James Traficant - Americans are Prisoners of the Fed

September 29, 2014


traf.jpgAmerican Patriot, Congressman
died Saturday at age 73. He represented
Youngstown Ohio from 1985-2002
 re-elected eight times. He was framed
for "corruption" in 2002, expelled from
Congress and spent seven years in prison.

In a 1993 speech (below), he explained that
Americans had lost their freedom
because their personal property and
wealth are pledged against the national debt.
 
 
No doubt, this is the rationale behind the emergence of the US
Police State. The international bankers are ensuring they can collect. 
Terrorism is just a pretext. Just two months ago, Traficant began a
grassroots campaign "Project Freedom USA" to put people pressure
on Congress to get rid of the IRS and "divorce" the Federal Reserve.




"We are reaping what has been sown, and the results of our harvest
is a painful bankruptcy, and a foreclosure on American property,
precious liberties, and a way of life. Few of our elected representatives
in Washington, D.C. have dared to tell the truth. The federal United
States is bankrupt. Our children will inherit this unpayable debt,
and the tyranny to enforce paying it."  James Trafficant in 1993



The Bankruptcy of the United States
(Abridged by henrymakow.com)


Speaker-Rep. James Traficant, Jr. (Ohio) addressing
the House of Representative March 17, 1993:

"Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11.. Members of Congress
are official trustees presiding over the greatest reorganization of any
Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S. Government. We are setting
forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future. There are some
who say it is a coroner's report that will lead to our demise.


It is an established fact that the United States Federal Government
has been dissolved by the Emergency Banking Act, March 9, 1933,
48 Stat. 1, Public Law 89-719; declared by President Roosevelt, being
bankrupt and insolvent. H.J.R. 192, 73rd Congress m session
June 5, 1933 - Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold Standard and
Abrogate The Gold Clause dissolved the Sovereign Authority
of the United States and the official capacities of all United States
Governmental Offices, Officers, and Departments and is further evidence
that the United States Federal Government exists today in name only.

The receivers of the United States Bankruptcy are the International Bankers, via the United Nations, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. All United States Offices, Officials, and Departments are now operating within a de facto status in name only under Emergency War Powers. With the Constitutional Republican form of Government now dissolved, the receivers of the Bankruptcy have adopted a new form of government for the United States. This new form of government is known as a Democracy, being an established Socialist/Communist order under a new governor for America. This act was instituted and established by transferring and/or placing the Office of the Secretary of Treasury to that of the Governor of the International Monetary Fund. Public Law 94-564, page 8, Section H.R. 13955 reads in part: "The U.S. Secretary of Treasury receives no compensation for representing the United States.' ....


The Federal Reserve System is a sovereign power structure separate and distinct from the federal United States government. The Federal Reserve is a maritime lender, and/or maritime insurance underwriter to the federal United States operating exclusively under Admiralty/Maritime law. The lender or underwriter bears the risks, and the Maritime law compelling specific performance in paying the interest, or premiums are the same.


Assets of the debtor can also be hypothecated (to pledge something as a security without taking possession of it.) as security by the lender or underwriter. The Federal Reserve Act stipulated that the interest on thedebt was to be paid in gold. There was no stipulation in the Federal Reserve Act for ever paying the principle.


Prior to 1913, most Americans owned clear, allodial title to property, free
and clear of any liens or mortgages until the Federal Reserve Act (1913.)


"Hypothecated" all property within the federal United States to the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, -in which the Trustees
(stockholders) held legal title. The U.S. citizen (tenant, franchisee) was
registered as a "beneficiary" of the trust via his/her birth certificate. In
1933, the federal United States hypothecated all of the present and
future properties, assets and labor of their "subjects," the
14th Amendment U.S. citizen, to the Federal Reserve System.


In return, the Federal Reserve System agreed to extend the federal
United States corporation all the credit "money substitute" it needed.
Like any other debtor, the federal United States government had to
assign collateral and security to their creditors as a condition of the
loan. Since the federal United States didn't have any assets, they
assigned the private property of their "economic slaves", the U.S.
citizens as collateral against the unpayable federal debt. They also
pledged the unincorporated federal territories, national parks forests,
birth certificates, and nonprofit organizations, as collateral against
the federal debt. All has already been transferred as payment to the
international bankers.


t39__t625.jpg (Trafficant's incarceration symbolizes our own)


Unwittingly, America has returned to its pre-American
Revolution, feudal roots whereby all land is held by a
sovereign and the common people had no rights to hold
allodial title to property.
 
Once again, We the People are the tenants and sharecroppers
renting our own property from a Sovereign in the guiseof the
Federal Reserve Bank. We the people have exchanged
one master for another.


This has been going on for over eighty years without the "informed
knowledge" of the American people, without a voice protesting loud
enough. Now it's easy to grasp why
America is fundamentally bankrupt.


Why don't more people own their properties outright?


Why are 90% of Americans mortgaged to the hilt and have little or no
assets after all debts and liabilities have been paid? Why does it feel
like you are working harder and harder and getting less and less?


We are reaping what has been sown, and the results of our harvest
is a painful bankruptcy, and a foreclosure on American property, precious
liberties, and a way of life. Few of our elected representatives in
Washington, D.C. have dared to tell the truth. The federal United States
is bankrupt. Our children will inherit this unpayable debt, and the tyranny
to enforce paying it.


America has become completely bankrupt in world leadership, financial
credit and its reputation for courage, vision and human rights. This is an
undeclared economic war, bankruptcy, and economic slavery of the
most corrupt order! Wake up America! Take back your Country."

First Comment from Dan:

Traficant was still at it this summer.  You can see he was strong as
a bull and would have lived a century if he hadn't had an accident.
Tractor accidents aren't rare, but the story has lot's of red flags that can't be checked
out.   As his death is so very convenient I can only assume it was caused, though it's
pointless to suggest it because they did such a good job of making it look like bad luck.


Jim Traficant Vs ADL Attack Of Pokerface Paul
Topete Speech@Freedompalooza 3 (July 5, 2013)


Traficant was pretty well the last known voice we had
speaking out on these issues, and he'd have never stopped.

In this video, you can hear his message was that the only
way we get the country back is for all the groups to get together.
He means blacks, whites, rednecks, rich or poor.  That's exactly what media
and government has been working so hard to prevent from ever happening.

Part 2- Just found this talk by Trafficant from 2013.  He was leading an organized
investigation of Bilderberg.   He explained the way to penetrate the secrecy
is to look for tax dollars being used to fund anything to do with the meetings. 

"You've got to go beyond [protests] and you have to secure evidence," he said, as
onlookers at this year's protest site listened intently. "We're announcing that me,
Jim Traficant, in conjunction with AMERICAN FREE PRESS, will be serving on the
U.S. government only, a broad-based federal Freedom of Information Act inquiry
into the activities of Bilderberg." He then centered on this key question: Is there any
money budgeted in any federal government account, or has there been any
expenditure of public funds, that have gone, in any way, in subsidizing Bilderberg?"
 

"Therefore, citizens of nearly any nation--given what happens to nations ensnared in
Bilderberg's assault since 1954 on economic and political sovereignty--also should seek
hard evidence of their tax dollars being used for Bilderberg, since the involvement of any
public officials with Bilderberg could then more easily be questioned--
 
 
 

 

 

 

                 

The Bankruptcy of the United States;

James Traficant’s Speech



Official portrait of former congressman James ...

 

According to Wikipedia, “James Anthony Traficant, Jr. (born May 8, 1941) is a former

Democratic Representative in the United States Congress from Ohio (from 1985 to 2002).

He represented the 17th Congressional District, which centered around his hometown of

Youngstown and included parts of three counties in northeast Ohio’s Mahoning Valley.

He was expelled [from Congress] after being convicted of taking bribes, filing false tax

returns, racketeering, and forcing his aides to perform chores at his farm in Ohio and on

his houseboat in Washington, D.C., and was released from prison on September 2, 2009,

after serving a seven-year sentence.”

 

I don’t know the details or timing concerning Mr. Traficant’s conviction in A.D. 2002, but if

the criminal allegations against him were true, I would’ve expected him to have

been made Speaker of the House rather than expelled from Congress.

 

In fact, many people believe that Mr. Trafficant was ultimately tried and sentenced in

A.D. 2002 for having made an extraordinary speech in A.D. 1993 to Congress.  In that

speech, Congressman Traficant alleged 1) the U.S. government is bankrupt; 2) the

federal government was dissolved by the Emergency Banking Act of A.D. 1933; 3) the

“receivers” of the US bankruptcy were the “international bankers via

the United Nations”; and 4) the US monetary system was a fraud.

 

As I said, this was an extraordinary speech.  He was

lucky to have merely been jailed; he might’ve been shot.

 

Nevertheless, in A.D. 1993, while the speech was remarkable, the underlying idea

that the U.S. government was bankrupt and in the process of reorganization seemed

unremarkable or even false.  Everyone who bothered to study “patriot” issues back

then already knew the US government was bankrupt, but most assumed

that government would simply continue to function forever in that condition.

 

It wasn’t until A.D. 1997 that I (at least) began to suspect that Traficant was right–

sometime after A.D. 1993, the U.S. government had gone through a “reorganization”

and, astonishingly, may have ceased to exist.  I based my suspicion primarily on the

A.D. 1997 publication of the 7th Edition of Black’s Law Dictionary which deleted the

three definitions of “United States” (declared by the US Supreme Court in the Hooven

& Allison v Evatt case) that had appeared in Black’s 4th, 5th, and 6th editions, and added

a completely new definition of “United States of America” which had not been defined

in the 4th, 5th and 6th and which was completely different from the Hooven & Allison

definitions.  I can’t prove it, but I believe that the reason “United States” was missing

from the 7th (and then 8th) editions of Black’s Law Dictionary is because the

“United States” had, in fact, ceased to exist.  The impossible had taken place.  The

U.S. government had been  executed in bankruptcy–exactly as Congressman

Traficant had predicted or implied 4 years earlier in his speech to Congress.

 

There are other reasons to suspect that the U.S. government may have ceased to exist:

 

1) About the same time Black’s deleted the term “United States,” the apparent US

gov-co issued a new-and-improved currency that had a completely new design.

 The alleged purpose was to “thwart counterfeiting”.  However, I know that, at bottom,

“counterfeiting” is a copyright violation.  I speculated that the real reason for issuing a

newly designed paper dollar in the 1990s may not have been to “thwart counterfeiting”

but rather to create a new bill and a new copyright owned by whatever new entity

replaced the former (now “executed”) United States government.  If the “old” United

States had owned the copyright to the FRNs and had been executed in bankruptcy, the

“new” United States would need a new copyright which would require a

new-and-improved design.

 

2)  Federal court cases that had previously been styled “United States vs Smith” were

suddenly styled “United States of America vs. Smith”. We seemingly had a

“new-and-improved”plaintiff with a different name.

 

3) More recently, if you visit Manta.com you’ll find a list of over 63 million private corporations.

 The data for these listings is provided by Dunn & Bradstreet.  If you enter terms like

“The White House,” “House of Representatives,” “Internal Revenue Service,” and “Barack

H Obama” into the Manta.com search engine, you’ll find those entities listed as private

corporations.  We’ve found courts and state agencies also listed as private corporations.

 It appears that the constitutional governments of the United States and of the States

of the Union may have been supplanted or replaced by a conglomerate of private corporations.

 

4) The term “United States” (missing from Black’s 7th and 8th) has returned to Black’s 9th

and is currently defined as “see UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”.  In other words, today,

“United States” and “United States of America” are being defined as synonymous.  If

that’s so, the earlier Supreme Court decision in the Hooven & Allison case was

completely absurd. I don’t believe the Supreme Court was absurd in the Hooven & Allison case.

 

Again, I can’t prove it, but I’m drawn to the fantastic conclusion that the “United States

government” was executed in bankruptcy somewhere around A.D. 1995-1996

–just as Congressman Traficant predicted.

 

Here’s Congressman Traficant’s speech as reported at http://www.fourwinds10.com:

 

United States Congressional Record, March 17, 1993 Vol. 33, page H-1303.

 

Speaker-Rep. James Traficant, Jr. (Ohio) addressing the House:

 

“Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11. Members of Congress are official trustees

presiding over the greatest reorganization of any Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S.

Government. We are setting forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future.

There are some who say it is a coroner’s report that will lead to our demise.

 

It is an established fact that the United States Federal Government has been dissolved

by the Emergency Banking Act, March 9, 1933, 48 Stat. 1, Public Law 89-719;

declared by President Roosevelt, being bankrupt and insolvent. H.J.R. 192,

73rd Congress m session June 5, 1933 – Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold

Standard and Abrogate The Gold Clause dissolved the Sovereign Authority

of the United States and the official capacities of all United States Governmental

Offices, Officers, and Departments and is further evidence that

the United States Federal Government exists today in name only.

 

The receivers of the United States Bankruptcy are the International Bankers,

via the United Nations, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund.

All United States Offices, Officials, and Departments are now operating within

a de facto status in name only under Emergency War Powers. With the

Constitutional Republican form of Government now dissolved, the receivers

of the Bankruptcy have adopted a new form of government for the United

States. This new form of government is known as a Democracy, being an

established Socialist/Communist order under a new governor for America.

This act was instituted and established by transferring and/or placing the

Office of the Secretary of Treasury to that of the Governor of the International

Monetary Fund. Public Law 94-564, page 8, Section H.R. 13955 reads in part:

 

“The U.S. Secretary of Treasury receives no compensation for

representing the United States.”

 

Gold and silver were such a powerful money during the founding of the united states

of America, that the founding fathers declared that only gold or silver coins

can be “money” in America. Since gold and silver coinage were heavy and

inconvenient for a lot of transactions, they were stored in banks and a claim

check was issued as a money substitute. People traded their coupons as

money, or “currency.” Currency is not money, but a money substitute. Redeemable

currency must promise to pay a dollar equivalent in gold or silver money. Federal

Reserve Notes (FRNs) make no such promises, and are not “money.” A Federal

Reserve Note is a debt obligation of the federal United States government, not

“money.” The federal United States government and the U.S. Congress were

not and have never been authorized by the Constitution for the united states of

America to issue currency of any kind, but only lawful money, gold and silver coin.

 

It is essential that we comprehend the distinction between real money and

paper money substitute. One cannot get rich by accumulating money substitutes,

one can only get deeper into debt. We the People no longer have any “money.”

Most Americans have not been paid any “money” for a very long time,

perhaps not in their entire life. Now do you comprehend why you feel broke?

Now, do you understand why you are “bankrupt,” along with the rest of the country?

 

Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs) are unsigned checks written on a closed account.

FRNs are an inflatable paper system designed to create debt through inflation (devaluation

of currency). when ever there is an increase of the supply of a money substitute in the

economy without a corresponding increase in the gold and silver backing, inflation occurs.

 

Inflation is an invisible form of taxation that irresponsible governments inflict on

their citizens. The Federal Reserve Bank who controls the supply and movement

of FRNs has everybody fooled. They have access to an unlimited supply of FRNs,

paying only for the printing costs of what they need. FRNs are nothing more than

promissory notes for U.S. Treasury securities (T-Bills) – a promise to pay the debt to the

Federal Reserve Bank.

 

There is a fundamental difference between “paying” and “discharging” a debt.

To pay a debt, you must pay with value or substance (i.e. gold, silver, barter or

a commodity). With FRNs, you can only discharge a debt. You cannot pay a debt

with a debt currency system. You cannot service a debt with a currency that has no

backing in value or substance. No contract in Common law is valid unless it involves an

exchange of “good & valuable consideration.” Unpayable debt transfers power and control

to the sovereign power structure that has no interest in money,

law, equity or justice because they have so much wealth already.

 

Their lust is for power and control. Since the inception of

central banking, they have controlled the fates of nations.

 

The Federal Reserve System is based on the Canon law and the principles of sovereignty

protected in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. In fact, the international bankers used

a “Canon Law Trust” as their model, adding stock and naming it a “Joint Stock Trust.” The

U.S. Congress had passed a law making it illegal for any legal “person” to duplicate a “Joint

Stock Trust” in 1873. The Federal Reserve Act was legislated post-facto (to 1870),

although post-facto laws are strictly forbidden by the Constitution. [1:9:3]

 

The Federal Reserve System is a sovereign power structure separate and distinct

from the federal United States government. The Federal Reserve is a maritime lender,

and/or maritime insurance underwriter to the federal United States operating

exclusively under Admiralty/Maritime law. The lender or underwriter bears the risks,

and the Maritime law compelling specific performance

in paying the interest, or premiums are the same.

 

Assets of the debtor can also be hypothecated (to pledge something as a

security without taking possession of it.) as security by the lender or underwriter.

The Federal Reserve Act stipulated that the interest on the debt was to be

paid in gold. There was no stipulation in the Federal Reserve Act

for ever paying the principle.

 

Prior to 1913, most Americans owned clear title to property, free and

clear of any liens or mortgages until the Federal Reserve Act of 1913

 

“Hypothecated” all property within the federal United States to the Board of Governors

of the Federal Reserve, -in which the Trustees (stockholders) held legal title. The U.S.

citizen (tenant, franchisee) was registered as a “beneficiary” of the trust via his/her

birth certificate. In 1933, the federal United States hypothecated all of the present

and future properties, assets and labor of their “subjects,” the

14th Amendment U.S. citizen, to the Federal Reserve System.

 

In return, the Federal Reserve System agreed to extend the federal United States

the federal United States government had to assign collateral and security to

their creditors as a condition of the loan. Since the federal United States didn’t

the U.S. citizens as collateral against the unpayable federal debt. They also pledged

the unincorporated federal territories, national parks forests, birth certificates,

and nonprofit organizations, as collateral against the federal debt. All

We are reaping what has been sown, and the results of our harvest is a painful bankruptcy,

and a foreclosure on American property, precious liberties, and a way of life. Few of our

elected representatives in Washington, D.C. have dared to tell the truth. The federal

United States is bankrupt. Our children will inherit this unpayable debt, and the tyranny

to enforce paying it.

 

America has become completely bankrupt in world leadership, financial credit and its

reputation for courage, vision and human rights. This is an undeclared economic war,

bankruptcy, and economic slavery of the most corrupt order! Wake up America!

Take back your Country.” [emphasis added]

 

 

 

 


 

 

Was Jim Traficant Murdered?

• No immediate evidence suggests Jim was the victim of foul play, but a pathologist

wants to examine all possibilities before releasing final ruling on cause of death.

 

By Pete Papaherakles

 

After the tragic death of Jim Traficant on September 27, the phones at AMERICAN FREE

PRESS began ringing off the hook with calls from Jim’s fans wanting to find out more

information. Most callers were devastated by the news and seemed to feel that Jim had

been murdered. Although there is no real proof of such a conspiracy, the

overwhelming majority of the callers was convinced this was the case.

 

At this time, there doesn’t seem to be any concrete evidence of foul play. However, the

possibility cannot be ruled out, as there are several anomalies with the official story that

need to be examined.


 

The people who directly witnessed the incident are being suspiciously tight-lipped about

what occurred. Andrew Thomson, the only eyewitness to the accident and the one to call

9-1-1, is not giving any interviews and even wanted his identity concealed. All interested

parties have is Thomson’s 9-1-1 call saying Jim was pinned under the overturned

tractor and didn’t appear to be breathing.

 

Perhaps the most important news has come from the Mahoning County Coroner’s Office,

which reported that the cause of Jim’s death was positional asphyxia,

meaning Jim was pinned in such a way that he could not breathe.

 

According to forensic pathologist Dr. Joseph S. Ohr, Jr., who completed the autopsy on 

September 29, Jim never suffered a heart attack prior to the accident, as was widely

rumored, nor was there any trace of drugs or alcohol in his system. More significant was

Ohr’s finding that Jim had “no crushing injuries” to his body, as was reported from

 

sources at the hospital.

 

The official story is that Jim’s tractor ran over a “blade” or scraper and the front end

was elevated to the point that it flipped backward. Jim remained fixed on his seat as the

tractor swung 180º over him. Being that the seat was lower than the top of the wheels

and the top of the engine cover, Jim was compressed enough to restrict his breathing

but somehow was not crushed by the one-and-half-ton tractor crashing on him.

 

Although Jim’s breathing appeared to have stopped due to the accident, after CPR was

administered he began breathing on his own, and his heart was also beating on its own.

The life support machines were only there as a backup.  Traficant never regained

consciousness, however. His wife believed that Jim was already “brain dead” when the

EMS got to him. “The brain can only go six minutes without oxygen,” she said, “and

Jim went for seven-10 minutes before he got CPR; therefore, he is brain dead.”

 

Jim was breathing on his own even after he was taken off a backup respirator on September

26, and his heart was beating on its own. He was even snoring, according to family

spokesperson Heidi Hanni.

 

“But there was no hope” of recovery, Hanni said. Jim was transported from St. Elizabeth Health Center

in Youngstown to the Hospice of the Valley on September 26 “to make him as comfortable

as possible,” according to Hanni. Jim died at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, September 27.

 

On September 30, WKBN Ohio’s channel 27 said “family spokesperson Heidi Hanni confirmed

that Jim Traficant’s remains have been cremated. Heidi Hanni confirmed that

the cremation happened after a private family service Monday morning.”

 

The Vindicator, Youngstown’s local newspaper, reported that

Traficant was actually buried on Monday morning.

 

Both of these seem to be wrong, however, as the coroner did not

complete the autopsy until 5:30 p.m. on Monday afternoon.

 

The circumstances at the hospital, the hospice and the burial are somewhat vague, especially

in light of the coroner’s report. But even stranger is how the tractor flipped over. It is difficult

to visualize how Jim, who was well acquainted with the tractor, the terrain and the barn,

presumably traveling at low speed on flat ground, could have capsized like this. Both the

barn and the tractor had lights on, yet Jim must have not seen a fairly large object.

 

tractorRS

 

Although he reportedly had all his wits about him, Jim was unable to stop the tractor once

he hit the object, and forged ahead forcefully enough to climb over the blade and flip the

tractor. Even so, the blade was no taller than a foot and a half or so. How could it

have caused the front of the tractor to rise high enough to flip over backward?

 

Ohr told this reporter that there’s been much speculation that something other than an

accident may be to blame, given how careful a driver Traficant was. He wants to investigate

further by examining the tractor and the EMS report that was taken at the time of the incident.

He would also like to talk to Traficant’s trauma surgeon before making a final ruling on the

cause of death.

Traficant’s Legacy Lives in Project Freedom

By Jim Condit

 

When word got out that Jim Traficant, America’s most courageous officeholder of our

generation, was in a serious mishap on his family farm and then that he had died the next

day—to say that it was a shock is the understatement of the year. This certainly goes for

myself, as I had been privileged to ride with Jim to and from his last several speeches over

the last six months. A few mental snapshots from what would turn out to be

my last hours with Jim . . .

 

On an 11-hour trip to Youngstown, Ohio, on September 17, I drove for the first nine hours

with Jim staying awake the entire time helping me navigate. A little past Columbus, it was

daylight, so Jim took over, but told me I would have to stay awake in the passenger’s seat.

That was easy with Jim telling me stories about his time in Congress. When he was

recalling stories, as when he walked onto a stage, Jim was back in his prime, animated,

eloquent and seemingly ageless. I think he loved telling those stories almost as much

as we loved listening to them.



  We got home on September 19, and a week later
James Anthony Traficant, Jr. was dead.
 
 
 

Always bigger than life, Jim was a great leader, a true political martyr and a folk hero. As

his longtime acquaintance Don Hanni said on a 1991 edition of “60 Minutes,” “If Traficant

walks into a room and speaks to 10,000 blue collar workers, when he leaves, 9,999 of them will be on his side.”

Where now? The consensus is that all of us must carry on PROJECT FREEDOM USA

with the Traficant spirit, as best we can. He is and was the very symbol of righteous defiance

of tyranny. We need to look to him as our symbol. Jim’s story is that of the fight for America.

If you want a lift in spirit and in resolve, search for the newly released, moving,

six-minute YouTube video by Mike Wayne, titled “James Traficant—A Tribute.”

“Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” was a movie, but

Mr. Traficant goes to Washington—that was real history.
