Jesus Christ | Dry. Dear Friends, Please excuse the strange appearances on this message. I was in the middle of upgrading my system software, and I was testing two different machines, when this all-important newspaper article came across from Harvey Wysong. Rather than to share my thoughts too widely, I want you to consider my comments here very carefully, and then to respond as soon as you can. The tax and monetary system is so important to the feds, they will do almost anything to keep it afloat, even though it is under very heavy, probably fatal attack right now, in People v. United States, and in other cases. I have my reasons for believing that Randy Parsons in the Freedom Center is deep cover. It may also be that Leroy Schweitzer is very deep cover as well. I am almost certain that Elizabeth Broderick is a federal informant; we have an admission to that effect from a man who has me under surveillance. Now, if you will read the following article very carefully, you will find that there is in place a DOJ task force to track down all the warrants that Schweitzer issued. That has been one of the key elements to my hypothesis all along: use warrants to infiltrate the freedom movement. Now, I was very hot on the trial up there in Billings, and I was evidently TOO close to busting the entire scam. This became evident to me as I shared with Randy my beliefs about Broderick, and my experiences with her and her associates. Those were not Patriots who flocked around her; those were low-level operatives who got scared when I came on the scene. Broderick probably brought me in to test their security; it broke fairly fast, under the kinds of scrutiny which I brought to her cases (2 civil and 1 criminal). Now, factor in our recent finding that the "queen pin" in Los Angeles is one Nora Manella, who is not a U.S. Attorney, on written admission by certain DOJ officials. Broderick is a federal informant, on open admission by a "Libertarian" activist who is now tailing me all over Arizona, and the Internet. Now, take a look at this from an entirely different angle. I am one of only a few people in this country who has gotten very deeply into both Broderick's and Schweitzer's cases. In both instances, I was ushered out, politely in the latter case, abruptly in the former case; don't forget the tampered brakes, and the gutted legal office I had built, and the $10,000 in legal fees the Freedom Center has refused to pay, and the material evidence now stuck up there (the Zolton letter, for example). A long time ago I had this vision that FRN's would become like an AIDS virus. I had no idea how relevant that idea would some day become. The warrants which Schweitzer and Broderick (and Crawford) were issuing were marked bills; with the proper coordination among the nation's banks, all of that commercial paper would connect federal prosecutors with the "enemy," namely, Americans who were aware of the banking and taxing fraud, and who were gutsy enough to try clearing a warrant through that very same banking system, come what may. Is it any wonder that I would be systematically stiffed of ALL my legal fees for the past year, during which time I spent many hours working these (and related) cases? Don't forget, by law, my pleadings MUST be served on the Attorney General and on the Solicitor General, because I ALWAYS find one or more federal statutes which are obviously unconstitutional, e.g. the blanket FOIA exemption for the judiciary (as a case in point; there are many others, like the oxymoron "illegal tax protester"). Now, when I break Crawford one morning, by telling him that I intend to testify against Broderick, he had two choices: flow with the discovery, or blow up for being fingered. He chose the latter. Now, quite by "coincidence," he has been "extradited" to Oregon, or Washington state, or who knows where. I believe he is debriefing DOJ about what I actually do know, and what my plans are. Crawford had no idea I would land the Ray Looker case, where the defendant has chosen to implement the plan completely, with very effective and amazing results. The attorneys on both sides are buried in paperwork, and the courts are running scared, because every government employee who touches Ray's case knows s/he has already become a RICO defendant, in a court of competent jurisdiction -- the District Court of the United States. What do you know? Now, by attacking the Jury Selection and Service Act broadside, we will bury the government's last ditch in the ground war: they will no longer be able to tamper with juries and get wired verdicts. Their ground troops are standing naked in the sun, with nowhere to hide, no bullets, and no weapons, except to villify the enemy. Notice how people who post all kinds of garbage about rapes, murders, mental sickness, disease, and death, are allowed to post freely. But, Paul Mitchell comes along, without so much as a single four-letter word, and he is getting villified as if he had hacked his entire neighborhood into a million pieces with a machete, and then drank their blood after mixing it with celery and carrots in his blender. Don't forget the tobasco sauce. If you don't see the pattern by now, I really do NOT know how I will ever be able to explain the whole thing to you. You must have special ears to hear "The Overtone" (a title for a book I want to write some day). The "overtone" is the extra sound which two slightly discordant tones will create in the air -- a third oscillation which is the product of the first two. It is really there, but it is being "synthesized" by the other two. So, here's the Modus Operandi: offer "expert" classes on the tax and monetary system. A "bonus" of class attendance is the knowledge to issue warrants, or to buy them from the experts. Those warrants clear the banking system, initially, giving them the appearance of integrity. The bank officials are on notice to forward them to the FBI, who in turn bring them directly to key prosecutors, like -- you guessed it -- Nora Manella, sitting in one of the driving positions, high atop the federal building in downtown Los Angeles, one of the largest cities in the world. Upon landing there, those warrants have attached to them all kinds of "assets," like banks, bank accounts, credit card accounts, home loans, and so on, and so on. If you are Nora Manella, you now have your choice of turkeys to shoot, and eat. They are more like sitting ducks, actually; and your deep cover agents, like Broderick, Parsons, and Schweitzer (maybe?) know that there is a pot of gold awaiting them at the end of the rainbow, if they will just go along with the program for a few more months. "Paul, we'll have to pay you by selling some (live)stock." That became their "stock" answer. Simple, really. Shall I forward this memo to Kenneth Starr? Or, shall we have some fun on the Internet with all of this stuff first, before those indictments "drop" out of the sky, like the bowling ball we all released from the center of our favorite bridge? /s/ Paul Mitchell >Date: Mon, 06 Jan 1997 13:37:35 -0500 >To: hwysong@mindspring.com >From: Harvey Wysong <hwysong@mindspring.com> >Subject: via Kevin: DMN-Freemen Links > >Date: Sun, 12 Jan 1997 08:05:17 -0500 From: believer@telepath.com (by way >of kocjmb@avana.net) > >>From the "Dallas Morning News" Online: > >Authorities study links in fraud cases >By Thomas G.
