A horrendous switch

This is what has happened all over Europe and Canada and it is coming to the USA faster than you can imagine!

The following is a copy of an article written by Spanish writer Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez and published in a Spanish newspaper on Jan. 15. 2011. It doesn't take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest of Europe - and to the rest of the world.

THIS WAS IN A SPANISH NEWSPAPER:
"EUROPEAN LIFE DIED IN AUSCHWITZ "

By Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez

"I walked down the street in Barcelona and suddenly discovered a terrible truth - Europe died in Auschwitz ...We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, and talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world.

The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world.

These are the people we burned.

And under the pretence of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty, due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts.

And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition. We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.. A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves. Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in to it.

It is now more than sixty years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, twenty million Russians, ten million Christians, and nineteen-hundred Catholic priests who were 'murdered, raped, burned, starved, and beaten, experimented on and humiliated.' Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.

Texas-The newest Country

The Country of Texas ~ being that Texas is the only state with a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

We Texans love y'all, but we'll probably have to take action if Barack Obama wins the election. We'll miss you too.

Here is what can happen:

1: Barack Hussein Obama is President of the United States, and Texas secedes from the Union in summer of 2013.

2: George W. Bush will become the President of the Republic of Texas . You might not think that he talks too pretty, but we hadn't had another terrorist attack, and the economy was fine until the effects of the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans came to roost.
So what does Texas have to do to survive as a Republic?

1. NASA is just south of Houston , Texas . We will control the space industry.

2. We refine over 85% of the gasoline in the United States .

3. Defense Industry--we have over 65% of it. The term "Don't mess with Texas," will take on a whole new meaning.

4. Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of Texas will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we don't know. Why not ask Obama?

5. Natural Gas - again we have all we need, and it's too bad about those Northern States. John Kerry and Al Gore will have to figure out a way to keep them warm....

6. Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment -small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor,Motorola, Intel, AMD, Atmel, Applied Materials, Ball Microconductor, Dallas Semiconductor, Nortel, Alcatel, etc, etc. The list goes on and on.

7. Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world, as well as other large health centers. The Houston Medical Center alone employees over 65,000 people.

8. We have enough colleges to keep us getting smarter: University of
Texas , Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Texas Christian, Rice, SMU, University
of Dallas , University of Houston , Baylor, UNT ( University of North
Texas ), Texas Women's University, etc. Ivy grows better in the South anyway. 
9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force, and it isn't restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in Texas , it's a Right toWork State and, therefore, it's every man and women for themselves. We just go out and get the job done. And if we don't like the way one company operates, we get a job somewhere else.

10. We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance industries, etc.

11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the Texas National Guard, the Texas Air National Guard, and several military bases. We don't have an Army, but since everybody down here has at least six rifles and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need one. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers. 
12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and several types of grain, fruit and vegetables, and let's not forget seafood from the Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook them so that they taste good. Don't need any food.

13. Three of the ten largest cities in the United States , and twenty- three of the 100 largest cities in the United States , are located inTexas. And Texas also has more land than California , New York , New Jersey , Connecticut , Delaware , Hawaii , Massachusetts , Maryland , Rhode Island and Vermont combined.

14. Trade: Three of the ten largest ports in the United States are located in Texas .

15. We also manufacture cars down here, but we don't need to. You see, nothing rusts in 
Texas, so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well for decades.

This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of Texas in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't have.

Now to the rest of the United States under President Obama: Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 5 mpg SUV.The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite communications. You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since Mr. Obama has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming. 

Signed,
The People of Texas

P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you something to think about!

SLEEP WELL TONIGHT - THE EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON YOU!!

Why the Greatest Wealth Migration in U.S. History Has Begun

Democrats, unions and wall st. occupiers all have one thing in common: NONE OF THEM CAN SEE THE WRITING ON THE WALL! They treat the hard working, American dream following, so called rich like criminals! All I hear is how the rich need to pay their fair share. The so called rich are ALREADY pay ALL the tax. Dems want them to pay more! 

What is "fair" about that? With 50% of Americans paying NO Fed tax and collecting some form of government assistance, maybe THEY should pay something or shut up. You shouldn't be allowed to say anything or even vote Federally without some skin in the game! 

Closing tax loopholes will effect YOU much more than the wealthy and without corporate welfare, companies will leave...and they are. After all, these tax loopholes are just giving you back SOME of the money you have already paid. If you write off your mortgage, that is a loophole, if you get an Income tax return, that is a loophole! This is why a FLAT TAX will never pass, like Cain's 9-9-9 tax. When the 50% of people screaming at the rich to pay more, they want to be EXCLUDED from those very same loopholes. 

I think ALL tax shelters and loopholes should be closed. I think that welfare checks should be taxed just like unemployment and social security checks are. As for the latter two, you have ALREADY paid tax on that money! How fair is that? With that said, rich people, companies and employees that pay the bulk of all taxes have had enough and are leaving. The government is now facing bigger bills on a shrinking tax base, meaning they are bringing in much less money. The result is higher taxes on EVERYONE left combined with massive cuts in social programs. Also known as "austerity" it is the end of socialism. If we don't do something drastic quickly, we will become the biggest 3rd world country on the planet! WE will be the topics of future National Geographics and on the History Channel under "How was this allowed to happen"? 

Leaving has become so commonplace that there are now many books available on just how to do it LEGALLY! Read this report folks:

Five Strategies to Maximize
the Best Offshore Has to Offer

More than two decades ago, an interesting character with the nom de plume, “Bill Hill” wrote a popular escape manual for freedom advocates titled “PT—The Perpetual Traveler.”

Hill outlined his PT ideas with a five point plan “...for those,” he said, “with courage enough to pursue freedom.” He memorably illustrated his plan with something he called The Five Flags of Freedom.

Hill wrote: “People of intelligence and wealth owe it to themselves and their descendants to have more than one flag. No one with common sense should give all their assets or allegiance to just one.”

Confiscatory income taxes and suffocating government regulations have caused many independent-minded Americans and their European counterparts to seek new flags.

They are discovering that, as business owners, expatriates or tax exiles abroad, they need not belong to any particular country nor participate in its senseless policies and politics.

An individual’s relationship with government should be a matter of choice, an option. The passport you hold and the country where you live or were born need not determine your fate forever...

Why the Greatest Wealth Migration
in U.S. History Has Begun

Today, millions of the wealthiest and most productive Americans are leaving home to relocate various aspects of their lives in the best possible places.

They view governments as providers of facilities and services, like hotel keepers. If they offer good accommodation and make you feel comfortable and prosperous, you stay. If your government becomes too demanding or too nosey, or if a competitor offers a better deal, you can move on.

A few years ago, U.S. News & World Report confirmed, “A wave of native born citizens are going abroad in search of new challenges, opportunities, and more congenial ways of life.”

Some are seeking full-time residences... others find part-time tropical vacation homes where they can live like kings for $20,000 a year... while some move their businesses to slash their taxes.

No one government can or even should be trusted to control all your money. Experience shows us that government does not have your best interests at heart. Americans have learned with a vengeance how much politicians love to redistribute other’s wealth. In the end, they also will succeed in redistributing taxpayers. The major portion of all liquid private wealth, the smart money, already should have been moved offshore. As Bill Hill would say, it has been “re flagged.”

And these days, it’s not just the wealthy jumping ship. Every day, middle-class folks are re-flagging themselves to get the government they want and to gain access to economic opportunities that no longer exist in America.

Individuals can remove themselves from the control and jurisdiction of any government by acquiring dual citizenship, investing internationally and becoming human multinationals.

In order to accomplish this you have to arrange your assets according to the following simple outline:

Your Five Flags: A Strategy to Live as
Close to Government-Free as Possible

Flag 1: Second Passport and Citizenship: You should obtain citizenship and a second passport from a country that does not tax non-residents on their worldwide income. The U.S. taxes its citizens without regard to where they live in the world. Your second passport should be issued by a country that is unconcerned about its offshore citizens and their outside activities. It can act as the ultimate insurance policy during times of war, persecution and political upheaval.

Flag 2: Business Base: You need a place in which you can form a corporation or limited liability company and invest and earn money with minimal restrictions. This should not be where you legally reside, thus it excludes your personal fiscal domicile. Some countries grant free land, interest free loans or tax holidays to promote new local business and jobs with minimal regulation. Such places include the Cook Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, Uruguay and Panama. 

Flag 3: Residence and Domicile: Obviously, the best place to live is where you’re happy. But as a practical matter it also should be a place with a territorial tax system that does not tax outside income. You should live in a tax haven with good infrastructure and communication systems where wealthy, productive people can be creative, live, relax, prosper and enjoy themselves, preferably with maximum bank privacy and a stable government. Panama, Monaco, Andorra, Singapore, Hong Kong, Liechtenstein, Austria and Switzerland should be considered.

Flag 4: Asset Management: In spite of all the negative publicity, Switzerland remains the world’s best place from which assets, securities and business affairs can be managed by proxy. It is one of the best for an offshore bank account, life insurance and annuities. The Swiss have highly competent independent financial managers, and there is little or no taxation of non residents or non citizens. Other possibilities include Austria, Luxembourg, Denmark, Liechtenstein and Hong Kong.

Flag 5: Playgrounds: These are places where you physically spend time, where quality of life is a top priority. Normally, because of legal restrictions on how long one can stay without being considered a resident for tax purposes, it is necessary to have several such places, although, depending on the place, legal and political deals usually can be made if you want to stay in one place. But for tax purposes, one should avoid spending more than 90 days per year in any one country. Factors here are matters of personal choice: climate, seasons, geography, leisure activities, culture, history, security and prices.

Stay Away from “Home”
To Maximize the Benefits

One point to remember: governments only have power and jurisdiction over their citizens when they are within their home territory or colonies. For this reason, one generally should stay out of the country on whose passport one travels. Your major financial assets should be invisible and far away from the country in which you actually make your home. And keep your lifestyle as unremarkable and humble as possible, never flamboyant and attention-getting.

By using the Five Flag strategy, you too can get the most out of life. Once you have your new second passport and money enough to survive comfortably at your chosen destination, security is yours.

IRS-Obama Idiocy Harms Innocent Americans

IRS-Obama Idiocy Harms Innocent Americans

George Washington, the first president of the United States, is said to have exclaimed: “Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.”

No better example of unreasonable use of official government force exists today than the policies of the Internal Revenue Service, aided and abetted by President Obama and the Democrat controlled Congress that enacted the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).

Amy Feldman, a columnist for Reuters, exposed on December 8 a current example of this unreasonable force.

She wrote: “The Internal Revenue Service's crackdown on overseas tax cheats is having an unintended consequence on American expats... [forcing] them to pay penalties for failure to file paperwork that may be drastically out of proportion to the actual amount of taxes owed.”

Intended Consequences?

It might be some small comfort if these were stupid, unthinking IRS-Obama policies. But in my opinion, these are policies calculated to keep Americans investors - along with their cash and assets - at home, where they can be controlled (and their assets confiscated) at will by government.

That threat includes the possible confiscation of private pension and retirement plans.

These policies have imposed unjust penalties on thousands of innocent American expatriates suddenly caught in a new jungle of paperwork they had no idea existed. That’s one consequence.

I wrote about another consequence a few days ago when I noted that: “Growing numbers of Americans living abroad are renouncing their U.S. citizenship because of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) - not to mention the ever more burdensome and complex IRS reporting obligations that now come with the treat of financial and even criminal penalties.”

Our friend and associate Richard W. Rahn writes in the Washington Postthat FATCA has already sent foreign capital fleeing.

He claims that the people running Washington are "mental midgets" unaware of how their policies impact on the economy.

He estimates that FATCA will cause the departure of an estimated $14 trillion of private foreign investment, destroying as many as 10 million American jobs.

Yet another consequence, equally serious, is the decision of untold numbers of foreign banks and investors to avoid doing business with Americans because of the trouble of compliance with FATCA.

This also has made it difficult, if not impossible, for U.S. citizens living abroad to maintain existing bank accounts or open new accounts both in U.S. and in their countries of residence. This impedes American companies and their employees in badly needed foreign business and trade.

The Americans who are being subjected to this unjust IRS-Obama persecution are real people like you and me - U.S. citizens married to foreigners who left the U.S. decades ago, retirees whose lives spanned multiple countries, dual-taxpayers trying to do their U.S. taxes themselves in foreign places, where accountants that know U.S. tax laws are few.

• Marvin Van Horn, a 62-year-old U.S. citizen and permanent resident of New Zealand, semi-retired, bought a home there with his Australian wife a decade ago. When he learned about the new IRS reporting rules, he followed them and paid a small tax he owed but the penalty for failing to file the foreign bank account reporting form (FBAR) was $90,000. 

• When the IRS agent learned he had rented his house and not reported that income the penalty spiraled to $172,000. After negotiations with IRS's Taxpayer Advocate Service, the result was a single "non-willful" failure to file FBAR penalty of $5,000 per year, or $25,000 total.

There are an estimated five to six million Americans living offshore and another 39 million immigrants in the U.S. who face similar IRS issues with overseas disclosure if they have foreign bank accounts back home.

Yet in 2009 there were only 534,043 FBARs filed, according to a report by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration.

Indeed, many Americans abroad inherited foreign assets from foreign-born parents and relatives or they have simply lived abroad for years ignorant of FBAR requirements.

All of this IRS-Obama induced tyranny involves mainly U.S. citizens, but the new rules have ensnared thousands of Canadians, many of whom were not only ignorant of IRS rules, but of the fact that they were U.S. dual citizens.

One 54-year-old Canadian, who was born in Canada and has only worked in Canada, recently discovered that she’s a dual citizen for tax purposes because her mother, then a U.S. citizen, registered her with the U.S. embassy at birth. She faces a $75,000 penalty.

Jack Townsend, a Houston tax attorney, who writes on these issues in his Federal Tax Crimes blog, said: “The people who made out well are the real crooks who have been doing this for years, while the people who don't have that culpability are getting hammered because of the one-size-fits-all rule.”

I have no sympathy for Americans who cheat on their taxes. Illegal tax evaders should be caught and penalized. But stupid, harmful rules should be repealed immediately to take into account innocent mistakes.

Honest, taxpaying Americans and others who desire real financial privacy, true asset protection and expert investment advice should continue to employ offshore banks, investment advisers, insurance and annuity specialists - and not be scared away by the IRS from the very real benefits offered by the world's leading offshore financial centers with which the Sovereign Society works.

We will help you go offshore with full legality and tax compliance - the IRS be damned.

The actual LAWS broken by E. Holder & the DOJ-ATF

The reason many people are just fed up with the way everyone from Bankers to Congress, the Senate and higher is that there is NEVER any consequences for their actions. Anyone of us in the private sector would be in jail for breaking the laws these very same politicians write, yet seem to be immune from themselves. They are LITERALLY above the very laws they use to keep US in order. From insider trading to Tax evasion and everything in between.

I am going to show you a letter from a retired congressman [James R Lightfoot Member of Congress, ret. (1984 – 1996)] to Presidential Candidate Hon. Thaddeus McCotter that explains some of what has and is going wrong and the LAWS that have been broken. You can then come to your OWN conclusions on whether some of them should go to jail over this so called "Fast & Furious" gun running debacle that has directly cost the lives of at least 2 dedicated Americans doing their job in protecting this country! 

My Blog is titled the things your Government DOESN'T want you to know and this is the epitome of what I am talking about as you will NOT see this in ANY media, including FOX News. With that being said, please read the following in its unabridged entirety, and let me know what YOUR thoughts on it are:

Hon. Thaddeus McCotter                                  
2243 Rayburn HOB
Washington, DC 20515


Congressman McCotter:
I am writing to you as a private citizen and a resident of Texas. My background includes being a police office, broadcaster, business owner and Member of Congress.


Three times I have raised my right hand and taken an oath to protect and uphold our Constitution and country; once in the Army, once at the Tulsa Police Academy and once on the floor of the US House of Representatives. Today, I am standing up once again, however, I need your help.


You have called for the resignation of Attorney General Eric Holder. I applaud you for your stand, however, I would like to see you take it one step further.
Please find attached (below) some of the laws that have been broken by Fast and Furious.


Please encourage Congressman Issa and Senator Grassley to not give up when they find a few of the culpable, rather they must push forward with the power of the committee and the US Congress to uncover all that is amiss in this entire operation.
I had the privilege to serve as ranking member and then Chairman of the old Treasury, Postal and General Government (TPS) sub-committee on Appropriations. Rebuilding ATF after Waco came under my watch. I have continued to be associated with law enforcement and ATF since leaving Congress and I can assure you that agency is badly broken.


The level of retaliation and harassment that is fostered upon good agents in the field is a disgrace and in many cases unlawful. However, a good-old-boy system that includes the lawyers at ATF continue the mistreatment, the law suits and general harassment of agents that want to do their jobs by the book, be honest and put bad guys in jail.
Many good agents have already left ATF and others are ready to go.


Recently, I had the honor to attend a memorial for murdered Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. It was a humbling experience, but offered an opportunity to talk at length with Border Patrol Agents, ATF Agents and local law enforcement. They are living in a war zone and I came away with the determination to try and do something to make things better for them. They certainly are not getting the support and help they need from our DOJ. They cannot speak up for fear of retaliation.
I can.


Congressman, you are in a position to right the wrongs that the whistleblowers and other goods agents have had to suffer. I urge you to please work for a Special Counsel or whatever it takes to get the evidence dug out of ATF, DOJ, DEA, FBI and any other bad player involved with the disgrace and travesty we are now witnessing.


Tuesday Roll Call is scheduled to print an op-ed I wrote asking for the indictment of Eric Holder, William Newell, William McMahon and anyone else that has played a role in the execution of Fast and Furious.
As a former soldier, police officer, Member of Congress and now a private citizen I urge you to continue your interest in bringing justice to those adversely effected by Fast and Furious and would support your efforts to seek indictment in any way I can.
Respectfully,












Member of Congress (ret)
James R Lightfoot
Member of Congress, ret.
(1984 – 1996)

Potential unlawful acts by ATF Agents related to Operation Fast and Furious

Keep in mind, NONE of this relates to potential STATE violations, such as negligent homicide, or some other reckless conduct statutes. Even if the Feds stepped in and snatched the state prosecutions into federal court as the law allows, they would still have to prosecute or answer why not.
Items in blue are referenced to the observation in red at the end of each paragraph.

18 U.S.C. § 922 : US Code - Section 922: Unlawful acts

(a) It shall be unlawful -
(1) for any person -
(A) except a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or
licensed dealer, to engage in the business of importing,
manufacturing, or dealing in firearms, or in the course of such
business to ship, transport, or receive any firearm in
interstate or foreign commerce; or


ATF and DOJ Attorneys clearly were engaged or conspiring to engage in the business
(B) except a licensed importer or licensed manufacturer, to
engage in the business of importing or manufacturing
ammunition, or in the course of such business, to ship,
transport, or receive any ammunition in interstate or foreign
commerce;


ATF and DOJ Attorneys ordered and directed this as well
(6) for any person in connection with the acquisition or
attempted acquisition of any firearm or ammunition from a
licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or
licensed collector, knowingly to make any false or fictitious
oral or written statement or to furnish or exhibit any false,
fictitious, or misrepresented identification, intended or likely
to deceive such importer, manufacturer, dealer, or collector with
respect to any fact material to the lawfulness of the sale or
other disposition of such firearm or ammunition under the
provisions of this chapter;


ATF Bosses, Agents and DOJ Attorneys did exactly this on multiple occasions. In order for some cop exemption to apply, They had to reasonably intend to disrupt and stop criminal activity. IE give some sample drugs to a kingpin to set him up for a large reverse. You cannot constantly provide an unending supply of drugs and just say “hey, we are working toward an arrest someday.”
(2) any firearm to any person in any State where the purchase
or possession by such person of such firearm would be in
violation of any State law or any published ordinance applicable
at the place of sale, delivery or other disposition, unless the
licensee knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the
purchase or possession would not be in violation of such State
law or such published ordinance;

Mexico is a state and this WAS in violation of published Mexican law or ordinance. ATF and DOJ Attorneys directed and conspired this to happen.
(h) It shall be unlawful for any individual,  who to that individual’s knowledge and while being employed for any person described in any paragraph of subsection (g) of this section, in the course of such employment -
(1) to receive, possess, or transport any firearm or ammunition
in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce; or
(2) to receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.


Illegal aliens, illegal users of narcotics and felons were employing these straw purchasers and ATF and DOJ attorneys DID conspire to violate this “the bodyguard” statute to be violated.
(m) It shall be unlawful for any licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector knowingly to make any false entry in, to fail to make appropriate entry in, orto fail to properly maintain, any record which he is required to keep pursuant to section 923 of this chapter or regulations promulgated thereunder.


Occurred with each and every straw purchase, directed, facilitated or allowed by ATF and DOJ Attorneys. There are emails telling the FFL it is ok to break the law.
18 U.S.C. 371, CONSPIRACY
outlaws conspiracy to commit any other federal crime. The others outlaw conspiracy to commit some specific form of misconduct, ranging from civil rights violations to drug trafficking.7 Conspiracy is a separate offense under most of these statutes,8 regardless of whether conspiracy accomplishes its objective.9 every conspiracy has at least two elements: (1) an agreement (2)  between two or more persons. Members of the conspiracy are also liable for the foreseeable crimes of their fellows committed in furtherance of the common plot.
There are no one-man conspiracies.31
Conviction under 18 U.S.C. 371 for conspiracy to commit a substantive offense requires proof
that one of the conspirators committed an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy.


You can commit a conspiracy with an unindicted co-conspirator. It appears this is the one that will kill them in relation to very act the cartel/straw purchasers committed, including murder. In order to avoid this, they have to admit they are acting under color of law for ANY Law Enforcement protections. SEE ABOVE, the problem with that is that acting under color of law requires you are within the scope of your duties and advancing legitimate law enforcement actions.
The elements of conspiracy to defraud the United States under 18 U.S.C. 371 are (1) an agreement of two or more persons; (2) to defraud the United States; and (3) an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy committed by one of the conspirators.65 The “fraud covered by the statute reaches any conspiracy for the purpose of impairing, obstructing or defeating the lawful functions of any department of the Government” by ” deceit, craft or trickery, or at least by means that are dishonest.“67 The plot must be directed against the United States or some federal entity; a scheme to defraud the recipient of federal funds is not sufficient. The scheme may be designed to deprive the United States of money or property, but it need not be so; a plot calculated to frustrate the functions of an entity of the United States will suffice.


Based on overt direction by ATF and DOJ Attorneys the above should be a slam dunk. You’ll notice this is a willful NOT a knowing act. In other words, they meant to do it. They didn’t need to know all the ins and outs.


Mail and wire fraud is a federal crime in the United States. Together, 18 U.S.C. §§1341, 1343, and 1346 reach any fraudulent scheme or artifice to intentionally deprive another of property or honest services with a nexus to mail or wire communication.
18 U.S.C.§ 1341provides:


Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, or to sell, dispose of, loan, exchange, alter, give away, distribute, supply, or furnish or procure for unlawful use any counterfeit or spurious coin, obligation, security, or other article, or anything represented to be or intimated or held out to be such counterfeit or spurious article, for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, places in any post office or authorized depository for mail matter, any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by the Postal Service, or deposits or causes to be deposited any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by any private or commercial interstate carrier, or takes or receives therefrom, any such matter or thing, or knowingly causes to be delivered by mail or such carrier according to the direction thereon, or at the place at which it is directed to be delivered by the person to whom it is addressed, any such matter or thing, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both. 


If the violation occurs in relation to, or involving any benefit authorized, transported, transmitted, transferred, disbursed, or paid in connection with, a presidentially declared major disaster or emergency (as those terms are defined in section 102 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5122)), or affects a financial institution, such person shall be fined not more than $1,000,000 or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.^[2]


All Federal funding used in any case has been reported, transferred, accounted for through the U S Mail at some point. Clearly whatever was stated by the agents, bosses or U S Attorney justifying the expenditures was fraudulent.

Wire

18 U.S.C. §1343 provides:
Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both. If the violation affects a financial institution, such person shall be fined not more than $1,000,000 or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.^[3]


Huge wire fraud implications resulting from EVERY email, fax, Teletype that occurred with the intent to mislead the true actions of Fast and Furious.
42 U.S.C.§ 1983 now reads:^[3]
Every person who under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, Suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia.


To be clear, Brian Terry, Jaime Zapata and every other cop and civilian harmed by a Fast and Furious gun has been deprived of their constitutional civil rights at the hands of ATF and DOJ Attorneys under the color of law. Example: An agent walks high-grade heroin with no safe guards, and no specific greater law enforcement future good that he/she can articulate, and someone’s kid overdoses because of it, BINGO, same deal as Fast and Furious.


The Supreme Court has interpreted the United States Constitution to construct laws regulating the actions of the law enforcement community. Under “color of law”, it is a crime for one or more persons using power given to him or her by a governmental agency (local, state or federal), to willfully deprive or conspire to deprive another person of any right protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. Enforcement of “color of law” does not require that any racial, religious, or other discriminatory motive existed. Criminal acts under color of law include acts within and beyond the bounds or limits of lawful authority.

How Stupid are American Voters?

Well this should come as NO surprise to anyone! The last bastion of unionism has no choice but to endorse our communist in chief as they have pissed off just about EVERY non-union American out there under obama and his out of control left wingnut NLRB crew! Check this out by fellow blogger Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh:

As I read the memorandum in front of me, I am amazed how blind Americans are, how naïve, ignorant, credulous, and unable to discern fact from fiction, reality from fantasy. How much more proof do they need before they realize our country is on the path of purposeful destruction?

Service Employees International Union (SEIU), with its 2.1 million dues paying members had announced on November 16, 2011, “with great pride and a sense of purpose,” that they were endorsing President Barack Obama for re-election.

“President Obama is the only candidate for president who shares our vision of America as a land of opportunity for everyone. We need a leader willing to fight for the needs of the 99 percent, and stand with hard working families to say that the world’s wealthiest corporations must pay their fair share.”

Is this the vision of socialist America where almost 50 percent of citizens already pay no federal income tax and receive welfare from the producers? Is this the vision where pot-smoking youth occupy our parks demanding handouts while preaching Marxism?

Is this the vision of America where working Americans support millions of illegal aliens who take advantage of our lax law enforcement when foreigners cross the border illegally, drop anchor babies, use our emergency rooms for medical care, our schools and universities for educating their children, and take jobs from American citizens?

Our leader does not fight for the needs of all Americans. His needs, golfing, vacationing, entertaining lavishly at taxpayer expense, or his favorite hobby, non-stop campaigning, come first. He punishes companies that are not supporting his plan for America and rewards companies who have contributed heavily to his campaign coffers.

Congressman Frank Wolf remarked on the floor of the House on November 16, 2011, “General Electric, the nation’s largest corporation, had a very good year in 2010 but GE paid zero taxes in 2010. At the same time, the Congressional Research Service found that the October 2008 issue of China Taxation magazine published top corporate taxpayers in the commercial services sector. The Beijing subsidiary of GE was number 32.”

The 99 percent have been overlooked by the head of President Obama’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, GE chairman, Jeffrey Immelt, who announced recently that the headquarters of its 115-year old X-ray business would be moved from Wisconsin to Beijing.

Fifty percent of GE’s workforce is overseas. A joint venture between GE and the Chinese firm AVIC was announced to develop avionics systems for jets. If the president cared so much for the 99 percent, would he not make sure jobs would be created here and repatriated from China?

Is it a good idea to provide the PLA with advanced avionics technology at a time when the Chinese are developing aeronautics and space exploration programs? Is this not a national security issue?

The SEIU memo continues, “Our economy and democracy have been taken over by the wealthiest one percent.” The truth is, wealthy individuals are being threatened and blackmailed by the left on a daily basis.  Our country has been taken over by Marxists and anti-American individuals who wish nothing but the failure and de-development of America from a super-power to a third world nation.

The SEIU memo to its members says, “These bankers and CEOs have used their wealth and excessive political influence to treat our state and federal governments like their personal cash drawer – spending lavishly on elections and then pressuring legislators to give them even more instead of creating jobs. It shows the results.”

Was it not unions that spent hundreds of millions of dollars to elect Democrats to Congress and President Obama in order to influence the outcome of legislation favoring and benefiting unions?

Was it not ACORN protesting outside the homes of bankers and CEOs with the intent of shaming them into giving mortgage loans to people with shady credit scores? Were certain Congresspersons not urging bankers to make these loans? Did this move not exacerbate the housing bubble crisis?

Corporations are not creating jobs because they are overregulated, EPA is denying permits, business confidence under this administration is at its lowest, and corporations are afraid to hire because of the uncertainty of taxation and the foreseen high cost of Obamacare per employee.

SEIU’s president says, “We know there needs to be a pathway to citizenship for every immigrant worker.” The left now calls illegal aliens “immigrant workers,” last year it was “undocumented workers.” No matter how they spin it, the left wants amnesty for illegal aliens because they want new cardholders paying dues to unions and new automatic Democrat voters. It does not matter to liberals that the majority of Americans do not want amnesty.

Our President has had three years, a few billion dollars job stimuli, and many opportunities to create jobs. It never was his intent to create jobs – he likes people being dependent on the government dole. People who cannot find jobs, especially young people with college degrees, have nobody to blame but themselves for choosing perennial poverty by voting for Obama in 2008 and by choosing unmarketable degrees.

Mr. Obama has presided over the largest spending spree in the history of the U.S., out of control debt that threatens our national security. Aided by both Republicans and Democrats in Congress who are unwilling to set a debt ceiling, he will not stop spending until we have reached an insurmountable debt that many future generations will not be able to repay. It is like giving a child total control of the candy jar.

“We know that health care, elder care and other vital services must be available for all our families,” says the SEIU President in her letter, which solicits $10 in re-election campaign donations. 

We already have the best and most generous health care system in the world available for all families, including illegal alien ones. Nobody is refused medical care in our emergency rooms. Foreign nationals come to America legally for medical treatment because we have the best-trained and brightest physicians in the world and the fastest service.

Insurance issues across state lines should have been addressed first and the fraud within the healthcare system. Instead, Obamacare increased the cost of healthcare and health insurance. In order to offer everything to everybody as falsely promised, rationing and death panels had been introduced in the massive bill that we had to “pass first in order to know what’s in it.” 

This one bill will add trillions of dollars to our future national debt.

“President Obama is looking to turn things around, but he needs help from all of us to be heard over his wealthy opponents, people who seem to believe that the only thing wrong with the economy is that they have to share it,” says SEIU President Mary Kay Henry.

People have heard President Obama loud and clear. No matter how many times he repeats his canned rhetoric, none of his plans, schemes, bailouts, stimuli have worked, none of them. He cannot turn things around because he does not know how. Furthermore, he has no intention of doing so.

Mr. Obama is a wealthy man himself, much wealthier than he was when he took office.  He knows that wealthy people cannot and do not keep all wealth for themselves, they spend it and reinvest it in order to create more wealth. In the process, they create jobs and elevate the economic status of many Americans.

Although we cannot blame all the economic problems on President Obama’s leadership and his failed policies, he is the captain of the ship of state.

Pandering to economic dolts and people who are asleep is a very stealthy tool to manipulate the masses into automatic donor compliance and SEIU has a large membership.

SEIU President continues in her letter, “Just last month, congressional supporters of the one percent blocked President Obama’s latest job proposals. They claimed that we could not afford to invest in creating jobs in the United States and then suggested another round of tax cuts for wealthy corporations and the one percent. I have a word for that: “ridiculous.”

Jobs were indeed created by this administration in the past three years with American taxpayer dollars – in China, Finland, Mexico, and Brazil.

Past economic history has proven that every time taxes were cut, government revenue increased, and small corporations, most of which have a capital of $100,000, created jobs. We only have 500 or so large corporations. If we confiscated everything corporations own and their profits, it could only offset our huge national debt for a short period of time while the greedy spending in Washington would continue.

It is incomprehensible that people are unable to see through the disingenuous statements made in this SEIU call to action memo to re-elect Obama President. The seemingly small $10 donation will be their economic demise. Fighting and knocking door-to-door to re-elect a losing president assures a bleak future for the so-called 99 percenters. If he is re-elected, the economy will take an irreversible slide into bankruptcy. We will become the banana republic he planned to “fundamentally transform” us into all along.

Why we MUST kill Political Correctness

I came across this very well put together article on Political Correctness [PC], its roots and how it will lead to the demise of our society as we know it. It will take a good reader 5 minutes, yet you will come away with a better knowledge of its sinister undermining of what we all hold sacred, our liberties and freedoms as well as our Constitution! 

Kelly O'Connell has given this a lot of thought and study putting this together and kudos to him as he has done a brilliant job! Notice the differences in definitions depending on the sources!

The West will either reject the logic of Political Correctness or suffer a catastrophic failure of vision, will, power and influence, destroying civil society as we know it. This may sound drastic, and of course it is. But why is it being claimed here? Because the ideas in the doctrines of Political Correctness and related notions like Multiculturalism are so destructive that—much like magma—these cannot long be held safely before spilling over and causing tremendous damage, chaos and destruction of our society.

The reason it must be eliminated is because Political Correctness is a Trojan horse for Marxism, which always destroys everything it touches. PC is a curse which must be denounced before it mangles its host society, especially since it is the very opposite of Free Speech. More importantly, individual responsibility is eliminated by PC standards which make irrelevant personal morality. This is the subject of this essay.

I. Definition of Political Correctness

Political Correctness (PC) is shorthand for an ideology which implies ethical or moral superiority for various positions which challenge traditional morality. The Freedictionary.com defines PC as

1. Of, relating to, or supporting broad social, political, and educational change, especially to redress historical injustices in matters such as race, class, gender, and sexual orientation.

PC has become, in practice, a set of standards by which communication is purified from unacceptable content. But PC has also deeply affected public policy and law, and ultimately ideas about morality, itself. For example, against the longstanding notion of the right of free expression, even thinking many forbidden thoughts would break PC norms. And for this reason, PC has evolved from being rules for “sensitivity” training into a set of un-breachable social mores.

One author sums up this idea:

Political correctness has 3 features. First, political correctness is a set of attitudes & beliefs divorced from mainstream values. Second, the politically correct person has a prescriptive view on how people should think & what they are permitted to discuss. Third, & most importantly, political correctness is embedded in public institutions, which have a legislative base, & which have coercive powers. It is this third aspect that gives political correctness its authority. Without this capture of power the views of the politically correct would simply be another view in the marketplace of ideas. A person, an institution or a government is politically correct when they cease to represent the interests of the majority, & become focused on the cares & concerns of minority groups.

Yet, when peeling back the layers of the onion of PC, one cannot help but notice a strongly socialist or Marxist bent to these rules. And this is no coincidence. As Bill Lind says,

Political Correctness is cultural Marxism. It is Marxism translated from economic into cultural terms. It is an effort that goes back not to the 1960s and the hippies and the peace movement, but back to World War I. If we compare the basic tenets of Political Correctness with classical Marxism the parallels are very obvious.

So PC is a method for transporting Marxist ideas into traditional cultures.

II. History of Political Correctness

Political Correctness seems like the type of thing that would arise of its own merits. How misleading! Instead, the Frankfurt school of Marxism, from Frankfurt Germany, created PC as a way to disseminate their ideas in the Institute for Social Research. Bill Lind gives a brief history of this,

In 1923 in Germany, a think-tank was established to translate Marxism from economic into cultural terms. This created Political Correctness as we know it today. This institute, associated with Frankfurt University was originally supposed to be known as the Institute for Marxism. But the people behind it decided at the beginning that it was not to their advantage to be openly identified as Marxist. So instead they decided to name it the Institute for Social Research.

Then, when these Marxist professors fled Hitler, they applied to emigrate to America and were accepted. The Germans brought PC with them. As Lind says,

Members of the Frankfurt School were both Marxist and Jewish. In 1933 the Nazis came to power in Germany. Not surprisingly they shut down the Institute for Social Research. Its members fled to New York City, were the Institute was reestablished in 1933 by Columbia University. These shifted their focus from Critical Theory about German society, to Critical Theory directed toward American society.

III. Multiculturalism

Related to PC is Multiculturalism—but what is that? Dictionary.com defines Multiculturalism as “The preservation of different cultures or cultural identities within a unified society, as a state or nation.” The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy says:

Multiculturalism is a philosophical theory regarding the proper way to respond to cultural and religious diversity. Mere toleration of group falls short of making minority groups equal citizens; recognition and positive accommodation of group differences are required through “group-differentiated rights.” While multiculturalism is an umbrella term to characterize the moral and political claims of a wide range of disadvantaged groups, including African Americans, women, gays and lesbians, and the disabled, most theorists of multiculturalism tend to focus their arguments on immigrants who are ethnic and religious minorities, minority nations, and indigenous peoples.

The West is beginning to understand the problems with multiculturalism, as described in the article The Netherlands to Abandon Multiculturalism. States the author:

A new integration bill (covering letter & 15-page action plan), which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, reads: “The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people. In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role. With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society.”

IV. Effects of Political Correctness

So it is clear that PC is a Marxist ideology which is meant to help ripen the West for socialist takeover. But what are its impacts? Here are some pernicious effects of the PC movement which prove we must drop this false standard.

A: PC Opposes Freedom of Belief

Clearly, if PC blocks the expression of “bad” statements—this is because these ideas are inherently unacceptable. In other words, one should be ashamed at having these thoughts. As individuals lose their freedom to express their beliefs, they lose their ability to think freely, as well.

B: PC Allows an Ideology Without Standards of Right & Wrong to Establish Morality

There is no locus of morality in Marxist or socialist thought—merely a demand to equally distribute all world goods. Therefore, PC beliefs, rules and judgments can only be subjective.

C: PC Assumes Moral Excellence is Achievable Without Debate

The chief presumption of PC is that all serious moral debate about the human condition has already taken place and arguing about it is redundant. This is related to the philosopher Hegel’s (Marx’s role model) insane idea that history was over now that Hegel had come on the scene.

D: PC Presumes Moral Bravery is Unobjectionable

An absurd result of the PC fiction is that all moral struggles have now been solved, and the outcome is not only clear, but unremarkable. Yet, if this were assumed in the past, many irreplaceable debates would have never happened, including over democracy, sufferagism, slavery, women and children’s rights, etc. But this is a nonsensical conclusion.

E: PC Sanctions Mere Words

PC seeks to make illegal every insensitive use of language. Yet only for socialist or Marxist causes.

F: PC Predetermines Truths & Stops Honest Moral Analysis

Perhaps the most audacious presumption of PC is that all truths are already known and have been processed by PC thinkers and writers. So it eliminates the idea that truth be debated since it has already been decided beforehand. In doing this, it makes all moral debates redundant.

G: PC Keeps People From Talking Honestly so Cripples Free Debate

PC means one cannot freely discuss any controversial topic since such a debate presumes honesty. But if moral positions are predetermined, then it is simply unacceptable to announce or advent for any positions not already blessed by PC. This stops people and societies from dealing with the most pressing problems.

H: PC Forces Individuals to Accept Ideas Against Their Conscience

Even a few years ago, a person of a religious mindset could espouse opposition to things of which they disapproved. Now to do so would mean public sanctions and possibly criminal penalties. All for merely disagreeing with certain thoughts or activities.

I: PC Makes Certain Groups Above Criticism

A dangerous aspect of PC is the tendency to defend the actions of individuals not by virtue of their inherent morality, but instead by association of their tribal source.

J: PC Makes Logic, History & Ethics Subservient to Lesser Concerns

PC forces socialist mores and standards upon individuals even though history reveals such ideas always fail, and common sense indicates these beliefs lack all ethical soundness.

K: PC Creates Distrust Between Races & Cultures

Since the PC movement has created special categories and rewards for those of exemplary status, other groups feel suspicious of these persons. This refusal to accept meritocracy can only breed unsoundness and destruction in such sacrosanct groups.

L: PC is Anti-Efficiency, Rewarding Status Over Achievement

If groups are rewarded not by their good works, but merely by being a passive member of a protected class, this action will certainly increase indolence and incompetence.

M: PC is Backwards Looking

The PC movement seeks to repay groups on the basis of things denied their predecessors which is not just irrational, but also unfair to those amongst the living.

N: PC Breaks Down Potential for Democracy

Since PC opposes free speech, it harms democracy since democracy is based upon free political choice.

O: PC Claims Coercion More Important Than Persuasion

Clearly, since PC spends so much time and effort to silence “insensitive” speakers—it cares more about shutting people up as opposed to persuade them. Therefore, PC can lead to conflict by bottling up anger, ignorance and misunderstandings.

P: PC Invalidates All Religions Which Claim Timeless Morality

If the PC movement is correct, all traditional—meaning biblical religions—must be false, since they regularly argue against PC standards. Therefore, PC is not just anti-religion but also against traditional morality. Therefore it is very destructive of society.

V. If Not for PC, Barack Would No Longer be in Office

It is obvious that Obama has received many kudos for being the first true minority elected president. Yet, it is also doubtless that he gathers enormous sympathy and pity for this status, as well. Yet, if we are honest, we must admit that another president would not have received the same support and forgiveness for his many mistakes. So, since Barack is destroying America through ignorance, laziness or even ill-will, the PC movement is likewise dissolving the US.

Therefore, we must destroy PC before it destroys us. And the only way to eviscerate this intellectual parasite and moral blight is to demand Free Speech be regarded as more important than PC and its countless restrictions. Further, that PC is the mortal enemy of Free Speech and only one of them can survive. These leftist codes must be permanently dismissed in favor of our ancestral liberties and rights, or bondage will be established as surely as night follows day.
