UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Anthony PHILLIPS, Defendant-Appellant, 326 F. App'x 400

ORDER Anthony Phillips suggests several unpersuasive reasons why we should vacate his conviction for mail fraud, 18 U.S.C. § 1341, and money laundering, 18 U.S.C. § 1957. He insists, for instance, that district courts lack subject-matter jurisdiction over all crimes not committed on federal property. But district courts in fact have exclusive subject-matter jurisdiction over “all offenses against the laws of the United States.” 18 U.S.C. § 3231; United States v. Turcotte, 405 F.3d 515, 521 (7th Cir.2005).

Phillips also contends that the district court lacked personal jurisdiction over him because he is “a natural man, a Sovereign state born citizen, a private human being.” This argument is frivolous: a district court has personal jurisdiction over any defendant brought before it on a federal indictment charging a violation of federal law. See, e.g., United States v. Marks, 530 F.3d 799, 810 (9th Cir.2008); United States v. Rendon, 354 F.3d 1320, 1326 (11th Cir.2003); see also United States v.

Burke, 425 F.3d 400, 408 (7th Cir.2005) (explaining that defendant’s presence in the territory of the United States supplies personal jurisdiction). His remaining claims are too frivolous to warrant further discussion. AFFIRMED.
