Homesteading with Mike & Leah: Legal Battles in Michigan

Fighting for the Homestead: Legal Battles and Land Patents

Introduction

Host Michael Dean welcomes Mike and Leah back to discuss the progression of their homestead defense strategy. The episode focuses on the practical and legal challenges they have faced following the foreclosure of their two properties, detailing their confrontation with aggressive process servers, their disappointing experiences in state court regarding "Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction" motions, and their escalation to federal court to enforce Federal Land Patents.

Detailed Summary

The Foreclosure and Eviction Escalation

Following a foreclosure sale on April 24th and the expiration of the redemption period in late October, Mike and Leah faced the beginning of eviction proceedings. Although the bank holds a sheriff's deed, the couple maintains that no third party purchased the debt, meaning the bank retained the paper. The situation escalated when a court officer—not a sheriff—aggressively served papers at their business property. The officer, wearing a bulletproof vest and brandishing a firearm, attempted to intimidate the couple and gain entry, despite their posting of "Federal Property" and "No Trespassing" signs. Mike and Leah stood their ground, asserting their rights as successors to a land patent, though the officer dismissed their claims and taped notices regarding rent diversion to the tenants.

State Court Proceedings and Due Process Concerns

On January 8th, Mike and Leah attended two separate hearings for their properties. In the first hearing regarding their home, the judge completely ignored their filed "Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction," treating the appearance as a routine preliminary hearing despite Mike attempting to place his documents on the record. In the second hearing regarding their business (an LLC), the judge refused to let Mike represent himself, citing Michigan law that requires corporations to be represented by an attorney. Mike argued that he is the sole member and that no attorney would file their specific land patent arguments, but the judge struck their documents from the record. The host, Michael Dean, described the proceedings as a "lynching" of due process, noting that the judge cleared the Zoom audience to prevent witnesses to the dismissal of their arguments.

Legal Escalation Timeline

April 24

Foreclosure sale occurs (Bank retains title).

Oct 24

Redemption period expires; Sheriff's deed becomes effective.

Nov/Dec

Eviction process begins; Aggressive service of papers by court officer.

Jan 08

State Court Hearings: Motions to dismiss ignored; LLC representation denied.

Current

Federal Lawsuit filed; Fighting Magistrate referral.

Federal Strategy and Community Impact

Realizing the state courts (equity courts) would not acknowledge their federal land patent rights, the couple filed a federal lawsuit. They encountered administrative hurdles, such as the court clerk mislabeling their case as a standard foreclosure and Section 1983 civil rights case, which led to an automatic referral to a Magistrate Judge. Mike and Leah have formally objected, demanding an Article III judge to hear their constitutional arguments. Despite rumors in their town labeling them "sovereign citizens"—a claim they vehemently deny, clarifying they are simply "successors to land patents"—they remain committed. They view this fight not just as a personal financial matter, but as a necessary battle to establish a precedent that protects all Americans' right to permanent, unassailable shelter.

To-Do / Next Steps

Federal Court Action: Mike and Leah must await the court's response to their objection regarding the Magistrate Judge referral and the request for an Article III judge.

State Court Preparation: The couple needs to prepare for an upcoming in-person hearing for the second eviction case, where they hope the lack of "fringes on the flag" indicates a fairer venue.

Upcoming Broadcast: Michael Dean plans to host a show next week featuring special guest Saskia to discuss further developments.

Conclusion

Mike and Leah's journey highlights a systemic friction between state statutes and federal land patent claims. Despite setbacks in state court and administrative challenges in federal court, they remain resolved to exhaust every legal avenue. Their ultimate goal is to secure their property rights and create a legal pathway for others to protect their homesteads from corporate overreach.

Introduction

Host Alan J. Cook recounts a challenging week in Bethesda, Maryland, following a massive snowstorm that dumped 1.5 feet of snow and brought freezing temperatures. The episode focuses on a specific "Day From Hell" (Monday), illustrating how perseverance, creative problem-solving, and sheer grit allowed him to fulfill client commitments and keep his business running despite equipment failures and exhaustion.

Detailed Summary

The "Day From Hell": Vehicle and Equipment Crisis

The week began with a logistical nightmare as the host found all three of his work vehicles incapacitated by the storm. His primary box truck was plowed in by three feet of snow, his backup SUV was unregistered, and his Dodge Ram had a damaged bumper blocking the tire. After six hours of struggle in 18-degree weather—including a failed attempt to jumpstart the SUV with AAA—he successfully used a "come-along" ratchet tool to manually bend the Dodge Ram's bumper back into place, making the truck drivable.

Compounding the stress, upon finally leaving the lot, he discovered the waste transfer station was closed, leaving him with a truck full of trash. Furthermore, while preparing for a snow removal job, he realized he had previously sold his heavy-duty extension cord, forcing an unplanned trip to Home Depot to purchase a replacement for $120 to operate his electric snowblower.

Timeline: The Monday Struggle

2:00 PMTruck Freed & Transfer Station Closed

4:30 PMStart Job #1 (200ft Driveway)

7:30 PMThe Hunt for Rock Salt (Sold Out Everywhere)

8:45 PMMission Accomplished: $250 Earned

Battling the Elements: Snow Removal Jobs

Despite the setbacks, the host arrived at a client's home ("Mary") to clear a 200-foot driveway. The job took 2.5 hours of nonstop labor in freezing conditions. Following the physical labor, he drove to nearly a dozen locations searching for rock salt, which was sold out across the city, finally locating the last two bags at a BP gas station to treat the client's driveway properly.

On Tuesday, he honored a commitment made to Mary's neighbors. By this time, the snow had frozen into layers of ice ("like a frozen Oreo sandwich"), rendering the snowblower ineffective. He spent another 2 hours and 20 minutes manually chipping away ice with a shovel to clear the 150-foot stretch, demonstrating the importance of integrity and not leaving a client "hanging" even when the work is grueling.

Business Recovery and The Lesson of Grit

The latter half of the week provided a stark contrast to the early struggles. On Wednesday, the team completed an apartment cleanout in Laurel, Maryland, involving 42 steps, earning 800.OnThursday,asimple30−minutecouchremovaljobnetted800.OnThursday,asimple30−minutecouchremovaljobnetted200. The host uses this comparison to highlight that while some days are "hell," perseverance leads to survival and eventual success. The core message is that entrepreneurship requires grit—the ability to keep going when physically exhausted and when nothing goes according to plan.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean

Shut Up, Bradlee! Isn't That What Got Us Here In The First Place?

Sons of Liberty Radio: The Necessity of Division and Allegations of Government Fraud

Introduction

Host Bradley Dean argues that spiritual and political division is often necessary to uphold truth, citing Biblical figures to counter accusations of arrogance. The episode heavily criticizes US aid to Ukraine, alleging that President Zelenskyy is purchasing American land with laundered tax dollars, and exposes purported massive financial fraud involving Minnesota politicians.

Detailed Summary

The Spiritual Case for Division

The broadcast begins by addressing personal accusations of being "prideful, arrogant, and divisive." Dean refutes this by distinguishing between fleshly pride and spiritual boldness, arguing that true Christian humility often requires confrontation. He cites Jesus (bringing a sword, not peace), Moses confronting Pharaoh, and Elijah challenging Baal's prophets as examples where division was necessary to separate truth from error. The central argument is that it is better to be divided by truth than united in error, and that silence in the face of evil is cowardice.

Allegations of Misused Aid and Land Purchases

A significant portion of the program focuses on the alleged misuse of American taxpayer dollars sent to Ukraine. Dean claims that over 14billionhasbeenreallocatedwithoutproperpermission.TheshowfeaturesareportstatingthataCyprus−basedcompanyownedbyVolodymyrZelenskyy,"DeVegraLtd.,"purchasedthePathfinderRanchesinWyoming.Thispropertyreportedlyspans916,000acres—describedas2014billionhasbeenreallocatedwithoutproperpermission.TheshowfeaturesareportstatingthataCyprus−basedcompanyownedbyVolodymyrZelenskyy,"DeVegraLtd.,"purchasedthePathfinderRanchesinWyoming.Thispropertyreportedlyspans916,000acres—describedas2079.5 million. Dean frames this as evidence that American tax money is being laundered back into US real estate by foreign leaders.

Domestic Provocateurs and Cultural Wars

Dean warns against "paid provocateurs" who claim to be Christians but are allegedly working to incite domestic insurrection between Christians and Muslims. He specifically names Jake Lang and Valentina Gomez as "Zionists" posing as Christians, using vulgarity and fear-mongering to create conflict rather than enforcing constitutional law. Additionally, the show criticizes Turning Point USA (TPUSA) and Donald Trump for associating with figures like Nicki Minaj, whom Dean characterizes as promoting Satanic rituals and demoralizing youth.

Minnesota Corruption and Fraud Claims

The broadcast levels heavy charges against the Minnesota government, specifically targeting Governor Tim Walz, Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, and Rep. Ilhan Omar. Dean alleges that up to 19billionhasbeenstolenthroughfraudinthestate.AspecificclaimismaderegardingabankaccountlinkedtoLt.GovernorFlanaganwitha19billionhasbeenstolenthroughfraudinthestate.AspecificclaimismaderegardingabankaccountlinkedtoLt.GovernorFlanaganwitha38 million balance, allegedly used to pay protesters. Dean argues that the media shifts the narrative from "fraud" to "obstruction" to protect these officials, and he calls out the FBI for protecting Ilhan Omar despite alleged ties to recruiting ISIS fighters from her district.

🏛️ Minnesota Fraud Allegations

Core Accusation: Systematic theft of taxpayer funds reallocated to "paid provocateurs" and personal enrichment.

Estimated Fraud Total: Up to $19 Billion.

Ilhan Omar Bill: Alleged theft of $250 Million.

Lt. Gov. Flanagan Link: Alleged $38 Million account for funding unrest.

The Call for Taxpayer Justice

The episode concludes with a strong call to action for American taxpayers. Dean plays a clip of a citizen simply demanding, "I want my money back," regarding stolen tax dollars. He urges listeners to stop accepting the "left vs. right" political theater and instead focus on the crime of theft committed by representatives. Dean emphasizes that silence is complicity and that the "useful idiots" supporting these systems will eventually be discarded by the very powers they serve.

Key Data

$14 Billion: Amount of US tax dollars allegedly reallocated to Ukraine without proper permission.

$79.5 Million: Listing price of the Pathfinder Ranches in Wyoming allegedly purchased by Zelenskyy's firm.

916,000 Acres: Size of the purchased Wyoming property.

$19 Billion: Total estimated fraud claimed within the state of Minnesota.

$38 Million: Balance in an account allegedly linked to Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan.

Conclusion

Bradley Dean contends that the American political system is riddled with fraud and controlled by a "uni-party" establishment that uses manufactured social division to distract from financial theft. He asserts that the only path forward is for citizens to break their silence, reject political narratives, and demand strict legal and financial accountability from their representatives.

The "Not Real Police" Narrative & The Future of Non-Lethal Tech

Analyzing the dangerous fallout of anti-ICE rhetoric in Minneapolis, officer-involved shootings in Chicago, and the "Glove" technology solution.

Key Analysis: The Minneapolis Crisis

"You cannot say ICE isn't law enforcement without knowing it's gonna trigger people... It's the exact same playbook as 2020."

The "Playbook" Theory: Panelists argue that politicians (specifically Gov. Walz) dehumanize federal agents to incite chaos. This rhetoric has led to:

Attacks on ICE agents (viewed as "Nazis" by rioters).

Creation of "Law Enforcement Free Zones" (barricades).

Local police restricted from assisting federal partners.

Topics:#LawEnforcement #ICE #UseOfForce #PoliceTech #Minneapolis



Introduction

This episode of LEO Round Table explores the dangerous consequences of political rhetoric targeting federal agents in Minneapolis, contrasting current events with the anti-police sentiments of 2020. The panel also analyzes a fatal officer-involved shooting in Chicago involving a vehicle, critiques the criminal charges brought against Jacksonville firefighters for a prank, and advocates for the adoption of new non-lethal "Glove" technology to reduce lethal force incidents.

Detailed Summary

The Destabilization of Law Enforcement in Minneapolis

The panel engaged in a critical discussion regarding the current unrest in Minneapolis, attributing the chaos to political leadership. Dr. Travis Yates argued that politicians, including Governor Tim Walz, are utilizing a "playbook" similar to 2020 by dehumanizing specific groups of law enforcement—in this case, claiming ICE agents are "not real law enforcement." This rhetoric creates a permission structure for violence, leading to incidents where federal agents are attacked, and the public is misled about the nature of federal authority.

The situation on the ground has escalated to dangerous levels. Reports indicate that local police have been held back from assisting federal agents during riots, leaving federal officers to defend themselves against violent crowds at hotels and barricaded intersections. The panel noted that this lack of local support forces federal agencies to rely on their own tactical teams, further alienating the agencies from the community. There is a consensus that this is a manufactured crisis designed to create instability for political gain.

📉 The "Dehumanization Playbook" Analysis

Step 1: RhetoricPoliticians claim agents (ICE/Police) are illegitimate or "not law enforcement."

Step 2: AgitationPublic is emboldened to confront agents, believing they have moral/legal cover.

Step 3: WithdrawalLocal support is pulled back, creating lawless zones and forcing federal escalation.

Operational Analysis: Chicago Shooting and Jacksonville Prank

The hosts reviewed body cam footage from Chicago where an officer was dragged by a stolen vehicle and subsequently shot the driver in the back of the head. The panel unanimously agreed the shooting was justified, noting the rapid evolution of the threat and the officer's immediate fear for his life while being dragged. They emphasized that compliance would have prevented the tragedy entirely.

In a lighter but controversial segment, the group discussed Jacksonville firefighters arrested for a paintball war that resulted in a police cruiser getting hit. The consensus was that while the behavior was immature and unprofessional, elevating it to criminal mischief was an overreaction. The panel suggested internal administrative discipline would have been more appropriate than criminal charges for what amounted to inter-agency horseplay.

The "Glove" Technology and Officer Safety

A significant portion of the discussion focused on a new non-lethal tool from Compliant Technologies: a glove capable of delivering an electrical stimulus. The hosts, having personally tested the device, described it as a "game changer" for policing. Unlike Tasers, which require barb connection and high voltage, the glove uses lower power to achieve immediate compliance through touch.

The panel argued that widespread adoption of this technology could drastically reduce officer-involved shootings. Since approximately 91% of shootings begin with non-compliance, a tool that safely and instantly ends resistance without lethal force protects both officers and suspects. The segment concluded with a strong endorsement for agencies to acquire this equipment to mitigate liability and save lives.

⚡ Tech Spotlight: The Compliance Glove

Core Function: Delivers electrical stimulus via touch (wrist/arm) to induce immediate compliance.

Safety Profile: Uses significantly less power than traditional ECWs (Tasers); no barb projectiles required.

Strategic Impact: Potential to resolve the 91% of use-of-force incidents that stem from non-compliance before they escalate to lethal force.

Key Data

91%: The percentage of officer-involved shootings that begin with non-compliance, which could potentially be mitigated by new non-lethal technology.

10,000 vs. 12: A cited study highlighted a public perception gap where liberal respondents believed 10,000 unarmed Black men were shot by police in a year, whereas the actual number was 12.

$1,700: The approximate value of a pair of the Compliant Technologies gloves.

To-Do / Next Steps

Listeners should visit thewoundedblue.org and look under the events section to participate in the "Glove Challenge" fundraiser.

Participants can make a donation in the name of Dr. Travis Yates or Chip DeBlock to enter for a chance to win a pair of gloves for their agency.

Agencies interested in firearm training seminars at no cost should visit gunlearn.com for hosting opportunities.

Conclusion

The episode underscores a critical disconnect between political narratives and the realities of street policing. While dangerous rhetoric continues to complicate the operating environment for officers in places like Minneapolis, the emergence of technologies like the "Glove" offers a tangible solution to reduce violence and liability, provided leadership is willing to adopt them.
