Breaking Our Addictions

 

By Anna Von Reitz

Our ability to form habits cuts both ways.  If we form good habits, we reap the benefits.  Unfortunately, if we form bad habits the same is true.  If you plant carrots, you get carrots.... if you plant thistles, guess what?  

So this is Grandma talking to you about those addictions that harm you and your families  --- things that do no good, and by doing no good, actually cause harm --- as well as things that out-and-out cause harm to your health, to your relationships, and to your well-being overall.  

Too many people either inherit physical predilections that lead to various kinds of addiction,or are nurtured in an environment that leads to addictions, or develop addictions circumstantially.  This wastes their lives and talents and makes these people a burden on their families and on society at large. 

With up to 40% of all Americans suffering from some kind of addiction, it's time we dealt with it.  

Let me give you some examples of predisposed, cultural, and circumstantial addictions: 

Many Native Americans are predisposed to alcoholism because they lack adequate amounts of the enzymes needed to break alcohol down once it enters the bloodstream.  This is an example of a physically inherited factor that predictably lends itself to addictive behavior. 

Certain cultural factors also weigh in, for example, alcoholism is more common in communities where the pub is a venerated local institution, and drinking is part of the tradition marking all major occasions-- births, weddings, and deaths.There's a reason that Irishmen are famous for drinking to excess. 

In America, right now, we are dealing with large numbers of veterans maimed in nasty conflicts all over the globe.  These men and women often suffer horrific pain on the long road toward recovery, and not a few become addicted to painkillers.  This is no fault of theirs --- it's a circumstantial addiction.  

But all these addictions can be outsmarted and overcome.

When you account for the physical and cultural factors that support a particular addiction, there's only one wildcard left ----- each one of us.  

We are the ones that ultimately decide the impact of all the rest.
 
We are the Gatekeepers who say "yes" or "no" at the end of the day, and this is why addiction is also always a profoundly lonely thing.  If it becomes a struggle, it's always a struggle with me, myself, and nobody else. 

In my lifetime I have known people who have been addicted to a dizzying array of things --- from ball games to Cheetohs, from Meth to Marijuana, from beer to Pall Malls, from whiskey to sex, from Crack to Smack to cheap gin and chocolate, from card games to race tracks, from pasta to cheese sauce, Cuban cigars, and licorice. 

I've even known people who have been addicted to their idea of government; because their fantasy belief in government made them feel all cozy and secure,  they could never get enough of Big Brother, either.  They want more government control, more government intervention, more government programs, more government giveaways -- in exactly the same way a whiskey addict wants more whiskey.  

I've seen bankers who --- despite knowing all the secrets of their trade and knowing (for sure) that money is just a shady commodity like lipstick -- have been overcome by greed and finagled to get more money and credit amassed than they could ever possibly spend in dozens of lifetimes. 

Whatever the object of the addiction, the process is the same.
  
The addict becomes habituated to the addictive agent, the addictive agent fulfills their craving for a short time---- and then leaves the victim wanting more. More. MORE. 

Observe the cigarette cycle: the addict feels nervous and smokes a cigarette to get a hit of nicotine; nicotine (a very effective nerve poison) appears to calm their nerves (by poisoning them); the nicotine eases off and the addict gets nervous again--- because their nerves are being poisoned and irritated by the nicotine. 

As the addict's nerves become more and more irritated, they need more and more nicotine to calm down.  

This same basic theme of the addictive agent causing the problem that it appears to cure is common as dirt and applies to Democrats, tobacco, alcohol, many drugs, and many food addictions.  

How else can you explain the addiction of Chicago voters to Democrat politicians?  They have had control of the city government for almost a hundred years and have steadily driven the people into poverty and the government into ruin, yet because they appear to be the cure for the problems they are causing, people continue to vote them in---- just like a drunk "takes the cure". 

It's the same process.  The addictive agent appears to cure the problem(s) that they are in fact causing. 

The foods you crave, you are actually allergic to.  

For example, people who are sensitive to sodium chloride (table salt) may become addicted to chips and pickles and other things that are high in salt content.  People who are lactic acid intolerant crave milk, cheese, and yogurt.

Nobody caught in the clutches of an addiction can get enough of whatever is making them poor, sick, and miserable.  

It's this last part that turns something as innocuous as liking crackers with your soup into a harmful addiction.

With an addiction, you are tricked into the idea that you can never get enough of whatever it is, and so, by definition, you can't. 

See how that works?  If you think, for example, that two glasses of wine isn't "enough" --- then two glasses isn't enough for you in any case, because that's what you believe.

In this way, addiction becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.    As a friend struggling with alcoholism once described it, "One is too many and ten is not enough."

So, what to do?  Want some proven and practical advice? 
 

Changing your thinking can change your beliefs and changing your beliefs can change your habits and actions.  

All interactive programs designed to break addictions work on the same premise, but some programs operate from a basis of guilt and will power, while others -- like Allen Carr's --- go at it from the opposite direction, and bring forward your actual self-interest.  

Like some carnival and casino games (and government programs, too) there is no winning from an addiction --- whether its an addiction to booze or welfare or candy corn or painkillers or political parties.  It's a lose-lose proposition from the start.
  
Once you truly realize that, it's amazing how easy it is to quit whatever addiction has its hooks in you, because you see that there is no Either/Or proposition involved. 
  
Instead, it's an Either/Either proposition, and just like the Democrats versus the Republicans, you lose either way.  

If my-Mother-didn't-love-me belly-button staring group session therapy isn't working and the traditional "you're guilty of sin, you-have-to-man-up, and get serious!" Twelve Step programs are falling flat --- try Allen Carr's route out of the addiction jungle. 
 
Start focusing on winning, instead of looking at it in terms of loss avoidance, and you'd be amazed what you can do and the mountains you can move. 

With 40% of Americans struggling with addictions of one kind or another, there's no doubt that we need to stop, look, and listen.

The Hegelian Dialectic of causing a problem, presenting the solution, and getting your way with the victims--- applies all across the board ---- at the bar, in the bedroom, the Board Room, the grocery store, the gas station, and everywhere else you care to look.  

We are under siege and being victimized by addictions as a result of our own gullibility, our failure to identify the actual sources of our problems, and our failure to take action. 

If you are struggling with addiction, or someone you love is ---- a condition that  affects nearly all of us in one way or another --- check out Allen Carr's answer. 

Earlier I said that addiction is a lonely battle, because it's one on one with yourself, but it doesn't have to be as lonely as it currently is.  Many communities shun addicts and refuse to face the huge problem of addiction. 
 
When we bury our heads in the sand is when we catch it on the butt.  

With 40% of Americans struggling with some form of addiction, this has gone beyond the point of being a private matter.  This is a public issue.  We literally cannot afford to have almost half of our people incapacitated and unable to function because of drugs, tobacco, and alcohol.
    
Remember that the first prerequisite of self-governance is being able to govern yourself, so for a government like ours that does not pretend to be a Nanny State, addiction is a major stumbling block. 
 
Unlike the Federal Government which makes its money from regulating controlled substances and the sale of controlled substances, our government is highly motivated to stem the tide of addiction. 

Unlike the Federal Government which receives more money every time an American gets sick, becomes an addict, or is unemployed, our government is motivated to promote actual health, independence and full employment. 

The kind of life you live and the government you have depends on the choices that you make.

What works in the fight against alcoholism works against any addiction you can name.

The Pharmaceutical Narrative is Failing

 And a group of doctors is helping push it over the edge.

Instruction on the Tenth Sunday After Pentecost

 Rev. Fr. Leonard Goffine's

The Church's Year

At the Introit of the Mass pray with the Church for God's help to guard us against our enemies:

INTROIT When I cried to the Lord, he heard my voice, from them that draw near to me, and he humbled them, who is before all ages, and remains forever. Cast thy care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee. (Ps. LIV.) Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication; be attentive to me, and hear me. 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 dost manifest Thine almighty. power above all in showing pardon and pity: multiply upon us Thy mercy, that we running forward to the attainment of Thy promises, may be made partakers of Thy heavenly treasures. 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 Cor. XII. 2-11 .) Brethren, You know that when you were heathens; you went to dumb idols according as, you were led. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith. Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say: the Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost. Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit; and there are diversities of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all. And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit. To one, indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: to another, faith in one Spirit: to another, the working of miracles: to another, prophecy: to another, the discerning, of spirits: to another, divers kinds of tongues: to another, of speeches. But all these things one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.

EXPLANATION The apostle here reminds the Corinthians of the great grace they received from God in their conversion, and urges them to be grateful for it; for while heathens, they cursed Jesus, but being now brought to the knowledge of the Spirit of God, they possess Christ as their Lord and Redeemer who can be known and professed only by the enlightenment of the Holy Ghost. The holy Spirit works in different ways, conferring His graces on whom He wills; to one He gives wisdom to understand the great truths of Christianity; to another the gift of healing the sick; to another the gift of miracles and of prophecy; to another the gift of discerning spirits, to know if one is governed by the Spirit of God, or of the world, Satan and the flesh; to another the gift of tongues. The extraordinary gifts, namely, those of working miracles, and of prophesying became rarer as the faith spread, whereas the gifts which sanctify man will always remain the same.,

Tenth Sunday After PentecostGOSPEL (Luke XDII. 9-14.) At that time, Jesus spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others. Two men went up into the Temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a Publican. The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this Publican. I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I possess. And the Publican standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven, but struck his breast, saying: O God, be merciful to me a sinner. I say to you: this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: because every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Why did Christ make use of' this parable of the Pharisee and the Publican?

To teach us never proudly to condemn or despise a man, even though he should appear impious, for we may be deceived like the Pharisee who despised the Publican, whom he considered a great sinner, while, in reality, the man was justified before God on account of his repentant spirit.

What should we do before entering a Church?

We should reflect that we are going into the house of God, should therefore think what we are about to say to Him, and what we wish to ask of Him. That we may make ourselves less unworthy to be heard, we should humble ourselves as did Abraham, (Gen. XVIII. 27.) remembering that we are dust and ashes, and on account of our sins unworthy to appear before the eyes of God, much less to address Him , for He listens to the prayers of the humble only, (Ps. CI, 18.) and gives them His grace, while He resists the proud. (James IV. 6.)

Was the Pharisee's prayer acceptable to God?

No, for it was no prayer, but boasting and ostentation; he praised himself, and enumerated his apparent good works. But in despising others and judging them rashly he sinned grievously instead of meriting God's grace.

Was the Publican's prayer acceptable to God?

Yes, for though short, it was humble and contrite. He stood afar off, as if to acknowledge himself unworthy of the presence of God and intercourse with men. He stood with downcast eyes, thus showing that he considered himself because of his sins unworthy to look towards heaven, even confessed himself a sinner, and struck his breast to punish, as St. Augustine says, the sins which he had committed in his heart: This is why we strike our breast at certain times during Mass, for by this we acknowledge ourselves miserable sinners, and that we are sorry for our sins.

ON PRIDE AND VAIN GLORY

We should learn from this gospel that God looks upon the humble and exalts them, but is far from the proud. (Ps. CXXXVII. 6.) The Pharisee went to the temple entirely wrapt up in himself, and the good works which he thought he had performed, but returned empty and hated by God; the Publican, on the contrary, appearing before God as a public but penitent sinner, returned justified. Truly,. an humble sinner is better in the sight of God than a proud just man!

He who glories in his own good works, or performs them to please men, or to win their praise, loses his merit in the eyes of the most High, for Christ says: Take heed that you do not your justice before men, to be seen by them: otherwise you shall not have a reward of your Father who is in heaven. (Matt. VI. 1.)

In order that we may learn to despise vain glory, these doctrines should be well borne in mind. We should consider that it will happen to those who seek after vain glory, as to the man who, made many toilsome journeys on land and sea in order to accumulate wealth, and had no sooner acquired it than he was shipwrecked, and lost all. Thus the ambitious man avariciously seeking glory and honor will find, when dying, that the merit which he might have had for his good works, is now lost to him, because he did not labor for the honor of God. To prevent such an evil, strive at the commencement of every good work which you undertake, to turn your heart to God by a good intention.

But that you may plainly recognize this vice, which generally keeps itself concealed, and that you may avoid it, know that pride is an inordinate love of ostentation, and an immoderate desire to surpass others in honor and praise. The proud man goes beyond himself, so to speak, makes far more of himself than he really is, and, like the Pharisee, despises others; the humble man, on the contrary, has a low estimate of himself, looks upon himself as nothing and, like the Publican, despises no one but himself, and thus is pleasing in the sight of God.

ASPIRATION O God, who hearest the prayers of the humble, but dost resist the proud, I earnestly beseech Thee to give me an humble heart, that I may imitate, the humility of Thy only begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, and thereby merit to be exalted with Him in heaven.

INSTRUCTION ON GRACE

In the epistle of this day the Apostle St. Paul speaks of the different gifts of the Holy Ghost which He distributes as He pleases. These extraordinary graces which the apostle mentions, are not necessary for salvation. But the Church teaches, that the grace of the Holy Ghost is necessary for salvation, because without it we could neither properly believe, nor faithfully observe the commandments of God. For the holy religion of Jesus teaches, and experience confirms, that since the fall of our first parents we are weak and miserable, and of ourselves, and by our own strength, we cannot know or perform the good necessary for our salvation. We need a higher aid, a higher, assistance, and this assistance is called grace.

What, then, is grace?

Grace is an inward, supernatural gift which God through His infinite goodness, and in consideration of Christ's merits, grants us to enable us to work out our salvation.

Grace is a gift, that is, a present, a favor, a benefit. It is an inward and supernatural gift; an inward gift, Because it is bestowed upon man's soul to distinguish it from external gifts and benefits of God, such as: food, clothing, health; grace is a supernatural gift, because it is above nature. In creating our souls God gives us a certain degree of light which enables us to think, reflect, judge, to acquire more or less knowledge: this is called natural light. In the same way He gives our souls the power in some measure to overcome sensual, vicious inclinations; this power is called natural power (virtue). To this natural light and power must be added a higher light and a higher power, if 'man would be sanctified and saved. This higher light and higher power is grace. It is, therefore, called a supernatural gift, because it surpasses the natural power of man, and produces in his understanding and in his will wholesome effects, which he could not produce without it. For example, divine faith, divine love is a supernatural gift or grace of God, because man of his own power could never receive as certain God's revelations and His incomprehensible mysteries with so great a joy and so firm a conviction, and could never love God above all things and for His own sake, unless God assisted him by His grace.

God grants us grace also through pure benevolence without our assistance, without our having any right to it; He grants it without cost, and to whom He pleases; but He gives it in consideration of the infinite merits of Christ Jesus, in consideration of Christ's death on the cross, and of the infinite price of our redemption. Finally, grace is a gift of God, by which to work out our salvation, ,that is, it is only by the grace of God that we can perform meritorious works which aid us in reaching heaven. Without grace it is impossible for us to perform any good action, even to have a good thought by which to gain heaven.

From this it follows that with the grace of God we can accomplish all things necessary for our salvation, fulfill all the commandments of God, but without it we can do nothing meritorious. God gives His grace to all, and if the wicked perish, it is because they do not cooperate with its divine promptings.


How is grace divided?

Into two kinds, actual and sanctifying grace.

Actual grace is God's assistance which we always need to accomplish a good work, to avoid sin which we are in danger of committing, or that grace which urges us on to good, and assists us in accomplishing it; for it is God, says the Apostle Paul, (Phil. II. 13.) who worketh in you both to will and to accomplish. If a good work is to be performed by us, God must enlighten our mind that we may properly know the good and distinguish it from evil; He must rouse our will and urge it on to do the known good and to avoid the evil; He must also uphold our will and increase our strength that what we wish to do, we may really accomplish.

This actual grace is, therefore, necessary for the just, that they may always remain in sanctifying grace, and accomplish good works; it is necessary for the sinner that he may reach the state of sanctifying grace.

What is sanctifying grace?

It is the great benefit which God bestows upon us, when He sanctifies and justifies us; in other words: sanctifying grace is the love of God, given to us by the Holy Ghost, which love dwells in us and whose temple we become, or it is the advent and abiding of God in our hearts, as promised in the words of Jesus: If any one love me he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and will make our abode with him. (John XVI. 23.)

He who possesses sanctifying grace, possesses the greatest treasure that a man can have on earth. For what can be more precious than to be beautiful in the sight of God, acceptable to Him, and united with Him! He who possesses this grace, carries within himself the supernatural image of God, he is a child of God, and has a right to the inheritance of heaven.

How is this sanctifying grace lost?

It is lost by every mortal sin, and can only be regained by a complete return to God, by true repentance and amendment. The loss of sanctifying grace is a far greater injury than the loss of all earthly possessions. How, terrible, then, is mortal sin which deprives us of this treasure!

"Elected" or "Voted In"?

 

By Anna Von Reitz

There is a great deal of confusion about the various election processes that are ongoing --- who is being elected to what office and with what authority and by whom --- these are the questions that have to be asked and answered.
First, there is the Great Divide between Public Elections and Private Elections, or as I describe them, Unincorporated Elections and Corporation Elections.
The more proper way of describing what happens in a corporation's shareholder "elections" is that the candidates filling corporate offices are "voted in" ---- not actually elected at all.
This is another one of those semantic deceits and confusions that result from the use of legalese in common parlance.
When you elect someone to Public Office they have serious responsibilities and owe their service to the Public Good. That's why we say that they are doing their Public Duty when they accept such an office and make oaths (sea jurisdiction) or affirmations (land jurisdiction) consciously accepting those responsibilities.
But when you, acting as a shareholder, vote someone into a private office in a corporation, you are not actually electing them --- you are "voting them into office" and they don't owe any particular debt to the Public Good. All they are responsible for is making profit and performing contractual obligations in exchange for a paycheck.
As you can now see, these are profoundly different kinds of "elections" and they result in people holding profoundly different kinds of "offices". Moreover, those who are taking part in these various electoral processes are acting in different capacities.
The people who elect members of their own body politic to Public Office are acting in a different capacity than those who are acting as persons and voting in private corporation elections as shareholders.
Sadly, public elections for Public Office have become very rare in this country--- so rare in fact that the appearance of an actual Public Officer is a shock and requires explanation.
This is because we have been mistaken and misled into thinking that the private corporation elections --- both Municipal and Territorial --- that spasmodically impact our country are public elections when they are not, and haven't been for many decades.
I have observed to you all that our government "of, for, and by" the people of this country is not always in Session.
I have also observed to you that we have been misidentified as foreigners in our own country by falsely registering us as British Territorial United States Citizens soon after we are born, so that we are unable to act as people and conduct actual public elections or hold actual public offices as adults until we rebut these "Legal Presumptions".
Thankfully, we have overturned these Legal Presumptions and are well on our way to repopulating this entire country and are holding actual Public Elections to fill actual Public Offices again.
Our process for doing this has nothing to do with political parties.
Everything that you see going on in the world of "Republicans" and "Democrats" is foreign to us and always has been.
These are "elections" of corporate officers working for the foreign Federal Subcontractors and their "federated" State of State franchises and Municipal franchise operations.
These corporate elections are carried out by the shareholders and employees of these corporations and they result in electing new CEO's --- Presidents, Governors, and Mayors -- of private corporations that are acting in a "custodial capacity" with respect to our assets.
Read that --- they aren't our Presidents, Governors, or Mayors.
They are occupying private corporate offices that have been given similar names for purposes of fraud and deceit.
They are our Subcontractors, but they are not occupying our Public Offices. They can't occupy our offices, because our offices require us to act as people not "persons", while their offices require the exact opposite. They have to act as "persons", not people.
So they can't occupy our Public Offices because they are acting as Legal Persons and as Shareholders of these private, foreign, for-profit governmental services corporations dba "the" United States, Incorporated, and "the" United States of America, Incorporated ---- but they can sure gum things up and confuse everyone involved.
Recently, a question surfaced as to authorities possessed by County Sheriffs versus authority possessed by Governors of States of States and Mayors of Municipalities, since they are all elected officials?
Who elected them? People? Or Persons? Or PERSONS?
That tells you the source of their authority and the nature of their office.
If Americans acting as the People of this country elected them, they have authority and they have Public Office and they have responsibility to match that authority. A County Assembly Sheriff duly elected by Americans acting in their birthright capacity is the highest Peacekeeping Official in the country --- within the boundaries of their county.
A "Sheriff" or "Governor" or "Mayor" elected by our employees as an elected official within their corporation's structure has the same kind of limited authority that a Floor Walker, Board Member, or Store Manager has when employed by Walmart, Inc., or Ben and Jerry's, Inc.
Their edicts, mandates, codes, regulations, and statutes may serve "as law" for their actual employees and dependents, but they have no actual authority related to the Public-at-Large.
This is why a simple Sheriff properly elected to his Public Office, for example, as Macon County Sheriff by Georgians who have affirmed their birthright political status has far more power and authority than the Governor of the State of Georgia who is elected by shareholders of the State of Georgia, Inc.
This is also why Americans who have taken up the mantle of self-governance and who act, for example, as Georgians, don't vote in the foreign political party elections.
That would be like the Lord of the Manor getting involved in a squabble among his domestic staff over who gets to act as Chief Cook.
If it is an election process to determine who acts as Chief Cook (or President) it's being allowed by the Lord of the Manor-- who at any moment retains the right to hire, fire, and organize the personnel on his payroll as he sees fit, regardless of their druthers. So why would he sign up and vote in their in-house domestic "elections"?
He wouldn't. And neither do we.
State Nationals who maintain Dual Federal Citizenship for any reason can certainly participate in the private shareholder elections of the federal service corporations and should do so --- and should vote wisely and in favor of what is best for America.
The rest of us are engaged in the actual Public Election process which results in people holding actual Public Office, and doing their actual Public Duty.
Please notice that just as a "Sheriff" may not be holding Public Office and may not have the authority of Public Office, not all "Assemblies" are equal.
Driving home last night I saw a campaign sign for someone running for an Assembly Seat in "District 4".
Whenever you see references to "Voting Districts" or "Districts" in general, you are dealing with what? The District (of Columbia) Government ---- the British Territorial Government.
This is a "district assembly" of the U.S. Citizens living in your State ---- but it is not the State Assembly that you are owed and are heir to as an American.
You and your government and your Assembly have been unlawfully converted and/or depopulated with malice aforethought by your usurping British and Papist Subcontractors.
It's up to you to see through the deceits and word games and come home to populate your own country and your own natural jurisdiction on the land and soil.
It's also your responsibility to do your Public Duty and to educate your "house staff" regarding the authorities, roles, and Public Laws involved. Most especially, it is your responsibility to teach your public employees where their authority begins and ends, as spelled out in the Constitutions.
Nobody else can do it for you.

IT'S JUST A MASK

The Civilian Government

 

By Anna Von Reitz

Let's begin: the civilian government is not the same as the civil government.
The civilian government stands over and directs both the military and the civil government.
The civilian government does not use political parties to conduct business or dictate elections.
Stop and re-read and think about that. No political parties.
The actual civilian government of this country has groups that propose changes and that argue for this change or that change, but there are no established lobbying organizations that endure for decades at a time --- no "Democrat" and no "Republican" political lobbies.
That is a foreign European tradition that was imported by Communists who came here in 1848, when they were kicked out of their home countries for causing trouble during the 1848 Workers Rebellion in Europe.
They had organized to advocate for better wages and working conditions and for basic rights and freedoms similar to what Americans enjoyed, but their thought processes were so indoctrinated in the European tradition that they couldn't function as Americans---- and so, they brought their political parties and guilds and other problematic institutions with them to this country and shared the joy.
Like a common case of syphilis.
We, Americans, don't vote. We elect. And we certainly don't participate in private corporate elections that pertain only to our employees and the internal workings of their service organizations. We have our own elections and issues to worry about.
We'd like to work with Donald Trump because he keeps his word --- but if we get stuck working with some other officer of the corporation, or have to directly address the Pope, the Queen, or the Lord Mayor ---- it's all the same to us.
The civilian government is an unincorporated business. It is run like a business according to facts and practical circumstances. It is not substantially interested in opinions, beyond healthy debate of factual information.
We don't get into pity-potty. We don't favor some "citizens" over others. We don't engage in partisan political agendas, because political parties don't exist in our actual government.
Instead, we are all Americans, and we are all here for the good of America, and that's all there is to that.
This united front and the simplicity of our system of "politics" is a great advantage.
Our electoral process costs almost nothing, remains fact-driven, and therefore avoids all the hysterics and lies and deceits.
In our system of things, you have choices to make and issues to debate, but it isn't the pathetic sideshow so obvious in the political party offerings today.
One wonders when the Democrat bought-and-paid-for Press will start criticizing President Trump's sideburns. They are two long. They aren't long enough. Surely it reveals lack of moral character to wear your sideburns too long? Or, alternatively, surely it shows a dangerous lack of mental stability to wear them too short?
You might as well have a group of Stone Age witch doctors driving public policy.
So come home to sanity. Populate your actual government and do your Public Duty.

The Voluntary End of America Due to a Coronavirus Hoax

From Lew Rockwell.com
by Gary D. Barnett

Unemployment has surged to levels never before seen in this country, but not one politician has lost his job due to any lockdown. There were over 40 million job losses by the end of May due to government mandates, and this deliberately structured second phase plot will see that number continue to increase dramatically. Not only will many more lose their jobs, but also millions of those jobs will be lost permanently. How is it that those that created and implemented this fake pandemic, from the banking and corporate heads, the tax exempt foundations, the ‘health’ organizations and pharmaceutical companies, and the politicians that serve their interests, have been unaffected by this insanity? Why is it that the top tier of so-called elites and all the politicians are still employed and gaining great wealth while the rest of Americans are suffering and dying? What on earth is essential about a politician, and why are they living in the lap of luxury while this country is driven to hell?

“You [the peasant] yield your bodies unto hard labor in order that he [the tyrant or the state] may indulge in his delights and wallow in his filthy pleasures; you weaken yourselves in order to make him the stronger and the mightier to hold you in check.”

Three Reasons --- A Message For America's Veterans from James Belcher

From James Belcher

I don't often speak up, so I hope you will listen when I do. 

There are three (3) reasons for you to take this message to heart.

First, your country is at risk and needs you. 
Second, your countrymen are at risk and they need you. 
Third, your own future is at risk and you need to take action for your own sake. 

I spent a total of six years in military and agency service just prior to and during "the Vietnam Conflict".  I always wondered why all the simpering and refusal to call it for what it was --- The Vietnam War?  

Technically, as most of us now know, what went on in Vietnam wasn't defined as a war.  It was a "mercenary conflict", also known as a "police action".  And technically, we were never soldiers, either.  

We were cheap mercenaries sold by the politicians to serve foreign interests, just like the Hessians. Many of us were conscripted by an illegal draft system against our will. None of us were told our true status as mercenaries at the time, or afterward. We had to figure it out by ourselves. 

For me, the revelation began with Robert McNamara, United States Secretary of Defense, and an obscure BBC broadcast in which he explained the technical difference between a "conflict" and a "war".  

European audiences were better informed about what we were doing than we were. 

This is just one example of what you haven't been told.  

Here's another.  

Did you know that if you served at any time since 1946 and were discharged from military service --- honorably or dishonorably --- you are still in the service? 

Prior to 1946 when you left military service, it was legally presumed that you returned home to your original political status as an American, and that you were no longer under any obligation to the federal government and no longer adopting any kind of federal citizenship.  

But in 1946, all that changed.  The reason for the change was originally to save money and avoid giving WWII Veterans benefits that they had earned.  

Every man who returned home was supposed to be given a stock portfolio as part of the payment for his service.  So they changed the definitions to make sure that those men, and those of us who followed after them in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and countless other foreign battlegrounds, never came home. 

Technically.  According to the legal definitions.  Again. 

If you have been discharged from any branch of the United States military at any time since 1946, you haven't really been discharged from service obligations.  

Instead of presuming that you went home to your natural political status as an American after leaving military service, they have presumed that you stayed in federal jurisdiction and that you volunteered to continue an endless tour of duty in an undisclosed reserve status.   

I remember listening to a group of Marines drilling at Sheppard Air Force Base, and hearing all those men shouting, "I am an American!"  

I wonder how they'd feel if they knew that there is a big and ugly difference between being an "American" and being a "US Citizen"?  

I wonder how my buddies from the Nam Era would feel if they knew that they'd been served up as cheap mercenaries?  And never got what they were owed as benefits for it? 

I wonder how any American Veteran would feel if they knew that they were never properly discharged from federal service and federal jurisdiction, and that that "lapse" on the part of the politicians and their flunkies meant that they lost their constitutional guarantees and the freedoms they fought for?  

It also means that we paid "federal income taxes" whether or not we had any income from federal sources.  It means we got stuck paying mortgages owed by foreign governments.  It means we were the goats, the targets, the easy marks. 

And they got away with it, because we stupidly, trustingly, believed that the Federal Subcontractors were our government. And we trusted our government. 

About now, you are feeling the sock in the gut.  Maybe some of you are in denial and angry with me for saying all this.  I was angry, too, and for a long time, I didn't know where to go or what to do about it.  Now, I do. 

The first step is to send a Registered Letter, Return Receipt Requested, to the head of your former branch of service or services, if you served in more than one, informing him or her that you have been discharged and are returning to your birthright political status--- and please amend your records accordingly. 

Now, you are finally "home" and the U.S. Government has no plausible excuse for presuming otherwise. 

Next, declare and record your birthright political status.  Your parents weren't told that they needed to do this for you, so it didn't get done.  It's up to you to make a public declaration that you are a Minnesotan, Texan or Vermonter.... 

Next, get off the hump and join your State Assembly organization.  You are part of a State, not a State-of-State.  

A State-of-State, like the State of Florida, is a business organization hired to do work for the State under a service contract known as the State of [Whichever] Constitution. 

Most likely, you are an Employer, not an Employee --- and you are being inappropriately taxed and bossed around by your employees.  It's time to change all of that. 

And I already told you why: for the sake of your country, your countrymen, and yourself. 

We've all been lied to, cheated, bilked, and are now threatened with civil war by these hirelings, these foreign political parties, and the politicians pretending to to "represent" us.  

You may have heard that Mr. Trump recently ordered 600 million vaccine shots.  If you've ever served in the United States military, your health has already been severely undermined by experimental vaccines and exposure to nuclear waste and other forms of radiation and pollution.  

Now the Federal Corporations, the foreign subcontractors responsible for these outrages, are proposing to "mandate" untested vaccines for the general population of this country and they think that they can get away with it by pretending that we are all "U.S. Citizens" and not Americans. 

You may assume that this is being done in response to an outbreak of a dangerous strain of the Common Flu Virus ---- but no virus known as Sars-Cov-2 or Covid-19, has ever been isolated or identified.  

And no vaccine manufacturer or government is standing good for damages caused by this vaccine, either. 

About now, the Red Alert Alarm Bells should be going off in your heads and you should be thinking ----WTF? 

Bill Gates and Friends, including Dr. Fauci, have developed a patented RNA vaccine.  This inserts a tiny scrap of patented RNA into your cells, and gives the owners of that patent an excuse to say that they own you, because they own that tiny scrap of implanted and privately patented RNA. 

They are aiming at creating 600 million slaves worldwide, owned body and soul by the USA, Inc.  

They assume that you are going to roll up your sleeves, and as long as you allow them to misidentify you as a U.S. Citizen, they think they have the right to force you and your family to do so.   

It is well-past the time that the politicians and the puppet master bankers behind all this got a needle shoved where the sun don't shine, but the first step is for you to "come home" --- write that letter and exonerate yourself from any presumption of continued federal service.  Do it today

Then follow up with your State Assembly and declare and record your political status as an American--- not a U.S. Citizen.  And then, get busy and shove. 

You are the Employers.  They are the Employees.  Make it count.
