“If voting made a difference, they wouldn’t let us do it.”

Despite the contentious candidates, insipid scandals, insidious corruption, raucous rallies, deleterious diatribes, and all-around farcical shit storm of a dystopian presidential election cycle — with all its rigged opprobrium — millions of Americans will cast aside logic, pull the wool over their eyes, and angrily take to the polls on Tuesday.

Because illusions about participating in a loosely-defined democratic kleptocracy — hammered into our brains through indoctrination equating voting to patriotic duty — have replaced the higher call to critically consider the magnitude of this mess, people still think voting matters.   Continue reading “17 Reasons Why Your Vote Not Only Doesn’t Count, But is Part of the Problem”

As the pressure to start construction on the Dakota Access Pipeline increases, so does the violence used against peaceful protesters. Many have noticed that the arms against these indigenous people is a little overkill, and even paralleled the armed soldiers with those fighting wars over oil abroad in Iraq and other Middle Eastern nations.

Human rights abuses have increased as well, and one such woman that experienced this is a young woman that was not even protesting when she was pulled over and mistreated by law enforcement. LaDonna Brave Bull Allard, the woman’s mother, told her daughter’s story in an interview with TYT:   Continue reading “Pipeline Police Strip Search Native Girl, Then Leave Her Naked In Jail Overnight”

Smugglers have long made use of the expansive US-Mexico border to avoid American authorities posted along the frontier.

But official border crossings in places like El Paso and San Diego are still focal points for illegal narcotics transiting the border headed to points north.

Traffickers have developed a variety of ways to obscure and conceal their wares, but, according to numerous US investigations and the word of a cartel enforcer operating just across the border from Texas, US agents charged with patrolling the border are frequently abetting the trade they’re meant to stop.   Continue reading “‘The agents are bought’: A cartel enforcer says US border agents are on his payroll”

In no surprise to anyone paying even marginal attention, the FBI’s clearing Hillary Clinton of wrongdoing in its briefly reopened investigation — however, the time the agency took to reach this conclusion is not only bereft of logic and reason, it constitutes the most hubristic of insults to the public’s intelligence.

In just 691,000 seconds from announcement to conclusion, FBI Director James Comey wants you to believe agents thoroughly examined over 650,000 emails newly ‘discovered’ on Anthony Weiner’s computer — including any threads resulting, as well as all attachments — before deciding Clinton innocent of wrongdoing.   Continue reading “Utter Bulls**t: FBI Wants you to Believe It Examined 650,000 Emails in 691,000 Seconds”

Breaking: leaked 2008 memo from attorney Kumiki Gibson to Clinton Foundation chairman Bruce Lindsay. Gibson had been hired to do an independent assessment of the Foundation’s practices.

Below are key quotes from Gibson’s findings. Keep in mind that the Clinton Foundation’s very existence depends on it being legally certified as a non-profit entity, in compliance with laws governing non-profits.

Kansas City, MO — Every year, for the last five years, volunteers with Kookers Kare – a group of barbecue chefs with hearts as big as their stomachs – have worked together to feed thousands of hungry homeless people. However, this year, 3,000 homeless people expecting that food, were denied it, thanks to the cold and callous hand of the state.

Every year, after the annual food festivities have finished, selfless volunteers round up thousands of pounds of leftovers from the massive cookoff and prep them for distribution to the less fortunate. Every year, this has gone off without a hitch — until this year.   Continue reading “3,000 Homeless People Denied Food As City Forces Charity to Bleach the Food and Throw it In Dumpster”
