Vernon Hershberger’s recent verdict was mostly victorious on the three counts held against him for distributing fresh food to members without licensing. A jury found him guilty on the last count for breaking a holding order which held the maximum punishment. For the last three years, he’s had a threat of 2 years prison and $10,000 in fines looming over until that fateful fifth night of trial.   Continue reading “Vernon Hershberger Sentence and Fines Are Decided”

The Obama Doctrine of preemptive “humanitarian” war is once again moving into high gear, this time in Syria.

Without providing any concrete evidence, U.S. officials have concluded that Syria has used chemical weapons against rebels. Apparently, this is now the standard (or ‘Red Line’) for which the U.S. goes to war.

The U.S. government wouldn’t dare lie to the world about such things again, would they? Well, they got away with it in Iraq, and they destroyed Libya without any valid reason provided.   Continue reading “7 Reasons War with Syria is a Really Bad Idea”

One day in the near future Americans will finally realize that their money is being devalued at a rapid pace. For the time being the price increases are somewhat muted by official announcements of inflation being under control at around 2% and purported economic recovery on the horizon. The Federal Reserve and the US government are doing everything in their power to maintain a perception of stability.   Continue reading “Gold Buying Panic In China: 10,000 People Wait In Line For Their Chance to Own Precious Metals”

Chemical weapons experts voiced skepticism Friday about U.S. claims that the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad had used the nerve agent sarin against rebels on at least four occasions this spring, saying that while the use of such a weapons is always possible, they’ve yet to see the telltale signs of a sarin gas attack, despite months of scrutiny.   Continue reading “Chemical Weapons Experts Doubt US Claims that Syria Used Sarin”

If you think the U.S. government is doing a sub-par job of keeping your food safe, brace yourself. You could soon be eating imported seafood, beef or chicken products that don’t meet even basic U.S. food safety standards. Under two new trade agreements, currently in negotiation, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) could be powerless to shut down imports of unsafe food or food ingredients. And if it tries, multinational corporations will be able to sue the U.S. government for the loss of anticipated future profits.   Continue reading “Secret Trade Agreements Threaten to Undo Our Last Shreds of Food Safety”

I hate to do this but I feel obligated to share, as the story unfolds, my creeping concern that the NSA leaker is not who he purports to be, and that the motivations involved in the story may be more complex than they appear to be. This is in no way to detract from the great courage of Glenn Greenwald in reporting the story, and the gutsiness of the Guardian in showcasing this kind of reporting, which is a service to America that US media is not performing at all. It is just to raise some cautions as the story unfolds, and to raise some questions about how it is unfolding, based on my experience with high-level political messaging.    Continue reading “My creeping concern that the NSA leaker is not who he purports to be…”

Russia is not convinced by the evidence which the US provided alleging that the government of Syria’s President Bashar Assad used chemical weapons against rebel forces.

“The Americans tried to present us with information on the use of chemical weapons by the regime, but frankly we thought that it was not convincing,” said presidential aide Yury Ushakov on Friday.    Continue reading “Moscow unconvinced by US evidence of Syrian chemical weapons use”

The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Thursday that human genes cannot be patented, a decision that is likely to shape the future of medical and biotech research.

Those who challenged the notion that something that occurs naturally in the human body can be “owned” by a company said the decision could open a new era of expanded research and lower costs for genetic testing.   Continue reading “Supreme Court rules human genes may not be patented”

The incident ended in the deaths of two pregnant women and two men last year, after Honduran national police opened fire from a State Department-owned helicopter on a small boat.   Continue reading “State Department stymied probe into shooting of four Hondurans, whistleblower says”

Many of us cannot home school our children because both mother and father have to work two or three jobs just to pay the bills. The cost of living to keep the lights on, food to eat and fuel in our vehicles keeps rising no matter how much we pinch pennies. We have no choice but put our kids in the public school system.

It is common knowledge now that the Public School System has become indoctrination centers. They are trying to ram down our throats a Soviet style collectivist agenda. They are trying to get children to turn in their parents if they talk against the government. They ask how many guns are in our homes. They want to know if their family is bad for the environment because they want to take hot bath.   Continue reading “Are Public School Anti Bullying Policies Part of Slave Training?”
