A defining moment for President Trump and this young administration

Freed North Korea hostages hand over emotional note for President Trump after landing in U.S.

 

 

The release of the North Korean hostages is a defining moment for this young administration.

 

May 13, 2018

 

 

What may be even more defining is a note handed over to Vice President Mike Pence by one of the hostages to give to the President:

When Trump took office, he immediately called out Kim Jong Un.

He was constantly putting pressure on the rogue world leader.

Trump even went so far as to call him “Rocket Man,” embarrassing Kim for all the world to see.

Dems swore up and down Trump was putting us on the verge of war, but Trump was doing nothing more than playing a high-stakes game of chicken with the North Korean leader.

Kim blinked first and not only backed down, but offered to open up talks to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.

Then, as a gesture of good faith, Kim released three Americans that were being held prisoner.

The Release  

When the prisoners were released, it amazingly did not garner the headlines everyone thought it would.

Rather than giving Trump credit for another item marked off his list, the liberal media tried to find a way to rip the achievement down.

However, the accomplishment of the administration was not lost on the three men that were freed.

As a token of their appreciation and a show of the faith that permitted them to exist day in and day out under horrible conditions, one of the prisoners passed the note to Pence.

Had he waited a little longer, he would have been able to give the note to the President himself, because POTUS and FLOTUS greeted the men before they got off the plane.

For many of us, our dream is to have a six-figure job, a big family, and professional success — but that was not the dream of these men.

Their dream was simply to get their freedom back… and Trump made it come true.

Do you really believe that Obama or Hillary would have taken the needed steps to gain the release of these three hostages? No!  In fact, Hillary would have asked for a bar-b-q featuring the three men and invited herself as a guest. 

Our nation FINALLY has a REAL President in our President Trump! One who is smart, loves the nation and its people, and spends the time to do whatever it takes to turn this nation around.  We are most fortunate.  Pray for him and his family like never before for wisdom, insight, strength to continue and that he will not be deceived, led astray or overtaken by the reptillians.

Obama's 'legacy'?

  

The Con is On

By Anna Von Reitz

I am reposting this article because I want to shock people into full wake-up mode.   File your Human Trafficking complaints and reclaim your birthright political status now.  

Submitted by Mark Glennon of Wirepoints --- Reposting from Rumormillnews

An audible gasp went out in the breakout room I was in at last month’s pension event cosponsored by The Civic Federation and the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. That was when a speaker from the Chicago Fed proposed levying, across the state and in addition to current property taxes, a special property assessment they estimate would be about 1% of actual property value each year for 30 years.

Evidently, that wasn’t reality-shock enough. This week the Chicago Fed published that proposal formally. It’s linked here.

It surely ranks among the most blatantly inhumane and foolish ideas we’ve seen yet.

Homeowners with houses worth $250,000 would pay an additional $2,500 per year in property taxes, those with homes worth $500,000 would pay an additional $5,000, and those with homes worth $1 million would pay an additional $10,000.

Is the Chicago Fed blind to human consequences? Confiscatory property tax rates have already robbed hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, of Illinois families of their home equity — probably the lion’s share of whatever wealth they had.

Property taxes in many Illinois communities already exceed 3%, 4% and even 5% of home values. Across Illinois, the average is a sky-high 2.67 percent, the highest in the nation.

In south Cook County they already average over 5%. Most of those communities are working class, often African-American. The Fed says maybe you could make the tax progressive by exempting lower values, but that’s very difficult to do and, if you did somehow exempt the poor and working class, the bill pushed to the others would be astronomical.

Those rates have already plunged many communities into death spirals, demanding an immediate solution, but the Chicago Fed apparently wants to pour on more of the accelerant.

Don’t they understand that people won’t build on or improve property when property taxes are that high? When taxes are 3 percent to 6 percent, any value you add to your home is going to be taxed at that high rate forever. Have they never been to our communities with countless disrepaired, abandoned homes and commercial properties, which are the result?

Get this, which is part of the Fed’s reasoning:

“New taxes wouldn’t affect people thinking of moving to Illinois. While they would have to pay higher property taxes, that would be offset by not having to pay as much for their new homes. In addition, current homeowners would not be able to avoid the new tax by selling their homes and moving because home prices should reflect the new tax burden quickly.”

In other words, just confiscate wealth from current owners because they will pay, whether they stay or not, through an immediate reduction in home value.

This proposed tax would only address the five state pensions. What about the other 650-plus pensions in Illinois, particularly those for overlapping jurisdictions in Chicago which are grossly underfunded? The Fed was asked that at last month’s seminar and they, without explanation, said they didn’t bother to cover that.

I’ve earlier met Rick Mattoon, one of the Chicago Fed authors of the proposal. He’s a smart, likeable guy who I thought had lots of interesting information. For the life of me, however, I can’t understand how he would put his name on this proposal.

Property can’t leave, so seize it. That’s the basic idea.

Planetary Location Check -- Where is Bob Hurt?

By Anna Von Reitz

 

What planet are you living on, Bob?   

Larry Becraft has replied to things I never said, and you think that that constitutes proving me wrong?  Hello?  

Larry put up a big explanation of the repeal of the Act of 1871 and pretended that this had something to do with me.  I never brought the subject up.

And when I corrected him and gave the complete history of the Act of 1871 and showed how it was repealed and then instituted via a piecemeal process that was completed by 1878, neither you nor he had a word to say.   He didn't show me up.  I showed him up.  

I not only showed up the fact that he was making a false argument, but I shamed him for telling half the truth. 

You want to interpret that sorry performance and others like it, all having the same result, as Larry putting Anna in her place?  

Just like now.  Faced with having to rattle off a few legal definitions, you suddenly have nothing to say. 

Why?  Because you are blowing off your mouth.  You don't really know what you're talking about.  And you are too lazy to find out. 

Shame on you.  Shame on the horse that brought you.  Shame on your pal, Larry, too, because he knows better. 

The Obama Legacy Deserves To Be Destroyed

By David Harsanyi
May 12, 2018 at 12:20pm

It’s strange that a president who had such a transformative effect on our national discourse will leave such a negligible policy legacy.

But Barack Obama, whose imperial term changed the way Americans interact and in some ways paved the way for the Trump presidency, is now watching his much-celebrated and mythologized two-term legacy be systematically demolished. This, in many ways, tells us that American governance still works.

When President Donald Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal, he was able to do so without much difficulty because the agreement hinged on presidential fiat rather than national consensus. Obama’s appeasement of Iran was only one in a string of unilateral norm-busting projects that deserve to be dismantled.
 
You’ll remember the panic-stricken coverage we endured when the United States withdrew from the faux international Paris climate agreement last year. It’s true that the deal was oversold as a matter of policy (by both parties for political reasons), but it was symbolic of how the Obama administration concerned itself more with international consensus than domestic compromise.

We know this because the president would never have won ratification for a deal remotely similar to the one he entered — nor did he attempt to. Obama, despite the hagiographic framing of his scandal-ridden presidency, had about as much interest in genuine concession as his political adversaries did.

Obama allies at home incessantly pointed to poll numbers as a justification for his executive abuse, mostly because the only polls that really mattered, congressional elections, continued to soundly reject his agenda.

The defense rested on the idea that the Republican-led Congress had failed to “do its job” and act on issues Democrats had deemed vital. But Congress, of course, “acted” all the time by checking the president’s ambitions. This was not only well within its purview but also in many ways the reason the electorate handed the GOP Congress in the first place.

Even if you substantively supported Obama’s actions — as I do on legalizing the children of immigrants who are in the country illegally, for instance — the reasoning that girded these supposedly temporary executive decisions was soon revealed to be abusive.

In 2012, Obama told the nation that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which by any standard was a stand-in for legislation, was merely a “temporary stopgap measure.” 

By the time Trump overturned it, the measure represented “who we are as a people.” That’s because by “temporary,” Obama always meant “until Democrats can make it permanent through the courts or electoral victories.”

Even when implementing laws Congress could pass, Obama and his allies relied on coercing participation through mandates. But when it became inconvenient, they began arbitrarily implementing parts of laws.
 
Administrative discretion became administrative abuse. When the president decided Obamacare’s employer mandate was politically inconvenient, for example, he simply skipped it for expediency.

The Constitution doesn’t say, “No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law unless liberals tell us it’s super important.” Yet shortly after the passage of the Affordable Care Act, the Obama administration realized it would need more subsidies and asked for an appropriation from Congress.

When Congress, then teeming with politicians elected on the promise of overturning Obamacare, refused, then-Treasury Secretary Jack Lew ordered the administration to begin making “cost-sharing reduction” payments anyway without any public legal justification.

Obama created a $7 billion per year appropriation for insurance companies participating in the supposedly self-sufficient and competitive state health care exchanges. Not a single liberal pundit that I know of concerned himself with this norm-breaking.

One federal court found the Obamacare subsidy unconstitutional, and the case was working its way toward the Supreme Court. But then again, no administration in memory was stopped more often by courts, often by unanimous Supreme Court decisions.

Whether it was ignoring the Senate in making appointments or claiming to rewrite employment law, Obama tried to function without constitutional restraints.

None of this even breaches the unprecedented regulatory regime Obama built to circumvent the legislative branch. Even The New York Times characterized his governing as “bureaucratic bulldozing, rather than legislative transparency."

Fortunately, it is also unsustainable. As we now see, this kind of governance not only corrodes constitutional order but also undermines stability, as new presidents busy themselves overturning the executive actions and international agreements enacted by the previous.

While most Americans aren’t sticklers for process, it seems they are content with destroying legacies built on the rickety foundation of unilateralism for political reasons.

That’s fine, too. It means that if Trump engages in similar legislative efforts through the executive office, his agenda will also be dismantled one day. That’s as it should be.

Do you agree that the 'Obama legacy' deserves to be destroyed?

State Sanctioned Abduction: Child Kidnapped From Army Vet by State and the Reason Will Shock You (Videos)

by N.Morgan

Emigrate While You Still Can! Learn More...

The reason the precious little girl above was kidnapped from her loving family, due to the fact her father, Edward Thomas chose to treat his crippling Post Traumatic Stress Disorder with medical Cannabis.

On March 22nd, 2018, the Thomas Family of Eagle, Idaho, experienced first hand just how harsh the state of Idaho can be when someone chooses to use medical cannabis, rather than dangerous pharmaceuticals.

Edward Thomas with daughter Zoey. Photo from Justice for the Thomas Family Facebook Page.

Edward Thomas is a 29-year-old, Iraq Veteran of the Army National Guard.
He spent a year stationed within a combat zone in Baghdad and suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) caused by the horrors of war he witnessed during his time in battle.


Edward Thomas served his country in Iraq. Now, the state has removed his daughter simply because he found relief for his PTSD and seizures from medical cannabis. Photo supplied by family.

In the past couple of decades, it has been common knowledge that soldiers suffering from PTSD are almost always prescribed a strong cocktail of psych drugs, that more often than not, have toxic side effects that are worse than the disorder itself.

U.S. military vets are committing suicide at a higher rate than seen before and we are losing more of our veterans to suicide. The suicide stats even dwarf the number of fatalities due to war.

Edward Thomas also suffers from a small benign tumor in his brain that has caused several epileptic episodes in the past.

Edward currently works as a customer service representative in Boise, Idaho, to provide for his small family, including his wife of six years, Ashley, and 2-year-old daughter, Zoey.

Edward and Ashley are also currently expecting their second daughter, Scarlet, due to arrive on June 22nd, 2018.

Ashley is a 27-year-old, disabled mother, that suffers from scoliosis, heart issues, as well as chronic depression and Bipolar disorder.

Both Edward and Ashley have found relief from their suffering due to their various conditions, through the use of medical cannabis.

Edward stated:

It helps with my nightmares and insomnia caused by my time overseas. I used to wake up in a panic from dreams that I was killed in an explosion or seeing my family killed in one. It helped me stop taking several pills for depression and anxiety and even helps with my chronic pain.




CPS Shows Up to New Home Based on Anonymous Phone Call


Ashley with daughter, Zoey. Photo from Justice for the Thomas Family Facebook Page.

On the morning of March 22nd, Ashley was home alone with Zoey, about to eat breakfast, when two social workers from the Idaho Department of Health Welfare, Child Protection Division, showed up at their door.

Amy Johnson and Holly Lavoie told Ashley that they had received an anonymous phone call with a report of concern for Zoey’s well-being and asked Ashley if they could come inside the home.

Ashley declined and stated that she was busy right then. She says that the social workers pointed out a bong that was sitting on the counter and said that she had to let them in because of the paraphernalia.

Not knowing that this was not true and that she had the 4th amendment right to say no and demand a warrant, Ashley let the social workers into her home.

Edward and Ashley had recently bought a run-down mobile home trailer to renovate and make their own. They had rented space in a park outside of the city of Eagle and had only been there for two weeks before the social workers arrived at the door.

The home was cluttered with moving boxes and animal cages.

Edward breeds guinea pigs for show and as a hobby and had several cages in the living room. Ashley explained to the social workers that they had just moved there and the house wasn’t finished being unpacked or renovated.

The kitchen was also cluttered with dishes that Ashley hadn’t had time to tackle yet, as well as more moving boxes in the process of being unpacked.

The social workers looked around the home and told Ashley that they had to call the police to report the paraphernalia. The social workers waited outside of the house for the police to arrive.

Two officers arrived on the scene and entered the home, Sheriff Deputy Paul Lim and Deputy Austin Eckhardt. They searched around of their own accord and then asked to enter the locked room. Ashley told them that it wasn’t hers and did not give permission for the police to enter it.

Ashley reports that Deputy Lim pushed on the door until it opened due to the faulty door lock, allowing the officers to look inside. Ashley says that she did not give permission, nor did the officers have a warrant to open the locked door.

Inside of the room were five medical marijuana plants, growing under some lights. The fertilizer that was being used is reportedly made from bat guano, which resulted in a very rank smell, a smell that Edward and Ashley say the social workers and police officers attributed to the conditions of the house instead of the fertilizer.

Deputy Lim and Deputy Austin called in more officers to investigate the scene. They located numerous pieces of marijuana paraphernalia, including a scale, bongs, pipes, and containers. They also located Edward’s .45 handgun, which had been secured in a gun box on a shelf in their bedroom.

According to the police reports, the officers took their time as they searched through Edward and Ashley’s belongings, noting every negative they could find within the house; even allegedly masquerading as electricians and contractors in an effort to report on the structural integrity and electrical safety of the home the Thomas Family had just purchased.

They went as far as to point out stains on the carpet, despite the fact that the Thomas Family had just moved in and couldn’t have been there long enough to create that amount of damage.

Edward and Ashley defended their home and pointed out that ALL of their belongings had just been moved to the location, so of course it was not in the most tidy condition. They had just moved in.

As many parents have found is common with these types of situations, even positives were turned into negatives.

“The fridge was well stocked…” “…but had several stains inside.”
“The child was appropriately dressed…” “…but had greasy hands.”
In the photo that was provided in the police evidence, Ashley points out the Pringles can sitting next to Zoey in the stroller and comments “of course they were greasy, she was just eating chips when they took the photo!”

Parents Arrested and Sent to Jail



Photo from Justice for the Thomas Family Facebook Page.

The police confiscated everything they found, including Edward’s legally-obtained firearm.

Idaho is a very conservative state, that strongly supports it’s citizen’s rights to bear arms, and, as a military veteran, Edward is obviously well-trained in the use and safety of weapons, but that didn’t keep the social workers and police officers from using Edward’s possession of a gun against him and taking it into evidence.

The officers and social workers ransacked the Thomas home, ultimately arresting Ashley, as well as Edward upon his arrival at the home. The couple was transported to the Ada County Jail, where they were questioned by officers, separately, without an attorney present.

Both Edward and Ashley were booked into the jail, each on three felony charges – Manufacturing a Controlled Substance, Manufacturing a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver where a Child is Present, and Injury to a Child.

A No Contact Order with Zoey was requested by the Department and granted, forbidding Edward and Ashley from any contact with their daughter.

Fortunately, Zoey was placed in a kinship foster placement with Ashley’s mother and not in the home of strangers.

Having family members nearby in their home state of Idaho to help out the young family is the main reason why they could not consider moving to a state with more friendly medical cannabis laws.



Parents Out on Bail Try to Meet Ever-Changing Demands of CPS to get Daughter Back

Edward and Ashley were able to bail out of jail with the help of their family, each on a $20,000 bond.

They’ve cooperated with the department, jumping through what seems like an endless line of hoops and demands.

They have been forced to rush the renovations on their home, costing them thousands in repairs to appease the requests of the social workers.
Edward claims:

No matter what repairs were made they seemed to constantly have something to add on.

They were told to fix the stained carpet, so they did.

Then it became the cracked tile in the kitchen. So, it was fixed.

Everything they could find had to be fixed immediately, including the smallest gap between the fridge and the cupboard.

Then it became an issue with the animals and every “what if” the social workers could drum up. So, Edward made a gate to separate the guinea pigs from the living room.

They were told by social workers that they are being “rewarded” by the department for their cooperation by being allowed to have supervised visits with their daughter.

After a little more work and cooperation, they were given unsupervised visits and promise of 48-hour visits with overnights.

They have yet to hear back on when this will be allowed, despite that they were told they’d be able to have their daughter come home next week if they cooperated fully.

Edward continued:

They just keep asking to do walk-throughs of the house; in my mind they are just looking for more reasons why it is unfit.

The social workers keep changing on them, as well as the plan for Zoey’s return home. Currently, Social worker Heather Blair is assigned to the case, with Kristen Nate supervising.

Edward and Ashley have done everything that has been asked, but the department seems to be stalling before their adjudicatory hearing.

Both Ashley and Edward continue to face three felony charges in criminal court as well, with preliminary hearings scheduled for May 25th.

Idaho Wants to Convict These Parents as Criminals – Forever Altering Their Future



Edward and Ashley on their Wedding Day. Hopes and dreams for a happy family are now dashed as they face the future of being labeled as criminals for choosing a natural healing plant over dangerous pharmaceutical drugs. Photo supplied by family.

Edward and Ashley were each offered a plea agreement at their last court date, a deal that would include five years of Felony Probation, if they just plead guilty to the two felonies related to the Marijuana, and a reduced misdemeanor Injury to Child charge.

Both Ashley and Edward turned down this deal, with the hope of fighting back against what they feel is injustice in Idaho regarding their necessity of a safer medicine and a better quality of life.

Ashley says:

I feel destroyed that they took our daughter over a healing plant. I feel like our government and justice system are corrupt and unjust. And I want justice.

Taking Dangerous Pharmaceutical Drugs Now Required to Get Daughter Back



Edward and Ashley have since had to return to taking the dangerous pharmaceuticals they were avoiding, in the hopes to control their pain and suffering.

Edward is already up to 150 mg of the anti-anxiety medication, Hydroxyzine, which is intended for short-term use only and includes side effects like involuntary motor activity and tremors, severe headaches, and hallucinations.
These young parents now live in a state of chaos and confusion, combined with physical and emotional pain, compounded with the threat of permanently losing their daughter, Zoey; and, as many expectant parents have experienced while under supervision of the Department – the fear of losing their new baby, Scarlet, upon her birth in June.

Family Advocate and local activist, Serra Frank stated:
When it comes to Medical Marijuana, the laws and policies of the state of Idaho conflict greatly with the Will of The People.

The People of Idaho do not want our Veterans locked in cages, or their children taken away, just for choosing a non-toxic plant over dangerous pharmaceuticals.
We owe our lives and our freedom to these soldiers.
And this is how we repay them? By destroying their families and forcing them into a criminal system just for making the decision to combat their demons with a safer drug?

It doesn’t make sense, and it isn’t what the people of Idaho want.

You See, Bob......

By Anna Von Reitz

You see, Bob, to adopt your own chauvinistic and condescending tone --- you make the mistake of thinking that you know what you don't know, and interpreting legal documents without knowing the legal meaning of words and terms.  

I know this is so the same way that judges always know when someone is ignorant of legal jargon and comes to their courtroom all stuffed up on what they THINK they know --- and don't.  Those are the same people who are surprised to learn that they have no "constitutional rights" while claiming to be US Citizens or "citizens of the United States". 

You make all the mistakes that patriots typically make and all the same (wrong) assumptions, too.  And the really cloying part of this, is that you look down your nose at the patriots while encouraging and displaying the same kind of ignorance yourself.   I find that very suspicious, Bob.  Is it deliberate? 

I have already proven to anyone's satisfaction that you know nothing about what "citizenship" is or what kinds of "citizenship" there are.  

I have already demonstrated that although you claim to be a "US citizen" of some kind, you don't have the least little bit of an idea what that political status obligates you to be and to do.  You don't know and can't tell me, but you are a big enough Blowhard to try to bluff it out and pretend that you know "stuff" and I don't. 

So let's put it to test, Bob.  I already gave you a long list of words that you should know the legal meanings of, presented in pairs: 

"Citizen" and "National"

"Law Enforcement" and "Peacekeeping" 

"Domestic" and "Non-domestic" 

"Resident" and "Landlord" 

"Usufruct" and "Holder in Due Course". 

"Alien" and "Inhabitant"

"Within" and "Without" 

"Including" and "Excepting"

"Judge" and "Justice" 

"Postmaster" and "Post Master"

"of" and "for" 

"United States" and "United States of America"

"Territorial" and "National"

"Declaration" and "Constitution"

"Title" and "Covenant" 

"Patent" and "Deed"

"Warrant" and "Writ"

So let's see you demonstrate even a passing knowledge of what the legal definitions of these words are for starters, before you pretend to have knowledge that you: (a) don't have or (b) have, but choose not to reveal to others. 

Somehow you think that you can just "shine me on" and make me kow-tow to your ignorance and name-calling and condescending language. 

You might as well give up with that train of thought right now.  I've faced off the Pope..  I am not going to bow to you.

My Comment on the T-ROH Warrant

By Anna Von Reitz

Okay, first of all, let’s make sure that everyone knows what a warrant and a court are. Then we will look at T-ROH’s jurisdiction or lack thereof with respect to me and others named by these madmen.

warrant. 1) n. an order (writ) of a court which directs a law enforcement officer (usually a sheriff) to arrest and bring a person before the judge, such as a person who is charged with a crime, convicted of a crime but failed to appear for sentencing, owes a fine or is in contempt of court.

Legal Definition of “court”:

Court: n. A court is a tribunal, often as a government institution, with the authority to adjudicate legal disputes between parties and carry out the administration of justice in civil, criminal, and administrative matters in accordance with the rule of law. ... The place where a court sits is known as a venue.

Lawful Definition of “court”:

Court: n. any tribunal within a judicial system. Under English common law and in some states it was a court which heard only lawsuits in which damages were sought, as distinguished from a court of equity which could grant special remedies.

Quote my friend, Mark Emery, Founder of The Lighthouse Law Club:

Learn about 'lawful' courts and how to hold your own court. Court is not a 'place' it's an assembly of qualified jurors convened in any location by the plaintiff and the defendant under the security of the Sheriff.  https://vimeo.com/248990751

In fact and in truth, a court is the assemblage of people creating the court. It is not a building or place (that’s merely the venue). And as you can see above, a court may be engaged in settling “legal” disputes or “lawful” disputes.

As a result, a warrant may be a “writ” issued by a lawful court, or it may be an “order” issued by a legal court.

And in any case, in order for a warrant to have any validity, the “person” – either the Natural Person addressed by a lawful court, or the legal fiction PERSON addressed by a legal court---has to be in the jurisdiction of that court.

As I do not subscribe to T-ROH and am not a citizen of T-ROH and long ago severed any association with T-ROH whatsoever (I checked out their spiel along with RuSA and all the other wannabe organizations and found them wanting for the reasons already discussed.) nothing that they say or do has any jurisdiction related to me.

In fact, their “warrant” has as much authority as a similar “warrant” issued by the Ladies’ Sewing Circle and Terrorist Society of Columbus, Ohio. The Campus Police at Georgia State have more actual authority than T-ROH.

So am I worried? Of course, I am worried. These people are nutcases, dangerously unbalanced and irrational and out ramming around South America, presumably acting as a nutcase magnet for similarly inclined persons. That is something to worry about for sure and has been reported to Homeland Security.

All that said --- 

This recent fashion for private organizations issuing “Warrants” for “Arrest” of other people was started by Kevin Annett and his International Tribunal for Crimes of Church and State, which as usual, Copycat Livingway has adopted as something he thinks he can do, too.

If anyone acts on such “Warrants” and kidnaps people who belong to other countries and other jurisdictions of the law, they are likely to: (a) be fired upon and (b) be prosecuted as criminals. 

We have extradition treaties with some other countries that allow for prisoner exchanges and settlement of criminal charges in foreign jurisdictions, but not with T-ROH, which with any luck will simply fade away as another ill-conceived foreign organization built on sand.

There's Pikers, and Then.... There's Bob Hurt

By Anna Von Reitz

Imagine this situation: 

You have spent decades of your life studying public documents that are available to everyone to read.  You look around and realize that nobody knows what those documents actually say -- so you bring forward the facts to help educate people who are suffering and "being destroyed" as Amos says, for lack of knowledge. 

And certain people start calling you a "liar" and a "fake" and God-only-knows-what-else, even though they haven't bothered to read it all themselves. They just "know" what they think they know. And then they demand that you "prove it" to them because they are too lazy to read the documents and prove it to themselves. 

Let's recap --- they haven't read the documents. You have. They won't believe  you when you tell them what the documents say.  Then they still refuse to read the documents for themselves and demand that you "prove" to them what the documents say....

Hello?  

That reminds me of the time my Best Friend Forever said she'd offer me five bucks to go pee for her because she was afraid to walk out to the latrine at summer camp in the middle of the night. 

There are some things that other people can't do "for" you.  Proving what a document that you refuse to read for yourself says --- is one of those.  

I wish there were some way that I could attach a USB cable from my ear to your ears and just download everything I know.  The world would quickly become a much safer and saner and more law-abiding place.  

Everyone would know how the governments are supposed to be structured and how they are supposed to be funded and would know where the problems lie --- and so, would correct the Mess without any big debate.  

But until people stop reacting like little babies and going "Waah!  Wahh!  That can't be so!  You must be lying to me!  Waah!  Wahh!  Prove it to me!  Waaaah!" -- and start reading and thinking as adults who are responsible for reading and researching and knowing the facts for themselves -- there is no USB cable.

You have to either believe me and take my word for what it says, or you have to read it yourself and determine what it says.  Those are the two options that Nature gave us.  All those that want "proof" need to man up and prove it to themselves, especially as I and others have already done the heavy lifting and told everyone where to look.

Cracks in Hawaii volcano roar amid warnings of more

By Terray Sylvester

PAHOA, Hawaii (Reuters) - New fissures roaring like jet engines and spewing magma have opened on Hawaii's Kilauea volcano, piling lava as high as a four-story building as the U.S. Geological Survey warned that more outbreaks were likely.

A crack in pasture land on Kilauea's east flank was the 16th recorded since the U.S. volcano, one of the world's most active, erupted eight days ago. Thousands of people have fled their homes on Big Island and dozens of homes have been destroyed.

The new fissure opened up on Saturday about a mile (1.6 km) east of the existing vent system that has devastated the island's Leilani Estates neighborhood, close to several homes on the edge of the field.

"It's right by my house, which is kind of scary," said Haley Clinton, 17, who walked to see the new crack with her father, Darryl, and sister Jolon, 15. "It's really cool."

From afar, the fissure gave off dull, thumping roars that sharpened on approach to a scream from venting steam and gas, mixed with the slapping sounds of liquid lava.

Within hours of opening, the fissure had piled reddish-black lava about 40 feet (12 meters) high and at least 150 feet (45 meters) in length. Chunks of magma were being spewed 100 feet (30 meters) in the air.

The intense heat left onlookers drenched with sweat, and the air was filled with an acrid, burned scent. But with billowing gas and smoke blowing in the opposite direction, there was no pungent smell of toxic sulfur dioxide in the air.

Shortly after the fissure opened, the Geological Survey's Hawaii Volcano Observatory said seismic activity remained "elevated" at Kilauea's 4,000-feet-high (1,200-meter-high) summit. The USGS reported a shallow but small earthquake with a magnitude of 3.5 hit the island on Saturday.

Another fissure, the 17th since the lava flows began May 3, opened about 6 p.m. local time, venting gases the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said.

Geologists warned on Friday that a steam-driven eruption from the summit's Halemaumau crater could spew ash plumes 20,000 feet (6,100 meters) high and spread ash and debris up to 12 miles (19 km).

Kilauea's vents have been oozing relatively cool, sluggish magma left over from a similar event in 1955. Fresher magma could now emerge behind it and the volcano is threatening to start a series of explosive eruptions, scientists have said.

"WE NEED TO BREATHE"

As the area affected by Kilauea's eruption widens, Hawaii residents are racing to buy respirators to cope with the ash and toxic gases spewing from the volcano.

David Baxter, 54, an employee of Pahoa Auto Parts, said the shop was selling out of respirators as soon as they get in and had sold about 3,000 so far. The shop was all out on Saturday.

"We pretty much bought up every (respirator) in the state, and we are selling them at cost - actually, a slight loss," said Baxter. "We need to breathe."

Even as the volcano continued to erupt, Hawaii Academy of Arts and Sciences, a charter middle and high school in Pahoa, will resume classes on Monday after being shut for a week.

A teacher at the school, Tiffany Edwards Hunts, who lives in the Big Island's Vacationland neighborhood, said she, her husband and two children - ages 10 and 6 - were readying to evacuate their home.

"My husband has been doing a good job of protecting them, but it is scary for kids," she said.

Some pets have been left behind as many residents have fled their homes, and the Hawaii Island Humane Society said it had rescued 16 dogs, three rabbits, four tortoises and four cats.

Almost all had been picked up by their owners, and 1,400 livestock and 32 horses had also been taken from the volcano zone, it said in a statement
