Fresh on the heels of American airstrikes in Raqqa, Syria that devastated Syrian infrastructure and killed a number of innocent civilians, the United States has publicly condemned airstrikes by the Syrian military in the same location targeting ISIS militants.

Indeed, on November 26, a new report from the United Nations addressed the issue of civilian deaths at the hand of the American airstrikes, citing 50 dead civilians since the start of the air campaign. The report stated that “The international coalition continued airstrikes against ISIL in Syria on a near-daily basis with reports of some 865 people killed, including 50 civilians, in Aleppo, Deir ez-Zor, Hasakeh, Idlib and Raqqa since strikes began.” Continue reading “Obama to Assad: Stop Bombing ISIS and Let Us Bomb Civilians”

Plan D of Course!

But first, recall that Plan A was to install freezing pipes at the head of the trench leading from Reactor 2 turbine building to create an ice plug so that the extremely contaminated water that had been sitting in the trench since the very beginning of the nuclear accident could be pumped out. TEPCO started the work in April this year.

That failed. The ice plug didn’t quite form.   Continue reading “#Fukushima I NPP: Plan C Also Failed in Plugging Reactor 2 Trench… Now What?”

How can this BUFFOON have any support or ability to run for president again? He’s on probation for a felony, he’s got the mentality of a two year old and he’s destroyed Texas. Have people forgotten about the last presidential election that quickly? I mean come on. Maybe it’s the glasses. He didn’t have glasses the last time he ran. Yea, that must be it. (rolling my eyes) Unbelievable…..

First off, what is a holiday? A holiday is a day of rest. It is a time to observe something special or even spiritual. A time to be with your family and share quality time with those you love and care about. A time to stop and reflect on life and be thankful for what you have and who you can share it with. A time to even celebrate something of historical significance in your country.

So it’s no mistake that the elites want to take all of that away and erase any remnants of it.

What are holidays today? Nothing more than Fascist corporations creating propaganda and ridiculous marketing ploys, while making people work under slave labor conditions, in order to increase their corporate profits. In doing so, they have the customers who are barely able to pay their bills, spend money on things they don’t need and argue and fight with the slave labor workers if they can’t get what they want, instead of with the CEOs who created the situational problem in the first place.   Continue reading “What is a “Holihalfaday”?”

AVIC, China’s top aerospace manufacturer, is finding unexpected but sci-fi inspired ways to push the drone technological envelope. The Holographic Ground Control System (GCS) displays a holographic image of the drone, making it easier for the controller to intitutively understand UAV operations, by fusing together flight parameters, payload monitoring, weapons release and sensor data. The pilot is seated at the cockpit, while other personnel can observe the UAV and its environment on the hologram.   Continue reading “China Shows Off Holographic Ground Control System for Drones”

President Obama’s executive amnesty for an estimated five million illegal aliens is, from the perspective of Republicans, an unconstitutional power grab that threatens the republic. In Obama’s telling, over soft piano music in a campaign-style YouTube video, it “just comes down to people.”

Another version is the one agents of U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE) experience in trying to enforce U.S. immigration laws – specifically a five point checklist they were provided Friday evening and obtained by Breitbart News.   Continue reading “The ICE Guide To Avoiding Deportation In Five Easy Steps”

An explosion on western Mexico’s Volcano of Fire blew out a giant column of ash on Friday that rained down on some towns in two states.

The ash cloud rose five kilometers (three miles) above the volcano in the state of Colima, but it did not pose an immediate threat to the population, the interior ministry said in a statement.

The volcano spewed hot, dry rock and gases two kilometers from the crater.   Continue reading “Mexico’s Volcano of Fire blows huge ash cloud”

The Obama administration is bracing for another surge of illegal immigrants next spring, bringing online a family detention center that will have 2,400 beds.

“We must be prepared for traditional, seasonal increases in illegal migration. The Dilley facility will provide invaluable surge capacity should apprehensions of adults with children once again surge this spring,” said Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Thomas S. Winkowski.   Continue reading “ICE readies 2,400 beds for new spring surge of illegal immigrants through Texas”

When Congress returns from its Thanksgiving recess, the House Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on the “unconstitutionality” of President Obama’s recent executive action on immigration, Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) announced Friday.

“Last night, President Obama went all-in against the Constitution and today he is doubling-down on his lawlessness in Las Vegas of all places,” Goodlatte said. “Unfortunately for the American people, the President has ignored their opinions and forged ahead with his plan, creating a constitutional crisis and an untold number of consequences for the American people and legal immigrants.”   Continue reading “House Judiciary Committee to Hold Hearing On ‘Unconstitutionality’ Of Executive Actions”

President Barack Obama’s unilateral amnesty will quickly add as many foreign workers to the nation’s legal labor force as the total number of new jobs created by his economy since 2009.

The plans, expected to be announced late Nov. 20, will distribute five million work permits to illegal immigrants, and also create a new inflow of foreign college graduates for prestigious salaried jobs, according to press reports.

Obama has already provided or promised almost one million extra work permits to foreigners, while his economy has only added six million jobs since 2009.   Continue reading “Obama’s Amnesty Will Add As Many Foreign Workers As New Jobs Since 2009”

Despite having a complex immigration system in place Mexican authorities refuse to enforce the laws. A recent attempt to enforce those laws in the Mexican State of Baja California was met with a backlash from the business community forcing authorities to stop.

The program was halted earlier this week at the Otay-Mesa border crossing where pedestrians entering Mexico were asked to show a passport and declare how long they planned to stay in the country, according to the U-T San Diego.   Continue reading “Mexico Stops Enforcing Immigration Laws In Northern Border With California”

Hey all,

I was traveling with my family on November 10, 2014 to Hot Springs, Arkansas for a vacation and this is what I noticed traveling on Hwy 30. The first two pics were of an armored vehicle being transported through Texarkana and into Arkansas.

The second one (the blurry one) was another armored vehicle taken on Hwy 30 as well, somewhere between Hope and Prescott, heading North in the same direction as the first one. Not sure where they could be headed. Maybe Little Rock.   Continue reading “Report: Armored Vehicles Spotted Highway 30, Arkansas”

The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder

This is the big problem with fiat currency – eventually the temptation to print more of it when you are in a jam becomes too powerful to resist.  In a surprise move on Friday, the Bank of Japan dramatically increased the size of the quantitative easing program that it has been conducting.  This sent Japanese stocks soaring and the Japanese yen plunging.  The yen had already fallen by about 11 percent against the dollar over the last year before this announcement, and news of the BOJ’s surprise move caused the yen to collapse to a seven year low.  Essentially what the Bank of Japan has done is declare a currency war.  And as you will see below, in every currency war there are winners and there are losers.  Let’s just hope that global financial markets do not get shredded in the crossfire.   Continue reading “It’s Currency War! – And Japan Has Fired The First Shot”
