Irwin Schiff has been filing "Zero Income Tax Returns" for the last 13 years and the Government has not charged
him with tax evasion for any of those years. Perhaps if former Congressman Jim Trafficant, Leona Helmsley, and
Pete Rose had filed "zero" returns, instead of the traditional returns they filed, they would not have been charged, convicted, or
jailed for tax evasion either.
That an entire nation of supposedly intelligent human beings could be so thoroughly hood winked, must rank as the greatest
and most spectacular hoax of all time, with the phenomenon of millions of Americans scurrying to IRS offices each April 15th
comparable to lemmings marching into the sea.
The Biggest Con
Irwin Schiff's first book, an economic classic, will give you a thorough understanding of economics and is guaranteed to make you an expert on the subject--even if you read nothing else! It will convince you that most American "economists" don't know what they are talking about, which is why this country is in such deep economic and financial trouble. It provides irrefutable proof of how the federal government has been continually undermining the American economy and forcing a lower standard of living on us all. The book covers many complex topics such as why all U.S. coin and currency is counterfeit, how the U.S. declared bankruptcy in 1971, how the government hides and doesn't report 90 percent of its debts, and the absurdity of its gross national product statistics. The Biggest Con explains this in Irwin Schiff's humorous and entertaining style.
"The single most important book on the status of the nation that I have ever read," said Howard Ruff, editor of The Ruff Times.
Soft cover, 359 pages.
We are on the weekend break following week 4 of the trial. The prosecution has rested its case and the defense has already called 3 or 4 witnesses all on Thursday. Next week starts the first full week of the defense presenting its case. No court on Monday for Columbus Day holiday. Stay tuned for more.
Mike the Radio Rebel says he took some more pictures tonight and will be sending them into the blog ASAP. Audio reports from todays proceedings are coiming in at triallogs.blogspot.com.
To all tax patriots and advocates of liberty, A terrific victory to report!!! The IRS had filed a 26 USC Sections 6700, 6701, 7402, 7407, and 7408 complaint against Lynda Wall at Paralegals to try to shut her up and get her client list. Lynda is one ballsy lady. She stood her ground and fought the bastards. She finally earned the rightful dismissal of the complaint and a withdrawal of the arrest warrant. I am elated for her. What a terrific example Lynda sets for us all.
Mike Golden the Radio Rebel reports that the prosecution has rested its case. Listen to the live report from the trial in Las Vegas at triallogs.blogspot.com.
Below are photos just in from Mike Golden the Radio Rebel who is in Las Vegas for the Irwin Schiff trial. These are photos taken late Wednesday night, October 5, 2005. These photos were taken in Irwin Schiff's office in Las Vegas, Nevada. The photos show Irwin Schiff talking on the telephone with Mark Yannone for the nightly triallogs blog audioblog report. Also shown are some supporters of Irwin Schiff sitting in Schiff's office and closeups of Jan Lindsey FBI service documentation.
I have received the pictures from Mike. Some good action photos of Irwin Schiff in his office. I'm having a little technical difficulty getting them posted to the blog. I will keep trying and hopefully get them posted for you here soon. Stay tuned. dk
Mike Golden just called and told me that he has more pictures coming through to us for the blog tonight. I'll get them posted on here first thing in the morning. Have a good night and stay tuned for more.
I think the prosecution may rest its case tomorrow. I haven't been able to listen to the audioblogs yet tonight and I didn't hear anything for sure but I think the prosecution is getting pretty close to resting its case and the defense should begin presenting its case either tomorrow or Monday. Stay tuned for more.
...the court orders that the action be and hereby is dismissed without prejudice.
"The IRS was after me because they claimed I sold or promoted abusive tax shelters. Since 2003, I have refused government demands to produce my client lists, books, and records. So they decided to try to strong-arm me into unlawful compliance by getting the Department of Justice (DOJ) to file a petition with the United Stated District Court to enforce the IRS's administrative summons. I still refused to comply with the government's unlawful demands, so the DOJ got the corrupt judge to issue a warrant for my arrest for them to coercively incarcerate me until I comply.
Blogger Status. Tuesday, October 04, 2005. Blogger will be down tomorrow (Wednesday, October 5th) from 5-7pm PST for some network maintenance. ... status.blogger.com/ - 10k - Oct 4, 2005 - Cached - Similar pages
Blogger was down for two hours tonight. So all blogspot blogs were down for two hours this evening, including this blog and triallogs.blogspot.com.
We lost a good 6 pm PT audioblog report from Mike the Radio Rebel at triallogs blog.
We also lost an audioblog report I did with Mike here at this blog where we talked about the pictures that Mike sent in with his camera cell phone which are posted below.
Turns out the retired FBI plaque is a service plaque brought into the office by Jan Lindsey while he was there visiting with Irwin Schiff. Apparently Jan Lindsey is retired FBI. Mike told us all about it on the audioblog report but unfortunately that audioblog report was lost forever because we did it while blogger was down.
UPDATE: Looks like Mike Golden's 6 pm PT report just came through at trial logs blog. Cool deal. Didn't lose it after all. Just got delayed a couple of hours. Hopefully the audiblogs I did here with Mike Golden talking about the pictures will come through in a little while. I don't see them here yet though. Stay tuned.
UPDATE II: Scratch that last update. I must have been seeing things. Looks like the Mike Golden report I was seeing was from this morning at around 9 a.m. ET. Maybe we did lose the audioblogs that were done during the outage. We'll see.
UPDATE FROM DAVID JAHN: I was able to recover and post the 6 pm Mike Golden call.
Below are photos sent in from Mike Golden the Radio Rebel. Mike used his camera cell phone to take these pictures and send them in to the blog from Irwin Schiff's office in Las Vegas. The photos were taken on late Tuesday night October 4, 2005. I don't know who is on the FBI plaque but apparently that is some sort of retired FBI agent plaque that is hanging on the wall in Irwin Schiff's office in Las Vegas. I'll try to get Mike on the phone for a quick audioblog about the pictures later today. Stay tuned for more.
I just called and spoke with Jan Lindsey in Nevada. He is on his way to Las Vegas to talk to Irwin Schiff and to try to rustle up another on location reporter for the triallogs blog. Stay tuned for more. dk
The criminal tax trial of Irwin Schiff entered its fourth week Monday with a cantankerous Schiff apparently making significant headway in repelling the government’s prosecution witnesses who have testified thus far.
Rejected an appeal from Nevada tax protester Irwin Schiff who was barred from selling a book that claims paying federal income tax is voluntary. (Schiff v. United States, 04-1383)
My computer at home crapped out on me. I have it in the shop for repair. They say it could be three to five days. Meanwhile, stay tuned to triallogs blog for the latest reports from the trial in Las Vegas. Thank you for your support. dk
Alvis Jenkins Slams North Lake Tahoe Bonanza Smear Piece
I was less than appreciative of the column on Tax Tips by Jeff Quinn. This was a low cut of a true patriot (Irwin Schiff) who stands for the truth in the tax laws. The government doesn't want Mr. Schiff to expose the corruption that has been going on for over 60 years.
Another thing is Mr. Quinn should be taking a course in English Grammer because he states that the IRS defines "Gross Income as all income ... etc " and he should know that the word being defined cannot be used twice within the same sentence. It is obvious that the information Mr. Quinn has in regards to former days of Mr. Schiff and his dealings with the government on the issue of income taxes is less than sufficient. Why there is no provision within your news columns to rebut the writer is in question?

Thank you very much Alvis Jenkins! And thank you North Lake Tahoe Bonanza for printing the correction.
I just tried triallogs.blogspot.com and it seems to be down. I sent an email to David Jahn asking him to take a look. Stay tuned for more. dk
UPDATE: I just called and spoke with David Jahn and he says it's working fine from where he is. I still can't see it. I'll wait to hear from Mark Yannone or Hank Goltz and see how it looks from their end.
UPDATE 2: Trouble must have been on my end. Everything seems to be working fine now at triallogs blog for me. False alarm. That was weird. Don't know what it was. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming. Thanks for your support.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 2004
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
IRWIN SCHIFF AND TWO ASSOCIATES INDICTED FOR TAX FRAUD
WASHINGTON D.C. - Eileen J. O’Connor, Assistant Attorney General for the Tax Division, United States Department of Justice;
Daniel G. Bogden, U.S. Attorney for the District of Nevada; and Nancy Jardini, Chief, Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation
Division announced today that in Las Vegas, Nevada, a federal grand jury returned a thirty-three (33) count indictment charging Irwin
Schiff, Cynthia Neun, and Lawrence Cohen with conspiracy (18 U.S.C. §371), and aiding and assisting in the preparation and filing of
fraudulent federal income tax returns (26 U.S.C. §7206(2)). Messrs. Schiff and Cohen are also charged with income tax evasion
(26 U.S.C. §7201). Ms. Neun is also charged with willfully failing to file federal income tax returns (26 U.S.C. §7203), Social Security
disability fraud (42 U.S.C. §408) and theft of government property (18 U.S.C. §641).
Read here.
For those who have listened to Irwin's
audioblog of 9/21 @ 09:17 and are interested in the "two documents" that he mentions as being required by the Code but
have not been produced by the government and are called for in his 12 page motion, you can find those
two documents here.
This is his 6 page reply, but it contains the info. 1)The Secretary is authorized: 26 USC 6201(a) which is supported by the
definitions at 26 USC 7701(a)(11)and 26 USC 7701(a)(12) AND 2)Delegations of authority must be published: 44 USC 1505 (Chap 15).
Since the government does not want the American public to discover the truth about how it illegally enforces the payment
of income taxes (and how the public might protect itself) it persuaded U.S. District Court Judge, Lloyd D. George to enjoin me
from selling “The Federal Mafia:How the Government Illegally Imposes and Unlawfully Collects Income Taxes" (and presumably other
information as well). The following is the first page of Judge George’s 35 page Order. To fully appreciate the utter
lawlessness of his Order, be sure to read the first paragraph of page 34 in which Judge George enjoins me from alleging
some 6 specific “positions” in connection with income taxes. Then read the pleadings I filed in connection with my criminal
and civil case involving these "positions," especially those pleadings involving the meaning of “income.”
If you're worrying about income taxes you think you owe the government - stop worrying because legally you don't "owe"
the government one dime, since there's no law requiring anyone to pay income tax. It doesn't matter if you earned millions
in salaries, fees, commissions, gambling and lottery winnings etc., and additional millions in stock and other kinds of
trading profits. For income tax purposes, you can legally report "zero" income and pay no income taxes regardless of
how much you might have earned.
In 1986, 99.5 million Americans were tricked into filing and paying federal income taxes when legally; they didn't have to
do either. If this statement shocks you, it is only because you and the rest of the nation have been thoroughly deceived by
the federal government (with federal courts playing the key role), and an army of accountants, lawyers, and other tax preparers.
All of these have a vested interest in keeping you ignorant concerning the real nature of federal income taxes.
