Oregon’s governor received a last-minute political donation from the president of a company that raked in $1 billion from taxpayer-funded contracts and has nearly $444 million at stake, an investigation has uncovered.

Phil Fogg, CEO and President of Marquis Companies – an Oregon-based provider for assisted living, rehab and Alzheimer’s facilities – donated $5,000 to Kate Brown two days before she was elected governor, Oregon campaign data shows. That was Fogg’s only donation to the 2016 gubernatorial race.   Continue reading “Oregon Governor Took Last-Minute Donation From Contractor With $444 Million At Stake”

The truth is being revealed, as we all prayed that it would.

Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Agent Daniel P. Love has been breaking the law for years. Using and abusing his authority to run his own personal fiefdom. Bullying citizens until they commit suicide. All while believing he was above the law. Or so a report released last month seems to indicate.

Yet, when the information was released, the report redacted his name and the public was left to guess at who it was referring to. There was enough information to conclude that the investigation likely focused on Love, but it was only this week that this was proved to be true.   Continue reading “BLM Agent Daniel P. Love Named in Investigation”

By Taxpayer Association of Oregon,

Among the first bills introduced this year is HJR 1 which raises two different property taxes on your property!

HJR 1 tears down the laws that limit how much you can be taxed on your property. Over 20 years ago voters put in the Oregon constitution two important limits on the government’s ability to tax people’s homes. These sacred measures are Measure 5 (1990) and Measure 50 (1997). Your property taxes are significantly lower today because of Measure 5 and Measure 50.   Continue reading “Oregon Lawmakers’ double property tax!”

Attorneys for murder exoneree Lewis Jim Fogle have filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages from Indiana County, two former prosecutors and seven state police troopers involved with the investigation and trial that wrongfully sent him to prison for 34 years until new DNA testing won his freedom in 2015.

In the 32-page lawsuit, the New York firm of Neufeld Scheck & Brustin contend that mounting pressure over a stalled, nearly five-year investigation into a 1976 rape and murder of an Indiana County girl led the officials to “engage in multiple acts of misconduct to cobble together a case by any means necessary. Jim Fogle was the victim of that malfeasance.”   Continue reading “Jim Fogle, a murder exoneree, files suit against Indiana County, former prosecutors and state police”

Supreme Court Case

This post reveals the ultimate reason why, when Petitioner on September 14, 2015, in the Lufkin action at law demanded the constitutional authority that gives the court the capacity to take jurisdiction and enter judgment against Petitioner’s real property in Tyler County, Texas, the United States attorney went silent on the subject and remained so for the duration of the case (which ended five and half months later), the magistrate gave his adverse recommendation, and the court accepted the recommendation and entered judgment against Petitioner by pretending that Petitioner had never made such demand, thereby concealing by way of deliberate omission from court process the United States attorney’s failure to respond to said demand or prove jurisdiction (despite burden to do so) or oppose Petitioner’s subsequent motion to dismiss.   Continue reading “The “Great Mystery” solved: seminal act of congressional, executive, and judicial fraud and treason”

It would be naive to think that the FDA endeavors to protect the public’s health as its primary focus. Indeed, that would be a conflict of interest, as it serves its master, the pharmaceutical industry. Has the Food and Drug Administration engineered a shortage of intravenous vitamin C as part of an overall attack on natural and non-toxic approaches to healing that compete with prescription drugs? An analysis by Natural Blaze would suggest that the answer is yes.

RICHMOND, Va. (Jan. 30, 2017) – A Virginia bill that would remove sales taxes from some purchases of gold and silver unanimously passed the House last week.

Genetically modified organisms for pest control could end up as contaminants in agricultural products throughout the globe.

“There’s a fly in my soup.” This statement conjures up the image of a dead fly in a bowl of soup rather than a genetically modified insect being served up with organic vegetables. However, this is not a totally unrealistic scenario as experimental releases of genetically modified insects have been approved by US regulators in 2014 very near farming areas. The question is whether fruit and vegetables exported from the USA to Europe and China can be sold under the “organic” label if genetically modified insects have developed on them.   Continue reading “Genetically modified insects could disrupt international food trade”

In an amusing twist on the “fiat vs digital” money debate, a former Federal Reserve employee who tried to fuse the two, was sentenced to 12 months’ probation and fined $5,000 for installing unauthorized software on a Fed server to connect with a bitcoin network, the Office of the Fed’s Inspector General said.

According to the WSJ, Nicholas Berthaume, who worked as a network systems communications analyst at the Fed board in Washington, installed software so he could connect to an online bitcoin network to earn bitcoins, i.e. bitcoin mining, the Fed’s inspector general said. The software was in place from about March 2012 to June 2014, according to a court document. It was not clear how many thousands of a bitcoin he managed to earn this way.    Continue reading “Former Fed Employee Sentenced For Running Bitcoin Mining Software On A Fed Computer”
