before they get paid out in some complex, semi-secret plan involving different "tiers" of investors and going to military bases and signing Non-Disclosure Agreements, and all sorts of Cloak and Dagger stuff. 

Tellingly, from my point of view, that Big Pay Off Day never seems to come. It's always "right around the corner".  Tomorrow.  Next week.  Surely next month. 

In the case of "Zim" which is the national currency of Zimbabwe, American Military Contractors and Personnel purportedly set up a "sure thing" deal --- installing a puppet government in Zimbabwe to sell that nation's mineral wealth on the cheap, which would then magically appear as new assets backing the Zim.  

That would create a "rags to riches" story for those holding Zim as investments. What they paid a few pennies for, would suddenly be worth millions.  The story is similar with Iraqi Dinar. 

But what if that is all just Malarky?  What if the whole point was to raise American dollars from gullible investors to keep DOD contractors fed during the bankruptcy of the UNITED STATES, INC.?  

What if all the "secret military" work was just work to employ themselves at your expense, and the actual pillaging didn't involve Zimbabwean minerals at all?  What if it was just another screwball mercenary PsyOp to squeeze money out of the American home folk?  

Yeah, I know, I have all the idealism of a wet horse hair blanket.

I will admit that sometimes, very rarely, the rain falls upward,  the 100 to 1 horse comes in, and roses bloom in October in Alaska --- I have witnessed all those things, and I wouldn't have believed in or bet on any of them.  

Now, I know some very good, very kind, very sincere Christians who have gotten caught up in the Junk Bond trading schemes in Zim and Iraqi Dinar. 

They hope to be able to profit and use the money for wonderful projects---saving the environment, making water flow in the deserts of the world, feeding the hungry, bringing new tech to everyone, better medical care.... and if that is what comes from it, I am sure that the people of Zimbabwe will benefit greatly, too.  

Every cloud has a silver lining.  

As for me, I'd rather invest in American "Junk" Silver --- old United States Silver Dollars before 1933.   I am not holding my breath over any "RV" and I am not banking any future on cashing out junk bonds at millions to one odds. 

I certainly don't believe in or care enough about investments in Zim or Dinar to cheat anyone or threaten anyone over any of it.  Any claim that I did is pure loony-tunes. 

If the Junk Bond Traders profit themselves and finance wonderful projects all around the world, I will hope that the people of Zimbabwe and Iraq are richly rewarded, and I will pray for good results for everyone concerned.

Persons and Personage:

By Anna Von Reitz

This is a wonderful little excerpt about “persons” and “personage” --- a crime of impersonating living people that was forwarded by a Reader and originally published here: https://operationdisclosure1.blogspot.com/   as  (Reader Post) Thinker2: Decoding the Deception of the Capitalized Name.

Here is a succinct and complete list of all the common categories of “persons” there are. 

This is handy when you are reading “chapter and verse” to a Court in rebuttal of their presumptions---- “Let the record show that I am not a…..”

1. Corpse (a dead body / Grave Markers are capitalized—involuntary condition, servitude to Death) aka “Natural Person”.

2. Convicted Criminal (involuntary servitude under force, peonage)

3. Prisoner of War (POW) (political involuntary servitude under force)

4. Slave (involuntary servitude under force) includes Wards of States, Paupers, Mental Incompetents and Minors not of age; please note that in the Territorial United States, Convicted Criminals are Slaves.

5. Armed Forces (Military / LEO Police)

6. Public Servant (Government Employees other than Military or Police.)

7. Corporation (a fictional Person in colorable law---Legal Persons as opposed to Lawful Persons, doing-business-as “John’s Autobody and Repair”, for example, ----could also be a Lawful Person standing under the Common Law mistaken for a Legal Person; this is how they got the Great Fraud started, by “mistaking” one for the other.)

8. Colorable Person (A person in legal fiction / colorable law, for example, “Aunt Jemima” or “Colonel Saunders” or “The Scarlet Pimpernel”, a “character” like “Atticus Finch” or nom de guerre like “Ishmael” or “Sneaky Pete” or a titled entity such as “Mister”  or “Lord” or “Missus” or “President” or a Sign/Trademark like “JOHN DOE” or a Patented Invention Person like “Gumby” or “Bumblebee” or “The Terminator” or a Design Patent Person like “Diana von Furstenburg” or “Gloria Vanderbilt” or “Coco Chanel”.)

9. Commercial Licensee (Voluntary Surrendering Sovereignty for License)

10. Corporate Employee or Dependent (Voluntary Surrendering Sovereignty for Corporate Paycheck) for example, Marketing Manager, Public Relations Specialist, Editorial Consultant, Welfare Benefits Recipient, etc. 

I will add:

11.  Incorporated Persons --- Franchises, Franchisees, Voters, Members and Officials of Religious and Fraternal Organizations and Political Parties, etc.  

When living men and women are “masked” as “Persons”, they are acting in “unnatural capacities” --- except when they are acting as Lawful Persons engaged in trade. 

If you look at the list you will see that several of these capacities as “Persons” are involuntary and therefore, “Legal” because the “Subject” is not able to choose otherwise: Corpses/Natural Persons (dead bodies), Convicted Criminals, Prisoners of War, and the various kinds of Slaves are not responsible for their actions.

Now that you see how these monsters have colluded to reduce all of us to the status of incompetent “Legal Persons” for their own enrichment and to exercise oppressive power over us, let’s examine a few examples:

Our young men subjected to the Draft during Vietnam are all innocent of any crimes they may have committed because their actions were “involuntary” by definition—but the members of the Draft Boards conscripting them were voluntary, so the Draft Boards are fully liable.

So are the corporations and the corporate officials behind the Draft Boards—fully liable for press-ganging, kidnapping, enslavement, murder, and a host of other loathsome crimes.  LBJ should have been taken out and hung without a trial, just like any common cattle rustler in the Old West.

That’s a hard fact for most Americans to swallow, but it is nonetheless true.

Let’s look at another example:

All the military and police involved in the siege of the Branch Davidian Compound in Waco, Texas, are innocent because they were all “legally incompetent” and their actions were involuntary as a result; however, Janet Reno was fully liable every step of the way. So was the President.  So was the Congress.

There are obviously terrible things hidden under the rug in Washington, DC, horrible pervasive criminality, hypocrisy, and lawlessness cloaked under “color of law”.  And 90% of it hinges on one white collar crime: personage taking place in the international jurisdiction of the sea.

Who is responsible?  The Queen is fundamentally responsible as our Trustee on the High Seas and Navigable Inland Waters.  This crime occurs in her jurisdiction first and foremost and represents a fundamental crime of Breach of Trust resulting in crimes of State.

The Pope is also responsible as the Global Trustee and as the Roman Pontiff; these crimes have occurred secondarily in the global jurisdiction of the air and in the Municipal Jurisdiction of Rome. 

That is, the crimes of personage didn’t stop with the crimes occurring in the international jurisdiction of the sea; the Municipality of Washington, DC, and its government joined right in and nobody in the Catholic Hierarchy did jack-diddly to stop it until Benedict XVI.

So here we are, ten years later, and the Circle J Ranchero routine continues with everyone trying to avoid liability and gloss things over and keep attention focused on ridiculous inanities like Robert Mueller. 

Who gives a fine flying one?  Can I see a show of hands? 

Personage is the Name of the Game. 

Seating a new Emperor in Japan won’t stop it. Another US Election Boondoggle won’t change it.  Boorish Sedwill won’t alter it and neither will Ms. May.  Nothing political will change this circumstance, because this is not a matter of politics.

This is crime.  And all the lawyers reading this know it, too. 

The only thing that will change this is millions of people waking up and taking action to save themselves and their countries; a wholesale and mammoth push by the military and law enforcement would help, some politicians with spines would help, but at the end of the day, it comes down to you and me, Jaimie.

It’s either get out and push, or the stockyards and ear tags.  Your choice.
