By Anna Von Reitz
People ask me sometimes --- how did they do it? How could they come in after the (so-called) Civil War, and just demand that all the State Assemblies create new State Constitutions?
Part of the answer is this: They didn't demand new State Constitutions. They demanded new State of State Constitutions.
There's a difference.
A State is not a State of State.
A State of State is sometimes called a "Confederate State" which has then allowed less-than-scrupulous persons to characterize their State of State as "a" State.
It is far more correct to say that a "State of State" is a "form of State" --- but we are not here to pick bones, we are here to be aware that a State of State isn't really a "State" in the sense of being a nation-state or a State of the Union, and calling a "State of State" a "State" merely confuses the issues and identities without changing the nature of either one.
People who have been following along already know that there is also a big difference between a "person" and one of the "people".
A "person" in government parlance means a public official or employee or even a government franchise corporation, but the word "people" signifies a living man or woman.
Think about this for a moment. When you are elected (or appointed or hired) to do a government job, what happens? You are plugged into a position in a personnel system and become a cog in a hierarchic command structure.
You are no longer you, Cathy Meisner. Now, you are a "Clerk III" working for the Department of Labor.
Or you are "Mayor Funkwater", or "Commissioner Braithwaite", or "Congressman Blumenhorst".
Most "persons" have an obvious title or rank, whether or not it is military or civilian.
Thus, you may be "Sergeant Cooper" in the U.S. Army, or you may be " William Medivev, M.D." a Medical Doctor licensed by the American Medical Association (a Professional Union) -- which means you are conscripted and licensed to treat U.S. Citizens who are active duty military as a member of the "civilian military" service.
Who knew?
A person is quite different from one of the people and carries a taint of unreality. A person --- office, title, rank or function --- is potentially immortal. A person is, in effect, a separate identity. A mask. A person is a "persona" that you can pick up and lay down, making an easy transition from being on duty and off duty. Sometimes a "person" comes with a uniform, sometimes not.
The point is, your "person" if you have one, is not you --- it is the governmental equivalent of an acting role. Actors play "characters", while government employees take on the role of "persons", but it is an analogous situation.
With this in mind, imagine the Alaska Constitutional Convention taking place in 1956. There are fifty-five delegates total, 14 of whom are Esquires, literally in service to Her Majesty the Queen.
And they are writing a Constitution for an American State? Of course, not. They are writing a Constitution for a State of State, instead, in this case, the State of Alaska.
So let's look at the very first part of The Constitution of the State of Alaska, Article 1, Section 1, Declaration of Rights:
"This constitution is dedicated to the principles that all persons have a natural right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and the enjoyment of the rewards of their own industry; that all persons are equal and entitled to equal rights, opportunities, and protection under the law; and that all persons have corresponding obligations to the people and the State."
This entire section uses the word "person" throughout, until we get to the very last line, where "people" and "the State" are mentioned as those parties to be served.
This Constitution of the State of Alaska is obviously and literally a service contract for persons, not people. People are only mentioned in passing as the recipients of all this "service", and we may assume that our State of the Union and the Union State underlying it, are also being referenced in passing as "the State".
There is no mention in the Convention minutes or other records showing that the delegates were ever made aware of the meaning of the words "person" and "people" nor the difference in jurisdictions implied. The fourteen Esquires knew, but the rest of the delegates did not.
This precludes any possibility of an honest contract.
Please also note the mention of "obligation" to the "people" and "the State" --- these persons are obligated to serve us and our State.
Why? Because they are here working under The Constitution of the United States of America and The Constitution of the United States, respectively. They are Federales.
Now let's look at Section 2: Source of Government
"All political power is inherent in the people. All government originates with the people, is founded upon their will, and is instituted solely for the good of the people as a whole."
Now, all of a sudden, we are talking about people, not persons -- and they are hanging all the responsibility and liability for all this, including their own Constitution of the State of Alaska, on us, the people. This Section is where they, the foreign persons, make us responsible for paying their bills.
The persons are admitting that our actual government is vested in the living people, and that people are the source of the law, but this document, "this" Constitution is about the service contract of persons-- elected, appointed, hired or volunteering -- to serve the people.
The people were "represented" at the Constitutional Convention by the non-attorney delegates, but they were left playing with half a deck, and probably did not realize that once they became "delegates" they were acting as "persons", too.
So something else is going on here.
All the platitudes about serving the "people" and the "people" being the source of government, are all being parroted by persons representing people. Even the non-lawyers.
Think of it as the attorneys had two persons-- Esquire and Delegate and the other attendees had only one person: Delegate, but in the context of the Constitutional Convention, they were all acting as persons writing a service contract for persons, and not a single one of the people were present to vote on any of this.
The entire Constitution for the State of Alaska is a foreign document created by foreign persons, for foreign persons.
The Constitution for the State of Alaska creates a foreign State of State Government run by the State of Alaska, Incorporated, and persons in their employment.
Not only that, the same document creates another "state" government--- what we have called the "Municipal Twin".
Look at Article X, Section 2.
"All local government powers shall be vested in boroughs and cities. The State may delegate taxing powers to organized boroughs and cities only."
They are referencing "local government" powers of their foreign State of State, not any State Government organized by the people of Alaska.
We already have the foreign State of Alaska, Inc. with a suspect service contract called The Constitution of the State of Alaska, and now we also have the STATE OF ALASKA, INC.
Both of these are foreign governments with respect to the people of Alaska. Both are populated entirely by persons. Both are corporations -- one, the State of Alaska, Incorporated, is a commercial corporation, while the other, the STATE OF ALASKA, is a municipal corporation.
Not only that, they are franchise corporations of two parent corporations housed in the District of Columbia. The State of Alaska, Inc. is a franchise of the United States of America, Inc., while the STATE OF ALASKA,INC. was a franchise of the UNITED STATES, INC. This second entity went bankrupt and now, the STATE OF ALASKA, INC. is being run by something called ALASKA, INC.
"The State" they are referencing throughout most of The Constitution of the State of Alaska is only a State of State operated by a foreign commercial corporation, and can't be anything else, so they are claiming that a foreign commercial corporation has the power to tax.
How so? Can Wendy's or Target or GMC tax you? How does the State of Alaska, Inc., have any "powers of taxation" to hand on to the STATE OF ALASKA, INC.?
These venal corporations can and do "tax" and "license" their own employees and they can describe their employees as their "citizenry" and can give the appearance of a "State" with a population made up entirely of U.S. Citizens or a "STATE" with a population made up entirely of Municipal citizens of the United States.
But they are still not an actual State and they still have no power to tax the people of this State, Alaska, which has officially been a State of the Union since October 1st 2020. Their power to tax extends only to their foreign persons who are temporary "residents" in our State of the Union.
Since the 1930's the "persons" serving us have all been deemed to have Federal Dual Citizenship and to be obligated to serve in both capacities, so we see "State of Alaska Troopers" squad cars and "STATE OF ALASKA TROOPER" squad cars--- demonstrating one set of "Troopers" hired by the State-of-State and another set of "TROOPERS" hired by the Municipal "local government" STATE OF STATE created under Section X of The Constitution of the State of Alaska.
All of this, this entire structure, is foreign, is run by foreign persons who are employees of foreign corporations, and applies only to the respective foreign "persons" --- who are all foreign citizens, who are "residing" here among us, purportedly to serve us and our State of the Union.
So, here is how the Schtick goes:
(1) Create a Constitution for a State-of-State---created of, for, and by persons, not people, then begin deliberately confusing everyone by calling this a "State Constitution";
(2) Use the same "Constitution" to create a Municipal STATE OF STATE --- a secondary government for, of, and by persons that replaces our unincorporated county government system using cities and municipalities as the local government units instead.
(3) Both foreign entities work together to usurp against the actual people of each State and their actual State Assembly;
(4) The State of State organization, in this example, the State of Alaska, Inc., sets up the second STATE OF STATE organization, the STATE OF ALASKA, INC. to do the dirty work.
(5) The State of State pretending to be a "State" also claims to have "taxing authority" to "delegate" to the STATE OF STATE, but does a foreign commercial corporation like the State of Alaska, Inc. have the authority to tax people in Alaska? No.
Let's say it again:
The Constitution of the State of Alaska is a Constitution of the persons, by the persons, and for the persons.
The only "taxing authority" the State of Alaska, Inc., can claim is authority to tax its own citizenry -- their employees and their dependents --- and they are all acting as persons, not people.
So with that new understanding, let's look at what their Constitution of the State of Alaska actually says about their taxing authority:
Article 9, Section 1: Taxation
Taxing Power
"The power of taxation shall never be surrendered. This power shall not be suspended or contracted away, except as provided in this article."
They say their power to tax will "never" be surrendered, but what if they don't have any power to tax you in the first place?
And we need to be on the look-out for the "exception" that allows them to "suspend or contract away" this right to tax persons.
Before we do, let's look at Section 2:
Nondiscrimination
"The lands and other property belonging to citizens of the United States residing without the State shall never be taxed at a higher rate than the lands and other property belonging to the residents of the State."
We know that "citizens of the United States" refers to so-called Fourteenth Amendment citizens who are all Municipal "persons", so the persons acting under The Constitution of the State of Alaska are promising other persons serving the STATE OF ALASKA local government created under Article X of The Constitution of the State of Alaska, that they won't be gouged and will be treated like the other "residents of the State"
Note that there are two populations of persons being referenced here: Municipal "citizens of the United States" that are inhabiting the STATE OF ALASKA which is "without" -- meaning "outside of" -- the State of Alaska, in the separate local government STATE created by Article X of The Constitution of the State of Alaska.
Note that both populations of persons are "residing" either as "residents of the State" or "residing without the State". This implies that both sets of persons are visitors or sojourners in our State who are allowed to be here under The Residence Act---again underlining the fact that they are acting as foreign persons, and not as the people of Alaska.
We have plenty of proof, again, right here, that The Constitution of the State of Alaska is about persons, not people--- and there are two separate populations of such persons creating two different citizenries of their own, all residing on a temporary basis in Alaska.
So now we finally get to abuse of public trusts, the creme de la creme and lynchpin of the entire scheme to replace our government with a foreign government and to tax and pillage and plunder the people these "persons" are supposed to serve: Article 9, Section 5:
Interests in Government Property
"Private leaseholds, contracts, or interests in land or property owned or held by the United States, the State, or its political subdivisions, shall be taxable to the extent of the interests."
This allows the Interlopers to tax foreign holdings held "in trust" for "the United States", the actual State, Alaska, or our political subdivisions. This is their loophole to tax the people and to subject their employers as dependents.
For a long time, from January 3rd 1959 to October 1st 2020, Alaska like most of the so-called "Western States" organized during and after the Civil War, could not be enrolled as a true State of the Union, because the requisite pre-Civil War States were not in Session to enroll these new States.
These nascent States of the Union lapsed into a form of "Territorial Statehood" ---- what we are describing here, the substitution of two foreign State-of-State organizations for the actual State Government of the people.
The private land interests of the people are not "leaseholds" of land belonging to any foreign government, but the foreign "State of Alaska" and its local STATE OF ALASKA government substituting its "cities and boroughs" for our unincorporated Counties, have inserted themselves as trustees and middlemen administering foreign Public Trusts "for" Alaska and its people.
They have redefined us as "wards" and "dependents" and "citizens" of their State of State organizations, have imposed their own dual citizenship obligations on us, have imposed their own taxes on us, and they have used the purported absence of our actual State Government as an excuse to latch onto and "take title" to our land, our minerals and other physical assets.
So what is our actual State Government, of, for, and by the people?
It's an Assembly. Not a District Assembly. Not a Municipal Assembly. Not an assembly populated by "persons" --- a State Assembly populated by "people", not persons.
Realizing, at last, what the "persons" had organized against us and against our interests, we have expatriated en masse from all presumptions of U.S. Citizenship under the Expatriation Act of 1868, set in place as a remedy back when all this subterfuge began.
This simple written declaration exempting us from State of State citizenship obligations and "personhood" as U.S. Citizens also serves the purpose of exempting us from any corollary obligation to serve as Municipal :"citizens of the United States" --- as that has been secondarily imposed on U.S. Citizens.
We are not federalized "persons" of any stripe and we don't live in any "federalized states".
We don't "share" any "powers of sovereignty" with these foreign States of States or STATES OF STATES, either; we delegated certain enumerated and strictly limited powers to them, so that these foreign persons could provide certain enumerated services to us.
Having set our own houses in order and having reclaimed and clearly chosen our birthright political status as "people" not "persons", we have called our States, the States of the Union, back into Session and organized our State Assemblies.
Our State Assemblies which existed prior to the so-called American Civil War, all verifiably populated by people, not persons, were polled in a Roll Call Vote, to enroll the new States of the Union which had been developed between 1860 and 2019, as States of the Union as provided for under the Northwest Ordinance and Equal Footing Doctrine.
All the Western States including but not limited to Alaska, were duly enrolled as States of the Union as of October 1st 2020.
With the strokes of pens and the goodwill of the people already populating the original States of the Union, the people of Alaska entered into their true international sovereignty, no longer "absent, presumed dead", we and our State have reappeared and for the past five years, our State Assemblies have been in full operation.
We are not dependent on the State of Alaska and its persons to provide us with a government. We are not their wards, not their citizenry, nor are we their dependents. We are the people, not the "persons". We are the actual owners, not foreign trustees.
And if our employees don't approve of our way or doing business around the dinner table, and if we don't require 80 million codes and statutes to govern ourselves and our communities, as they apparently do, that is of no concern to them, as their role is simply as public employees, "obligated" to serve the people of Alaska.
That role assumed by the "persons" creating The Constitution of the State of Alaska does not entitle any foreign person(s) -- be they individuals or entire corporate bodies organized as boroughs or cities --- to impersonate us, tax us, evict us, make claims of foreign public trust ownership on our land, or allow them to misrepresent us as "renters" or "leaseholders" with "interests" in "government property".
It's our private property and our government's public property, not theirs.
We are the people, the actual parties of interest, the actual owners of Alaska and all its physical assets ---the people that these "persons" are "obligated" to serve and the State that they are obligated to serve, too,.
The same Schtick has been used in all the other States of the Union, creating a vast scheme by British Bar Attorneys and Municipal Public Employees to overturn the lawful government of this country and usurp upon the people who have faithfully employed them under the terms of The Constitution of the United States of America and The Constitution of the United States, respectively.
So now we are back home and in the saddle, riding our own range, mowing our own lawns, and nobody can say anything about it. Not our public employees operating State of State government operations. Not any other EMPLOYEES operating STATE OF STATE government entities in our States of the Union.
They are all strictly limited to the roles delegated to them under their respective Federal Constitutions and obligated to the Law of the Land and the Supremacy Clause contained in each of the Federal Constitutions.
Their legal overlays and False Presumptions are torn away like tissue paper before the actual governing Law, when it is held in the hands of the State Citizens and Instrumentalities of our American Government having the power to wield it.
So here we are, the people, not the persons.
We note our persons, which are not foreign persons, with respect to our State and "local" Union State governments, are the "persons" owed all the protections and due diligence imposed by Article IV of both The Constitution of the United States of America and The Constitution of the United States.
