The Daily Sheeple – by Chris Carrington

Less than two weeks ago, FEMA was seeking contractors who could supply biohazard disposal facilities, tarps and housing units. They have also recently been on the look out for companies who are able to provide food and drinks on a grand scale, presumably to the displaced who are living under the tarps or in the housing units.

Moving on a little, they have now realized they have no way to get all the displaced/forcibly removed people from their homes to the camps housing units, so they are looking for transport companies willing to work on an indefinite time-scale, indefinite quantity basis, to facilitate possible large scale evacuations.   Continue reading “FEMA Soliciting Companies For ‘Motor Coach Evacuation of the General Population’”

The Pentagon plan to deploy two large blimplike aircraft 10,000 feet into the sky about 45 miles northeast of Washington, D.C., has raised new privacy concerns even though the Army says there is nothing to be worried about.

The aircraft was described as aerostats, which means they are lighter than air while being tethered to the ground, The Washington Post reported. These aircraft have been employed in Iraq, Afghanistan and on the Mexican border because they can be equipped with radars and high-altitude surveillance systems that are capable of spotting flying objects up to 340 miles away. These systems are militarily valuable because they are capable of tracking low-flying missiles and movement on the ground.   Continue reading “Is a blimp watching you?
