Future Interview with The American States Assemblies Podcast






Upcoming Interview: Peacekeeping Task Force on

The American States Assemblies Podcast

The Peacekeeping Task Force (PKTF) is set to make its debut appearance on The American States Assemblies Podcast, hosted by Tammy Healy. The Directors of PKTF, along with available Assembly Liaisons, are eager to be interviewed by Tammy and her cohosts, bringing a unique perspective to the podcast.


The American States Assemblies Podcast has been actively engaging with various American State Assemblies, interviewing representatives from across the country to highlight their progress and participation. The podcast's vision includes scheduling follow-up interviews with each State Assembly on the first anniversary of their initial appearance.

Although PKTF has been operational for several years, this will be its first interview on the podcast. While PKTF is enthusiastic about potentially becoming part of the future Land and Soil Jurisdiction to more State Assemblied as a service, it hopes to first meet this interview milestone after at least 25 of the 50 states have been interviewed for the first time. Currently, only one or two more new American State Assemblies need to be interviewed to reach the halfway mark.


All readers are encouraged to consider scheduling an interview if they haven't already, as this initiative aims to foster greater awareness and community engagement among the American State Assemblies.


 

Successful PKTF - Assembly Liaison Interview Process: Insights and Future Developments






Update on PKTF - Assembly Liaison Interviews: A Successful and Engaging Process

As the PKTF - Assembly Liaison training program progresses, we are pleased to report that the interview process for these critical roles has been highly successful and insightful. Here is an overview of how the interviews have gone so far and the valuable feedback we have received.

 

Interview Duration and Structure

Each interview has typically lasted between 25 to 55 minutes, with the first interview generally being the longest. This structured approach has allowed for a comprehensive assessment of the candidate's knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) necessary for the Liaison role.

 

Feedback and Interaction

PKTF administrators have received significant feedback from these interactions, which has been instrumental in refining the onboarding process. The interviews have been designed to evaluate the candidates' experience, skill set, attitude, and goals, ensuring they can effectively facilitate communication and collaboration between different stakeholder groups.

 

Final Interview and Q&A Session

The third and final interview was specifically constructed to allow each Liaison-in-training to bring their questions to the Directors. This interactive session has been crucial in addressing any concerns and providing clarity on the role, leading to a streamlined onboarding process.

 

Upcoming Full Featured Article

A full-featured article on the PKTFnews.org site will soon be published, detailing all aspects of the interview process and the onboarding procedure. This article will provide a comprehensive look at the strategies used, the types of questions asked, and the overall outcomes of the interviews.

 

Gratitude to Participating States

We would like to extend our gratitude to all participating states who have shown forethought and dedication during the 2024 training. Their active participation in the training, insightful contributions within the various platforms linked through PKTF's Linktr.ee, and ongoing discussions with their respective State General Assemblies have been invaluable. These states have not only engaged in back-and-forth email correspondence but have also passionately advocated for the service benefits of PKTF, emphasizing the importance of upholding peaceful interactions with local and state law enforcement and current Municipal state De Facto leadership.

 

Special Thanks to Florida and North Carolina

We want to express a special thank you to Florida and North Carolina for their early participation in the interview process for the December 2024 schedule. Their feedback, engagement, and commentary during the interviews have been a tremendous help to our service analysis, providing critical insights that will enhance the overall effectiveness of the PKTF - Assembly Liaison program.

 

Future Interviews

In addition to the states that have already participated, we also expect to interview other Liaisons-in-training coming from Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Missouri, and perhaps Texas, during the next several weeks. This is a reminder to our readers to expect more updated content on this particular State Assembly development throughout the 1st quarter of 2025. As more information comes in from the Federation of States, as well as from the Liaisons themselves about their own State Assembly Militia and Jural Assembly developments, we will continue to provide detailed updates.

We are confident that the structured and engaging interview process will yield highly qualified and dedicated individuals who will play a vital role in fostering peaceful and collaborative interactions within their respective states. Thank you to all the states for their participation and cooperation, and we look forward to the continued success of this program.

Adding Audio Clips to PKTFnews.org

We have begun integrating more convenient methods of increasing site familiarity by providing additional section content through audio track.


This initiative has been in the development phase soon after the site was launched. Up until now, we struggled to keep up with the subsequent site layout needs and content, along with the time consumption and relative costs associated with site build-out.

Many thanks continue to go out to all supporters of our work through the familiarization phase of The Peacekeeping Task Force, pktfnews and other supporting content sites. Without your support early on, and period rededication to support, we have been able to fulfill our goal of continuous upkeep to the site and the projects found within its pages.

As of this month, readers to both sites can begin listening along to each site section having an audio introduction providing initial Purpose and Intent content for each section.

This idea came about by realizing that any serious website content maintenance team would do well to offer consistent diagnostic attention to the practical use of each section as they are presented throughout the site itself. In this, our team realized now is the time to begin adding an audible edge.


Throughout the remainder of 2024, leading into 2025 until complete, pktfnews it.teams will be continue adding audio emphasis where found needed onto each page, and to each division within each page. This will greatly help to explain the visual content as it has been added, when it was added, and what are the expectations for each content and it's relative purpose for location on the site.



 



Another extremely useful purpose for those feature is to help add supplemental updates to certain sections that have been added to the site during its infancy, but that of which has not yet grown into fruition as has been described during its initial launch.


Our team anticipates a well rounded and enduring approach to each audio clip and track added to each needed site section. In this, readers can expect to find more of these brief information replays with each passing day across both sites currently maintained by The Peacekeeping Task Force. Each audio clip itself is built to remain accurate and relevant for many months once published - throughout the course of the content it is describing within each section.


We hope you find this latest feature not only information, but highly convenient when spending time learning more about what the pktfnews site now, and is becoming that which compliments it's initial creation.


Please feel encouraged to comment or question below.


Thank you, once again to all supporters of our work as we continue building upon our growing list of potential peacekeeping services and ongoing news services and information research findings.

Join the Continental Marshals Service (CMS): Help Shape the Future of State Assembly Vetting


In the ongoing effort to strengthen and legitimize the Federation of States-sponsored State Assemblies, the Continental Marshals Service (CMS) has faced critical challenges: recruiting dedicated individuals to join their vetting service ranks.
For over two years, CMS has been at the forefront of providing a durable, unbiased approach to vetting State Coordinators, a role somewhat akin to what the PKTF - Assembly Liaisons provide within The Peacekeeping Task Force (PKTF).
However, despite the importance of this mission, CMS has struggled to attract the necessary interest and participation to conduct this service on time.



The Current Mission of CMS

CMS is dedicated to ensuring that State Coordinators are thoroughly vetted to maintain the integrity and safety of each State General Assembly. This process is crucial for bridging the gaps between State General Assemblies and the Federation of States, as well as ensuring jurisdictional validity through the assembling process. The CMS vetting process involves a rigorous, albeit highly streamlined, and fair evaluation method to help ensure that only the most suitable candidates are recommended for the role!

The Current Challenge

One of the primary hurdles CMS faces is the significant lag in turnaround time between setting up an account by current and interim State General Assembly Coordinators on their landing site and scheduling an interview for such Coordinators. This catch-22 situation has hindered the efficiency of the vetting process, delaying the critical work of helping to ensure that State Assemblies have the qualified Federation Liaisons they need.

Why Your Help is Needed

At this moment, CMS is not engaged in missions related to international crimes or deployed on-field operations. The primary mission, and one that has been ongoing for over 26 months, is the vetting of State Coordinators. This is where you come in.CMS urgently needs individuals who are willing to participate in conducting interviews to qualify State Coordinators and co-coordinators. If you are passionate about contributing to the integrity and effectiveness of other State Assemblies across our great nation-states, this is an opportunity to make a significant impact.

What You Can Do

  • Conduct Interviews: CMS is seeking volunteer Chiefs to conduct interviews, a process that is both pleasant and rewarding. These interviews are essential for ensuring that State Coordinators meet the high standards required for their roles.
  • Spread the Word: If you feel you are not a suitable fit for this role but know someone within your Assembly who might be, please spread the word. CMS is actively seeking Postal Area Chiefs and Deputy Postal Area Chiefs, as well as potential State Chief Continental Marshals who can facilitate these interviews.
  • Understand the Vetting Process: By participating, you will gain a deep comprehension of what a proper vetting process looks like, valuable knowledge that can benefit your State Assembly in the long run.

The Benefits of Joining CMS

  • Contribute to Assembly Safety and Jurisdictional Validity: By helping to vet State Coordinators, you are directly contributing to the safety and legitimacy of other State General Assembly Liaisons.
  • Gain Valuable Experience: The vetting process is a complex and important task that requires careful evaluation and a fair measure of opinion. Participating in this process will provide you with valuable experience and skills in future roles - even outside of CMS.
  • Be Part of a Critical Mission: Until more State Assemblies are fully Seated and operational, the primary mission of CMS remains the vetting of State Coordinators. Your participation is vital in this endeavor.

How to Get Involved

If you are ready to make a difference and help CMS overcome the current recruitment challenges, here are the steps to take:
  • Contact CMS: Reach out to CMS directly to express your interest in participating in the vetting process. Federation Vetting Form – The Continental Marshals Service
  • Learn More: Examine the vetting process and the role of State Coordinators within the Federation of States-sponsored State Assemblies.
  • Volunteer: Step forward to conduct interviews or spread the word about the opportunities available.

The Continental Marshals Service is at a critical juncture and needs your support to continue its vital work. By joining CMS, you are not only contributing to the integrity of your own State Assembly but also playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of other lawful collective efforts.

Please don't wait – contact CMS today and be part of this very important mission!

Together, we can ensure that our State Assemblies are led by the most qualified and dedicated men and women, securing a brighter future for all American State Nationals and American State Citizens alike.


Thank you for your consideration.

What The Peacekeeping Task Force Does and Does not Currently Offer in Terms of Service

 

The Role of the Peacekeeping Task Force (PKTF) in Supporting Jurisdictional Peacekeepers


The Peacekeeping Task Force (PKTF) plays a pivotal role in supporting peacekeeping efforts within Soil Jurisdiction County Reeves, Land and Sea Jurisdiction Continental Marshals Service, and State Assembly Militia Field Command Leadership. While PKTF is not currently equipped with the suitable manpower or resources to educate peacekeepers across these jurisdictions, its contributions remain invaluable in other significant ways.

 

Ensuring Lawful Purpose and Intent


PKTF aids in assuring that the lawful purpose and intent of peacekeeping efforts are met through peaceful means. This is crucial in facilitating and advocating for the recognition of service between peacekeepers and their De Facto counterparts. By promoting understanding and collaboration, PKTF helps bridge gaps between different service entities, ensuring that their interactions are harmonious and productive.

Providing a Collaborative Meeting Space


One of the key offerings of PKTF is providing a suitable meeting space for both service counterparts. This environment allows them to learn more about each other's provisions and understand how they can function alongside one another without breaching their respective areas of responsibility. This collaborative approach fosters mutual respect and cooperation, which are essential for effective peacekeeping.

 

Evaluating the Service Landscape


PKTF also takes on the critical task of evaluating the service landscape of both jurisdictions. This involves thoroughly identifying clear distinctions between them. One jurisdiction operates with limited authority concerning De Facto governance, while the other holds a superior and concurrent role in its ongoing service operations. In this context, "concurrent" means that this jurisdiction operates simultaneously with ongoing service roles, maintaining its authority while collaborating with other entities.

 

Bridging Communication Gaps


While PKTF does not offer ongoing or qualifying education to either counterpart, it examines each service's materials to gain familiarity and offers a communication bridge across the Isle. This reduces or eliminates confusion by facilitating information sharing between counterparts.

 

Coordination as Part of PKTF's Cyclical Service Model


PKTF's service model revolves around Evaluation, Education, and Coordination. Coordination ensures that each counterpart can effortlessly investigate available service materials, identify contact points, and continue serving their communities without conflict. This model promotes seamless operations and clear communication channels, enhancing overall peacekeeping efficiency.

 

A Vision for Harmonious Peacekeeping


Through its strategic support in maintaining lawful intent, fostering collaboration, clarifying jurisdictional roles, and bridging communication gaps, PKTF enhances the effectiveness and recognition of peacekeeping services across Soil, Land, and Sea Jurisdictions. As these efforts continue to evolve, PKTF envisions a future where peacekeepers operate with clarity and unity, ensuring stability and harmony within their respective communities. By addressing challenges collaboratively, PKTF sets a precedent for effective governance and cooperation in peacekeeping endeavors.
