Despite the barrage of catastrophic financial data throughout the Western world, there may be a glimmer of hope coming from the tiny Nordic island of Iceland.

It must not be forgotten that it was Iceland which was one of the first to feel the fallout of the financial crisis of 2007-08. Unlike most of the other nations, however, Iceland showed tremendous backbone and did not allow, for the most part, any of the NWO monetary agencies to intervene in its affairs. So, any Icelandic currency reform considerations must be taken seriously.   Continue reading “Monetary Reform in Iceland: Maybe There is Still Hope?”

The Obama administration issued controversial new rules Wednesday aimed at protecting the nation’s drinking water but decried by congressional critics as a regulatory “power grab.”

The Environmental Protection Agency, in announcing the finalized Clean Water Rule along with the Army Corps of Engineers, said the changes mark a “historic step for the protection of clean water” and would help roughly 117 million Americans who get drinking water from streams not clearly protected before these regulations. The rule would clarify which smaller streams, tributaries and wetlands are covered by anti-pollution and development provisions of the Clean Water Act.   Continue reading “EPA unveils comprehensive water regs, critics decry ‘power grab’”

Supreme Court Case

Relying on the provisions of the Constitution as ultimate proof, the petition presents incontrovertible evidence that no contemporary federal court has jurisdiction anywhere within the exterior limits of any of the 50 freely associated compact states of the Union.

This means that federal law is enforceable only in the District of Columbia and the Territories—and every United States District Judge in every United States District Court throughout the Union is usurping exercise of jurisdiction in extra-constitutional geographic area and culpable for treason to the Constitution:   Continue reading “Landmark Supreme Court Case”

Experts say that a Supreme Court ruling last week has set the stage for Obama’s federal government to start seizing 401K pensions from hardworking Americans.

Noted economist Martin Armstrong has warned that the outcome of the Tibble v. Edison, which found that it is up to employers to protect their workers’ 401(k) plans from mutual funds that don’t perform well, could open the door for the feds to seize private funds and prosecute companies that manage mutual funds performing poorly.   Continue reading “Obama’s Government Preparing To Seize 401K Pensions”

Al Sharpton is demanding nationalized police over the Cleveland incident in which a white police officer was acquitted of killing two black offenders. The Revolutionary Communist Party is out in the streets of Cleveland with other paid protesters in the Marxist-driven and Obama-supported police brutality protests.

In December the DOJ cited Cleveland for excessive force and they have obviously been looking for a case to back them up, otherwise this is just too convenient.   Continue reading “Cleveland Police Are Latest Targets of Marxist-Driven Demands for Nationalized Policing”

A federal appeals court refused Tuesday to lift a temporary hold on President Barack Obama’s executive action that could shield as many as 5 million immigrants illegally living in the U.S. from deportation.

The U.S. Justice Department had asked the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reverse a Texas judge who agreed to temporarily block the president’s plan in February, after 26 states filed a lawsuit alleging Obama’s action was unconstitutional. But two out of three judges on a court panel voted to deny the government’s request.   Continue reading “Court Won’t Lift Hold on Obama Immigration Action”

On May 18, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued an order prohibiting enforcement of provisions of D.C. law that effectively grant to the police chief the discretion to decide who may lawfully exercise the right to bear arms in public for self-defense. This follows on the heels of an earlier ruling in which the District lost the argument that the right to “bear arms” does not apply outside the home, leading to the hasty enactment of an “emergency” may-issue concealed carry licensing scheme. Such a license is the only means by which most people can lawfully carry firearms in D.C. for self-defense.  Monday’s case, Wren v. District of Columbia, made a preliminary ruling that D.C.’s policy of discretionary issuance would likely run afoul of the Second Amendment.    Continue reading “Court Rebukes D.C. for Discretionary Licensing Regime, Orders Issuance of Concealed Carry Licenses to Eligible Applicants”
