National Status and Passport with Daniel Mentz - January 15, 2026

My name is Clint Greece and I want to welcome you to Commoner Law Group's special presentation about national status and passport with our special presenter Daniel Menz of the Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship.

Our commitment to you tonight is that you learn everything you need to know about whether you want to take a next step in pursuing a change of your status from a US citizen to a national. And you're going to learn all about what that means. We're even going to do some compare and contrast with some other procedures or processes that might be familiar to some of you. And we're going to talk about the kinds of benefits, material benefits that you can achieve if you choose to invest your time and energy in learning this process and going through it. You will get some concrete material benefit out of it as well as a spiritual benefit of just exiting the B system and knowing that you yourself are not participating. And then we will be having some question answer toward the end. So again, thanks everyone for being here. I really appreciate you taking the time out to come and hear this wonderful presentation.

Daniel spent an additional amount of time working to create a custom presentation just for the Commoner Law Group knowing that our folks are on the whole already ahead of the game. Uh, you've amongst the folks here tonight are uh people who have already studied this topic area quite a lot and even have taken some actions and have gotten results. And so we've got a customized presentation for you. So Daniel, I thank you for taking your time to come be with us tonight and share your expertise. You've been you've been at this for years now. I mean, you have some very deep experience and you've worked with so many students now. You must know about so many different kinds of people taking this on in all kinds of different situations and getting all kinds of different results and benefits out of it. So maybe just share a little bit about what what got you into this, how long you've been doing it, and maybe some of the miracles that you've seen in your years.

>> Well, thank you first of all, Clint, for having me and the fellowship here at the Common Law Group. It's a great pleasure and honor. You know, I've been following your work since you started basically. So it's been a it's been quite a journey and like I said it's a great honor to be here. So um how I got into this is sort of part of the the presentation at one point but um just in a nutshell I had my big awakening in 2020 obviously I think as many of us did. I just in in a nutshell basically I started asking deeper questions about this reality uh specifically not just specifically about government but that was obviously a big point you know how can they do this in supposedly the freest nation on earth where we have a very clear constitution and bill of rights and they just trample all over it and arrest people for not wearing a mask and shutting down their businesses for not following the you know the nonsense. So I was like, how are they getting away with all of this? Right? And there's no repercussion. And uh I really to be honest with you, I was I was asking God like why why how can they do this? What's what is happening here? I wanted to know. And in the pursuit of truth um I wanted to know the answer. And so another long story short, I came across an interview by Roger Sales. And actually the man who introduced me to Roger Sales is on the call. I saw him join earlier. Um so that basically then changed my life forever because it gave me a huge chunk of the answer why they can do this um first of all but then you know with that came this whole other world that opened up that is the private remedy world you know equity land patents trusts you name it and so I was like oh my god there's this whole other hidden world that very few people know about, but that's where a lot of the remedies lie, a lot of the solutions lie that we need, especially right now. Right. So, that's sort of the the origin story of how I got into all this.

>> Well, thank you for pursuing the truth and knowing that that was what there needs to be done. I love it. You're you're my fellow traveler in that way.

>> Yeah. Thank you. It's a fun journey. It's not always easy, but certainly worthwhile.

>> All right. Well, I know you've taken a lot of time to put together a presentation for us.

>> Let me just get started here. This is going to be a presentation on the national status and passport pathway from the Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship. And we have several pathways. In fact, we have four pathways and national status is just one of them. I'll talk about the other pathways maybe at the end, but um this is primarily today focused on status or status correction as some people refer to it or as many people refer to it actually. And so, um, yeah, I'll just do my best today to give you the high points, the facts as much as I can so that you can make an informed decision and look up some of the stuff yourself so that the information becomes yours and not just mine. You know, that's really how we spread this thing is we have to undo the programming that has been instilled in our minds in regards to, you know, status, legal versus lawful, what our rights are, where they come from. All information presented is provided for informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute legal, tax, or financial advice.

So, the overview of what we're going to be exploring today, you're going to get an introduction to the first and original, I like to say the OG status correction process that has been put into action and has been perfected since 2007 with a total combined 90 plus years of research and knowledge. So this is not something that you know we just came up over the last 10 years or so or since 2020. Um, this has been well researched, well documented and as as I said put into action um for many many years now. And um the knowledge and the research that backs all this up is you know the work of three men's lives basically and then there are several people many people that are bringing this knowledge forward carrying it forward. I'm just one of many. And so that's really basically what this whole um presentation is based on today. And I'm going to give you a holistic picture of quote unquote status correction as much as I can. Honestly, I don't like the term status correction anymore. You know, it has been so overused and there's so much hype and so much fake um hype around it as well. And a lot of people are in the space and they're saying a status correction here and there. Um, but really what happens is that you know when when we say status correction it hints at something that something might be incorrect when in fact it's flatout fraud and deception and mind control really what we're dealing with. So you're really just changing your relationship your individual relationship with the legal system with government whatever you want to call it. So that's really all that happens. you're changing your relationship to that entity called government. Uh, so I'm going to give you the high points and facts. These are not going to be all of the high points and all the facts, but I'm going to give you some of the most compelling that, like I said, you can go and look up for yourself so you start to see the puzzle pieces come together. And as Clint mentioned, I'm going to give you some concrete use cases. I'm going to show you some real life proof. Uh, some of which, um, our students um, our members have brought forward. And then um, we also have a free ebook if you'd like to learn more about everything.

Okay, so a bit about me. Um, I'm an ex-Hollywood filmmaker. I saw the industry for what it really is um after doing um a passion project of mine that was actually well received by the um, the film festival circuit. Anyway, I saw what the industry is really all about, what they really what kind of content they really want to put out. And so I was like, nah, this is not what I signed up for. this is not what I want to do with my life anymore. And so I left and um in I did you know other things like here and there online entrepreneurship blah blah blah but I didn't really know what I wanted to do. So, in 2019, I saw a presentation. I was actually working on a script idea and I uh it was sort of like a futuristic um screenplay around like dystopian future. And so, I was like, "Okay, so who is kind of the the guy you should go to when you're talking about futuristic dystopian conspiracy theories?" And I came across David. I was like, "Okay, whatever. I'm going to watch it." And it completely shifted. I mean, it it really kicked my ass. um because he as I'm sure many of you have seen his work he completely um changed my worldview about a lot of things you I remember actually watching the after the first DVD I had to take a walk uh around my neighborhood just to get some fresh air and just to uh just process everything and then like I said in 2020 I had my big awakening I was like oh my god David Ike was actually right this is all happening and now we're at the beginning stages or at the end stages whichever way you want to look at And I was asking deeper questions, how can they do this? And then I came came across an interview with Roger Sales um that changed my life forever. This is um what Roger actually calls, you know, life two, life number two. Once you come across this information and you realize what's going on. And then in 2022, I met fellowship founder and director Michael Joseph. And he was looking for someone to uh teach status correction for his fellowship community. um he had heard uh the he heard about the Roger Sales process and only good things about it, but he never met anyone that actually had put it into practice and can also teach it. So long story short, that's how we ended up together and became partners. And then my drive and mission really is to be a signal in the noise of all the confusion. Because if you've looked into the space at all, you know that there are so many different opinions, so many different movements, groups, individuals, all calling the status correction one thing or another. And I'll I'll touch on that as well. And I do a deep dive in the ebook about all that as well. But my mission is really to to um to clear the noise, to be um cohesive and clear about what status correction is and how it actually works in a legal and lawful way with proof. Everything is backed up by proof.

So this brings me to everything is verifiable. Everything you're going to see today is verifiable. We use nothing but standing case law, official policy documents, their own law books, and historical evidence. And we encourage you to verify everything for yourself. Of course, because your freedom is not in the paper or in the passport you're going to get. Your freedom is in your mind because that's where they've trapped us. That's where they've enslaved us. And that's where we have to free ourselves. I also like to say your freedom is in your mind as well as your heart. Because as if you decide to go down this path, you're going to um recognize and realize a lot of subconscious fears that um were programmed into you since childhood basically um that are really artificial. So there there's stuff you don't have to be afraid of like these paper tigers for example. Um, you know the mail you get in your mailbox. Um, but before we begin, please be aware that there are many other quote unquote status correction movements out there who teach wrong or incomplete information. And we want to make sure that um it's clear we have no affiliation with them. We are not state nationals. We're not American nationals. We're not American state nationals. And we're definitely not sovereign citizens. We are simply nationals as there is a clear official definition for that which I'm going to show you. there is none for these other terms. And like I said, I'm I'm I did a deep dive into all these movements, how they operate, and what they do uh in the ebook.

So, US citizens are property, nationals/state citizens are not. Which do you want to be? And here are four Supreme Court decisions over the last century that very clearly uh spell out what's going on. So I'm going to read all of them uh quickly so that um you can follow along and read along if you like. Jones v.mer 1993. The privileges and immunities clause of the 14th amendment protects very few rights because it neither incorporates the bill of rights nor protects all rights of individual citizens. Instead, this provision protects only those rights peculiar to being a citizen of the federal government. It does not protect those rights which relate to state citizenship. Next one. US v. Valentine 1968. The only absolute and unqualified right of United States citizenship is to residence within the territorial boundaries of the United States. So there you go. The only rights US citizen have is to reside. Supreme Court uh Colgate v. Harvey 1935. The governments of the United States and of each of the several states are distinct from one another. The rights of a citizen under one may be quite different from those which he has under the other. So clearly delineating um the rights between federal citizenship and state citizenship. Again without actually um openly stating that but the these others have another one uh Madden v. Kentucky 1940 rights of federal citizenship as distinct from the fundamental or natural rights inherent in state citizenship.

So, one question I like to pose here right now um before we move on, there's more, but uh one thing I like to ask to people who are first exposed to these major Supreme Court decisions is, you know, if you've grown up here and, you know, you you go into high school and college and you learn about government and blah blah blah, obviously there's two very distinct statuses of citizenship in this country. And the question is why have you never heard about state citizenship when clearly the Supreme Court has told us at least four times that there is such a thing and that they have very different rights. Right? So the last one here natural rights. Now we're talking about natural law. That's the highest law of the universe. So whatever the state citizenship is enjoys inherent natural rights. That's huge. Then we have a few more. Kitchens v. Steel 1953. A citizen of the United States is a 14th amendment citizen of the federal government. Then we have Belmont v. Town of Gulport from 1929. Taxpayers are not state citizens. Or you could flip it around and say state citizens are not taxpayers. We'll talk about that also a bit later. US v. Slater 1982. Unless the defendant can establish that he is not a citizen of the United States, the IRS possesses authority to attempt to determine his federal tax liability.

So, I know it's a little confusing to say, you know, quote unquote, prove that he is not a citizen of the United States without mentioning the other thing, which is state citizenship. Okay, but there you have it. So, doesn't get any clearer than that. And again, why have you never heard about these cases?

So, let's get some commoner ground. You see what I did there? Just for you. >> Good job. >> Let's get some commoner ground. The whole matrix is built on dialectics. This is a very important word. If you take nothing away from this uh presentation today, I hope it is this dialectics because it runs the entire system. It runs the world really and it certainly runs our governments. Dialectics and we'll we'll talk about exactly what that means. So a simple concept we would like you to just wrap your mind around. You are either free or you are a slave, right? I think we can all agree on that. There's no in between. You can't be like a part-time free and part-time slave. We could replace the the word slave with the word bond because bond is also the root word of bondage. Okay. So, let's take it a step further. Here's the equation dialectics definition. A fallacy, that's how it starts, my friends. A fallacy, depending on the double meaning of a word, the use of ambiguous expressions, especially in order to mislead. Especially in order to mislead. So if dialectics runs the world and the world is in great chaos, I mean maybe it's always been, but certainly since 2020 and it's becoming more ridiculous every day, one thing you'll notice when you really um wrap your mind around dialectics and start to see it everywhere, you're going to see it in the news, you're going to see it on social media, you're going to see it in government, in in you know newspapers, in media all over the place, certainly in law. I mean, legal ease. That is the perfect example of dialectics. Legalese. For those of you who have a Black's Law Dictionary and you've looked up the word person in Black's Law Dictionary, you know what I'm talking about. Okay? So, there's I don't know like dozens and dozens and dozens often conflicting definitions for person.

So now the question is are you a citizen of the United States or are you a citizen of the United States of America? One position is free and the other is federal property of the United States corporation under the 14th amendment. So right we've heard all of our lives citizen of the United States. Well okay but why don't they call it a citizen of the United States of America? Because United States of America is the name of the country. That's the name of the nation. So why aren't they calling it the full term citizen of the United States of America? No. They always call citizen of the United States. So would they be doing this for, you know, convenience or abbreviation? I don't think so. And I'm going to prove it to you. But before we get to that, let's take a brief look at pre-Civil War America. First of all, why is there such little information and education about pre-Civil War times? Right? When you go to school, you learn about the Civil War obviously, right? And then you learn from learn about Civil War and everything that happened after really is where most of history lessons are spent. Yeah. You'll probably find out about the um Revolutionary War, right? But the the the time between Revolutionary War and the Civil War, it's sort of like obscure. No one really talks about it mostly, right? From what I've seen. And even when you want to start doing some research into that period of time, there's very little information about that certainly from from mainstream sources. But what we do know is that obviously this country was founded under common law honoring the individual sovereignty as a creation of the creator because we are receiving our rights from that higher power whichever label you like to use. Right? And then the bill of rights enshrined these rights. it didn't give us any rights. You know, the founders said, "Okay, we we um hold these truths truths to be self-evident that you know, I'm paraphrasing now, but we are we are a creation of the creator of the universe. That's why we re we're receiving our rights from the creator. And now we're going to form a government around this ideal. And we're going to enumerate enumerate these rights and enshrine these rights as part of our government in the bill of rights so that people who come after us will enjoy these same god-given rights. All right? Now then common law as you know in essence means no victim no crime. So right if you pass a red light and you don't injure anyone there's no victim no damage then there is no crime. Okay, simple example. Um, there was no personal income tax until 1913. I mean, if you want to, you know, look at the the greenbacks and that taxation of the Union Army, okay, but there was no personal income tax until 1913 for the regular population. There were very little taxes overall before the Civil War. Yet, we had cities, we had roads, we had infrastructure, public transport, utilities, and a mostly thriving economy. Right? So, that's the first thing that some of these people say that, well, if you're not going to pay taxes, then you shouldn't be driving on the road. Well, my question to you is, uh, how did we have all this stuff? Well, how did we enjoy a, you know, a a well-built city and infrastructure and blah blah blah, everything up until 1913? Where did that all come from? How was that funded? you know, and then you realize, okay, it was funded through excise taxes and imports and blah blah blah, but there was no personal income tax. So, and you were also free to travel and practice your trade without asking for permissions. There were no licenses, no permits, no certificates, no no none of that stuff, right? You kept all your cash and you could even redeem it for gold or silver at any bank. No questions asked. So pre-Civil War, America had real freedom the way the founders intended until the 14th amendment when everything changed. And I dive deeper into all these um bullet points in the ebook again.

So this was the beginning of political status dialectics because again up until the 14th amendment to be a citizen of the country you had to be a citizen of one of the several states also known as a state citizen as we now heard several times in these in these case law decisions. So you were a citizen of your state first. Each state had their own birth and naturalization process. So you were a citizen of, you know, Wyoming, of Texas, of California, whatever the case may be. And because you were a citizen of a state that was part of a union, you were therefore a citizen of that union. Okay? But the the actual process of becoming a citizen, even naturalizing, was handled by each individual state. And if you remember, if you've done some, you know, deep dives into some of these states, you know, there were there were several states that didn't even want to join a union when it was, you know, when that was all happening. They knew that eventually it would form into a centralized government again and would dictate to the states on all levels of governance. So the there were several territories and um states that wanted to be their own country but through another very long story and rabbit holes eventually they all basically joined. But interesting fact here if you were born before the Civil War and raised in in DC you couldn't be a citizen of the United States of America because it wasn't a state. So that was really like a political limbo situation. And before the 14th amendment, there was no federal quote unquote citizen of the United States because this status was introduced under the premise to give freed slaves political standing in the nation after the Civil War. Right? That was the initial design that was basically the was marketed to the public. The 14th amendment is only designed to give freed slaves political standing in the nation. Right? Okay.

So now let's move on to another dialectic word which you probably already know. United States equals the federal corporation District of Columbia and I'm going to prove that to you as well in just a minute. And that happened in 1871 with the organic act. And I'm I know I'm going fast but you can always watch the replay of this again. So in 1871 uh District of Columbia was basically um was basically formed into a corporation. Uh, but again, they could only do that after the 14th amendment because that established corporate citizenship, corporate federal citizenship, right? Uh, and then we have the United States of America and that is the constitutional union which I'm going to show you as well. So, here's proof. Again, you can look this up for yourself. This is the US Code 28, title 28, US Code, paragraph 3002. Scroll down to subsection 15A. And what are you going to see? United States means a federal corporation. Does it say country? Does it say nation? Does it say land? No, it doesn't. Because it's not. It's a corporation. It has been since 1871. So what you notice here is you know when whenever they put something in quotation marks that's very important in law by the way whenever they put something in quotation marks that means nothing can be added or subtracted from these words. So you cannot add of America and still be considered the federal corporation as far as legal definition goes. So United States means a federal corporation. It's so whenever you see these words from now on, think federal corporation cuz that's just the name they gave this corporation to confuse you. And here we have the definition of national. It's in title 8 US Code uh section 1101. Scroll down to subsection 21. And here you're going to see the term national again in quotation marks means a person owing permanent allegiance to a state. And we're going to unpack this sentence in just a minute as well. But again, in quotation marks, okay? It doesn't say state national. It doesn't say American national. Right? When it's in quotation marks, you cannot add or subtract anything to or from it. So this is a very important document for our purposes and you can look this up again for yourself. It's called the Certificates of Non-Citizen Nationality. You can go to the State Department website. This is official policy document. travel.state.gov. In the search box, you can type this in and it's going to pop right up. And here's the truth, my friends, like you've never seen it before. As defined by the INA, which is the uh Immigration and Nationality Act, all US citizens are US nationals. So that's pretty inclusive, I would say, right? So if all US citizens are US nationals, why has never anyone asked you, are you a US national? Yeah, interesting. And then further down it says, you know, uh you can apply for a US passport that would delineate and certify your status as a national but not a citizen of the United States. So, we know the passport is an important piece of this, but they're telling you here right now, you know, you can if you want to be just a national, then you can do that with a passport application. Now, we have a few other steps involved that make this uh process bulletproof, but they're telling you right now, of course, when you actually start reading this, this is primarily for the uh American Samoans and Swaines Islanders because the American Samoans and Swaines Islanders are the only people in this whole system of government that are called a non-citizen national. So that's also a lot of a lot of people get confused around these labels and I'm going to break these labels down later on as well. But you're not a non-citizen national that's reserved for the American Simones and Swain Islanders. But what they did is they hid the pre-Civil War state citizen behind the American Simone legislation so that in in hopes Americans would never find out what happened to the state citizen. They just gave it a new label. They gave it a dialectic label, called it national, and stuffed it behind the American Samoan legislation. That's how deep they hid this or try to hide this because, well, now we know because again, when you go to the section 101A21 of the Immigration Nationality Act, you're going to see this uh sentence again. The term national means a person owing permanent allegiance to a state written with a small s. This is important. Okay. Now, you might be wondering, well, this doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how they spell it. Oh, yes, my friends, it does matter. Uh, because in dialectics, everything matters. Even the capitalization of one single letter in one single word can mean a whole world of difference. And I'm going to prove this to you right here because when you keep scrolling down, you're going to see section 101 A36 of the Immigration Nationality Act, which says the term state again in quotation marks with a capital S includes the District of Colombia, Puerto Rico, Guam Virgin Islands. Right? So whatever this national is, they are they are outside. They are exclusive of the District of Columbia because whatever you know the allegiance to a state to a small estate well that excludes capital S states because the capital S state is defined by law as the District of Columbia. Okay.

So, let's move forward because this is about jurisdiction. The concept of jurisdiction comes from the ancient feudal system. That's really where we find ourselves in today. When you look at the world, when you look at our government system from the lens of the feudal system, everything starts to make sense because the formula is allegiance for protection and protection for allegiance. You give me your allegiance and I will protect you, you know, from the enemy or whatever. Again, we have the pledge of allegiance. Why do we have that? Okay. Uh, and and you know, the feudal system by itself, I could talk about that all day because that's such a deep rabbit hole. Um, but this is basically where we find ourselves in. We are in a modern version of a corporate feudal system and once you start seeing it, you can never unsee it. But let's talk about again about this permanent allegiance to a small estate. So again because the uh citizenship was handled by each individual individual state before the Civil War you were a citizen of your state right so and that's how we know by uh dialectic deduction permanent allegiance to a small estate equals that's the pre-Civil War state citizen but unless you comprehend dialectics you can't see it okay so I'm I'm I'm hoping this is sinking in and I'm going to keep proving this to you over and over again. Um, and they're even telling you in in their at the bottom of this document how to escape the capital estate or the DC district or the federal matrix, whatever you want to call it. I enter your name being duly sworn hereby declare my intention to be a national but not a citizen of the United States. Right? So, put that into an affidavit form, send it to the US secretary and congratulations, now you're a national or a state citizen again. Okay? So, can you believe that one sentence get can get you out of this corporate legal fiction matrix? I know it's hard to believe and I didn't believe it in the in the when I first came across this information. Uh, but um I kept researching and I kept digging and lo and behold, I I tried to find holes in this process too for all the years that I've been doing this and I haven't found any holes so far. But that's how it works. It happens every day thanks to more Americans becoming nationals or state citizens again. This, my friends, is the only way we're going to reanimate the old republic. It's not going to come from the top down. Okay? We have to rebuild the republic if we want to keep it.

So, let's talk about the 14th amendment. I mean, that alone that also is like a whole day. I could do a whole day presentation just the 14th amendment, but we're going to keep it simple. So all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the capital S state wherein they reside. Go ahead, look up the 14th amendment for yourself. You're going to see state spelled with a capital S in the middle of a sentence. It is not a typo. This is intentional. We know now what a capital S state means. We just saw the definition. So there's actually eight legal landmines in the 14th amendment attempting to expose the fraud with as little confusion as possible. Let's concentrate on only one word and. The 14th amendment does not say all persons born or naturalized in the United States are subject to the jurisdiction thereof. It says and evidently it does not use the definitive word are. If some Americans are and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, there have to be some other Americans who are not subject to the openly stated singular jurisdiction. Right? So that's also something you're going to see between the 13th and the 14th. In the 13th amendment, we don't have time to go into the 13th now. But in the 13th amendment, it talks about their jurisdiction, a collective jurisdiction of all the states combined. And now in the 14th all of a sudden it changes into a singular centralized jurisdiction. So therefore the 14th amendment actually gives you a choice which jurisdiction you'd like to live under common law pre-Civil War republic or the federal corporation. It's your choice. But of course it's I mean the 14th amendment every word in the 14th amendment almost every word is dialectics. Okay. It's so subtle. It's so slick. It's unbelievable. And this is why they've been getting away with this for so long because it's so hard to see.

So, let's talk about the two questions, the two most important questions you've been asked your entire American life. Are you a citizen of the United States? By now, some red flags should be going up already. Are you a resident? And sometimes they say, are a resident of, you know, your state? Are you a resident of your county or city? Well, allow me to rephrase these two questions the way they are intended from a legal not colloquial context because remember the 14th amendment was introduced after the Civil War and this is the legal meaning of these two questions based upon the 14th amendment just after the Civil War. Are you a citizen of the United States really means are you a recently freed slave who was assigned federal citizenship with civil rights after the Civil War? Are you a resident means are you are you residing in a state requesting protection from the federal government against any actions or abuses of your state. Okay. So, let that sink in because we're living in a dual system. And again, they're telling us this in title 28, paragraph 1746. I'm not going to read all this, but I want you to take a moment and look at this these two. Number one, number two. Okay. So, this is um if you need to uh you know create an affidavit, for example, and sign it under penalty of perjury, you can do it in two ways. you can execute the declaration or the affidavit, whatever you're doing, um, in one of two jurisdictions. And here it is. Number one, if executed without the United States federal corporation, I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is true and correct. Now if executed within the United States federal corporation, its territories, possessions and commonwealths, no does not mean these are the states. I declare on a penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. You see there is no country there's no mentioning of any country in this sentence right here. Up here we have the full name of the country United States of America and down here it's gone. There's nothing. So, by default, every single time you sign something where there is a penalty of perjury, by default, it's going to be this sentence. And you're going to start seeing this now when you look back at your contracts or look at other people's contracts or whatever. This is the default. So, we've actually had to um sometimes we actually wrote in this sentence on a contract, right? United States of America. You can do that. You can alter and edit the contract that you're entering into because it's your choice which system, which jurisdiction do you want to enter this contract into? Under under which jurisdiction are you swearing under penalty of perjury? Okay, so again, your choice.

Now, let's talk about everyone's favorite topic, Title 26 income tax. Okay, again, this is easy to look up. You can go to the very first page, title 26 1.1-1, and you're going to see income tax on individuals, section one. So, I'm going to read the whole thing, and then we'll dive some dive a little deeper. Section one of the code imposes an income tax on the income of every individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States. Doesn't say of America, does it? and comma to the extent provided by section 871b or 877b on the income of a nonresident alien individual. Right? Are you loving these dialectics as much as I am? Uh, so again, you know, some people's heads might be smoking at this point and that's that's the intent. That's exactly the reason why they are pushing this dialectics m it's really just a magic trick really if you want to look at it that way okay because it overwhelms the brain with these double uh and multiple definitions and legally words but once you you know look behind the curtain the magician is no longer so powerful again, you know, if you if you know the symbolism behind the um the wizard of oz you know what I'm talking So, uh, we don't have time to dive into this now, but if you look up 871B or 877, you're going to find some very interesting things. In a nutshell, basically those two sections of the code are the only two constitutional taxes that Americans had to pay before the Civil War. One is for expatriation and one is for um if you have a business inside the District of Columbia or if you have uh if you make proceeds from federally incorporated uh bonds. So like Pacific Railroad Union for example, if you have bonds for that then you have to pay an income tax on that. But if you don't then you don't. So again and they love this and comma stuff. So this says basically, you know, yeah, everyone owes an income tax if you're a citizen or resident of the federal corporation, but and and to the extension of these two codes, there's an income tax on this non-resident alien individual. But don't worry about it because you know you're one of these two if you've been well programmed. Well, non-resident alien, let's find out what that means. There's only two statuses, right? You're either free or you're a slave. We agreed on that. By now we know which ones the slave statuses are. So how is a non-resident alien the free state citizen? A non-resident alien is just another label. It's just another dialectic label because as a state citizen you are non-resident to the residency that was established with the 14th amendment and therefore you are alien to the federal citizenship because you are a state citizen. It's really as simple as that because again, there was no residency either before the 14th amendment didn't exist. Okay? And and we can do another whole day deep dive on what residency is and what resident really means and where it comes from. In a nutshell, no, you don't want to be a resident. In fact, when you're a national, you're no longer a resident. So, whenever they ask you, you should just say no. Okay?

So, and here are some benefits and drawbacks of the national status. And you can also find this in the ebook. So, let's go through these real quick. Benefits. Do not detain code on your US passports. How do we know this? Well, we actually have a video of a sheriff that admits on camera that, yeah, there's a do not detain code on your passport. And we have lots of other videos from nationals all over the country that basically just give their passport card to a cop and then the cop comes back and says, "All right, you're free to go." Uh, no more personal income tax, neither state nor federal. No longer subject to federal jurisdiction, codes, statutes, and mandates. The power to make traffic citations and other legal nuisances such as jury duty, we'll talk about that, disappear, like parking tickets, too. No more jury duty unless you want to. You know, some people they understand the power of the jury and how to um actually use the jury in a very liberty oriented way. But if you don't want to deal with that, then you don't have to. Reserve your rights. Reserve your bill of rights on any contract. Protect your children from CPS and your elders from APS, which is adult protection services. You affirm your status against any agency or bureaucrat that might come knocking or that might send you something in the mail. You can keep your benefits intact, which is a question we almost get every day. Will I keep my benefits? Yes, because they're just a contract. They're just a contract. In fact, anyone can contract with the Social Security Administration, no matter if they're even American. No, they'd be happy to take a chunk out of your paycheck. And you can opt out of selective service um and any potential military draft. And you know, the list could go on, but those are sort of the heavy hitters. I would say some of the drawbacks. This only works for US citizens. Green card holders must naturalize first. You cannot run for federal office. I know this is a bummer for many people. Cannot be a military contractor or be employed by one. And you cannot receive federal student aid loans. Student loans are still possible. And being a federal employee is kind of a gray zone. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. Depends on the employing agency.

So now I'm going to show you some real life proof because yes, my friends, this has been in front of your face the whole time. Go and open the first page of your passport book. And there you're going to see it. It's been there all along. The Secretary of State of the United States of America hereby requests all whom it may concern to permit the citizen SL national. Doesn't say state national. Doesn't say American national. Okay. Now then on the back uh on this photograph, it's on page number seven. It might be on a different page for you, but look at this. US taxes. All US citizens working and residing abroad are required to file and reports on their worldwide income. Well, on this same document, they establish that the holder of this passport can be either or a citizen or a national. But then here on this important information section, they leave the national out because nationals are not residing and we certainly are not required to file and report. Right. Next, here's what we get back from the attorney general's office in California. We there's some other responses uh from other states. Most of the time they just remain silent. But um this is what you if you're in California, this is what you're going to get um when you send them your affidavit, your paperwork. We appreciate hearing from citizens on matters of public concern. However, we are prohibited by law from representing private individuals or providing legal advice, legal research, or legal analysis to private individuals under any circumstances. Well, my question to you is when did they ever address you as a private individual ever before? Right? They call you person, citizen, uh, US citizen, resident, all caps name, whatever the case may be, right? Private individual. So, if you want a little bit of homework, if you have a Black's Law Dictionary, go and look up the word private and individual and then put those two together. And now you understand what they're actually saying here. Again, they their language is dialectic legal ease. So what they're saying here basically the attorney general is admitting that okay, thanks for letting us know you're no longer in the uh corporate fictional jurisdiction. You are now in the private and we have no more um jurisdiction over you. Okay. Now, even though this is the state of California, well, but look at this. It's a capital S state, right? So any state after the 14th amendment during the reconstruction period actually had to um redraft and adopt the corporate versions of their state um constitutions and they had to admit and consent to and you know in some cases they were even forced to ratify the 14th amendment otherwise they would not have been um readmitted into the union. It's a very obscure and very confusing and chaotic uh period of time, but um we have one of our scholars in the fellowship um who is putting together a very comprehensive step-by-step um you know history on what really happened right before during and right after the Civil War. And then I mean just the things that he told me already is just mind-blowing the stuff that even I didn't know. So anyway, there you go. Right. So because every state then every capital estate remember includes the District of Columbia. Therefore every capital S state in the union is part of the federal corporation. They're just like subcorporations you know like yeah subcorporations mini me of the the um DC. And here uh it's even in the unemployment insurance contract. Okay. Again it's here I declare under penalty of perjury doesn't say any country right so this is again federal corporation I declare a penalty of perjury that I am a US citizen or national doesn't say state national doesn't say American national and also whenever they put an or you could basically put um a full stop right so it means that the whatever is um on the opposite on the other side of or is separate is not connected. It's

Still sort of, you know, um, in the in the same, um, uh, reason, but it's two different things: citizen or national. So, yes, nationals can even apply for unemployment. This was sent to us from a member. He applied, he got his unemployment because all you're doing is you're changing your political status. You're changing your relationship from the federal corporation back into state citizenship. And they have to honor it because, like I showed you over and over again, it's a dual system. Both the, um, old pre-Civil War republic still exists. Okay? They just layered over top this, you know, federal corporation and made it appear as though it's the real thing when, in fact, it's not. It's just a mirror. It's a mirror.

All right, here's more. Uh, this is from Wise. Wise is a, uh, payment app, similar to, uh, PayPal or Venmo, but it's designed more for like international, um, sending international money. So, it's very, they're very low fees for international transfer of money. So, here we go. This is very interesting when, when it's, it's KYC, so you have to verify your identity. Okay. Now, look at this. ID issuing country: United States of America. I was like, "All right, that's cool. That's very nice." You, you get the difference. And then select a document type which you're going to submit. Well, look at this: Passport, driver's license, national ID, refugee identity document. Those were the only four options that you could pick. So, passport. Okay. Usually, they, they, um, combine passport with the passport card as well as the book, but I'd never seen national ID before. So, that's what I picked. That's what they accepted, and all was good.

And here, this is probably the most compelling evidence. Um, real-life proof: no state or federal taxes taken out of paycheck. Again, this was sent to us from one of our members. And, um, this is a pay stub. Federal taxable income: empty. Federal filing status: NRA, whatever that means. State filing taxes: H0, H0, whatever that means. Doesn't, I don't know. But look at this: Taxes California, zero. FITW, which stands for Federal Income Tax Withheld, zero. Right? And in this case, he wanted to contribute to Medicare and Social Security, so he can, or he could. But if he doesn't want to, we've also had nationals that opt out of these two things, too, to keep the the maximum amount. Okay? So, I mean, I could go on and on, but I think by now you get the idea.

So, I just want to make sure that again, we, we're trying to be a signal in the noise. Okay? Because state national doesn't exist. Someone came up with this term and spun off some kind of half-baked process and ran with it. And now, unfortunately, too many Americans are running with it. Same with the American national. Doesn't exist. And combining the two, American state national, doesn't make it any more legit because neither of those exist. Okay. And certainly, a sovereign citizen definitely doesn't exist. Okay. The, the, the public, the, um, the system likes to use that term to just sort of, um, slap a category on anyone who's trying to do anything different in the system. And like I mentioned earlier, the non-citizen national, that also doesn't really apply to us because that's only the American Samoan. Now, the national that exists, okay? That's the only thing you have to remember. That's the pre-Civil War state citizen and also the US national, but that's, um, kind of an umbrella term, if you will, because in certain cases, it can also include the US citizen, uh, as well as the non-citizen national and the national. So, it's sort of like a catchall. Okay.

So, here are some testimonials. I'll just leave these up for a second. If you're on the replay, you can pause the video and read these if you like. Um, these are also in the ebook. There's a few more. So, these are just members that wanted to express their gratitude and what happened, uh, when they did their process with us. So, I'm very grateful that they were, um, successful and, of course, very grateful for their membership and that they were so kind to leave us a review. So, like I said, you can grab your free ebook. Um, Clint is going to give you the link so you can, uh, get your copy. It's going to be in the description if you're watching this on the replay, or it's going to be in the chat, um, on the live call. And I want to thank you so much, once again. This is Daniel from the National Status and Passport Pathway out of the Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship. Thank you so much.

Wow. We finally get the full story. I mean, of course, there's plenty of detail to, plenty of branches you could have taken, but what an overview. I really feel like I get it now. I hope you guys do, too. Feel like you really do get it. Look, look at all those hearts. We're going to get to Q&A in just a second here, but yeah, let us take a breath and really let in all that that we just learned. It's >> Yeah, I know. It's a lot. >> Huh? >> It's, it's a lot. I get it. >> It's a lot. I mean, the part about using language as a magic trick is something I believe many of us are familiar with. And for you to have spelled it out like that is fantastic. >> And I'm sitting here thinking I need to revisit the entire Civil War period, reconstruction period, because like that's one of the dialectics: problem, reaction, solution, right? And >> Oh, big, big time. Y >> you think they had that solution in mind even before the war started? >> Oh, absolutely. Um, I mean, look, the, you know, the international bankers, really, is what we're dealing with here. Uh, they tried to subvert the republic many times throughout the 1800s, and the Civil War was their last resort. Nothing else worked. They tried to bribe officials. They tried to infiltrate the state legislatures. Well, nothing worked. So, that was the last resort. That's how they got their way. Uh, they knew exactly what they were doing. And interesting fact also that many people don't know, the 14th Amendment, the first sentence that we just, that I showed you, right? That's really like the, the heavy hitter that caused all these problems, was added an hour before midnight when, before it was ratified. So, it was like a last-minute shoe-in to slap on the 14th Amendment when, you know, they, they went, the legislators went back and forth on shaping the 14th Amendment, and it was a lot clearer that it was only supposed to be for the freed slaves. And then at the end, at the, you know, 11th hour, they rammed in the "all persons born," and there you have it. >> There you have it. My goodness. Yes. It sounds familiar too with the other unhelpful legislation that got rammed through, even the amendments themselves.

Okay, so, uh, let's go ahead with some questions. Are you ready, Daniel? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Uh, Jeff wants to know, "What titles and sections of the United States Code are nationals still subject to?" >> Well, since it's all federal statutes and codes, really none. I mean, only those that specifically apply to nationals. And as far as I could see, there's nothing really that applies. In fact, if there's anything that's mentioning nationals, it's usually an exemption. So, recently, there were a lot of executive orders when Trump took office, and there was even one for, you know, regarding citizenship. And, uh, a bunch of people that I know, they got sort of worried and panicked and was like, "Oh, what does this mean for us?" And like, "Okay, let me look at this." And so, I actually went in there and I looked at the bill and I looked at the executive order, um, and the language it uses. And long story short, basically, is it, it readjusted just some immigration stuff, um, specifically for undocumented, um, immigrants. Um, it did mention a few things that's going to change for US citizens. It didn't mention anything about nationals. And what it did say is, uh, the definitions in this bill will adhere to the definitions in the Immigration Nationality Act. So, there you go. Right? We just looked at it. National is a state citizen. So, that's what they're going with. Again, it's a, it's a dual system, right? They cannot get rid of the original republic because they're enjoying the benefits, too. If we could get a FOIA into Congress, finding out how many of these lovely congressmen, or how many people are working to see who are nationals, because none of them are paying income tax, right? We would know a lot more, but they're going to keep that information well hidden. >> Okay, good. Well, we just got a thank you from John. Thank you, Daniel. Your presentation is really important and a blessing to all of us seeking the truth. Thank you, Clint, presentation. >> Jeff has another question: Positive law versus non-positive law. >> Well, essentially, positive law means that a bill follows all the proper channels. You know, they go through the House, they go through the Senate, um, both, you know, passes both, and then it gets sent to the president, and he's or she signs it, uh, and then it goes into the Statutes at Large. And that should be, that is, uh, positive law. But then we don't get our codes and regulations from the Statutes at Large because then it gets reinterpreted. It gets pulled from the Statutes at Large, and then it gets filtered down and sliced and diced, and then put into the US Code and the CFR, the Code of Federal Regulations. And in that process, even if it started out as positive law, in that process, as it moves its way into the regulations, >> it many times loses its positive law aspect. I mean, sometimes they even completely invert the original intent as it moves its way into the CFR. So, um, but all that stuff doesn't really matter to us anymore when we're nationals, because again, CFR and US Code doesn't really apply to us. Now, of course, some of the things that, um, like, like TSA and travel, you know, we're, we're working on, uh, finding the, the thing to say, the thing to do at TSA for us nationals so that we don't have to jump through these hoops. Um, because a couple years ago, it used to be a lot easier. Um, in fact, uh, they had designated express lines, not just for diplomats, but, you know, for those who were eligible for that. And we know for a fact that as nationals, we could go into that express line, but they removed that. Okay. But whenever they remove something, they, they have to keep the remedy in place. So, there's got to be something we can say or do as nationals when we go into this TSA thing that will allow us to, you know, go around it all. We don't know the answer to that yet. Um, but we're, we have several students working on it. Uh, that's a cool thing also, because, you know, our community, they're very active, and they're constantly on the front lines, so to speak, and they're finding solutions and answers to some of these questions that we don't have answers to. Because that's really how everything we know so far, and everything Roger learned from his two mentors, um, that he passed on to, you know, people like us, and we're finding out new stuff too. But it's all because we're, we're learning, we're asking the questions, we're testing the boundaries, we're pushing the envelopes, pushing boundaries to get the answers back. And then we can come, you know, here or to communities like this and present these answers in an easy to digestible way, um, in a cohesive way. So, it's kind of like what I like to call the national pioneers. They still know certain aspects that are uncharted. >> I love it. Yes. Uh, I think this, uh, could be a helpful question. Crystal's asking about having opted out of paying, well, at least having federal income tax withdrawn, and yet she's still being told she needs to pay taxes. And I think I have an answer for that, but what, what do you say about that? We're talking about the employment withholdings from the, you, you can fill out a form and ask for no withholdings whatsoever. Anybody can do that, right? >> Yep. >> But that doesn't change the IRS's perception of your tax liability. Correct. >> Well, so I mean, you know, we have an answer for that as nationals. We also have an answer for that in the equity, um, passage. Um, but since we're talking about nationals specifically, you know, the answer for that is just rinse and repeat your documents to them. You know, we even have nationals, um, that get an invitation all of a sudden. You know, even though there was years of silence, all of a sudden they get an invitation. "Hey, you need to file your, you know, random year of taxes." And all we have to do is like, "Oh, okay. It's just an invitation. They want to recontract with you." All you have to do is say, "Nope, thanks. I'm still a national." Hopefully not talk to you again, but it's, it's okay. You know, it's just an invitation. Very good. Yes, the, look out for attempts to recontract, folks. Um, Crystal also has another question. Do I have to fill out a DS-11 form to get on the do not detain list, or just fill out an affidavit and whatever else to get on it? >> You can do either or. You can do a DS-11 or a DS-82, which is the renewal. Um, because it's not the form, the application form that matters so much. It's really the, what's on file with the US Secretary of State. So, that's the first step. You notorize your affidavit, and then you send it to the US Secretary of State because, because he's the head of the feudal system, you know, again, we can talk about that all day, but that's the first step. And then after that, you apply for a passport or renew your passport. Again, either way works because, um, what matters again is the oath. That's the, the, the fine print, the legal fine print on the passport application underneath which you have to put your signature. And if you compare DS-11 with the DS-82, it's the same oath. So, which actually, you know, once you dissect those legal, legal ease dialectics from that oath section, you're going to see like, "Oh, they're actually giving me an option here to attach something like an affidavit to make clear my political status." So, yeah, either way works. >> Okay. Thank you. So, folks, you can get the ebook by clicking on the link in the chat that I put when I put, uh, National Status and Passport. H Get your ebook. So, I'll put it again for everyone, just in case. Get your ebook. Yes, I highly recommend it. And that, that ebook alone, I know this, I, I was reading it today. In fact, uh, it's quite an education. Wow. Just that alone. And it's free. So, check that out for sure. Um, but Brian asks, um, for comparison with an outfit he's familiar with called, is it Copper Still? >> You know, people. >> Yeah. We did a one Friday night. We were at our Anything Goes in Pursuit of Truth that came up this, this whole topic, and it does from time to time. And I asked folks to list all of the names, all the gurus, and all of the outfits that are teaching some sort of paperwork or >> status correction. And there are quite a few. So, I know it's a big job, and the answer's in the ebook. I don't know if you name names, uh, in the ebook precisely, or if you just cover the distinctions that has Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship's pathway, uh, distinct from the others. So, how, how can we address that question broadly? And if you have any specifics about Copper Moonshine? >> Yeah. Um, no, I love Copper Moonshine, and it's, it's a great process. We actually are using most of their technique, but we refined it even more. The problem with Copper Moonshine is that it only adjusts your status on your passport, but nowhere else. The passport application processing center is not going to enter your affidavit or whatever document you attach to your passport application into the entire federal system, right? It's not going to happen. Their only job is to issue passports, and that's it. So, that's why, um, that's that's one major drawback. Yeah, I know people that have the Copper Moonshine passport, and they even tested it with law enforcement, and it works. But you can't use it with the IRS. You can't use it with your county. You can't use it with your state because you don't have anything else. Right? Here, we have an affidavit, and the affidavit, you can send to whoever you wish. Right? So, that's really what we stand on. That's the first step. We stand on the affidavit because that is the highest form and truth in law. And anyone who wants to challenge you on that truth is going to have to put together their own affidavit countering every single point that you're making in your affidavit, sign it under penalty of perjury, too. Do you think they're going to do that? So far, we've never seen anyone do it because they can't. >> Awesome. Awesome. Again, about the, the traveling at the airport, there's all this biometrics. >> So, it's one thing to go through the scanner, which I always opt out of, >> right? And then there's, I've also recently declined to have my photo taken. But does the national have to provide the same biometric requirements if and when they make it like universal? >> Well, I don't think they can make it universal. Again, I mean, they might be able to do in other countries, but they can't make it universal here because we're in a voluntary feudal system. Everything has to be voluntary, even though they don't make it seem that way. And sometimes you have to stand your ground and and demand and ask compelling questions, um, such as, "Is this mandatory or is it voluntary?" You know, that's that's a good question to keep in the back of your pocket for any situation. Um, so for as long as, um, people keep opting out, they're going to have to keep it in place, you know. Um, and even, I mean, there's always, see, that's the thing. Like the more I study all this stuff, the more I realize there's always a way out. There's always an opt-out, but they hide it so deeply and in confusing places that most people don't see it. But with all the pathways that we have in the fellowship, uh, it's always that plausible deniability, you know, that that hidden code somewhere deep buried in the IR, you know, IRS codes that say, "Oh yeah, if you're of, if you're a church in the, you know, in the free likes of a 508 C1A, yeah, you don't have to even tell us that you exist." And it's the mandatory exemption to the 501. Okay. So, they always have to have like this backdoor loophole somewhere somehow, and it's all the time across all the different lawful remedies that, that we're bringing forward in the, um, in the fellowship. Certainly, the, you know, the whole financial system, uh, the, you know, the, the loophole or the, um, the opt-out of debt is discharge. Right? And they wrote that into the 1933 Emergency Banking Act that every dollar can be discharged dollar for dollar. Right? So, that's that's their plausible deniability because at the end of the day, if we want to take, kind of, a natural law, universal law, God's law, whatever you want to call it, sort of, um, perspective on all this, you know, these, these people that run this system, I think we all know who they are. They understand natural law more than anyone, better than anyone, because they've been doing this for thousands of years. So, in order for them to stay karmically clean, and you may agree with this or disagree with it, but this is what, at least, the, um, conclusion that I have come to with all my research is that they have to provide an out somewhere somehow so that they stay karmically clean. Why do you think they keep asking you those two questions? "Are you a citizen of the United States?" "Are you a resident?" Right? If, if your, if your status is so clear and clean and they have all your information in the whole system anyway, why do they keep asking you those two questions all the time? Because they need your consent because it's voluntary. They need you to voluntarily enslave yourself so that they stay constantly clean. Right? I, we didn't do anything. When, you know, when they get, when they finally get to meet their maker, they can say, "Well, we provided the opt-out." Ignorance of the law is no excuse. How often have we heard that? You know, yeah, they don't make it easy, but it's there. So, >> Very good. Yes, I understand completely. >> Yeah. >> Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Uh, Q&A, a question about the passport. Um, after going through the process that you teach, will the passport itself look any different? Is there any indicator on it? Some people have talked about the number of stars. Does it, will it say national versus citizen anywhere? >> That's a good question. We get that all the time. And as far as we have seen, there is no physical difference on the passport book or the passport card. Uh, one thing we do know is that the stars on your passport card don't matter. I know there's tons of YouTube videos and all kinds of, you know, state national and American national influencers that say, "Oh, you need a five-star passport in order to be the thing." No, we've had people with three stars, four stars, and five stars, all following the same process, all getting pulled over by police and let, being let go. So, it doesn't matter what the stars are because, first of all, there are no stars on the passport book. So, if the stars actually did matter as far as your status is concerned, they would also print it on the passport book, but there are no stars on it. Right? So, that's number one. Number two is again, what matters is what's in possession of the US Secretary of State because there's a Supreme Court decision from 1835, still standing, never got overturned, that basically says, um, whatever is in the possession of the US Secretary of State as it pertains to your lawful standing is the highest and best evidence that you can bring into any, uh, court proceeding when your, the question of citizenship is brought. So, there you go. That's what, what we do because the, the passport is just an extension of what is on file with the US Secretary of State, right? Because the Department of State is the one who issues passports. So, when we go to them first and say, "Hey, I'm a national, peace out." And we then second step apply for the passport. Then the, the fact has already been established. We've never gotten a rebuttal from the State Department against our affidavits. So, there it is, you know. So, that's what matters because, and again, you're going to attach your, um, affidavit to the passport application, uh, and send it in so that it's double, right? State Department, and then also passport application. So, there's no wiggle room. >> Got it. Fantastic. Let's move to, uh, free travel. So, you did mention that, and it's a very important topic to many of the common law group folks, and, you know, in particular, they want to know, you know, all the things, does the vehicle code apply to me, you know, in terms of like speed limits and all the millions of infractions you could accidentally make on a trip from one place to another. Um, but also, you know, do I need to register my automobile? Do I need to get a driver's license? >> Yeah, there's a lot of questions. Um, but I'll answer a few questions, uh, regarding that. So, technically, yes, the vehicle code no longer applies to you, but the cops will not agree with that. Okay? So, the cops will continue to enforce what they've been trained to enforce. Um, there are several remedies. Again, if they are honorable, then they will take your passport card, run it through the system, see that you're "do not detain," and they will let you go. Now, sometimes cops are getting pressured by the board of supervisors of the county to raise more money and to dish out tickets at the end of the month, right? So, no matter what your status is, they will still give you a ticket, um, because they have to. So, but that's okay. We know how to deal with tickets, too, as nationals. That's fine. There's different ways, and everyone has a different comfort level. It depends on what you're comfortable with. So, yes, we have nationals that basically drive without any license plate. Okay, but probably means that you're going to be pulled over more often. And if you're okay with that, all the more power to you. There's nationals that make their own license plates. Okay, same thing. You're probably going to get pulled over, uh, a bit more. But, you know, if you know how to stand on your square and stand your ground, then you'll be fine. Now, again, in extreme cases, you know, there's about 5% of cops that will just be on a power trip and they will want to rub it in, and they're still going to take your car if you don't have a license plate. And that's something that you'll have to sort of, you know, run the numbers with if you're okay with that. Um, because sometimes it's easier to get this stuff back. Other times it's not so easy. My preferred way is getting non-resident plates from Montana. Anyone can, uh, register their car in Montana. And if your car is older than 10 years, and you can even get permanent plates that you never have to renew. Montana doesn't, doesn't do smog checks, doesn't do vehicle inspections, anything. They don't care what your car looks like, right? Or what if it stands up to vehicle code or whatever. Um, so, and they don't even need to see your driver's license. I gave them my passport. That's all they needed. Now, I also have a trust where the car is in, so they needed to see the trust documentation, right? But that's what I recommend. Get your non-resident license plates from Montana. That's what I have, and that's what I recommend to most people because now you meet the requirement of having a license plate on your car. So, the cops can't get you on that. Okay. And I was actually pulled over for, um, having dark tint on my windows and not having a front plate. Okay. In California, you have to have a front plate, but they couldn't do anything because the vehicle was registered in Montana, where those things are not a requirement. >> Okay, great. Yes, I forgot about the Montana plate. That's a good one. Yes, perfect solution for a lot of people. Ray asks about veterans benefits. I know you mentioned benefits before, but let's go ahead and specifically talk about veterans benefits. >> Yeah, you keep them. Doesn't matter. There's no repercussion for you changing your political status. So, you keep them intact. It's all good. >> Okay, good. Simple. Straight. Private. Private asks, "When I called the US Secretary of State, a manager asked me, 'Why would you want it to look different? When everything can be seen on your screens, it would compromise them to have something that looks different.'" >> I think he's talking about the, or she's talking about the passport. >> Yeah. Yeah, I think that's that's why because again, what, what does change is the information that's programmed into your passports, right? That's what changes. Um, but we don't have access to these, to the government system, right? Cops do, to a degree. It's a limited access, but, um, even TSA. So, I got one TSA agent to actually allow me to look at the screen, and it only had basic information. Had my name, my picture, uh, you know, I think expiration date of the passport, and there was a green, green section that says "Valid," and that was it, you know. So, it's very, um, compartmentalized, the whole thing. >> Just >> Yeah, if I know anything about systems design and computer engineering, they have to account for every single category in the program. >> It's not an. Someone asks about independent contractor status with state or federal government agencies, courts, etc. How does the national affect that? >> Well, like I said, uh, from what we know for sure is that you can't be a, um, military contractor. Uh, contracting with the state is okay. Contracting with the county is okay. We've had some people who do that. Um, it's really kind of like, I said, it's a gray zone. It really depends on who you're contracting with. Um, but again, you, you don't have to necessarily tell them that you're a national because if they don't have access to that system where they can look up that you're a national, then they don't need to know. So, if they don't need to know, then you don't need to tell them anything. You just tell them that I'm exempt. Or if you're an independent contractor, you know, it's, it's not a W-4. So, you don't need to even mark yourself exempt. So, you just don't tell them and just go on your way. >> There you go. >> Keep it simple. >> Oh, okay. Uh, this, this is an interesting question. Parents who don't want their children to be in the matrix at all. There's a two-year-old at stake here. Do, are they already a national? I mean, are they already a citizen? Can they do the process for their kid? >> Yes, very important. Yeah, you can absolutely do this process for your kids, but, um, both parents would have to become nationals first. There is a template that is a children's affidavit, basically, that both parents sign. Uh, the rest of the process is the same. You send it to the US Secretary, then you apply for a passport for the child. Um, and yeah, you, I mean, for, for the passport, for the child passport, both parents have to be, uh, physically present at the passport application appointment. So, or the one who has full custody, you know, uh, sometimes, unfortunately, you know, we have parents that they're either still together or they're, you know, separate, and one parent is on board, the other one isn't. So, then it becomes really tricky. >> Yeah. But >> Tricky or impossible? Well, that's the thing also that we don't really have full and complete answers to because lawfully speaking, if only one parent signs the children's affidavit, and both parents have custody, if it were, God forbid, ever to get to court, right, and you want to bring your affidavit in and saying this child is, is a national, then the court, the judge will say, "Well, there's only one signature on this. Both of you have custody. So, you know, you did this without the other's consent. So, therefore, it's not valid." It has never come to that, and we don't know if this is what was or would happen, but just theoretically, whoever has custody of the child must sign the affidavit. >> Okay, cool. I've got a question about the course itself. So, let's say people are engaged in the training and they have questions. How does the Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship package support questions? >> Excellent. Yeah. So, we have email support, so you can always send us an email. We have a monthly membership call. It's very much like this, where for an hour, you can ask me any questions you have. And we also bring, usually, we bring a topic for the first like 10, 15 minutes, like an update, latest intel, or whatever the case may be, >> and, or maybe a success story. So, we've had several of our members bring a success story to us. Like one was in October of last year, she shut down the whole traffic court and got like 40-plus people dismissed with all their cases just because she knew who she was and she stood on her square. They asked her three times, though, right? She had to do this in front of three different people. But the third time was in front of the judge. When she said what she said, the judge actually said, "Thank you," to her and then announced to the room, "Well, because there's no police officers present today, everyone's dismissed." When our national friend saw at least two cops earlier in the room. So, >> Good job. Good story. Okay. >> So, anyway, so, you know, stuff like that. And then we also have, um, a private call, so you can book a direct call with me or one of our liaisons to work on your specific situation. So, we have several options for support. >> Great. I love to hear that. I love to hear that. Someone asks about existing contracts. So, you go through the process, now you're national. Do you need to review all of your existing contracts, like commercial contracts and that sort of thing? >> Not really. No. I mean, that would be a major headache. Um, >> you know, so we have several versions of the affidavit. They all work the same. One is a bit more specific. Um, that actually has a line in there that you basically disavow any previous contracts that would basically infringe upon your new rights. So, that's sort of a coverall. Um, and if that old contract would ever come to bite you in the butt for whatever reason, then you can always whip out your affidavit and say, "Hey, look, I'm a national now. Here's proof. State Department knows, IRS knows, right? So, leave me alone." But no, you don't have to go back in time and undo every single contract you've ever entered into. Um, it's just the contracts that are affecting you right now, such as employment, is mostly what most people are having to update. But other than that, no. >> Okay. So, say you're pulled over. What is the, what is it you do? What's, what's your national, what do you say? What's the first out your mouth? >> Well, there, there's some different ways. I mean, we have a script that's part of the resources that we recommend. It's very much based on equity. So, you only ask questions in return. You never make a statement or you make a, a claim because he who makes a statement or she has the burden of proof, right? And when you start defending yourself, well, now you're acting like you're guilty. But if you're only asking questions, well, then you're just inquiring into the lawful manner of what, what is this about? That's the preferred way. Of course, we understand that, you know, in a, in such a situation, the adrenaline is rushing and you might forget. Some people tape like a, a printed version of those questions on the inside of their door. It's like a cheat sheet, almost, right? But, you know, in essence, you can keep it very simple and you just give them the passport card. If they say, "Well, I need your registration, insurance." Now, I don't, I'm not a proponent of not having insurance, but several nationals have nothing, just a passport card, and they're still okay. So, at the end of the day, the rule of thumb is say as little as possible, invoke your Fifth Amendment, right? You could say something to the effect of, you know, "Officer, I'd love to answer your question, but I'm without competent counsel, so I really can't." Or the, you know, the high court has ordered me to shut my mouth, refer to, uh, Miranda, the Miranda case, you know, because if your rights are in peril, you have no obligation to answer any question. Probably you have seen too, there's people that, um, simply say, "I don't answer questions," and that seems to work too. So, there's many different ways you can, you can handle it. >> Wonderful, wonderful. Maybe we can have you on a, on a Tuesday sometime. We just explore all those things. The first Tuesday of the month, the Free Traveler Monthly Confab. Um, I love this question too because there's a category of people who are imprisoned and I really don't know what their status is, so to speak. Uh, does it make a difference if you're a national or become a national while you're in prison? >> Well, first, I don't, I mean, I've never dealt with that situation, so I don't really know the answer. But I don't know if you can become a national while you're in prison. >> That's number one. Maybe. I don't know. Um, I don't think they have much internet access, so they would have to, you know, somehow print out the affidavit, get it notorized. Now, in a pinch, you could also do the biblical version of just having two witnesses, and that makes it lawful, too, as notorization. Um, not sure how much access they have to like sending certified mail, you know, because everything they send gets, first of all, opened and scanned, I hear, right, when they want to send something out of prison. So, I don't know what the logistics look like for someone who's in prison. Um, ideally, if you want to help someone who is incarcerated, uh, probably equity would be your best bet because whatever they're in prison for, there's a commercial charge attached to it that they are the surety for. Now, I'm talking about non-criminal, uh, violations. Okay? So, if there is a victim, then that's a whole different story, and that becomes very complex. But if it's a, it's a, it's a victimless crime, then you can just discharge the commercial, you know, value to that, um, sentence and, you know, hopefully, um, get them out. But I don't know about that. That would be a question for our equity director. >> Yeah, the equity pathways definitely sounds more appropriate. Okay, so let's, um, close with this. I want to give you an opportunity just to characterize the course itself, like how long is it, how many modules is it, and how does it unfold, video, you know, PDFs? Give people a picture of it. Um, this is not a substitute for not first reading the ebook. Folks, this, this ebook is really what you need to read just to be able to know if the pathway is for you. And so, um, but yeah, I'm sure people, people are curious a bit, bit about what's the experience like once I sign up, what, what can I expect? >> Sure. Yeah. So, we have five main modules. They're about, uh, they're video modules, and it's pretty much, um, similar to the presentation I gave today. So, it's a, like, you know, voice-over presentation style, kind of audiovisual experience. Um, so, roughly five hours is the main sort of module of course, and then there are some bonus modules, like how to fill out and file your passport application. Um, there's some videos, like I said, in regards to lawful travel. Um, and then we have, um, an archive of all the monthly membership calls. So, you're going to get access to all the replays that we've had over the past year. And like I said, we cover a lot of questions there. Then we have three main Q&A modules, too, where I cover most of the questions that, you know, a lot of them were here today, as well. So, overall, I would say like 20, 30 hours worth of content, at least, you know, and then, um, you have the resources section. So, you have your main resources, the one that you absolutely need to get the process done, and then you also have a bonus section with some bonus templates and documents and, and books and PDFs that you can all download. You know, because everyone's situation is different. Some people have an LLC, sometimes an S-corp, other people are independent contractors, and some people are employed. So, we put as many resources for as many different situations in there as we possibly could, and we're always adding to it. So, this is by no means like a stale, once-and-done kind of deal. We're always expanding. We're always adding, you know, based on the latest research, based on the latest findings that either me or our team, or even our members, you know, our members are a great resource that constantly bring new information to us, then, and then we bring that into the greater membership so that everyone can benefit from it. So, that's basically the, the experience. And yeah, we have a wonderful community, ever-growing. And as Clint said, too, we have different pathways that I just want to briefly touch on. So, we have land patents. So, allodial land. I'm sure you've talked about that on, on a few of your calls, right? So, this is how we take back our land, the soil. Um, we have equity passage. So, we talked about that a little bit. How you can discharge your public obligations, debt, credit cards, you know, mortgages, yes, but it's very difficult. Not impossible. We know people who have done it, but they're going to fight you on it. The banks are going to fight you on the mortgage. And then we have the trifecta, which is our trust model. So, it's three, three structures in one. You have the free church in the likes of a 508. Then you have the trust, and then you have your PMAs. But they're all integrated into one structure so that everything becomes an extension of the church. And that church is basically the overarching umbrella that keeps everything in divine jurisdiction and keeps everything protected by the Establishment Clause, right? The First Clause of the Bill of Rights. Um, because they have to. Everything that is considered to be a religion or a, you know, a practice of faith must be mandatorily exempted from the commercial aspect of the system. And you can still use this vehicle to do your, you know, trade and have your business in it. You can still have public-facing companies like LLCs and S-corps, but they're all integrated now and owned by the trust that's owned by the church. So, it's a very powerful structure that allows you to move your life and your affairs completely into the private side of things. >> Fantastic. And these courses are all self-directed, so you can take them as quickly or as slowly as you like. Is that right? >> That's right. Yeah. >> Wonderful. Okay. Well, Daniel, what a time we've had tonight. I wanted to have a presentation about this subject that was unlike any other that gave everyone everything they really needed. And in two hours, you've done it. >> I know, right? Didn't think I could, but here you go. >> Folks, thanks for spending time with us tonight. We've just been growing at Common Law Group. There's just so much opportunity. Have you noticed that there's something also afoot in our land where people are waking up and discovering things and taking the the reins, really finding the agency within them, finding the one free man, free woman inside of you who's seeing that, um, there's an education involved, there's action to take, and freedom comes from you. So, a slogan I'm entertaining, put it on a t-shirt: "Be Free and Act Like It." But with that, I wish you all the blessings. And for those of you who care to share your blessings and thanks, whatever you want to shout out. >> God bless. Thank you. >> Thank you so much. >> Much appreciated. >> Thank you so much. >> Blessings, everybody. >> Thank you. >> Thank you very much. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Clint, you're the best. >> Hi. >> Thank you so much. This was very informative. >> Thank you to Daniel. >> Thank you all. It was a pleasure. >> Great education. Thank you. >> Hi, this is John Casser. Dan, can you hear me? >> Yeah, I can hear you. John, how you doing? >> Hey, listen. Um, I just want to commend you. Dan and I crossed a path, and, and I was doing some stuff. I've been associated with Roger Sales for many years, and you've taken the information that you got from us and done an absolutely astounding job in clarifying it and presenting it right across the board, and you've gone even a little bit further. In fact, I've been doing this a lot of years, and you really have taken the bull by the horns and done a fantastic job. >> Thank you, John. Thank you, really. I app, I appreciate that. And John was the one who actually introduced me to Roger and this whole work. And, uh, that, like I said, was a life-changing day. That was the beginning of life number two for me. And, you know, I never imagined in a thousand years that I'd be doing this the way I'm doing it now. But one thing led to another. And, um, it's just a wonderful, wonderful journey that this has been. So, thank you, John, for introducing me to Roger and for introducing me to this information. And I couldn't sleep that night, by the way. You owe me one night of sleep, but for a good way, you know, 'cause I, I was just so fascinated by this information. I couldn't stop thinking about it. And so, >> Well, I remember you were, you were extremely excited, and I knew you were going to do something with it. >> Once again, everyone, thanks for being here, and thanks, John, for those wonderful, beautiful words, and thanks for introducing. And I know there's no accidents in life. There's a reason for everything. Peace and love to everyone.
