Have Your Sheriff Investigate Whether The 16th Amendment Was Ratified In Your State!

Have Your Sheriff Investigate Whether The 16th Amendment Was Ratified In Your State!


It has been reported that your federal government has NOT paid their fees to keep their Charter, and their Debt Limit has NOT risen for 175 days, so they should be Officially Bankrupt and in Default!!!

So now it is time for your Sheriff to investigate as to whether the Actual Archives of the 16th Amendment that Bill Benson has found out from each of the 48 States from 1913 that there were ONLY 4 States that Constitutionally Ratified it, thus for over 100 Years there has been Fraud going on to support Theft and Bankruptcy!

You should go get your own copy of the Actual Archives of the 16th Amendment Ratification to back yourself up, but get at least 20 people to go in to Your Sheriff's Office and Mandate an investigation as it applies to the Present USA Bankruptcy, as well as the others when this comes to Fact.

The Sheriff is one of three positions that can Arrest the President of the United States, and the other two are the Provost Marshall and the State Attorney General!

If your Sheriff refuses to investigate then you can have them Criminally Charged for doing business with a corporation that is Bankrupt, and We ALL Know the Cities and Counties Financially Support the Federal Government, or Truly they Receive Federal Grants, which is a crime when they are Bankrupt.

It is best to get the Sheriff in the County with the State Capital to do the investigation for their whole State, and then in ALL 48 States to focus in as then the State Capital itself cannot reject it for themselves for the State to stay in business, as they are a Sub-Corporation.

It could be a lot easier for the Sheriff to Mandate the Judge's decision on Bill Benson's 2 Volume Book “The Law That Never Was” to be overturned to have the Book released as the Judge actually placed a GAG order on the Info of the Truth of the 16th Amendment Ratification, and that Judge works for the American BAR Association who works for the Queen!

Check out here:
On January 10, 2008, the Federal District Court in Chicago issued a permanent injunction against Bill Benson on the grounds that by offering information demonstrating that the 16th Amendment was not legally ratified, he was promoting an abusive tax shelter.”

If THE UNITED STATES, INC. has been really Bankrupt since 1933 per the Bank Conservation Act of 1933 and just built up a Debt, then every one of them has Committed a Felony, and We The People do have a Right to get them put in Prison and We get Paid back!

Here is what it says in The Declaration of Independence:
That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.”

Written by Michael Rivero, this film will truly change your views on how our banking system uses War to affect our daily lives. Recommended for all ages.

Investigate The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC. Not Having A Charter!

We The People, Sheriffs, and Larry Klayman,
 
Ask your Government Officials to investigate on the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC. Not having a Charter, and Judicial Watch should file a Lawsuit!
 
If THE UNITED STATES, INC. has been really Bankrupt since 1933 per the Bank Conservation Act of 1933 and just built up a Debt, then every one of them has Committed a Felony, and We The People do have a Right to get them put in Prison and We get Paid back!
 
If you believe this is ONLY 'Fiction' then You have committed Felonies to support it this far, and You OWN Nothing as it was paid with nothing!
 
It has been reported that your federal government has NOT paid their fees to keep their Charter, and their Debt Limit has NOT risen for 175 days, so they should be Officially Bankrupt and in Default!!!
 
Why are the Politicians Still Getting Paid when they are Bankrupt?
 
In your City or County you should get at least 20 people to go in to Your Officials and Demand an investigation on whether the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC. has a corporate Charter, and they have NOT made a payment for 6 months.
 
You can do your own investigation with knowledgeable people to back you up, but you really need to confront your own Government Officials, primarily the Police Chief or Sheriff, and mandate they do it.
 
If any of them refuse to investigate then you can have them Criminally Charged for doing business with a corporation that is Bankrupt, and We ALL Know the Cities and Counties Financially Support the Federal Government, or Truly they Receive Federal Grants, which is a crime when they are Bankrupt.
 
We in the City Accept your Federal Grant from a Bankrupt Corporation!!!”
 
You cannot go to Trial under Statutory Law to fight it as the Judge is on the payroll of a Bankrupt Corporation, or they can Claim they only work for the BAR Association that has NO Affiliation with the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC. as they serve the Queen, so they either confess to one crime or they confess to another!!!
 
But maybe you should have your Government Officials turn down the investigation so you can confront a Judge to have them Dismiss the case before you even step foot into their Courtroom, as then you can have them Arrested as they Work for the Corporations one way or another, so they would not be able to Dismiss it.
 
And there CANNOT be 3, 6, or 12 month delays on going to Court as they are Doing Business NOW with a Bankrupt Corporation!
 
If the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC. is Bankrupt then why are You We The People supporting to continue to finance Wars, for later those Military Personnel will NOT get Paid?

Bank Caught Using Fake Gold As Reserve Capital In Russia

Bank Caught Using Fake Gold As Reserve Capital In Russia

Citing a source, Banki.ru notes that as part of its probe, instead of gold, the “regulator found gold-plated metal”

Bank Caught Using Fake Gold As Reserve Capital In Russia
by Zero Hedge | September 13, 2015

Over the past several years, incidents involving fake gold (usually in the form of gold-plated tungsten) have emerged every so often, usually involving Manhattan’s jewelry district, some of Europe’s bigger gold foundries, or the occasional billion dealer. But never was fake gold actually discovered in the form monetary gold, held by a bank as reserve capital and designed to fool bank regulators of a bank’s true financial state. This changed on Friday when Russia’s “Admiralty” Bank, which had its banking license revoked last week by Russia’s central bank, was reportedly using gold-plated metal as part of its “gold reserves.“
According to Russia’s Banki.ru, as part of a probe in the Admiralty bank, the central bank regulator questioned the existence of the bank’s reported quantity of precious metals held in reserve. Citing a source, Banki.ru notes that as part of its probe, instead of gold, the “regulator found gold-plated metal.”
The Russian website further adds that according to “Admiralty” bank’s financial statements, as of August 1 the bank had declared as part of its highly liquid assets precious metals amounting to 400 million roubles. The last regulatory probe of the bank was concluded in the second half of August, said one of the Banki.ru sources. Another source claims that as part of the probe, the auditor questioned the actual availability of the bank’s precious metals and found gold-painted metal.
The website notes that shortly before the bank’s license was revoked, the bank had offered its corporate clients to withdraw funds after paying a commission of 30%. This is shortly before Russia’s central bank disabled Admiralty’s electronic payment systems on September 7.
Admiralty Bank was a relatively small, ranked in 289th place among Russian banks in terms of assets. On August 1 the bank’s total assets were just above 8 billion roubles, while the monthly turnover was in the order of 40-55 billion rubles. The balance of the bank’s assets was poorly diversified: two-thirds of the bank’s assets (4.9 billion rubles) were invested in loans. The rest of the assets, about 30%, were invested in highly liquid assets.
Or at least highly liquid on paper: according to Banki.ru the key reason for the bank’s license revocation was the central bank’s insistence that the bank had insufficient reserves against possible loan losses.
The Russian central bank has not yet made an official statement.
The first question, obviously, is if a small-to-mid level Russian bank was using gold-plated metal to fool the central bank about the quality of its “gold-backed” reserves, how many other Russian banks are engaged in comparable fraud. The second question, and perhaps more relevant, is how many global banks – especially among emerging markets, where gold reserves remain a prevalent form of physical reserve accumulation – are engaging in comparable fraud.
Finally, what does this mean for gold itself, whose price on one hand is sliding with every passing day (thanks in part to what is now a record 228 ounces of paper claims on every ounce of physical gold as reported before), even as it increasingly appears there is a major global physical shortage. If the Admiralty bank’s fraud is found to be pervasive, what will happen to physical gold demand as more banks are forced to buy the yellow metal in the open market to avoid being shuttered and/or prison time for the executives?

Homeland Security "Bombshell President Barack Obama is not eligible to work in the United States" 9-13-15......

 
Ever heard of E-Verify?
Most employers have. E-Verify is a free verification system under the umbrella of the Department of Homeland Security. Registered employers can use this system to make sure that job applicants are eligible for employment.
Interestingly enough, our own President doesn’t pass muster. As it would turn out, Barack Obama has been given the job of “leader of the free world,” but is not eligible to be a fry cook at your local Burger King.
The man couldn’t even get a job sweeping the floors at the White House yet he is living there.
How can this be?
This is a media and government cover up. It goes way beyond what you might think. Big right wing news sources have been accused of their complicity in the matter as well.
I will show you documents that leave little doubt to my claims, but ultimately it probably won’t matter. This is the biggest fraud in American history and no one in congress seems to care, courts won’t even hear the case, and the citizens are more worried about how many TD passes their fantasy QB has today than the fact that a usurper is in office.
Nevertheless, I present the truth.

North End Ambassadors looking for expansion after successful summer

 North End Ambassadors looking for expansion after successful summer
CBC - North End Ambassadors looking for expansion after successful summer

Managers of Winnipeg's North End Ambassador Program are searching for private sponsors to allow the program to expand after enduring a successful summer. 
The non-confrontational street patrol program is run by the North End Community Renewal Corporation, and its aim is to create a safe and clean neighbourhood. 
Specifically, what the group does ranges from organizing safe walks, to picking up needles and crack pipes, to reporting illegal dumping in the area. 
"It takes time to find needles because they are so small, some of them are clear, not all of them have caps on them. It's unbelievable how many needles are in the North End, especially where the children are walking towards their schools and that," the program manager Kenneth Harry said.
"People say they're in the back lanes, it's not in the back lanes anymore. It's mostly in the boulevards, in parks and stuff. We found them in St. John's Park."
In the last year alone, the group has picked up more than 1,500 used needles, Harry said. 
Currently, the program relies on a number of volunteers, if the program can secure sponsorship, Harry hopes to be able to pay some of those volunteers. 
"We'd like to have some sustainable funding. It's a chance for organizations to show some visible support for the health and safety of Winnipeg's inner city communities," Harry said.
Marcel Anderson volunteers with the ambassador program, and he said his son has inspired him to help create change in the community.
"My role basically is ... just be a role model in the community. Doing what I can do for the next generation to have a safe and cleaner environment there in the North End," he said.

I bring this information to the public with a very heavy heart. Some journalists revel in being able to expose the type of dramatic conspiracy contained in this article.
I take no such pleasure in bringing this to your attention. I will receive no awards or accolades, nor do I seek any. I am setting myself up to be criticized as “one of those conspiracy theorists” with too much time on his hands who has nothing better to do with my time than to invent wild tales of corruption in an attempt to draw attention to myself. I will not be invited on Coast to Coast AM, to reveal my findings to an audience of 12 million people. Perhaps, 10-20 thousand people will actually take the time to read the stunning facts contained in the following paragraphs. What I am trying to accomplish is to start a chain reaction that will culminate in waking up a majority of the public in order to rise up against the abject evil that runs our country. This article is controversial, and I might not actually believe it myself except that every fact in this article is true.
This article is structured in such a way that if the reader takes the time to follow the evidence trail, there can only be one conclusion that makes any sense.
Specifically, this article will detail the following:
The globalists through their government minions are in the process of destroying massive bodies of water including, but not limited to Chesapeake Bay, the Great Lakes, the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico. The destruction is not because of neglect, it is willful destruction with very ulterior motives in mind.
The globalists are using nitrates from fertilizer and Corexit to accomplish their desire to create a dead zone in the aforementioned bodies of water.
The globalists are creating water dead zones which will allow the proliferation of algae growth and the oil companies have initially led the charge to convert our energy usage from oil to algae.
Prominent globalists are involved in this conspiracy and have contributed massive resources to this endeavor.
Prominent globalists are attempting to buy up as much water as possible to exacerbate the destruction of water resources in the aforementioned areas. In other words, Americans are looking at extreme water scarcity from which the globalists can wage wars and force submission to their will, while at the same time carry out their stated depopulation agenda.
My instincts tell me that this conspiracy has more breadth and depth than what is revealed here and it is my sincere hope that my fellow researchers will afford some much needed attention to these issues, because I strongly believe there is more to learn and we do not have much time because humanity’s fate hangs in the balance.

Four firefighters suffered burn injuries while battling a new wildfire in California that broke out Saturday and quickly grew, authorities said.
The firefighters were injured while working to put out the so-called Valley Fire in Lake County northwest of Sacramento, which swelled from 400 acres to 10,000 acres in a matter of hours, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, also known as Cal Fire, said.
By Saturday night the fire had grown to 25,000 acres, Cal Fire said. Ash was reported to be falling in Sacramento, about 90 miles away, the Sacramento Fire Department said.
Hundreds of firefighters were working to protect homes. The community of Cobb, an area of about 1,600 people, was under mandatory evacuation orders.
All Cal Fire personnel were called back into duty late Saturday because of fire activity statewide, and all days off were cancelled, a fire official said.

Bitcoin ATMs to Hit Greece as Trust in Banks Disappears

Bitcoin ATMs to Hit Greece as Trust in Banks Disappears
Posted By: Susoni [Send E-Mail]
Date: Saturday, 12-Sep-2015 15:42:25

The drachma drama may be over and the Brussels bailout agreed – but businesses in Greece are looking for alternative currency models. More than 1,000 ATMs are set to spring up in the country as trust in the banking system is disappearing.
And bitcoin, the so-called 'crypto-currency' could be the solution. According to Coin Telegraph, BTCGreece, the first bitcoin exchange in Greece, plans to install 1,000 bitcoin machines in partnership with bitcoin platform, Cubits.
Strict capital controls have been in place in Greece since June, leaving people and businesses unable to withdraw more than $66 (60 euros) a day and banned from transferring money to foreign bank accounts. This has led to more people viewing Bitcoin as a viable alternative.
"We are creating the ecosystem of bitcoin and blockchain solutions in the Greek market," BTCGreece founder Thanos Marinos told CoinTelegraph.
"That will include the roll out of 1,000 ATMs and solutions for the e-commerce and tourism industry."

As part of the bailout package, Greece agreed to increase Value Added Tax (VAT) from 13 to 23 percent, leaving retailers no choice but to pass on the increase to the customer — and the customer forced to pay more for goods.
But when it comes to bitcoin, the European Court of Justice recently ruled that the digital currency was not a 'taxable event' in the eyes of VAT.
This could be why the installation of 1,000 ATMs in Greece is seen as a popular move, while the traditional banking system relies on its bailout from Brussels.

Refugee Crisis: Saudi Arabia Says It Has Taken In 2.5 Million Fleeing Syrians
by International Business Times | Jerome Anthony | September 13, 2015

After attracting severe criticism on social media and from members of the Muslim community around the world, Saudi Arabia has defended itself saying that the kingdom has accepted more than 2.5 million refugees since the Syrian conflict began.
The oil-rich nation also claimed that it has given permanent residency to hundreds of thousands of Syrians ever since 2011.
Rich Gulf nations have been condemned for not welcoming Syrian refugees, who are fleeing the civil war and the Islamic State (Isis) onslaught in the country and making perilous journeys to Europe via sea. While numerous countries apart from Europe are embracing thousands of migrants, Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) members Saudi Arabia, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrainand Qatar have been blamed for remaining silent on the issue.
However, according to the Saudi Press Agency, an unnamed official of the Saudi foreign ministry has said that nearly 2.5 million Syrians have been given shelter in the Islamic kingdom. The official stressed that Syrians are not treated as refugees and are not placed in camps “to ensure their dignity and safety”.
Al Jazeera quoted the foreign ministry official as saying: “[it was] important to clarify these efforts with facts and numbers in response to media reports, which included false and misleading accusations about the kingdom.

Congressman rips VA after 300,000 deaths

(Military are to Die for their country, so why don't we mandate the Politicians Serve as well? And doesn't this show the same acceptance on Obamacare for what you will get?)

Congressman rips VA after 300,000 deaths

'We spent $3 billion on making it happen, and nothing happened'


veteran2
The Department of Veterans Affairs inspector general says more than 300,000 veterans likely died waiting to be added to to the beleaguered federal program, and one of the leading congressional investigators says solutions are slow in coming because VA leaders are slow to report critical data and what they do submit often cannot be trusted.
Last week, the inspector general reported that 800,000 veterans suffered unacceptable delays in getting their applications processed just to enter the system. That information did not come willingly. It was demanded by Congress.
“This is a report that came out from the inspector general simply because our committee asked for it,” Rep. Dan Benishek, R-Mich., told WND and Radio America. “Now the VA’s own inspector general is admitting 800,000 records were stalled in their system.”
Benishek was a surgeon for decades at a VA hospital in his district. He is now a member of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee and chairman of its health subcommittee.
The IG report is the latest massive black eye for the VA. In May 2014, whistleblowers revealed veterans were forced to wait months for treatment in many cases, and some facilities cooked the books to make it look like care was being delivered in a much more timely fashion.
Despite a major reform bill signed into law last year, Benishek said it’s unclear what progress is actually being made.
“I understand it’s difficult to get things moving in government,” he said. “You need to make some dramatic steps to get this ship turned around, but I don’t know that it’s actually turning around.”

Listen to the WND/Radio America interview with Rep. Dan Benishek, R-Mich.:
 
A big reason lawmakers struggle to chart any improvement at the VA is the stunning lack of cooperation from the VA itself.
"If we had facts, if we had the data, then we could make better decisions," Benishek said. "The VA's been unforthcoming to provide that data. The administration needs to get up front and center. The president should really make this a priority."
Adding to the frustration, Benishek said, is the nagging doubt about the accuracy of the little information the VA does provide to Congress.
"They keep saying, 'We're working on it. We're working on it,' and then you heard last year that all the numbers were cooked," Benishek said. "It's hard to trust what we get out of them. Frankly, that's a continued problem. Until I see some improvement there, I'm going to continue to hammer on them to make faster improvements."
So far, it's been one excuse after another.
"Just before we left for our break, they told us they were $3 billion over budget in providing health care for veterans, and they didn't even know it because they had 'old software.' This kind of mismanagement can't be tolerated anymore. We need to put a stop to it," he said.
One of the most hopeful aspects of the reform package last year allowed veterans to seek health care in the private marketplace and send the bill to the government. The "choice" program was expected to improve care and reduce the backlog, but it hasn't always worked out that way.
"It hasn't been working that well because the VA has had a hard time signing up providers for it. I've had veterans complain to me that it hasn't been working for them in all cases. I've had other veterans tell me that it's working OK," said Benishek, who noted that another massive headache centers around vast disparities in competency and leadership from facility to facility.
"Depending on where you are in the country, there's different performance of the VA. There's not a standardized performance nationwide," Benishek said. "If you've been to one VA hospital, you've been to one VA hospital."
Another part of the reform bill was the demand for an independent assessment of the VA's practices. That report is due soon, and Benishek said he is tentatively encouraged by the executive summary. He said one simple idea that could have avoided a lot of hassle for veterans is for the medical records of active-duty military personnel to automatically transfer from the Department of Defense to the VA.
But even the simple ideas tend to hit major roadblocks. Benishek said this idea has been tried before, and it was a flop.
"We've worked with the Department of Defense and the VA Department in the past, and both secretaries were in front of me in a committee saying, 'We're going to get this done.' We spent $3 billion on making it happen, and nothing happened," Benishek said.
He also believes the VA should study what works best at effective VA hospitals and push those standards and practices on the dysfunctional facilities.
"In my district, we have a good VA hospital director. He's been working with us well, solves the problems that we bring to his attention. That should be going on all over the country," he said.
Ultimately, he said, real progress will require the government making this a top priority, and that's not happening right now. He said loud insistence on progress from the American people could make a huge difference.
"It's really up to the American people to put enough pressure on the administration to make some real change in the VA," Benishek said.
