After suffering numerous problems with the latest class of surface warships, the Navy is hoping for a win with the introduction of the largest destroyer in United States history.

On Monday, the Navy launched the new USS Zumwalt into Maine’s Kennebec River for the first time. Originally designed simply for shore bombardment, the ship is now intended to serve multiple purposes, including backing up Marines on clandestine missions.   Continue reading “US Navy gets largest and most expensive destroyer ever”

To inform people is hard slugging. Everything is lined up against the public being informed, or the policymakers for that matter. News is contaminated by its service to special interests and hidden agendas. Many scientists or their employers are dependent on federal money. Even psychologists and anthropologists were roped into the government’s torture and occupation programs. Economists tell lies for corporations and Wall Street. Plant and soil scientists tell lies for agribusiness and Monsanto. Truth tellers are slandered and persecuted. However, persistence can eventually win out. In the long-run, truth sometimes emerges. But not always. And not always in time.   Continue reading “Ignored Reality Is Going To Wipe Out The Human Race”

As campaigns for state supreme court seats become more expensive and more partisan, the fear of being portrayed as “soft on crime” is leading courts to rule more often for prosecutors and against criminal defendants, contends the Center for American Progress study. 

A new report from the Center for American Progress examines the impact on the criminal justice system of the explosion in judicial campaign cash and the growing use of political attack ads in state supreme court elections, which have increased pressure on elected judges to appear “tough on crime.”   Continue reading “New report shows when campaign cash increased, courts ruled in favor of prosecutors & against criminal defendants”

Obama sold smoke and mirrors. He makes used car salesmen look respectable by comparison. His Affordable Care Act (ACA) provides unaffordable coverage.

Millions of households have to pay 40% or more out-of-pocket. It’s for co-pays and deductibles. It’s on top of costly premiums.    Continue reading “Obamacare Sticker Shock”

After ‘The Shit Hits The Fan’ (TSHTF), gangs will be the number one problem in cities of any size. The gangs will take over a city very quickly starting with their own blocks and neighborhoods. Their numbers will grow very rapidly as those desperate for water and food will become their “new recruits” and will join for their own survival.

The gangs will be a formidable force for a number of logical reasons, and will be the downfall of many preppers and others who happen to be in their way…   Continue reading “Gangs Will Rule The Cities”

The extraordinary scene was captured by photography student Casey Gutteridge at the Santago Rare Leopard Project in Hertfordshire. The 19-year-old, from Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, who was photographing the leopard for a course project, was astounded By the mouse’s behaviour.
He said: ‘I have no idea where the mouse came from – he just appeared in the enclosure after the keeper had dropped in the meat for the leopard. He didn’t take any notice of the leopard, just went straight over to the meat and started feeding himself.’   Continue reading “One Hungry Little Mouse!”

 In the early morning hours of October 29, 2013, I was interviewed by Kate Zickel from The Voice of Russia radio show, formerly Radio Moscow. The Russians wanted to know why I believe that the United States was on the verge of martial law and I feel compelled to say that the host seemed extremely uncomfortable with the content of my presentation. I was told we would have 10 minutes for the interview. This story cannot be told in 10 minutes so I prepared attention grabbing bullet points in an attempt to convey why I believe martial law does not lie far off in our future. As a radio guest, I usually adopt a calm demeanor and attempt to present hard data which allows the listeners to make up their mind. I am congenial and polite because I would like to be invited back at a future date. In this instance, I did not have that goal.  Continue reading “What I Told the Voice of Russia Radio Network About Impending US Martial Law”

“The United States is not conducting electronic surveillance targeting the United Nations headquarters in New York,” a senior Obama administration official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Another official told the news agency that the decision was made within the last few weeks after the president’s aides said in briefings that the White House no longer wanted to conduct certain monitoring of UN targets.    Continue reading “NSA ‘no longer spying’ on UN headquarters in New York – report”

WASHINGTON — A major bill to reform the National Security Agency was introduced on Tuesday as the spy service’s director defended its activities before the House Intelligence Committee.

The bipartisan legislation introduced jointly by Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) and Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) is one of the most ambitious efforts to rein in the NSA’s spying powers in the wake of revelations made by former agency contractor Edward Snowden.  Continue reading “NSA Reform Bill Introduced As Agency Remains On The Defensive”

An international volunteer organization urged Canadian authorities to arrest former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney on war crimes charges when he visits the 2013 Toronto Global Forum later this week.

Lawyers Against the War argued in a letter dated Sunday that Toronto Police Chief William Blair and Ontario Attorney General John Gerretsen have a duty to arrest Cheney “as a person suspected on reasonable grounds of authorizing, counseling, aiding, abetting and failing to prevent torture.”   Continue reading “Canadians Seek Dick Cheney’s Arrest For War Crimes During Upcoming Visit”

Washington, DC –-(Ammoland.com)- The Senate Judiciary Committee will soon begin the first step in taking anti-gun judges and “court-packing” them into what is widely regarded as the nation’s second-most-important court — the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.

And, unlike anti-gun judges with no “paper trail,” the nominee, Robert Wilkins, has a particularly virulent anti-gun record.   Continue reading “Senate Committee to Vote on Anti-Gun Judge, Robert Wilkins for Nation’s 2nd-Highest Court”

Over 1,000 people showed up to protest the death of Andy Lopez hours before the funeral for the 13-year-old boy was scheduled to take place. California police fatally shot Lopez last week when they saw him carrying what turned out to be a toy rifle.

The Tuesday rally began at approximately 12pm local time and only seemed to grow as the day went on. Demonstrators planned to march through the small city of Santa Rosa, California, located approximately 50 miles north of San Francisco.   Continue reading “Thousands protest against police ahead of 13-year-old shooting victim’s funeral”

The U.S. military says it has a new benefit for same-sex couples who are in the Armed Services and want to get “married.”

And it’s a taxpayer-funded perk available only to same-sex duos, not heterosexual couples.

It’s government-paid leave to travel to a state that recognizes same-sex “marriage.”   Continue reading “Military gives bonuses only to same-sex couples”
