International Public Notice: Memorandum to All Judicial Officers, Foreign and Domestic

 By Anna Von Reitz

We have published the information attached to the actions of His Britannic Majesty's Government in flagrant violation of their contracts and good faith service commitments, their presumptuous "salvage" activities on our shores, and the existence of an illegal mercenary occupation of our country since 1860. 

A rose by any other name may smell as sweet, but deliberate and self-interested actions in breach of trust, breach of service contract, and breach of international treaties based on semantic deceits and non-disclosure remain what they are. 

All public trust interest in individual named estates established in or attached to the fifty enrolled States of the Union and their underlying nation-states must be presumed to be fraudulently constructed and set aside; a presumption that such estates represent unencumbered private property assets belonging to American persons is established by this Memorandum. 

Any claim otherwise, to the effect that an individual defendant is a waived American estate, a British Subject, or citizen of the United States, must be validated and placed in public evidence prior to prosecution of any commercial claim or tort claim related to any franchise using the Given Name of a living being.

All territorial "States" have been properly enrolled as States of the Union since October 1st 2020, effective with the date they first entered territorial statehood.  The process established by the Northwest Ordinance was long delayed, but finally accomplished as of October 1st 2020 and the action resulting in the enrollment has been fully published and documented, internationally.  

The government of sovereign nation-states or any unincorporated federation or confederation thereof may stand recessed and may awaken upon being summoned without regard for the opinions or convenience of others. 

Individual Americans acting upon their individual right of self-determination further guaranteed equally by the federal Constitutions and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) have provided reasonable proof of identity and place of birth and declared and published their chosen political status as nationals of their traditional nation-states, have then also brought their State Assemblies into Session.  

They have assembled peaceably as guaranteed by both The Constitution of the United States of America and The Constitution of the United States, and have maintained their State Assemblies in General Session since 2019. 

These State Assemblies are not to be confused with District Assemblies or Municipal Assemblies.  These American State assemblies are properly provenanced and populated by natives of each nation-state: Californians, Wisconsinites, New Yorkers, and so on, who are not British Subjects and not otherwise accepting the status of citizens of the United States.  

The State Assemblies of these states organized prior to the Civil War acting in General Assembly and by roll call vote, unanimously agreed to enroll all territorial states that completed the process mandated by the Northwest Ordinance to become States of the Union, effective with the date these territorial entities entered territorial statehood.  

This housekeeping measure, delayed by more than a hundred years in some cases, was nonetheless properly done by those having the right and responsibility to do it, as of October 1st 2020, and these facts and actions were published and presented to the other Principals involved and the international community of nations at-large, and there was no objection otherwise.  

There remains a misunderstanding on the part of many members of the judiciary who assume that such an action must involve a huge public process and vote by a majority of the members of the public, without defining the form of government and identity of the public being referenced. 

The process of enrolling a new State of the Union was established by the four (4) organic laws that form the basis of the government of this country and does not require a plebiscite or majority vote, as this country is guaranteed a republican form of government and is not a democracy as popularly believed by many people who have not been taught their own history. 

The only democracies associated with this country are insular states, not nation-states.  

The same members of the judiciary who are stumbling over the lack of a need for a plebiscite to enroll former territorial states as States of the Union have also assumed the existence of a  "public" created by the "citizenry" of those who are employees, officers, or dependents of federal corporations, when in fact these entities are only "public" in the sense of their incorporation, and the persons employed by these corporations are foreign employees of the American People. 

The American States employ the United States of America, Incorporated, under The Constitution of the United States of America, which remains a foreign service corporation to this day; the population composed of foreign service workers employed by the USA, Inc. or the United States, Inc. or any other federal service provider, may form a citizenry, but not a public with respect to our country.  

By "public" we are referring to the nationals of the American nation-states, non-citizen nationals who have been born in this country and who naturally inhabit the States of the Union as Lawful Persons.  No other true public exists.    

We must remind everyone that the status and estate of nationality exists and is separate from any citizenry in this country, with each population inhabiting different political statuses and being owed different forms of law. 

The American state-nationals are owed the American Common Law provided by their own unincorporated county courts and State Courts.  

The British Subjects employed under contract are U.S. Citizens owed service from their state-of-state franchise courts and District Courts. 

The Holy Roman Empire slaves employed under contract are "citizens of the United States" and are owed service from their STATE-OF-STATE franchise COURTS known as Municipal and DISTRICT COURTS. 

All the American States enrolled as States of the Union as of October 1st 2020 have functional courts of record, international commercial courts, and courts competent to enforce the Public Law serving them.

These courts enjoy concurrent --- and where American state-nationals and their assets are concerned --- superior concurrent jurisdiction.  

All "persons" born on the land and soil of the States of the Union must be presumed to be inheritors and nationals of these States and the nation-states underlying them, not British Subjects or other foreign persons and not persons held as collateral for public debts --- that is, not "citizens of the United States".  

False legal presumptions of citizenship held against the non-citizen nationals of this country have been used to assert false claims in commercial venues and have resulted in illegal takings and confiscations prohibited by both The Constitution of the United States and The Constitution of the United States of America.

These same false presumptions of foreign citizenship obligations being held against living people who are non-citizens born on our land and soil have also resulted in and led to the securitization of living flesh -- which results in enslavement and peonage, both of which have been outlawed worldwide since 1926. 

Earlier generations of Bar Attorneys have been protected from criminal indictment for their participation in these activities as "legal privateers" acting under Letters of Marque issued by the Vatican, but those protections and pretensions ended in 2013. 

While Birth Certificates and Social Security Enrollments may be relied upon to establish birthplace and time, they cannot be relied upon to establish citizenship obligations which are merely being alleged and implied.  

In the same respect, being born in a Territorial State no longer implies territorial status or territorial citizenship obligations, as the State of the Union has been enrolled effective the same day as the Territorial State was created and those prior presumptions have been removed.   

We are exercising American Common Law on a concurrent and superseding basis in all States of the Union from October 1st 2020 onward.  Our courts do not presume indebtedness, citizenship obligations or guilt. 

Non-domestic courts and court officers operating within the borders of our nation-states are being provided with this notification and Memorandum which establishes their personal liability to perform their obligations under Article IV of all Federal Constitutions and refrain from misaddressing American nationals as British Subjects and/or as "citizens of the United States" based on obsolete legal presumptions and non-existent privateer licenses.  

This Memorandum serves as explicit notification of the changes necessary and the Facts and Law pertaining to the American Public. 

No jurist or court officer or officer of the court may ignore this Memorandum; anyone choosing to promote any continuance of the venal practices and misunderstandings addressed by this Memorandum such as seeking to latch onto American babies and establish unconscionable citizenship obligations for them as British Subjects, or otherwise mischaracterizing them as "citizens of the United States", and then misapplying foreign law and foreign debt obligations to these Americans, will be prosecuted as an accomplice to these crimes of state. 

This is also an opportunity to clearly distinguish between "Federal" officials and "Federation" officials.  

The unincorporated Federation of States (of the Union) known as The United States of America has its own roster of offices and authorities and is the Delegating Authority used by the States of the Union to delegate the eighteen specific "mutually held powers" -- all of them existing in international jurisdiction --  to the individual federal subcontractors created by and limited by the Federal Constitutions. 

Federation officials overstand their Federal counterparts. The Delegator always overstands the Delegatee.  The Employer overstands the Employee.  

And the creators always overstand all things they have created. 

This is the natural order of things and it is the order invoked and enforced by this Memorandum.  

There is no excuse for pretending that a federal municipal corporation using the Given Name of an American without their knowledge or permission "is the same as" the living man or woman. 

There is no excuse for pretending that millions of American Mothers voluntarily and knowingly subjected their children to the British Crown and allowed the British Crown to issue certificates against the value of the lifetime earnings of their children or knowingly allowed them to take other advantages, such as establishing a copyright on their baby's Given Name. 

These are illegal and immoral latching and salvage activities being carried out by commercial corporations and persons who are under contract to provide "essential government services" in "good faith" to the victims of these crimes of impersonation and identity theft.  

There is no excuse for pretending that these same Mothers voluntarily and knowingly waived the American estate owed to their children or ever intended to create an American "infant decedent estate" in the Given Name of their babies.  

This is all nothing but self-interested aggravated identity theft and constructive fraud being practiced by officers of the British Empire and officers of the Holy Roman Empire operating in Breach of Trust against Americans by members of the respective Bar Associations.  

This Memorandum demands immediate correction and compliance with the good faith service provisions of the Federal Constitutions by all federal and federal franchise employees and vendors. 

This Memorandum is issued by a Federation Officer and Justice of a Federation State Court which overstands all federal courts and federal franchise operations in international jurisdictions.

This Memorandum enforces 100% personal and commercial liability upon all domestic and non-domestic court officers operating within the physical borders of the States of the Union, which are not now and have never been party to any "civil war" and carry no presumptions of "rebellion" or "insurrection" whatsoever as a result.   

This Memorandum self-evidently includes but is not limited to those former Territorial "States" that were created between 1860 and 2020, and extends and attaches to any new corporate services vendors and franchises acting as would-be successors to contract. 

With respect to so-called "local" Municipal Corporation governments, we note that there is no provision for any Municipal Government to operate within the borders of the States of the Union and that compliance with the Constitution of the United States requires the immediate removal of the associated DISTRICT and MUNICIPAL COURTS, which are limited to operating within the City of Washington, District of Columbia. 

This is not a matter of musical corporations, in which a name change or change of management or change of registration or jurisdiction can provide an escape clause for judicial mischief; this Memorandum applies to all Judicial or Juridical Offices and Officers operating within the physical borders of any and all States of the Union.  

The very similarly named foreign estate(s) and public trusts created using the Given Names of American babies must be dissolved upon the appearance of the living American of the same or very similar name, and all judicial officers are morally, ethically, legally, and lawfully responsible for recognizing these American state nationals and discharging any debts of the similarly-named foreign corporations in favor of the living man or woman.  

Failure to yield to the living party of interest is a profound violation of actual Public Law and it cannot be legalized or excused by any Act of Legislation.

For those who are unclear on this necessary understanding, legislation results in statutes, codes, regulations, policies, covenants, ordinances, rules, mandates, and similar forms of "law" that pertain to the administration of corporations and the actions of corporation employees and dependents.

Law-making results in Law, which overstands all forms of legislation. 

For example, the Sherman Antitrust Act is a Federal Law pertaining to corporations and employees and shareholders and officers of corporations acting in those capacities, outlawing monopolies and conspiracies in restraint of trade.  This is a Public Law, read into the Congressional Record, and it results in "outlawry", not some lesser form of "administrative crime" created by legislation and enforced by in-house corporation tribunals dealing with their own internal affairs and employees. 

Good sense dictates that legislation cannot "legalize" crimes in violation of the Public Law; for example, a conspiracy to monopolize a commodity cannot be "legalized" by any act of legislation.  

Public Law is not overturned by the "private law" of any Law Society or organization of any kind, including banks and Boards of Governors.  

Your obligations as court officers are always first foremost to the Public Law, and only secondarily to any lesser form of "law" and only to the extent that such private "law" is in agreement with Public Law.

Example, no Act of Legislation can deny the right of free speech guaranteed to American state-nationals by the Supreme Law of the Land, simply by, at a whim, pretending that we are all "at sea" or "in the air jurisdiction" and invoking "judicial discretion"  in the face of our testimony and prior action denying foreign citizenship obligations. 

If it were otherwise, any corporation could create "laws" for itself, allowing itself to commit crimes without consequence.  We have witnessed successful attempts to bypass court officials who seem to think that they are not culpable for supporting this lawlessness and abuse.  

This is your notice and Memorandum reminding you that legislation does not replace Law and may not be misapplied to average Americans who claim their birthright status.  We repeat that legislation does not have any authority to overturn Public Law in this country.  Any court, foreign or domestic, operating within the physical borders of the States of the Union, is obligated to uphold the principles of Justice and the Public Law.  

All courts are obligated to provide remedy and relief owed to the American people, without appeals to "judicial discretion" or evasion practiced by failure to recognize the non-citizen status of Americans.  

The declared and intentful political status of an individual as a non-citizen national is not something within the purview of judicial discretion especially when the nation-state nationality is expressed and published in public records.  It is not granted to any foreign judicial officer to make determinations about individual citizenship or presumed foreign citizenship obligations when addressing American state-nationals.  

The existence of British Crown Copyrights and Birth Certificates and Social Security enrollment and similar evidence does not count in the face of contrary living testimony, because all such presumed contracts were and are undisclosed and continue to be exercised as unconscionable contracts.  

The United States, Incorporated, can support the formation of a central bank, but the commodity rigging and monopoly interest promoted by central banks remains Unlawful and against the Public Law.  

Their unlawful activities cannot be "licensed" or legalized by Acts of Legislation detrimental to the Public Law and all such Legislative Acts are null and void upon enactment.   

This is the actual Law.  

You, as Judicial Officers of any kind of court operating in this country, are responsible to and must honor the Public Law of this country, and you must recognize the presence and identity of the American state nationals who are being routinely misaddressed and presumed upon by your organizations. 

This is your responsibility.  This is on your Honor as individuals and as officers of the British Empire and as officers of the Holy Roman Empire, respectively.  Evading your treaties and service obligations owed to the American nation-states and the state nationals naturally inhabiting these independent and sovereign states is a criminal act.  Entertaining false claims in commerce against these Americans is a violation of international law -- both the underlying international treaties and the good faith service contracts known as constitutions.  

Mistaking Federation officers as Federal officers is another violation of international and national law that you are responsible for.  Our States of the Union have been at peace since the War of 1812; we fly our peacetime flag and properly identify ourselves so there should be no question or occasion for doubt about our identity and intent. 

The unincorporated American Federation of States is and has always been the actual Delegator of all delegated "mutual powers".  It should be no surprise to those receiving this delegation of powers that the Federation exists and is in fact the reason that your organizations are described as "federal" entities, "federal government", and "federal franchises".   

As an instrumentality of the free, sovereign, and independent nation-states, the Federation and its officers represent their States of the Union and enforce the Constitutions as international service contracts resulting from international treaties.  The United Kingdom and the United States and the Vatican are all parties to the Vienna Conventions and have cause to know what is expected of them in terms of their obligations to perform.  

As we write and publish this Memorandum in the best interests of all concerned, we declare that the Federation and its officers have been in continuous operation ever since 1860 and despite breaches of trust and violations of their service contracts, we have remained at peace with the British Crown and the Holy See as our federal service vendors and have sought peaceful correction of their operations and presumptions. 

As a Federation Officer charged with Fiduciary responsibility for the actual unincorporated Federation of States doing business as The United States of America, and as a Supreme Court Justice for the State of the Union known as Alaska, I do not allow any presumption that I am a Federal citizen or owe foreign citizenship obligations, that I am employed by any species of Federal Government corporation operating under any Federal Constitution, that I am in receipt of Federal income, responsible for Federal debt, or at "war" with anyone or any thing. 

I am a peaceable Wisconsinite claiming my birthright and identity as an American state national also known as a Lawful Person in international jurisdictions and as a State National generally.  I affirm from without the United States and the United States of America, Incorporated, and under the penalties of perjury brought under The United States of America and American Admiralty Law, that the information contained in this Memorandum addressed to all Judicial Officers is true, complete, and not misleading, intended to forestall crime and controversy, and meant to be received in the interests of peace and spirit of brotherhood. 

So said, so signed, so sealed this 20th day of June in the calendar years of 2026 and issued by:

International Public Declaration: Trusteeship of the D'Avila Family Trust

 By Anna Von Reitz

Recent actions by the other two trustees named by Demitrius Julius Shiva to control the assets of the D'Avila (sometimes shown as simply "Avila" ) Family Trust to "remove" me as a Trustee by majority vote (2 to 1) are grossly mistaken and must be corrected. 

No such "democratic" structure of the trusteeship was ever conceived of nor allowed by the heir and beneficiary.  

"Julius" -- as he always preferred his middle name -- knew the hierarchy of Nature and the Global Trust, and appointed his Trustees according to jurisdiction.  

I, Anna Maria Riezinger, am his designated Trustee in the jurisdiction of the land and soil, and am directly responsible for his physical estate assets in those jurisdictions.   All physical assets fall under my trusteeship and are not to be construed otherwise. 

Alan, a Brit, was appointed to oversee Admiralty and Maritime assets, but did not ever include or allow any Public Trust interest in actual assets contrived by the Crown.   

Harold, a Roman Catholic, was appointed to oversee interests in the Jurisdiction of the Air -- Holy Roman Empire assets more commonly conceived as Municipal corporation assets.  

Thus, these are separate spheres of operations functioning under different laws and with differing responsibilities to be honored by individuals, and are not rendered a "committee" or other combined structure that might be subject to votes among the trustees to divest one or the other.  

As all credit and corporation assets and other derivatives ultimately derive from the ownership of the physical assets of the trust, all assets ultimately belong to the asset owner.  I am the physical asset trustee and in the language of law, the "owner" and ultimate entitlement holder of the D'Avila Family Trust (also in English known as the Avila Family Trust).  

My position is superior to and in no way replaceable by the other two trustees who are limited to managing affairs in their own specific natural jurisdictions. 

The mismanagement and corruption has occurred in the Admiralty/Maritime and Air jurisdictions, while the Land and Soil operations have remained inviolate.  

This results in a situation in which the other two trustees have been responsible for legal actions and I have been responsible for lawful actions --  and also means that the responsibility for recoupment and correction of the accounts abused in their jurisdiction has rested on them.  

This may have given the appearance of dormancy on my part, or perhaps even incompetence, but the fact is that neither Alan nor Harold have any authority to do more than correction and legal claim actions and have no ability to "remove" me from my position by popular vote. 

The trusteeships are jurisdictional, not engrossed as a committee. 

For all those who have been misinformed on these scores, let it be known and fully understood. 

Any settlement or use impacting physical assets, their risk or expenditure, requires my approval. 

Furthermore, as credit is derived from and based upon physical assets, these forms also ultimately belong(ed) to the same beneficiary and heir and have no separate basis of their own apart from the physical assets giving them collateral value. 

Read that: all derivatives flow downhill from the physical asset base.  The other two trustees have responsibility and permission to recoup and correct in their respective jurisdictions, but may not encumber, redistribute, or distribute physical assets absent my authority to do so.   

The physical assets include, but are not limited to, the trust indenture itself. 

As a public notification of fact, I am not limited to this singular position of trust in an individual family trust, but also hold the Fiduciary duty with respect to all Estates/ESTATES belonging to declared Americans.  

Demitrius Julius Shiva declared his nationality as a South Carolinian prior to his death and he remains a South Carolinian now. 

In this respect also, all claims and correspondence regarding his physical estate are to be referred to my office.  There is no authority or nation-state interest in his estate otherwise. 

Please finally be advised, that the funding of the central banks provided by the physical assets of the Trust and the derivative funds since recouped as investment returns, are at issue.  

The original intention of the trust indenture, to put an end to "poverty and ignorance" are explicit and have stood on the public and private records for over 500 years, some middlemen (trustees and hired professional Metals Depositors and even bankers benefiting from the use of the physical assets of the trust) have sought to benefit themselves and by delay, sought to dishonor the clearly stated Will of the D'Avila family. 

The physical assets of this family trust were deployed to underwrite the central banks that are members of the Bank for International Settlements.  

The idea was that the central banks would fund the functions of government interest free and that the people would be freed from the burdens of infrastructure investment and taxation, opening up a new world in which intergenerational debt would no longer exist and increases in value (profit) would be distributed on an ongoing basis to benefit all nations. 

The trust assets were made available to underwrite the central banks with the understanding that they would be administered in accordance with prudent man standards and in honor of the trust indenture.  

Instead, the central banks contrived to steal the entrusted assets and to pervert the reassignment of derivative assets, a situation that has dishonored the trust indenture and subjected mankind to continuing poverty and ignorance while a guilty 1% have thrived in unearned luxury and garnered coercive power for themselves using trust funds intended to uplift the poor. 

As the American Fiduciary and as the Trustee named by the late Demetrius Julius Shiva to oversee physical assets of his Family Trust, I have required a complete accounting and the Federal District Court of Illinois has required a complete accounting in the Admiralty/Maritime and Municipal jurisdictions.  

All federal subcontractors, vendors, departments and agencies worldwide are ordered to comply and assist in the timely collection of the data and the securing of the assets of the D'Avila ( Avila in English) Family Trust and the return of the physical assets to the control of the appropriate trustee -- myself. 

So said, so signed, so sealed on this 16th day of June in the calendar year of 2026.

What Do Central Banks Know About Gold That You Don’t?

 https://youtu.be/u4nL0ZYGAOk

Central banks just bought another 244 tons of gold in Q1 2026 — even with gold sitting at all-time highs. In this video, GoldSilver breaks down the latest World Gold Council data, including who is buying, who is selling, why unreported buying still matters, and what this says about the growing loss of confidence in fiat currencies. If central banks keep accumulating gold regardless of price, investors should be paying attention.

Alex Jones Interview with Stewart Rhodes

Third Sunday After Pentecost

 Rev. Fr. Leonard Goffine's

The Church's Year

At the Introit of the Mass the Church calls upon all to invoke our Lord:

INTROIT Look Thou upon me, and have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am alone and poor. See my abjection and my labor, and forgive me all my sins, O my God. (Ps. XXIV.) To Thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul. In Thee, O my God, I put my trust, let me not be ashamed. Glory etc.

COLLECT O God, the protector of them that hope in Thee, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: multiply Thy mercy upon us, that, guided and directed by Thee, we may so pass amid temporal goods as not to lose the eternal. Through etc.

EPISTLE (I Pet: V. 6-11.) Dearly beloved, Be you humbled under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in the time of visitation: casting all your care upon him, for he hath care of you. Be sober and watch: because your adversary, the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about, seeking whom he may devour: whom resist ye, strong in faith: knowing that the same affliction befalls your brethren who are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you and confirm you and establish you. To him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.

EXPLANATION In this lesson St. Peter teaches that if we would be exalted we must humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God. This necessary humility shows itself in us by giving ourselves and all our cares up to the providence of God who, as St. Augustine says, provides for one as for all. We should not fail, however, to be sober and circumspect, and not think ourselves secure from the lusts of the world. The devil like a lion seeking prey, desires the ruin of our souls, tormenting us by temptations and afflictions. By confidence in God's help we can and should resist him, especially when we consider that after the trials of this life the crown of glory will be our portion for all eternity.

ON DRUNKENNESS
Be sober and watch. (I Peter, V. 8.)

Sobriety is the mother of vigilance; intemperance is the mother of sloth and of numberless other vices which cast many souls into the jaws of the devil who, like a hungry lion, goes about day and night seeking for prey. Woe, therefore, to those who because of their drunkenness live, as it were, in constant night and in the perpetual sleep of sin! How will they feel when, suddenly awakened by death, they find themselves before the judgment seat of God burdened with innumerable sins of which they were unconscious, or of which they wished not to know they were guilty! Who can number the sins committed in a state of intoxication, sins for which the drunkard cares nothing, for which he has no contrition, and has not confessed, because the light of reason is extinguished, his life is a senseless stupor, and he is therefore unconscious of his thoughts, words and actions.

But will the divine Judge find no sin in such persons? Will He permit the shameful deeds committed while intoxicated, the curses, blasphemies, sneers, detractions, outrages, and scandals to remain unpunished? He who demands an account of every idle word, will He demand no account of the time 'so badly spent, of the money so uselessly squandered, families neglected, church service unattended, education of children omitted, and the other great sins committed? They will indeed excuse themselves, pleading that these sins were committed involuntarily, or as a joke, when they were intoxicated; that their intoxication was excusable, as they were not able to stand muck; but will God be content with such excuses? Will they not add to their damnation? That they took more than they could bear of the intoxicating drink, deprived themselves of the use of reason, and thus voluntarily caused all the sins they committed while in that state, is what will be punished.

What then can they expect? Nothing less than the fate of the rich man spoken of in the gospel, who on account of his debaucheries was buried in hell; where during all eternity his parched tongue was not cooled by one drop of water. (Luke XVI. 22.) Yes, this will be the place of those unconverted drunkards of whom St. Paul says that they will not possess the kingdom of God. (I Cor. VI. 10.) How rare and how difficult is the conversion of a drunkard, because with him as with the unchaste this habit becomes a second nature, and because he generally abuses the remedies: the holy Sacraments of Penance and the. Altar.

This should certainly deter any one from the vice of drunkenness; but those who are not thus withheld, may consider the indecency, the disgrace, and the injury of this vice, for it ruins the body as well as the soul.

Is it not disgraceful that man endowed with reason, and created for heaven, should drown that reason in excessive drink, degrading his mind, his intellectual spirit, the image of God, rendering it like the brute animals, and even lower than the beasts. "Are not the drunkards far worse than the animals?" says St. Chrysostom. Yes, not only on account of their drunkenness, but far more so because of the shameful position of their body, their manners, their speech, their behavior. How disgracefully naked lay Noah, although he was intoxicated not through his own fault, exposed in his tent to the ridicule of the impudent Chain! (Gen. IX. 21.) Even the heathen Spartans considered the vice of drunkenness so disgraceful that they were in the habit of intoxicating a slave, and bringing him before their children that they might be disgusted with such a state.

Finally, that which should deter everybody from this vice is its injuriousness. It ruins the body as well as the soul. By surfeiting many have perished, (Ecclus. XXXVII. 34.) and it has ruined the health of many more. Who hath woe? whose father hath woe? who hath contentions? who fall into pits, who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? Surely they that pass their time in wine, and study to drink off their cups? (Prov. XXIII. 29. 30.) Daily observation confirms this truth of Scripture, and the miserable old age, accompanied by innumerable weaknesses and frailties of one addicted to drink is a sufficient testimony of the injuriousness of this vice.

GOSPEL (Luke XV. 1-10.) At that time, The publicans and sinners drew nigh unto Jesus to hear him. And the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them And he spoke to. them this parable, saying: What man of you that hath an hundred sheep, and if he shall lose one of them, Both he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, and go after that which was lost until he find it? Arid when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders rejoicing: and coming home, call, together his friends and neighbors, saying to them:

Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost? I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety nine just who need not penance. Or what woman having ten groats, if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it? And when she bath found it, call together her friends and neighbors, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat, which I had lost? So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance.

What moved the sinners to approach Jesus?

The goodness and benevolence with which He met the penitent sinners. Do you also humbly and trustingly approach Him, and you may rest assured that, even if you are the greatest of sinners, you will receive grace and forgiveness.

What is Christ's meaning in the parable of the lost sheep and groat?

He expresses by this His desire for the salvation of the sinner, His joy and that of all heaven when a sinner is converted. Moreover, He shows the Pharisees, who in vain self-righteousness avoided all intercourse with acknowledged sinners, and who murmured at the goodness of Jesus, that the sinner, being truly unhappy, deserves our compassion rather than our anger.

Why do the angels rejoice more over one sinner who does penance than over ninety-nine just?

Because the places of the fallen angels are thus refilled; because the angels see how the good God rejoices; because they find their prayers for the conversion of sinners granted, as St. Bernard says: "The tears of the penitents are wine for the angels;" because, as St. Gregory says, "the true penitents are usually more zealous than the innocent."

ASPIRATION I have erred like a sheep that has lost its way; but I thank Thee, O Jesus, my good Shepherd, that Thou hast so carefully sought me by Thy inspirations, admonitions and warnings, and dost now bring me back to true penance, that I may be a joy to the angels. Amen.

International Public Notice: Regarding "Second" Declaration of Independence

 By Anna Von Reitz

Any pretense of issuing a second Declaration of Independence pre-supposes that the first Declaration was somehow invalidated, or that different Parties are invoking a similar document --- and this is in fact the case with the Trump Administration's actions, because they are all acting in the guise of British Subjects rebelling against the Crown in a completely different status and jurisdiction than the original Declaration of Independence we issued in 1776.

Here is our response: 

If Brits want to declare their independence from the British Crown and King, they can do it on their own time and on their own turf --- if they have any -- and kindly respect the fact that Americans have already paid for their peace with Britain, already declared their independence, and have no reason to breach our peace with the British Crown.  

It would be fool-hardy for us to do so, because the British Crown has broken every law of good faith and international law and commerce, every treaty, every contract, every compact and convention; the criminals are already at "war" with the entire rest of the world. We have no interest in saving them or embroiling ourselves in a fight with them or for them.  

Let him who will be deceived, be deceived, but we know better. 

What we desire and demand is immediate withdrawal of our credit and an end to any presumption that American property assets have been voluntarily surrendered or placed in foreign public trusts. We are flying our peacetime flag and have not given our subcontractors any permission to use our wartime flag under our delegated power absent a declaration of war from our Congress -- not theirs.  

You may safely presume that any "Second" Declaration of Independence has been issued by British Crown Officers who are now, 250 years after the fact, in rebellion themselves and seeking freedom from the same atrocities and impositions our ancestors first identified as the result of the Romano-British Administrative System. 

Though we sympathize, we don't like paying for the same property twice. 

Those same Crown Officers are Crown Officers by their own choice and that choice can simply be released by stepping back into their native identity as American State Citizens and enforcing the treaties and service contracts we are all already owed by the King and by the Crown.  

Commander-in-Chief is a Naval Office.  It can be exercised as a Brit or as an American under American Admiralty.  If done as an American, this situation does not constitute a rebellion nor does it require any new declarations.  We can simply hold the Crown feet first to the fire and demand performance according to the treaties, contracts, and conventions we are already owed.  No other fisticuffs needed. 

We don't need and don't recognize any "Second" Declaration of Independence.  The controlling jurisdiction was and always has been the land and soil, which despite self-interested acts by the British Crown notwithstanding, has been continuously occupied from 1860 to today by the government of record. 

It is no secret that our government is vested in the people of this country and that we act internationally as the People, State Citizens of our individual nation-states.  We have been self-declared and self-determined under the Vienna Conventions, provided our provenance and published everything on the public record so there can be no doubt about who we are or in what capacity we are acting.  

If our subcontractors want their freedom, they already have it as Americans; if they want it as Brits or Israelis or any other nationality, we can certainly lend our insight into the problem and recommend solutions. 

A mandatory tongue-splint to prevent the Brits from lying and to force them to wag their heads "yes" and "no" seems like a practical deterrent.  

But a Third World War with America being beat up for the sake of the British Crown and King isn't appetizing to us, especially as we have been victimized, asset-stripped, impersonated, and defrauded by the same characters ourselves.  We are content to sit this one out and press our claims through our own international courts, instead. 

If worse comes to worse, we retain the option of voluntarily dismantling and absorbing the District of Columbia.  We can make it into a memorial park for all the people who have been murdered and injured by these criminally-inclined corporations masquerading as our government. 

We may also observe that all Central Banks are engaged in "legalized" crimes of commodity rigging and market manipulation, and that legalizing crime is a practical impossibility not vested in any government. 

Public Law of any country, including ours, supersedes any private law adopted by a corporation.  In international venues, the Federal Constitution stands above all other forms of law in this country. 

Any fuzzy-headed belief in oxymorons needs to be set aside. Any claim of judicial "discretion" relating to when and to whom the Constitution applies also needs to be set aside, along with any Congressional meddling with the Judicial Oath so as to make "judicial discretion" possible.  

All judicial decisions in all courts in this country must be "agreeable" to the Constitution, and if they are not, those judges are committing treason and so is the "Congress" that meddled with the judicial oath back in 1991.  

We will smile and be pleased if all British Subjects worldwide wake up.  They can use our Declaration as a template, but not to imply that we are going to war again to win an independence that is already owed to us.  We have other means of remedy at hand, and we are using those. 

Notice to agents is notice to principals; notice to principals is notice to agents. 

So said, so signed, so sealed.
