Diplomatic cables from the WikiLeaks archive and a mainstream media investigation suggest that Trump’s current campaign advisor, Paul Manafort, had previously collaborated with U.S. intelligence agencies and served as a key advisor to the Ukrainian government, including its president, Viktor F. Yanukovych, who fled the country after a right-wing coup in 2014. Continue reading “WikiLeaks: Trump Advisor Paul Manafort Tied To Ukrainian Government, US Intelligence”

In his On The Duty of Civil Disobedience (1849), Henry David Thoreau asked:
How does it become a man to behave toward this American government to-day? I answer that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it. … What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn. Continue reading “Non-Voting”

In what can only be described as a cluster f*ck, this campaign cycle has proven that honesty, transparency, and democracy are nothing more than hollow words used by sociopaths who want to control you.

Amplifying the growing crackdown on dissent and specifically the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement for Palestinian rights, the Israeli government this weekend unveiled a new initiative to track and deport activists suspected of supporting the campaign.
Strategic Affairs Minister Gilad Erdan and Interior Minister Arye Dery on Sunday announced the creation of a new government task force charged with gathering intelligence on pro-Palestininian activists and organizations with the intent, as Haaretz put it, of collecting enough evidence to legally deport them from Israel or the occupied West Bank.

Two Kaufman County police departments have joined other Texas police departments in proudly flaunting religion by adding the motto “In God We Trust” to their police vehicles.
The Terrell Police Department and Crandall Police Department have chosen to thumb their collective noses at the First Amendment by showing that they are partial to those who share their religious beliefs. This is another perfect example of blindness in law enforcement by showing they are more interested in appearance than they are on doing the right thing. The “people” are secondary.
