The Daily Sheeple – by Kimberly Paxton

Just when you thought it couldn’t be tougher to be a single mom, trying to be both mother and father to her children and struggling to make ends meet, along came Obamacare.

One mom decided to vent her frustration by posting a letter to the President on her Facebook page. Yolanda Burroughs-Vestal of Palmer, Texas never expected her rant to go viral, but it has had tens of thousands of views and is still going strong.   Continue reading “Thanks a Lot, Mr. President: Single Mom’s Letter Goes Viral”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

With government intervention now becoming the only viable solution being touted for everything from individual health care and the economy to our personal safety and how we educate our children, it would only make sense that officials in Washington also figure out a way to use their power of confiscation and redistribution to equalize the income playing field.

It’s no secret that 48 million Americans require nutritional assistance just to put food on the table, or that over 100 million of us are living in or at the very edge of poverty, or that nearly one in three of us is currently without any meaningful labor.   Continue reading “Establishment Proposes: “Have the Government Give Every Adult a Basic Income””

BEIRUT (AP) — Twin suicide bombers detonated explosions outside the Iranian Embassy in a mainly Shiite district of the Lebanese capital on Tuesday, killing 23 people, including the Iranian cultural attaché, apparently in retaliation for the Lebanese group Hezbollah’s support of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

The bombings appeared to be another strike in an intensifying proxy battle over Syria’s civil war that is rattling its smaller neighbor Lebanon. An al-Qaida-linked Sunni extremist group claimed responsibility for the attack, saying more would follow unless the Iranian-backed Shiite Hezbollah withdraws fighters that have helped Assad’s military score key victories over Syrian rebels.   Continue reading “Suicide blasts near Iran Embassy in Beirut kill 23”

The deadline for submitting comments on two key rules the FDA has proposed as a part of the Food Safety Modernization Act has been extended to Friday, Nov. 22.

Hailed as the most sweeping overhaul of farm and food policy since the Great Depression, many fear the law will actually make our food supply less safe – not to mention sterile – by regulating small, organic farmers out of business and leaving it in the hands of a few mega farmers and processors.   Continue reading “Food Safety Modernization Act: The End of Fresh, Living Food?”

Bloomberg’s China troubles took another ugly twist over the weekend with the news,first reported by the New York Post, that award-winning journalist Michael Forsythe has been suspended, a week after the New York Times reported that the agency had spiked an investigation he had worked on looking into the financial interests of China’s senior leadership.

According to unnamed Bloomberg employees, that story had been killed over fears that the company, whose news website is already blocked in China, would be expelled entirely. Amazingly, this whole story may have been first broken in a video by Taiwan’s Next Media Animation studio, which in its own inimitable way implied that the whole affair may be tied to soon-to-be-ex-Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s business interests.   Continue reading “Bloomberg Suspends China Reporter Amid Censorship Scandal”

A new investigation has revealed that one of the foremost online resources for health information accepted millions of dollars from the federal government in exchange for its promotion of Obamacare. As reported by The Washington Times, the federal government awarded WebMD a $4.8 million contract for its agreement to post pro-Obamacare propaganda on its website, including the deceptive article “7 Surprising Things About the Affordable Care Act.”

A contract document obtained by The Washington Times reveals that the Obama administration funneled cash lump sums to WebMD each time it posted articles or information endorsing the health care program. WebMD also reportedly accepted funds as part of a federal scheme to indoctrinate physicians about Obamacare, so that they, too, could dispense propaganda about the program to help build support for it.   Continue reading “Exposed: WebMD betrays Americans by pocketing millions to promote Obamacare propaganda”

There is a silent tragedy taking place, mostly in the USA, as countless millions of children of all ages are being erroneously administered doses of amphetamine class drugs multiple times each day. These drugs are otherwise illegal, schedule II, in the same highly addictive group as cocaine, morphine and opium banned in most of the world. Why are innocent children being medically abused in this way?

In any classroom in America today, there is likely to be one, two or three children who do not behave like normal, happy boys and girls, instead walking with a blank zombie-like stare, unwilling to interact meaningfully with friends and others.   Continue reading “Millions of children dumbed down and drugged up on schedule II amphetamines”

In the home stretch of the 2012 presidential campaign, from August to September, the unemployment rate fell sharply — raising eyebrows from Wall Street to Washington.

The decline — from 8.1 percent in August to 7.8 percent in September — might not have been all it seemed. The numbers, according to a reliable source, were manipulated.   Continue reading “Census ‘faked’ 2012 election jobs report”

New York –-(Ammoland.com)- It’s named the International Small Arms Control Standard (ISACS) and it has been kept secret for years.

It’s a child of failure, the failure of decades of attempts to disarm all civilians. Voluntary disarmament didn’t work. Forced civilian disarmament didn’t work. And black markets burgeoned.   Continue reading “The International Small Arms Control Standard:The Next Step of the UN Gun Ban”

The Truth Wins – by Michael Snyder

How many lies can one president tell and still retain any credibility?  What you are about to see is absolutely astounding.  It is a long list of important promises that Barack Obama has broken since he has been president.  If he had only told a few lies, perhaps the American people would be willing to overlook that.  After all, pretty much all of our politicians our liars.  Unfortunately, many of the lies that Obama has told appear to have been quite cold-hearted in nature.  For example, Barack Obama repeatedly made the promise that “you will be able to keep your health care plan” under Obamacare.  But now we are learning that he knew that this was a lie all along.    Continue reading “A List Of 23 Famous Obama Quotes That Turned Out To Be Broken Promises Or Cold-Hearted Lies”

It is not allowed to happen in Russia, or in Kazakhstan—but in the United States, children as young as 12 are allowed to toil on tobacco farms, whether it’s driving Dad’s tractor or picking leaves for R.J. Reynolds. Tobacco farming poses threats to their health thanks to heavy pesticide use and the possibility of acute nicotine poisoning, as Gabriel Thompson vividly describes in his special investigative report in this issue.   Continue reading “Child Labor in the USA”

The Hagmann & Hagmann Report – by Douglas J. Hagmann

A listener to The Hagmann & Hagmann Report observed an interesting, if not disconcerting event in a small town that borders the Smoky Mountains. A German soldier transport truck, complete with the Balkenkreuz der Deutschen Streitkräfte emblem (a World War II insignia of the German armed forces) on the driver’s door, being driven into the Smoky Mountains. According to this listener, the driver appeared of Russian origin and seemed extremely nervous at the gaze of this listener.  Thinking quickly, the listener snapped several pictures, some of which are presented here.    Continue reading “German transport trucks & Russian soldiers – what’s going on in the Smoky Mountains?”
