How NESARA Cancels War & Restores Our Constitutional RightsJanuary 15, 2003 2:13 p.m. PST
Hello Dear Friends and White Knights,
Yesterday I asked for help regarding how President Franklin D. Roosevelt
(FDR) turned the people of the U.S. into the “enemies” of the federal
government and took us out of Constitutional Law. My sincere thanks to
those who sent me the information showing the details of the laws FDR used
to make the people the enemy. I received various pieces information
related to the 1933 changes which I’m including below.
It turns out that FDR used both a banking act (“Emergency Banking and Bank
Conservation Act” approved on March 9, 1933) and amendments to a “trading
with the enemy” act to expand his powers and to keep our country
perpetually under “emergency and war powers”. This is how our
Constitutional Rights were usurped by the Executive Branch (President) and
the Congressional Branch of our government using underhanded and disguised
changes to laws in 1933.
One of the points made below is especially important for us to understand
the true depth of the intrusions into our lives. I’m repeating this quote
from Gene Schroder’s information below because it is key to how the
government has spread its unconstitutional interference into our lives.
Gene Schroder writes: “Under the amended version (1933) of the 1917 Act
and by operation of law, the American people became the same as the foreign
"Enemy" of 1917. As such, all Americans were therefore subject to
regulations, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations issued by the
President of the United States or the Secretary of Treasury since March 4,
1933 (12 USC 95b). After the American people were declared to be
"enemies", all legal and commercial intercourse became illegal, and the
only way one could do business or any type of legal intercourse was to
obtain permission from our government by means of a form of license (by
law, a 'license" is a permit to do that which would otherwise be
illegal).
As you might expect, our government normally protects the United States by
restricting the activities of "enemies". For example, we wouldn't expect
the Federal government to allow Communist agents to travel freely or open a
business in our country. Nevertheless, there are times when the government
might allow members of an "enemy" nation to travel from New York to
Chicago. For example, when athletes of the former Soviet Union came to
America, our government granted them a special permission ("licences") todo that (travel) which would otherwise be prohibited for Russian agents.
That our government might "license" foreigners who might be enemies is
unremarkable, but who ever imagined that our own government licensed us for
the very same reason? Today, if one wants to travel, one has to have a
Driver's License, if one wants to open up a business, one has to have a
business license, if one wants to work, one must obtain a license (Social
Security Card).”
These changes FDR made in 1933 remain in effect today. The first item
below is a letter from Bush Jr. which continues the fraudulent process of
the keeping our country under “a national emergency” thus continuing the
federal government’s removal of our Constitutional Rights. In 1979 a
congressional amendment required that the President renew the ‘national
emergency’ status or the national emergency would be cancelled. This is
how the Executive Branch has maintained the fraud of holding much more
power than the Constitution gave the President and continuing to consider
the people of the U.S. the “enemy” of the federal government. What we all
have to realize is that this has been an ongoing fraud which has led to
massive government intrusion in our lives. When you read below the flimsy
excuses that Bush Jr. is using and that Clinton used, you can see that if
the American people understood these frauds, there would be a rebellion.
Bush Jr. states the national emergency must be extended due to a threat
from Libya. LIBYA? He’s really stretching to find an excuse to keep the
national emergency powers of the oval office in force. Clinton used his
excuse of “weapons of mass destruction” for continuing the Presidential
“national emergency powers” which were ONLY supposed to be used during
times of actual “war”. Now we see how politicians have continued
fraudulently grabbing power over our people. Please note that Bush Jr.’s
letter regarding the continuation of the bogus national emergency is copied
from the official U.S. Department of State website “… produced and
maintained by the U.S. Department of State's Office of International
Information Programs…”.
If you click the website url for the Law school online library at Cornell
University, http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/50/1622.html you can see
that the President does have the power to cancel these national
emergencies. But the national emergencies give the Office of the President
greater powers than those given by the Constitution, so we the people are
still treated as the enemy due to the fraud committed by FDR and Congress
in 1933. The text of the law (TITLE 50 CHAPTER 34 SUBCHAPTER II Sec.
1622) reads:
“Sec. 1622. - National emergencies
(a) Termination methods
Any national emergency declared by the President in accordance with this
subchapter shall terminate if -
(1) there is enacted into law a joint resolution terminating the emergency;
or
(2) the President issues a proclamation terminating the emergency.”
The good news is that when the NESARA President Designate is sworn in
during the NESARA announcement process, he will END this bogus status of
“national emergency” and will declare peace. The NESARA President
Designate will END ALL the so-called national emergencies and reinstate our
Constitutional Rights.

It appears from the data below that groups in some states attempted to
restrict the federal government’s intrusions into our lives in the mid-90s.
There have been many attempts by various groups to restore the
Constitution over the years and correct the abuses of the federal
government. The true NESARA law clears these abuses so we may truly live
under the Constitution and in peace and prosperity! NESARA Yes!

For Immediate Release
January 3, 2003
Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Libya
On January 7, 1986, by Executive Order 12543, President Reagan declared a
national emergency to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by
the actions and policies of the Government of Libya. On January 8, 1986, by
Executive Order 12544, the President took additional measures to block
Libyan assets in the United States. The President has transmitted a notice
continuing this emergency to the Congress and the Federal Register every
year since 1986.
The crisis between the United States and Libya that led to the declaration
of a national emergency on January 7, 1986, has not been resolved. Despite
the United Nations Security Council's suspension of U.N. sanctions against
Libya upon the Libyan government's hand-over of the Pan Am 103 bombing
suspects, Libya has not yet complied with its obligations under U.N.
Security Council Resolutions 731 (1992), 748 (1992), and 883 (1993), which
include Libya's obligation to accept responsibility for the actions of its
officials and pay compensation.
Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies
Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency
with respect to Libya. This notice shall be published in the Federal
Register and transmitted to the Congress.

EMERGENCY WAR POWERS analyzed by Gene Schroder
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
During World War I (WWI), the U.S. Congress passed the Trading With the
Enemy Act (12 USC Sec. 95a; October 6, 1917). This Act was later amended in
the Banking Relief Act of March 9, 1933 (Title 12 USC 95 (b); c 1, Title 1,
Sec. 48 Stat. 1). By means of that amendment, the United States has been
operating under WAR AND EMERGENCY POWERS since March 9, 1933. Under the
1933 Banking Relief Act the federal government declared the Bank Holiday of
March 6, 1933, and relieved the Banks from their contractual obligation to
the American people of redeeming their Federal Reserve Notes in gold. (The
Federal Reserve note originally constituted a warehouse receipt for real
gold which the people had placed on deposit with the Banks).
The original Trading With the Enemy Act, of October 6, 1917, was enacted at
a time when the United States was at War with Germany (World War I), and is
therefore Constitutional under Article 1, Sec. 8, Cl. 11, U.S.
Constitution:
"Congress shall have the power to declare War, grant Letters of Marque and
reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures of Land and Water," The
amended version (1933) of the original Trading with the Enemy Act (1917)
was approved and passed by Congress on March 9, 1933. This amended version
was enacted at a time when the United States was not at War with any
foreign foe.
Further, the amended version (1933) was radically different from the 1917
version. In 1917, the jurisdiction of the Trading With the Enemy Act
excluded all citizens of the United States who conducted their business
wholly within the United States. However, the 1933 amendment included
citizens of the United States under its jurisdiction by adding the
following language:
"by any person within the United States or any place subject to the
jurisdiction thereof."
Under the amended version (1933) of the 1917 Act and by operation of law,
the American people became the same as the foreign "Enemy" of 1917. As
such, all Americans were therefore subject to regulations, rules, licenses,
orders and proclamations issued by the President of the United States or
the Secretary of Treasury since March 4, 1933 (12 USC 95b).
After the American people were declared to be "enemies", all legal and
commercial intercourse became illegal, and the only way one could do
business or any type of legal intercourse was to obtain permission from our
government by means of a form of license (by law, a 'license" is a permit
to do that which would otherwise be illegal).
As you might expect, our government normally protects the United States by
restricting the activities of "enemies". For example, we wouldn't expect
the Federal government to allow Communist agents to travel freely or open a
business in our country. Nevertheless, there are times when the government
might allow members of an "enemy" nation to travel from New York to
Chicago. For example, when athletes of the former Soviet Union came to
America, our government granted them a special permission ("licences") todo that (travel) which would otherwise be prohibited for Russian agents.
That our government might "license" foreigners who might be enemies is
unremarkable, but who ever imagined that our own government licensed us for
the very same reason? Today, if one wants to travel, one has to have a
Driver's License, if one wants to open up a business, one has to have a
business license, if one wants to work, one must obtain a license (Social
Security Card). …
By Executive Order 2039 of March 6, 1933 and Executive Order 2040 of March
9, 1933, the belligerent United States [federal government] acting under
the War Power seized title to all gold (lawful, constitutional money), took
physical possession of all the money, and left the American people
penniless, bankrupt, and without means to lawfully pay their debts.
After the United States had seized title and took physical possession of
the people's [lawful] money, the government found it necessary to issue a
new form of currency in order for the people to carry on normal business
transactions. This new currency was in the form of Federal Reserve bank
Notes (War & Emergency currency), and not Federal Reserve notes (warehouse
receipts for the gold).
"This new money will be worth 100 cents on the dollar because it is backed
by the credit of the Nation. It will represent a mortgage on all the homes
and other property of all the people in the Nation."
(Congressional Record March 9, 1933).
The people were now prohibited from being able to pay their debts at law
(i.e., with lawful money/gold) and were forced to mortgage their goods and
services to one of the banks or lending institutions in order to obtain
Federal Reserve bank Notes in order to "discharge" (not lawfully "pay")
their debts. The people now being classified as the "enemy" also became the
captured chattel property of the United States to secure the debt (Federal
Reserve bank notes).
The governors of the states of the Union capitulated to the demands of
President Roosevelt on March 6, 1933 (Roosevelt papers 1933). The former
states of the Union became nothing more than political subdivisions or
occupied territories of the belligerent corporate United States (Butler v.
U.S. Supreme Court, 1936).
The former judicial Courts (Courts of Justice) now took silent judicial
notice of the Maritime (International) In Rem jurisdiction, and took the
role as Executive Officers [not Judicial] to enforce the Federal and State
statutes in all cases whatsoever. The Judges and Lawyers in essence became
nothing more than Executive Political Hatchet Men of their branch of
government to enforce the public policy statute enacted by Congress and to
enforce performance on this new commercial paper (Federal Reserve bank
notes) in order to give it some sort of value.
Once the People were declared to be the "Enemy", they lost all their
inalienable rights under the (unlawfully suspended) Constitution and Bill
of Rights. Since 1933, the American people have had no inalienable rights
to life, liberty, or property. …

Emergency Powers Fraud
by William T. Holmes
(January 1996 San Mateo Libertarian newsletter)
…For those of you unaware of the history of Emergency Powers, I include
here [a monograph on the subject].
In 1917 the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 USC Appendix) was passed. It
allowed the president to "prohibit, restrict, license or regulate" any
transactions by citizens or corporations of the enemy countries operating
within the U.S. during WWI. It was conveniently not revoked even though the
war and emergencies ended.
On 24 March 1918 the Act was amended and its scope greatly expanded by
adding "hoarding, melting" to the description of foreign exchange and by
deleting the word 'such' from two places in "...and he may require any such
person engaged in any such transactions..."
In the early 1920's, the Federal Resesrve's loose money policy encouraged a
lot of people, especially farmers, to over-extend themselves. When the
Federal Reserve contracted the money supply during the late '20s, it
initiated an economic collapse that was sustained and deepened by the
Smoot-Hawley tariff of 1930, which raised rates as high as 49%, purportedly
to act as a price support for America's farmers. Hoover's interventions
[helped to] create a world-wide recession.
On 6 March 1933 FDR issued Proclamation 2039: under the authority of the
Trading with the Enemy Act -- "[T]he President... may prohibit... by means
of licenses, or otherwise... the export [or] hoarding of gold or silver
coin" and ceased redeeming the legal tender (Bills of Credit) for gold coin
(lawful money).
On 9 March 1933 FDR convened the 10th Federal Congress in special session.
Congress declared a state of emergency (H.R. 1491, No. 1) and
rubber-stamped ex-post facto Proclamations, granting FDR the same powers he
would have in times of war. The Congress passed the Emergency Banking Act
without reading or debating it (some say a newspaper was put into the
hopper to represent the bill, which was still being written), effectively
suspending the Constitution and imposing martial law on Americans under the
provisions of Article I, Section 9, Clause 2. Once an emergency is
declared, the common law and Constitutional guarantees are abolished, and
we fall under the absolute will of the government, e.g., public policy.
(Before 1933 we had "Statutes at Large"; federal legislation is now called
"Public Law".) The President becomes Commander in Chief: in effect
Constitutional Dictator, acting under the Law of Necessity, the Law of War.
The 10th Congress passed without debate the Bank Conservation Act, amending
section 5, subsection b of the Trading with the Enemy Act to accommodate
Proclamation 2039.
The functional result of the changes:
"During time of war or during any other period of national emergency
declared by the President, the President may, through any agency that he
may designate... investigate, regulate, or prohibit, under such rules and
regulations as he may prescribe, by means of licenses or otherwise, any
transactions... defined by the President... by any person within the United
States or any place subject to the jurisdiction thereof; and the President
may require any person engaged in any transaction referred to in this
subdivision to furnish under oath, complete information relative thereto,
including the production of any books of account, contracts, letters or
other papers, in connection therewith in the custody or control of such
person, either before or after such transaction is completed."
Immediately thereafter FDR issued Proclamation 2040: under the authority of
the amended Trading with the Enemy Act, "[I]n view of such continuing
national emergency... all terms and provisions of said Proclamation of
March 6, 1933... are... in full force and effect until further proclamation
by the President." 48 Stat. 1691. The New Deal was not to be temporary.
People and their property became as chattels for unlimited obligations of
the United States.
FDR's interventions created massive dependency on the federal government
and converted a deep recession into a long-lasting world-wide depression,
fertile ground for Hitler. The Democrat Party and ... the Republican Party
continue this tradition.
The Act (now 50 U.S.C. 1622) is STILL in full force and effect. It is
referred to as the source of authority for much of the Public Law found in
the United States Code. Every president since FDR has declared or
re-declared a national emergency to retain their martial law powers. An
amendment to the Emergency Powers Act was passed in 1977 and enacted in
1979.
It requires the declaration be done annually, but that didn't dissuade our
Presidents. Like clockwork they declare or extend another bogus national
emergency. The threats posed to the U.S. by Granada, Panama, and Haiti
justified a few of the more recent of a long line of national emergency
frauds. Here is … [one from Clinton]:
THE WHITE HOUSE

For Immediate Release
November 9, 1995
NOTICE
CONTINUATION OF EMERGENCY REGARDING WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order No. 12938, I declared a national
emergency with respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States posed
by the proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons ("weaponsof mass destruction") and the means of delivering such weapons. Because the
proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering
them continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, the national
emergency declared on November 14, 1994, must continue in effect beyond
November 14, 1995. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the
National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing the national
emergency declared in Executive Order No. 12938.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to
the Congress.

This page is dedicated for the sole purpose of publishing information as it
becomes available regarding what is being done around the country to
educate the people and our leaders on the local, state and federal levels
about the statutes governing our land that have effectively suspended our
Constitution and the Common Law-God's Law, under Title 12 USC 95(a) and
95(b) also known as the National Emergency in Banking Relief Act and the
Trading with Enemy Act of 1917, as amended. We will also post information
regarding 10th Amendment resolutions as well.
Resolution #5, as adopted unanimously by the GOP of Texas Executive
Committee 6/17/95
Resolution as adopted by the California Republican Assembly 3/26/95
10th Amendment Resolution as adopted by the Alaska State Legislature on
2/15/95
Resolution of the Republican Party of Texas
Restoration of the United States Constitution
Adopted by unanimous vote on June 17, 1995 by the Republican Party of Texas
State Executive Committee RESOLUTION # 5
Whereas, The Republican Party of Texas recognizes that acts of the
Congressional body and the Office of the President of the United States of
America created an emergency condition, and that on and after March 6, 1933
and March 9, 1933 the same said Public Offices effectively impaired and
suspended the Constitution for the United States of America under pretense
of these same created emergency conditions, and that the impairments and
disabilities yet exist and are in full force and effect throughout the
Nation and several States of the Union as of the date of this resolution”;
and
Whereas, there has occurred continuous breach of trust, duty and obligation
imposed under authority of the Constitution for the United States of
America, resulting in a continued abridgment of the Rights, Privileges,
Immunities, and Liberties of Citizens and others, all committed under
pretense of a continuing national crisis and furtherance of emergency
conditions”; and
Whereas, In the "Foreword" of United States Senate Report 93-549 it states
"Since March 9, 1933, the United States of America has been in a declared
state of national emergency which has not been resolved during the last 62
years"; and
Whereas, Senate Report 93-549 admits and professes that "This vast range of
powers taken together confers enough authority to rule our country without
reference to normal constitutional process"; and
Whereas, in Title 12 United States Code it is arbitrarily declared that
"The actions, regulation, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations
heretofore or hereafter taken, promulgated, made, or issued by the
President of the United States or the Secretary of Treasury since March 4,
1933, pursuant to the authority conferred by subsection (b) of the Act of
October 6, 1917, as amended [12 USCS sec 95a], are hereby approved and
confirmed.. (Mar. 9, 1933, c.1, Title 1, sec 1, 48 Stat. 1.)". We therefore
recognize that every order issued by the President since March 9, 1933, or
any order issued thereafter was and is automatically approved and
confirmed. These powers being conferred under purported authority of the
Act of October 6, 1917, as amended on March 9, 1933, are strictly the War
Powers, and have been wrongfully used against the several States of the
Union and the People (See Stoehr vs. Wallace 255 US 239); and
Whereas, our forefathers recognizing these same conditions wrote to the
British Parliament and King of Great Britain in The Declaration of Rights
of 1774: "Whereas, since the close of the last war, the British Parliament,
claiming a power of right to bind the people of America, by statute, in all
cases whatsoever, hath in some acts expressly imposed taxes on them, and in
others, under various pretenses, but in fact for the purpose of raising a
revenue, hath imposed rates and duties payable in these colonies
established a board of commissioners, with unconstitutional powers, and
extended the jurisdiction of courts of admiralty, not only for collecting
the said duties, but for the trial of causes merely arising within the body
of a county.
And Whereas, in consequence of other statutes, judges, who before held only
estates at will in their offices, have been made dependent on the Crown
alone for their salaries, and standing armies kept in times of peace...
Today under pretense of the emergency and reorganization the mischief has
been recreated and reinstituted within the Nation and several States of the
Union, and has once again left the people without any plain, speedy or
adequate remedy, and is wholly contrary to the true original extent and end
of the Union and civil Government as ordained and established by the
People; and
Whereas, In November, 1994 our Republican State Governors unanimously
adopted the Williamsburg Resolve. In it, they said: "The challenges to the
liberties of the people... comes from our own Federal government that has
defied, and now ignores, virtually every constitutional limit fashioned by
the framers to confine its reach and thus to guard the freedoms of the
people" and that "Federal action has exceeded the clear bounds of... the
Constitution, and thus violated the rights guaranteed to the people"; and
Whereas, George Washington forewarned the Nation and several States of the
Union in his 1796 farewell address "If in the opinion of the people the
distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any
particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way the
Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for
though this in one instance may be the instrument of good, it is the
customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed... "; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Republican Party of Texas being
duly apprised of the continuing emergency declared on March 9, 1933,
demands that the Gold and Silver Coin be fully reinstated and maintained as
the lawful money and tender of payment of debts within the United States of
America, and that any and all notes and obligations heretofore or
hereinafter issued be brought back to and maintained at par value with the
said Coin"; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that The Republican Party of Texas hereby demands
the rescinding of the Emergency Banking Relief Act of March 9, 1933 and all
subsequent related acts thereunder and demands a Presidential proclamation
declaring the related state of national emergency declared on March 9, 1933
terminated thereby returning the United States of America to its original
peacetime Constitutional Republic.
