”Sovereignty itself is, of course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of law; but in our system, while sovereign powers are delegated to the agencies of government, sovereignty itself remains with the people, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts. And the law is the definition and limitation of power.” – Yick Wo V. Hopkins – Supreme Court 118 U.S. 356 (1886).
”People are supreme, not the State.“ -Waring vs. the Mayor of Savannah, 60 Georgia at 93.
“The people of the State do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them. The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created.” -(Added Stats. 1953, c. 1588, p.3270, sec. 1.)
“The people are the recognized source of all authority, state or municipal, and to this authority it must come at last, whether immediately or by circuitous route.” -Barnes v. District of Columbia, 91 U.S. 540, 545 [23: 440, 441]. p 234.
“The govenment is but an agency the State — the State being the sovereign people.” -State vs. Chase, 175 Minn, 259, 220 N.W. 951, 953.
“The rights of the individual are not derived from governmental agencies, either municipal, state, or federal, or even from the Constitution. They exist inherently in every man, by endowment of the Creator, and are merely reaffirmed in the Constitution, and restricted only to the extent that they have been voluntarily surrendered by the citizenship to the agencies of government. The people’s rights are not derived from the government, but the government’s authority comes from the people. The Constitution but states again these rights already existing, and when legislative encroachment by the nation, state, or municipality invade these original and permanent rights, it is the duty of the courts to so declare, and to afford the necessary relief.” -City of Dallas, et al. vs. Mitchell, 245 S. W. 944, 945-46 (1922).
“A constitution is designed as a supreme enactment, a fundamenal act of legislation by the people of the State. A constitution is legislation direct from the people acting in their sovereign capacity, while a statute is legislation from their representatives, subject to limitations prescribed by the superior authority.” -Ellingham v. Dye, 178 Ind. 336; NE 1; 231 U.S. 250; 58 L. Ed. 206; 34 S. Ct. 92; Sage vs. New York, 154 NY 61; 47 NE 1096.
“It is not the function of our government to keep the citizen from falling into error, it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error.” –American Communications Association vs. Dauds, 339 U.S. 382, 442, (1950)
******
I was naturally born on the great state of Texas, which is one of the sovereign States of the Union of several States joined together compromising the Confederation known as the United States of America.
Currently, I am a state National of the state of Texas. My Declaration of Political Status is that I have returned to my lawful birthright political status as a Texan. I claim my exemptions as stated in Federal Code 8 USC 1101 (a) 21.
Let’s be clear that I am not a “Territorial United States Citizen” nor a “Municipal Citizen” nor a “US citizen” nor any other sub-category of human. I am a living human of the land jurisdiction of America under Common Law, but I am also learning to operate in the Air and Sea jurisdictions as well (as I comprehend the importance of operating in all 3 jurisdictions).
I am an entirely separate entity from MICHAEL SETH BROGDON and also MICHAEL S BROGDON and all other trusts or corporations created using my name. My name “MICHAEL SETH BROGDON” is the only variation of my name that I accept for my trust of which I am an agent for – trademark for my trust name is currently pending.
All this semantic bullshit is so annoying.
I, Michael-Seth:Brogdon, a living man above the age of 21, a declared American State National of Texas, of sound body and mind, do affirm and declare that I responsibly exercise my right to bear arms as a peaceful private LIVING American. In fulfilling my duty to uphold the public law and keep the peace (and prevent criminals from spoiling all my fun), I will utilize weapons through visible OR concealed carry AS IS APPROPRIATE.
The Constitution is a putting of God’s word into paper and my right to bear arms is not contingent or based upon a piece of paper, it is based on my bond with God. I do not recognize a human’s interpretation of the law of God and the Constitution is not what “gives me the right” to bear arms.
Anyone detaining me for any situation that does not violate Common Law will be liened if I believe it is the right thing to do (unless of course I am operating in a strictly commercial situation and the situation fits within the UCC).
I realize that many people involved in the “sovereign movement” can be abrasive. I don’t fit that category and I believe that the only reason people get upset/emotional is because they are lacking knowledge. The more one studies and the more one learns, the calmer they get.
I have no bone to pick with “law” enforcement (policy Any interaction I may have with U.S. Marshals will be met with terrific support from me and I am more than willing to be deputized by U.S. Marshals as! Same goes for the sheriff’s office. Sheriff’s offices and U.S. Marshals have my full and total support. Thank you for what you do!
The use of “permits” or “licenses”, etc will only be used by my TRUST that was created when my parents signed my birth certificate (cestui que vie) and I am an AGENT of that trust. “MICHAEL SETH BROGDON” and “MICHAEL S BROGDON” and any other variation of my name used or incorporated has no business being my “person” without a detailed and EXACTING breakdown of evidence proving my name as the object of sanity, creativity, communication, etc.
I AM THE BENEFICIARY OF MY CESTUI QUE VIE TRUST ACCOUNT AND ANYTHING OR ANYONE ASSUMING ME TO BE THE TRUSTEE IS TRUST FRAUD.
ANY PRESENTMENT, STATEMENT, ETC WILL BE MET WITH A CONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE TO VERIFY WHAT “PERSON” YOU ARE TECHNICALLY WRITING TOO. VAGUE COMMUNICATIONS WILL BE MET WITH CONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCES WITH CLAIMS OF LIEN.
Or I may just keep it simple and use the De Reimer process.
Please don’t waste my time.
I don’t mind the fact that my name is a trust. There is nothing I can do about that. But only the trust needs “permits” or “licenses.”
[I have updated my driver’s license with a reservation of rights, a human signature and a title designation as AGENT FOR THE TRUST. This is public notice that I am an agent of the trust and I very rarely drive a vehicle in the capacity of commerce. All my driving is for a personal reason and the transporting of myself and sometimes others in a personal and PRIVATE capacity. Unless I am harming others or damaging the property of others (violating Common Law), my rights as a live human should not be violated while I am changing and clarifying my status with the state and federal government. I also now have my “State Citizen / U.S. National” passport and I will be using that for all non-commerce traveling in my private automobile. Any victimless crimes will be met with a Conditional Acceptance of ANY presentment.] — This section is not yet true for myself, but I’m including it for educational purposes.
I am not a “person” or a trust, I am a living spiritual entity inhabiting a body. I am not a “resident” or “citizen.” My mail is marked as non-domestic and I will be using the 4-corners rule on the ZIP code. If I send mail it is most likely being sent from a location in the 50 states.)
I am a “non-resident alien” and I am a FOREIGN ENTITY to the federal government. I am mostly operating in the Air (trust) jurisdiction. I am not using the Air jurisdiction in an attempt to avoid the law. I am legitimately a Godly man and doing God’s work. My trust is simply a bond with God. THIS WEBSITE IS EVIDENCE TO THE FACT THAT I AM DOING THE WORK OF GOD AS I AM SHARING THE INFORMATION I AM FINDING AT NO CHARGE TO HELP EMPOWER SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE MOST HIGH.
I do not reside in “United States,” and my status obtains its exclusive legislative authority and jurisdiction from Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17 and Article 4, Section 3, Clause 2, of the Constitution for the United States of America.
Both of my parents were sovereigns, born on sovereign states of the Union.
As a child of sovereign parents: “…one of the sovereign people; a constituent member of the sovereignty synonymous with the people.” —Scott v. Sanford, 19 How. 404.
I am an alien to so-called “14th Amendment United States citizen” and non-resident to so-called “Amendment State Residency.” I am a “non-resident alien” in respect to both. I am an “American Inhabitant.”
The Internal Revenue Code (Title 26, United States Code) and associated federal regulations, clearly and thoroughly make provision for Americans born and living within one of the 50 Sovereign States of America. 26 CFR 1.871-4 section a – covers what evidences prove that an alien has acquired residence. Section b states that an alien, by reason of his alienage, is presumed to be a nonresident alien (of which I am).
I was not born or naturalized in the “United States,” so I am not a “citizen of the United States” nor a “United States citizen,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
26 CFR 1.1-1 covers who exactly is a citizen. I am not a citizen. I’m not a “United States citizen living abroad.” I am not a “resident alien residing within the geographical boundaries of the United States.” I am not a “United States person,” a “domestic corporation,” “estate,” “trust,” “fiduciary,” or “partnership.” I am not an “officer,” “employee,” or “elected official” of the “United States” or a “State” or of any political subdivision thereof, nor of the District of Columbia, nor of any agency or instrumentality of one or more of the foregoing, not an “officer” of a “United States corporation,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I receive no “income with respect to employment” from any sources within the territorial jurisdiction of the “United States” and I don’t have an “office or other fixed place of business” within the “United States” from which I derive any “income” or “wages.”
I have never engaged in the conduct of a “trade” or “business” within the “United States,” nor do I receive any “income” or other remuneration effectively connected with the conduct of a “trade” or “business” within the “United States,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I receive no “income,” “wages,” “self-employment income” or “other remuneration” from sources within the “United States,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
All remuneration paid to me is for services rendered outside (without) the exclusive territorial, political and legislative jurisdiction and authority of the “United States.”
I’ve never had an “office” or “place of business” within the “United States,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I’ve never been a “United States employee,” nor “employer,” nor “employee” which also includes but is not limited to an “employee” and/or “employer” for a “United States household,” and/or “agricultural” activity, as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I’ve never been involved in commerce within the territorial jurisdiction of the “United States” involving “alcohol,” “tobacco” and “firearms” and Title 16, Subtitle D and E excises and privileged occupations, as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I have never been a “United States” “withholding agent” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I have no liability for any type, kind, or class of Federal Income Tax in past years, and I was and am entitled to a full and complete refund of any amounts withheld, because any liability asserted and amounts withheld were premised upon a mutual mistake or facts regarding my status.
I’ve never knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily changed my Citizenship status nor have I ever knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily elected to be treated as a “resident” of the “United States.”
I, to the best of my knowledge, owe no “tax” of any type, class or kind to the “United States,” as those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code (26 USC) and/or Title 27 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
I have never, by means or knowingly intelligent acts done with sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances and consequences (Brandy v. US, 397 US 742, 748 (1970)), agreed or consented to be given a federal Social Security Number (SSN), same said as to a federal Employee Identification Number (EIN) and therefore waives and releases from liability the “United States” and any State of the Union of 50 States, for any present or future benefits that I may be entitled to claim under the Old-Age Survivors and the Disability Insurance Act and/or the Federal Unemployment tax Act, which are and remain in force with respect to the artificial corporate entity established in my upper-case name.
I am not “within the United States” but lawfully am “without the United States” (per Title 28, USC, Section 1746, Subsection 1), and therefore I have no standing capacity to sign any tax form which displays the perjury clause pursuant to Title 28, Section 1746, Subsection 2.
IMPORTANT NOTE: At no time will I construe any of the foregoing terms defined within the Internal Revenue Code, Title 16, United States Code, or within any of the other United State Codes, in a metaphorical sense. When terms are not words of art and are explicitly defined within the Code and/or within a Statute, I rely at all times upon the clear language of the terms as they are defined therein; no more and no less.
”When aid to construction of the meaning of words, as used in the statute, is available, there certainly can be no “rule of law” which forbids its use however clear the words may appear on “superficial examination.””—United States v. American Trucking Association, 310 US 534, 543, 533 (1939).
I do get that it’s ONLY my responsibility to research my own rights and to use them. This means I will be learning how to operate fluidly between all 3 jurisdictions of the law (Air, Land and Water). Please give me time to be able to do this as it is not going to happen overnight.
I get that the registration of voting links me to being a “US citizen” and I have already cancelled my voter registration as of 15 July, 2022. I will NOT be voting in state or federal elections and I openly denounce being a part of that system. [I have also updated my “driver’s license” with the fact that I am not a “US citizen.”]– I have not done this myself yet, but I will.
I do not make “income” and I do not operate in “commerce” constantly (I’m doing commerce when I’m doing commerce and I’m not doing commerce when I’m not. Sad that this even has to be said). I do not need the “help” of the “court systems,” etc. I will not be doing any jury duty in tribunals and will only be doing Grand Jury work in the capacity of Common Law.
Federal Reserve Notes are not money, by definition… they are NOTES. If I have any in my possession it is private property… not “money” or “income” or any other manufactured idea labeled on me based on me being a volunteer employee of the federal government. None of it is “privileged” either.
I am not a “volunteer employee of the federal government.” The “federal government” is a private for-profit organization ACTING as though it is government and I will have no part of that. In fact, I am severing ALL ties (legally and lawfully) and connections I have to this organization and my power to install true government in Common Law is exactly what I am doing. I have not knowingly entered into any valid agreements of “voluntary servitude.” The future is one of God’s rule, Common Law, etc.
The creating of bonds is an act of commerce… I will not argue about this point. BOND PRODUCTION EQUALS COMMERCE, NOT “GOVERNMENT.”
I have no problem with police. I will act towards police as they are children of God. I am a shepherd, not a warmonger. Police will be educated by me and if I am detained or something happens then I will be giving them books, showing up at their precinct, etc. I would like to help them do their job better and there are many aspects of police that is greatly appreciated for their service.
I live in Texas but my official “domicile” is non-specific, as I am a sojourn of the land. I currently identify as a Texas state National but that may or may not continue. I have no “allegiance” to the insane “leadership” of Texas so I will not be supporting that system in any way.
I am in the process of clarifying my passport, mailing affidavits in to clarify my status, etc, and I will need probably into mid-2023 to complete everything.
I’m not mad/upset about all the stuff going on here. Negative feelings have never helped a situation (have they?). So if anyone is reading this from any police or law enforcement agency, realize that I’m not really going to be angry or upset. You’re more than willing to contact me and I’ll be more than happy to talk or educate you. Thanks for doing what you do.
”Public servant,” by definition, would be the trustee (what else would it be?). I assume the position of beneficiary and I deeply appreciate the services given or offered to me that truly benefit me 🙂
I do not waive my rights and I explicitly reserve my rights in all experiences. All current contracts that I am aware or unaware of are null and void (vitiated) from their inception if there were ANY aspect of the contract that I wasn’t aware of when I “agreed.”
“Wavers of Constitutional Rights not only must be voluntary, but must be knowingly intelligent acts done with sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances and likely consequences.” –Supreme Court case Brady vs United States, 397 U.S. 742, 748 (1970)
“an intentional perversion of truth for the purpose of inducing another (individual), in reliance upon it, to part with some valuable things belonging to him or to surrender a legal right. A false representation of a matter of fact, whether by words or by contract, by false or misleading allegations, or by concealment of that which should have been disclosed, which deceives and is intended to deceive another so that he shall act upon it to his legal injury.” — Fraud definition from Black’s Law 6th Edition.
“Constructive fraud as well as actual fraud may be the basis of cancellation of an instrument.” — El Paso Natural Gas Co. vs Kysar Insurance Co., 605 Pacific 2nd. 240 (1979).
