Aaron Russo talks with IRS Commissioner Sheldon Cohen

# Note: Income is not defined in the Internal Revenue Code.
# Note: The Definition of Income was given in the Eisner vs Montgomery case to mean gains or profits from corporate activity and not wages.
Supreme Court on the 16th Amendment:

"The provisions of the Sixteenth Amendment conferred no new power of taxation . . ."

United States Supreme Court, Stanton v. Baltic Mining Co., 240 U.S. 103 (1916)

“The Sixteenth Amendment, although referred to in argument, has no real bearing and may be put out of view. As pointed out in recent decisions, it does not extend the taxing power to new or excepted subjects...”

United States Supreme Court, Peck v. Lowe, 247 U.S. 165 (1918)
Aaron with Sheldon on Title 26 (IRC) & 16th

Sheldon: Title 26 requires you to file a return.

Aaron: But doesn’t title 26 have to be in compliance with the Supreme Court decisions?

Sheldon: Your gonna take a 1920’s case and super impose it on the on the whole internal revenue code that was written after it, no that’s not….

Aaron Narrating: I can’t believe what I just heard rewind.

Sheldon: Your gonna take a 1920’s case and super impose it on the on the whole internal revenue code that was written after it, no that’s not….

Aaron Narrating: Remember he said earlier that the internal revenue code was authorized by the 16th Amendment.

Sheldon: The internal revenue code is authorized by the 16th amendment.

Aaron Narrating: Remember the supreme court said the 16th amendment did not give the government any new taxing power, these decisions have never been overturned. Lets listen further.

Texans Begin To Rise Up Against Trans-Texas Cooridor

‘Fiscal irresponsibility’

By JOANN LIVINGSTON Daily Light Managing Editor
Posted: Sunday, February 25, 2007 7:34 PM CST
The Trans-Texas Corridor, Gov. Rick Perry’s massive transportation project, hit some speed bumps Friday.

A sharply-worded report from the State Auditor’s Office was released - and a member of the Republican leadership in the House filed a bill to repeal the plan, which could encompass up to 8,000 miles. Click here for more.

9/11 Building 7 Collapse - WTC7 23 Minute Warning - Salomon Brothers Building

The BBC was reporting live that World Trade Center Building collapsed. There was a live feed with a correspondent at the scene who said the building had collapsed. The only problem is that the building was just over her left shoulder and had not yet collapsed. How did the BBC know the building was going to fall????? (23 minutes in advance of the actual collapse of Building #7).

How can anyone explain the fact that WTC7 which had not been hit by a plane and was of different construction from the two towers fell as a result of fire. This has NEVER happened in the history of modern steel construction. If your question is why then you are not alone….

It is time we get real answers!!! “We have nothing to Fear but Fear itself”

Money, Banking and the Federal Reserve

"Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson understood "The Monster". But to most Americans today, Federal Reserve is just a name on the dollar ... all » bill. They have no idea of what the central bank does to the economy, or to their own economic lives; of how and why it was founded and operates; or of the sound money and banking that could end the statism, inflation, and business cycles that the Fed generates."

World Begins To Awaken To The Call Of Freedom

Texas gov. firm on cancer vaccine

By ELIZABETH WHITE
BW Exclusives

SAN ANTONIO

Gov. Rick Perry defended his executive order requiring sixth-grade girls be vaccinated against the virus that causes most cases of cervical cancer, saying that he believes with "all my heart" that he was right.

"I do not understand why we as a people would not take this opportunity to use this vaccine ... to the benefit of our children," Perry said Tuesday. Click here for more.



Perhaps Rick Perry could learn from "the creed of freedom" as follows:

FREEDOM OF CHOICE
I believe that desirable social and economic objectives are better achieved by voluntary action than by coercion of law. I believe that social tranquility and brotherhood are better achieved by tolerance, persuasion, and the power of good example than by coercion of law. I believe that those in need are better served by charity, which is the giving of one's own money, than by welfare, which is the giving of other people's money through coercion of law.

Wikipedia Censorship Against AFTF?

We have received complaints from several volunteers that Wikipedia is posting terrible reviews of AFTF. So we registed and attempted to post two favorable reviews: the first by Chuck Baldwin and the second by NewsMax.com.

Within 5 minutes of making these posts we received the following message from Wikipedia:

User talk:Smartenergy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia on America: From Freedom to Fascism; however, I had to remove your contributions. Generally, reviews should not be posted on Wikipedia due to their inherent non-neutral point of view. Thanks! Veinor (talk to me) 14:07, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

So that's the bad news. But the good news is that the 2+ terrible reviews of AFTF were also removed during this Wikipedia editorial clean up operation. AFTF Volunteers are encouraged to register with Wikipedia and if you see these one-sided terrible reviews to TAKE ACTION to post positive reviews. There may be an inherent bias by the editorial leadership of Wikipedia to let the terrible AFTF reviews stand, at least until AFTF supporters among We The People take action.

George Will Covers Ron Paul

By George F. Will
Newsweek

Feb. 26, 2007 issue - Some rice farmers from Congressman Ron Paul's district were in his office the other day, asking for this and that from the federal government. The affable Republican from south Texas listened nicely, then forwarded their requests to the appropriate House committee. It may or may not satisfy their requests in some bill dispensing largesse to agricultural interests. Then Paul will vote against the bill. Click here for more.

JFK's Executive Order 11110: The Shot of Truth Heard Round The World

Executive Order 11110 gave the US the ability to create its own money backed by silver. ...

On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest. On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve. Mr. Kennedy's order gave the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.

This order remains open and has never been repealed. Click here to read more about this order. Click here to read the original order from the JFK Kennedy Library and Museum archives.

Happy Gridlock Days Are Here Again!

This just in from the AFTF Google Video's comments section:

From: Happy

To whom it may concern:

I am very upset with the apparent complacency of my fellow Americans. To this end I propose a nation wide campaign of civil obedience of the speed limit laws. In an attempt to draw attention to the many cases of Government corruption, I propose that every American simply drive the minimum speed limit on all roads, especially during commuting hours on major multi lane roadways. Perpetual gridlock = awareness. Drive 45 in a 70 today, Your grandkids will thank you.

Keep the Grassroots Rebellion going and help secure Ron Paul publicity

Their polls include people like Al Gore, Chuck Hagel, Mark Warner, and Newt

Ron Paul has actually taken the first step and formed an exploratory

AFTF Is A Hit At Conspiracy Night In Las Vegas

AFTF screened tonight in a Las Vegas library along with Loose Change 2nd Edition recut and Alex Jones Terror Storm. Our local volunteer organizer, Don - who will also be taking on the AFTF Nevada State coordinator position - said that AFTF was the only movie to receive a good round of applause. Don's original "conspiracy night" concept called for outdoor screenings in public parks all over Las Vegas, an idea he will be pursuing once the weather begins to really warm up.

Laurie Steele, the radio host at KOMP 92.3 interviewed Aaron for 2 1/2 hours last Sunday, February 4th. You can go to the Conspiracy Night blog and click on the link to listen to this incredible interview - one of the very best, according to our interview with Don, the host of Conspiracy Night - on the audioblog below:

We Need Help - 1500 DVDs of Aaron Russo's - "Freedom to Fascism" being distributed

Behind the scenes we are aware of a fan of Aaron Russo’s “Freedom to Fascism” movie that has 1500 DVDs to be distributed to a large number of people today at a gathering that is a grapevine root. There are several gatherings associated with the group that run from lunch time through dinner and I was asked to wait until now to send out an invitation to those that I thought would be willing to hand out the DVDs to the people in attendance to these events today.

That’s all I can say now until the deed is done. If I know you and you are available to do some of this old fashioned activism this afternoon and evening then please call me at 602 717 5900 and I will provide more details about where to meet in the Phoenix area.

Simple.

The Great Dollar Crash of '07

The so-called ‘global economic system’ has nothing to do with competition, free markets or private enterprise; that’s just public relations gobbledygook. In practice, it is the world’s biggest extortion racket, wherein, the “Godfather”-- Uncle Sam-- holds a gun to the heads of his subjects and forces them to use our fiat-paper to purchase the oil that lubricates their economies.

Why would anyone accept a personal check from a nation that owes the bank more than $8.6 trillion dollars?

Why, indeed?

It’s blackmail, pure and simple; and yet, the Chinese, Japanese etc. continue to play along knowing full-well that we neither have the inclination nor the resources to pay them back in kind?

It’s madness. Click here for more.

AFTF Screening In Santa Cruz This Saturday February 3rd

Film Showing "America: Freedom To Fascism"

Determined to find the law that requires Americans to pay income tax, Aaron Russo (THE ROSE, TRADING PLACES) sets out on a journey. Neither left- nor right-wing, this startling examination exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America. Through interviews with US Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents, tax attorneys and authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, voter fraud, the national identity card (becoming law in May 2008) and the implementation of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track citizens. A striking case about the evolving police state in America.
