The Satanic Temple, a New-York-based religious group, is to build its first chapter house in Detroit, where it will perform services such as marriages, including same-sex, and funerals. It says the sacrificing of people or animals will not take place.

Detroit was picked as a location for the flagship chapter house because of its “underdog” reputation and history of nurturing rebellious underground artistic communities, Satanic Temple founder Doug Mesner, aka “Lucien Greaves,” told the Detroit Metro Times.    Continue reading “Devil in Detroit: Satanic group to build temple in Motor City”

ILOPANGO, El Salvador (AP) — Marvin Gonzalez waves to shopkeepers as he enjoys a morning walk through the sunny, working-class resort of Ilopango. His cellphone rings nonstop with residents seeking his support for anything from dealing with a drunk who won’t pay his bar bill to reporting an attempted rape.

Gonzalez is not a police chief, nor a politician. The 31-year-old plug of a man is the local leader of the Mara Salvatrucha, a gang formed by Central American immigrants in California and now designated by the U.S. as a transnational criminal organization.   Continue reading “Success of Salvador gang truce: Stronger gangs”

DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) — One civilian was killed in shelling in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol and large explosions were heard near the airport in Donetsk early Sunday, raising fears that a cease-fire signed two days ago is on the verge of collapse.

Blasts from the area near the airport were powerful enough to be heard in downtown Donetsk, the main rebel-held city in eastern Ukraine. A spokesman for Ukraine’s national security council, Volodymyr Polyovyi, said at a briefing in Kiev that rebels appeared to have tried to attack the airport, which has been under the control of government troops since May and has come under unremitting attacks from pro-Russia separatist rebels since then.   Continue reading “Civilian killed in Ukraine shelling despite truce”

The dam in western Iraq’s Anbar Province, a major source of water and electrical power, is currently in control of the Iraqis, but there have been attempts by the militants to take over the vital facility.   Continue reading “US military launches airstrikes near Iraq’s Haditha Dam”

In response to President Obama’s announcement that he’ll wait until after the election for executive amnesty, Senate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) ramped up the pressure yet again on Democrats in the U.S. Senate.

Sessions says that Senate Democrats must demand a vote on the House-passed bill that blocks President Obama’s planned executive amnesty, or they are complicit in the wave of illegal immigration and the loss of American jobs Obama’s action would undoubtedly cause. Sessions said:   Continue reading “Jeff Sessions: Senate Dems Willing Accomplices In Obama’s ‘Lawless’ Executive Amnesty”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

Despite arguments to the contrary from the Obama administration, mounting evidence suggests that the U.S. economy is rapidly falling back into negative growth territory. More Americans are out of the workforce than ever before, median household incomes are at levels not seen since 1967, and consumer spending is coming to a veritable standstill. The crisis is apparently so significant that a Federal Reserve governor recently said U.S. policymakers are crafting regulations that will force bank depositors to cover any losses should their financial institutions fail.   Continue reading “Report: It’s YOUR Fault: Fed Says Americans Who “Hoard Money” Are To Blame For Poor Economy”

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) blasted President Obama on Saturday for failing to bomb Stonehenge while in the United Kingdom for the NATO summit.

“This is a time when it’s important to send our enemies the message that the United States is strong,” McCain told Fox News. “I can think of no better way to do that than by blowing Stonehenge off the map.”   Continue reading “McCain Rips Obama’s Failure to Bomb Stonehenge”

Within hours of the ceasefire taking effect in eastern Ukraine, Kiev’s forces were accused of breaching the truce with rocket attacks on civilian areas. The Western-backed Kiev junta, in turn, blamed pro-independence militia of breaking the ceasefire. However, video evidence of explosive damage to homes and vehicles indicated that the Kiev forces had in fact resumed their usual tactics of targeting civilians.

Nevertheless, there is still hope that a cessation of hostilities may yet take hold and allow for political dialogue between Kiev and the self-declared People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk so as to end the nearly five months of conflict in the eastern region of Ukraine.   Continue reading “NATO Sabotage On Order For Ukraine Ceasefire”

In 1974 Richard Nixon struck a deal with Saudi Arabia that might go down as the biggest scam in US history.

In exchange for weapons and protection, the Saudis would sell their oil for US dollars, then reinvest those dollars back in the United States.

This was a matter of life or death for the dollar at the time; Nixon had closed the gold window three years before, and a massive devaluation of the dollar ensued.   Continue reading “The last time this happened, the US went to war to ‘defend’ its interests.”

Mayor de Blasio has sent 1,412 homeless people packing since taking office in January — keeping pace with Mayor Bloomberg’s bum-banishment program despite lambasting his Republican predecessor’s homeless policies.

Liberal advocates for homeless New Yorkers slammed de Blasio for ignoring his own “Tale of Two Cities” campaign rhetoric to “push poor people out of the city.”   Continue reading “De Blasio has sent 1,412 homeless packing”

Washington DC – “We’ve got to stop ISIS…al-Qaida…Syria’s Assad…Hamas…Hezbollah…Taliban …Shebab…the wicked Ruskis in Ukraine..those Yemeni Houthis…Iran… Sudan…Islamists in Libya and Mali… Boko Haram in Nigeria…the Red Chinese in Asia. Oh yes, and defend Latvia and fight the Lord’s Army in Uganda.

That’s the view in Washington where international police fever and growing hysteria over ISIS, the latest Mideast bogeyman, have gripped the nation, as elections near and politicians talk more nonsense than usual.   Continue reading “Just Say No”

Back in February, in a San Jose courtroom, a bombshell was dropped that could have been erased from the public record.

It turns out that Google, which bases its business on collecting and analyzing huge reams of data for advertising purposes, has been scanning users’ emails even before users have a chance to open or read them, including email messages that are deleted without being opened. Google knows what’s in your email before you do.   Continue reading “The information Google doesn’t want you to organize”

It is the greatest murder mystery of all time, a puzzle that has perplexed criminologists for more than a century and spawned books, films and myriad theories ranging from the plausible to the utterly bizarre.

But now, thanks to modern forensic science, The Mail on Sunday can exclusively reveal the true identity of Jack the Ripper, the serial killer responsible for  at least five grisly murders in Whitechapel in East London during the autumn of 1888.   Continue reading “Jack the Ripper unmasked: How amateur sleuth used DNA breakthrough to identify Britain’s most notorious criminal 126 years after string of terrible murders”

Future Structure – by Owen Poindexter

In nearly every home, office and facility in America, one can turn on a light, and it shines with unwavering brilliance at any hour of the day, every day of the year. This modern miracle is made possible by a system of power plants, transformers, and millions of miles of wire, collectively referred to as “the grid.” Nearly every light bulb in the continental U.S. receives power from one of three large grids. This deeply entrenched colossus of American infrastructure has an emerging challenger, one which may take decades before it truly competes with the grid for power distribution, but will almost certainly force a high-level rethinking of the American power system: the microgrid.   Continue reading “How Microgrids Will Change America’s Energy Infrastructure”

Purposed geo-engineering is the cause of climate change. Aluminum in the atmosphere due to constant spraying in the PNW to control the jet stream, cause historical drought and block Pacific storms from making landfall is now acting as a fire accelerant in pristine wilderness areas. There was no NEPA done or an attempt made to inform the public that they will become victims of drought, planned water shortages and constantly dirty air leading to unprecedented respiratory disease.    Continue reading “Response to Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley’s plea for money to stop ‘climate change’”

Fortunately the good citizens of Milwaukee are heeding the advice of their Sheriff and arming up. Sheriff David Clarke has long been a voice of reason within his county, made ever so evident in his public service ad he ran last year:

“I’m Sheriff David Clarke and I want to talk to you about something personal: Your safety. It’s no longer a spectator sport. I need you in the game. But are you ready? With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option. … Consider taking a certified safety course in handling of firearms, so you can defend yourself until we get there. You have a duty to protect yourself and your family. We’re partners now. Can I count on you?”   Continue reading “Man Saves Friends by Fighting Off 5 Attackers With His Firearm”
