Need Hurricane Aid? In One Texas City, If
You Boycott Israel, You May Be Out Of
Luck

Hurricane Harvey’s floodwaters damaged many homes in the Texas city of Dickinson, and residents are applying for assistance and working to repair their properties.
But Dickinson’s application for repair grants is raising eyebrows. Alongside standard items such as project descriptions and grant amounts, the city application reads:
“By executing this Agreement below, the Applicant verifies that the Applicant: (1) does not boycott Israel; and (2) will not boycott Israel during the term of this agreement.”
In doing so, the application appears to make eligibility for hurricane relief funds contingent on political beliefs regarding Israel, which the American Civil Liberties Union describes as unconstitutional.
“The First Amendment protects Americans’ right to boycott, and the government cannot condition hurricane relief or any other public benefit on a commitment to refrain from protected political expression,” ACLU of Texas Legal Director Andre Segura said in a statement.
A city official told NPR that Dickinson is simply following a recently passed state law: “The city has nothing to do with it.”
They are referring to House Bill 89, which came into force on September 1. But Rep. Phil King, who authored the legislation, told NPR he was baffled about why it was being applied here.
“We’re eating this morning, having my oatmeal, and I see the article in the paper. And it’s like, ‘Oh no, what could they possibly be thinking?’” King said.
Gov. Greg Abbott signed the bill into law in May, saying that it was aimed at targeting companies that are involved in boycotting, divesting or sanctioning Israel, also known as BDS.
“As Israel’s number one trading partner in the United States, Texas is proud to reaffirm its support for the people of Israel and we will continue to build on our historic partnership,” Abbott stated. “Anti-Israel policies are anti-Texas policies, and we will not tolerate such actions against an important ally.”
The law is limited in scope to companies, however – and the city has not explained why it would apply to all applicants for grants, which are open to people rebuilding both homes and businesses.
And, King adds, the law is aimed at preventing taxpayer money from going to companies boycotting Israel. But Dickinson’s hurricane relief grant fund is made up of donations. “Those are not taxpayer dollars so they have nothing to do with the anti-BDS legislation,” he says.
“It’s not uncommon when you’ve got brand-new legislation, particularly substantive legislation, for it to be misinterpreted or for there to be some confusion,” King says. “And I think that’s all that’s going on here. I think it’s just a simple misunderstanding by the city.”
Dickinson’s grant application was put up on the city website on Monday and remains posted as of Friday afternoon.
Supporters of the BDS movement say it aims to put economic pressure on Israel in support of Palestinian independence, NPR’s Daniel Estrin has reported, while Israel says “the boycott movement seeks to destroy Israel as a Jewish state altogether.”
The ACLU has pointed out examples of other cities in Texas requiring potential contractors to state in writing that they are not involved in boycotting Israel.
For example, government contract applications from the cities of Galveston, Austin and San Antonio require a signed statement that the potential contractor is not boycotting.
The ACLU has also filed a federal lawsuit over a similar Kansas law, “on behalf of a high school math teacher who is being required by the state to certify that she won’t boycott Israel if she wants to take part in a teacher training program.”

COMMERCIAL LIENS: A MOST POTENT WEAPON
Version 1.0
The Commercial Lien STRATEGY – Background
Faced with corrupt lawyers and judges, NO LITIGANT CAN EXPECT TO WIN IN COURT by simply playing defense. TO BEAT THEM, YOU MUST BE ABLE TO …SCARE THEM.
YOU MUST BE ABLE TO make them respect you, and that means you must be able to take the offense — ATTACK THEM PERSONALLY.
Unfortunately, judges, lawyers, and other government officials enjoy various levels of personal immunity provided by both law and “professional courtesy.” How do you sue a lawyer for malpractice? You hire another lawyer — if you can find one who’ll take the case.
HOW DO YOU SUE AN….IRS agent…FOR VIOLATING YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS ?
Only with great difficulty.
HOW DO YOU SUE A JUDGE for railroading you in court? You don’t.
As a practical matter, private citizens can’t sue the President of the United States, a Governor, judge, or even an IRS agent for failing to obey or enforce the laws. If we try to sue in court to compel our government officials to obey the law and perform their lawful duties, the JUDGES ROUTINELY IGNORE our petitions AND LAUGH us out of court.
Because legal and de facto immunities shield government personnel from being sued for committing crimes against the People, THE PUBLIC IS legally disarmed, UNABLE TO AGGRESSIVELY SUE the GOVERNMENT OR ITS AGENTS and compel them to obey the Law.
As a result, the public’s legal posture is fundamentally defensive: we try to duck, dodge, and hide in legal loopholes to defend ourselves against the government and the courts.
We try to escape, evade, and avoid, but WE SELDOM COUNTER-ATTACK against our antagonists, largely because WE THINK THERE ARE NO LAWFUL WEAPONS TO DO SO.
HOWEVER, it appears that A POWERFUL OFFENSIVE LEGAL WEAPON MAY NOW HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED, tested, and proven for common Citizens — THE COMMERCIAL LIEN.
WE DON’T TRY to SUE a government official for failing to perform his lawful duties.
Instead, WE SIMPLY FILE A LIEN THAT ENCUMBERS THE OFFICIAL’S PERSONAL PROPERTY and CREDIT RATING LIKE A TON of BRICKS until he voluntarily satisfies our demand to perform his lawful duty, and we, in turn, voluntarily agree to excise the lien.
The HELPLESSNESS of JUDGES
The COMMERCIAL LIEN, which IS AUTHORIZED by the COMMON LAW and by Title 15 of the United States Code (USC), is reportedly…THE SAME LIEN the IRS USES TO TAKE AMERICANS’ HOMES and CARS.
However, some pro se litigants do not depend upon Title 15, but upon the common law of negotiable instruments (a.k.a. Commercial Law).
As such, IT’S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE A COMMERCIAL LIEN WITHOUT THE APPROVAL of the INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT who filed the lien.
Although A COMMERCIAL LIEN can be challenged by a common law court or by a 7th Amendment jury trial, it DOES NOT REQUIRE A COURT PROCESS or a court judgment FOR IT’S ESTABLISHMENT,
validity, OR EXECUTION.
Therefore, it appears that the courts may not be able to simply extinguish this lien on their own discretion (or on motion from the lien debtors) without the voluntary approval of the person who filed the lien.
Traditionally, these LIENS CAN ONLY BE REMOVED BY the VOLUNTARY DECISION of the PERSON WHO FILED the LIEN, by the decision of a constitutional common-law jury trial, or by waiting 99 or 100 years. Since the common law has been smothered in the U.S.A., all JUDGES ARE ESSENTIALLY POWERLESS to OVERCOME the LIENS.
