The Restore Rebuild Podcast with Jacques Israel Had Me Back for a Follow Up Interview

In this 30-minute audio-only interview, we talked primarily about the public pressure campaign that I have launched to force the State Senate to comply with federal and state laws.

In the last podcast I did with Jacques, we talked about the Notice of Legal Violations that I had sent to the State Senate.

In this podcast, we talked about the next step that I’ve taken in the legal process: I’ve served the State Senate a Writ of Quo Warranto forcing Scott Wiener and the others working unlawfully without an oath to vacate their jobs, to void Weiner’s legislation (since he had no legal standing to make legislation) and to prosecute Wiener (working without an oath is a felony punishable with three years in prison). I also mentioned that the State of CA stopped issuing surety bonds when Reagan was governor, making the entire CA government illegitimate since then. Now I am asking people to call and demand that the State Senate comply with the laws.

Jacques and I also touched on corruption at the Franchise Tax Board (the bona-fide criminal schemes to overcharge taxpayers and the FTB executives working unlawfully without oaths). We talked a little bit about the resurrection of Constitutional Law (AKA Common Law or Law of the Land). And I shared my personal experience with a policy created by Kamala Harris when she was a prosecutor.

I hope you find it informative and worth your time to listen.

Update: Restore Rebuild had me back at the beginning of October for another interview about Step 3: the Certificate of Default and the petition I started to remove Wiener from office.

Note: I am not suicidal, I don’t have depression issues, I am a careful driver, I rarely drink alcohol, and I do not use drugs of any kind (not even aspirin). My family lives a wholesome life. If something happens to me or my family that is out of character for us, we were set up by the State of California as revenge for exposing their crimes.

I Was Featured on the Restore Rebuild Podcast with Jacques Israel!

We discuss my efforts to hold the California government accountable to “we the people.” The summary is that it is up to each one of us to contact government agents to demand accountability — the only solution right now is enough public pressure to force the government’s hand.

FTB June 2024 Board Meeting: Spending Our Tax Dollars to Stalk Us, Remove Kids from Homes and Pay Illegals; Probably Still Improperly Imposing Penalties

I wanted to bring three items of concern regarding how the State of California spends our tax dollars. At the Franchise Tax Board’s June 24, 2024 Board Meeting, they discussed:

I. Items 5B and 6: Cal EITC Credit as a stalking tool

I have posted before about California’s obsession with getting people to file tax returns, even when they do not make enough money to be required to file tax returns. One of the ways that FTB tries to get people to file is by offering “carrots.” 

Their biggest carrot is called Cal EITC and it is basically money back. People can get money back from the state even if they didn’t pay any income taxes in the first place. The State of California has a budget of $1.1 billion for this incentive.

Seventh ORIM Claim Filed Against FTB Executives for Not Having Executed Oaths. Claim Also Filed with California Auditor’s Office

Quick background: Every government employee is required to take an Oath and to have an insurance policy or bond. ORIM is the insurance agency for State of California employees. For those of you who are looking to file your own claims, here is info on how to do so. Before you order an oath, check to see if I already have it posted. If you would like some models to follow, here is the firstsecondthirdfourthfifth and sixth claims that I’ve filed. .

This is my seventh Claim to ORIM, which was filed on September 23, 2023.

I also filed the claim with the California Auditor’s Office. I’ve sent a lot of claims to the California Auditor’s Office over the years re: FTB’s accounting fraud schemes, but I’ve mostly given up on the Auditor because it appears they didn’t do anything to stop the schemes.

However, I’d tried to turn these executives in to CALPers for pension fraud (since they were working fraudulently, that means their pensions need to be voided), and CALPers told me that the Auditor’s office was the proper jurisdiction for pension fraud investigations. Hence the claim with the Auditor.

2023 FTB Annual Taxpayer Bill of Rights Meeting

On December 6, 2023, the Franchise Tax Board had its Annual Taxpayer Bill of Rights Meeting. I’ll link the full video of the meeting and the transcripts when they are published.

Meanwhile, here is a video of the speech that I made at the meeting:

The full 2+ hour board meeting is here. I speak from 1:42:26 to 1:47:38 (It was a looonnnggg meeting).

Here is the text of my speech. Since the speech was limited to 5-minutes, I had previously submitted more detailed written requests to FTB’s Board Members, Taxpayer Advocate and Executive Staff.

Seven of the twelve items are issues that I have addressed in the past: 1. The Taxpayer Rights Advocate should be addressing constitutional issues. 2. FTB to stop unlawfully imposing wage garnishments, levies and liens. 3. Disclose policies and procedures regarding the application of payments (3 specific items on this topic). 4. Stop unlawfully withholding credit elect payments from married couples. 5. Refer to taxpayers as constituents because we are FTB’s employers, not customers.

There were four new items, too. 1. I addressed the high number of executive staff that do not have oaths or bonds as required by law. 2. I requested that all statutes be reviewed to ensure that FTB’s policies and procedures follow the laws as written, with no words omitted or inserted. 3. I asked what data FTB procures from the low income people not required to file a tax return. 4. I asked why Bill Hilson made so much more money in 2022 than in previous years.

I also requested clarification of an item that I brought up last year: the “no payment” account that appears to be an off-the-books spending account. Last year, I had asked if the funds belonged to FTB or another agency (item #4). FTB had responded that the estimated tax payments are immediately turned over to the State Controller (SCO). I asked for clarification as to whether “no payments” go to the SCO or if they are only turned over once they are identified as an estimated tax payment.

Update: FTB Responded on February 1, 2023. The whole response is riddled with problems. I’ll try to write a rebuttal soon, but it is important for everyone to know that FTB said no, they will not make the executives sign properly executed oaths.

Note: I am not suicidal, I don’t have depression issues, I am a careful driver, I rarely drink alcohol, and I do not use drugs of any kind (not even aspirin). My family lives a wholesome life. If something happens to me or my family that is out of character for us, we were set up by the State of California as revenge for exposing their crimes.

Fifth ORIM Claim Filed! This One is Also Against FTB Board of Directors and Executives for Refusing to Disclose Policy and Procedure Surrounding NPAs

Quick background: Every government employee is required to take an Oath and to have an insurance policy or bond. ORIM is the insurance agency for State of California employees. For those of you who are looking to file your own claims, here is info on how to do so. Before you order an oath, check to see if I already have it posted. If you would like some models to follow, here is the firstsecondthird and fourth claims that I’ve filed.

I have Accused fifteen individuals from four different agencies of violating my rights under California Right R&TC Section 21006(b)(2) and for violating 18 USC §1001 (a)(1) by refusing to disclose FTB’s policies and procedures regarding the issuance of Notice of Proposed Assessment (NPA) forms and processing of Protests to said NPA forms. 

For several years now, I have been asking FTB to disclose the laws which justify 1. Not applying all payments made on the NPA form and 2. Denying the Taxpayer Right to Protest on the basis that the NPA does not reflect the full funds collected by FTB. FTB has been continually evasive and continually fails to provide the relevant statutes. It appears to me that NPAs being falsely issued is a lynchpin to the accounting fraud schemes.

I was excited about the third ORIM claim that I filed, and I am even more excited about this fourth claim! I have Accused fifteen individuals from four different agencies of violating my rights under California Right R&TC Section 21006(b)(2), for violating 18 USC §1001 (a)(1) by refusing to disclose FTB’s policies and procedures regarding exactly when payments that are supposed to be applied immediately upon receipt are actually applied, and for violating 18 US Code 242 by not allowing me full and free access of information in accordance with my rights, which is a Class A misdemeanor.
