In the wake of the publication of the Weekly Standard’s devastating expose of the Southern Poverty Center (King of Fearmongers) it’s worth reminding the public of a salient truth about the SPLC: it belongs on in its own hate group list.
According to its own website, the criterion for adding groups to the list is “their propagation of known falsehoods” about homosexuality. Continue reading “SPLC belongs on its own “hate group” list”
GREENVILLE — A man accused of shooting four people near a Greenville Walmart in June picked out his victims because they were white, according to indictments handed down against him.
Lakim Faust had more than 100 rounds of ammunition when he started shooting at people at a law firm and a shopping center in June, authorities said. Continue reading “Indictment: Greenville shooter picked victims by race”

Computerworld – Some state governments are willing to hire offshore IT service providers to work on healthcare IT projects under controversial contracts that don’t bar use of temporary foreign labor, or workers on H-1B visas.
Two multimillion-dollar government healthcare IT projects, one in Illinois and the other in the District of Columbia, illustrate what’s going on. Continue reading “H-1B workers in line for Obamacare work”
An anti-Christian activist who has such a close relationship with the Pentagon he had a piece of artwork removed from an Air Force base within 56 minutes of calling is now under scrutiny by a team of legal experts.
The non-profit government-accountability group Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act suit in federal court in Washington seeking all records in the Department of Defense regarding conversations with Military Religious Freedom Foundation founder Mikey Weinstein.

America is a captured operation, captured from within. Time is too short to mince words or to fear the ridiculous accusations of “doom porn,” made either by the factually challenged or some paid, professional government trolls (see DHS Insider article by this author, later verified in the media) describing what you are about to read.
The opening words coming from my source inside the intelligence community tell much. “These people [the Obama regime and his handlers] are ‘pissed.’ They did not get what they wanted with Syria because we put them behind schedule by exposing Benghazi. The ‘alternative media’ put them behind, but that doesn’t mean they’ve given up. Far from it. What it means is that they have the same objective, but are switching plans.”Within the last 24 hours, I had two separate conversations with two different sources, each saying nearly the same thing: Expect the unexpected. Wake up. Understand that everything we’re being told is a lie. We are at the epicenter of a ‘perfect storm.’ Continue reading “Two conversations with two insiders: “Expect the unexpected””
Just tell the senate to pass the house version and read it later like they do all the time.

Fort Hood service members who refuse to show identification to law enforcement officers can face action under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, according to a policy issued by the 1st Cavalry Division commander Sept. 5.
Texas state law requires people to identify themselves to police only if they are legally arrested. But the Fort Hood policy requires soldiers to show their ID to law enforcement whenever they are asked to do so by authorities. Continue reading “Fort Hood soldiers can face UCMJ if they won’t show ID to cops”

How can you tell if you’ve found your calling? As a doctor who was called to medicine at a young age but then wound up disillusioned by the system, questioning my calling, I’ve asked myself this question a lot. It’s been a long strange trip- first leaving medicine, then feeling called back, then leaving again only to find my role in healing our broken healthcare system as a writer, speaker, revolutionary, and teacher of physicians. Along the way, I’ve learned a few things about how to know whether you’re on the right track. Continue reading “10 Signs You’ve Found Your Calling”
US officials have accused Iran of recently hacking unclassified Navy computers. If the allegations prove true, the incident would be one of the most serious cyberintrusions of American computer systems by the Islamic Republic.
The officials said hackers working for the Iranian government or a proxy group with approval from Iranian leaders are responsible for penetrating the unclassified Navy computer network. Continue reading “Iran-backed hackers infiltrated Navy computers – US officials”
At least 15 people have reportedly been killed as a second powerful earthquake has struck Balochistan in southwestern Pakistan, the region where another deadly quake claimed over 500 lives earlier this week.
Over 50 people were reportedly injured on Saturday. Continue reading “6.8 tremor hits Pakistan’s Balochistan days after first quake killed hundreds”
Between 2001 and 2006, the United Nations Human Rights Council sanctioned Israel more than any other nation on the planet. According to the Israeli Newspaper Hareetz, Israel has broken more UN resolutions than any other country in history. A shocking statistic considering that the US vetoes most resolutions unfavorable to Israel. In 1975, the UN passed resolution 3379 (by a vote of 72-35 with 32 abstentions) which declared that the entire premise behind the foundation of Israel: Zionism, is actually racism and racial discrimination. Although this resolution was later repealed due to international pressure from the US, it has proven to be factually accurate as Israel has turned into what Nobel Peace Prize winners Jimmy Carter and Bishop Desmond Tutu deem an apartheid state.

When you think of that little dream homestead in the woods, what does it include? Probably a well and septic system, a little stream bubbling nearby, a chicken coop, a sunroom for winter growing, and a cozy fire to curl up next to.
When my daughter and I spent a year living in a cabin in the Northwoods of Canada, our woodstove was our lifeline. It was the only source of heat in a place that reached -42 degrees. It was the only way we could cook when our power went out during snow and ice storms (as it did frequently). It was the cozy center of our home, and we survived for an entire frigid winter for less than$800. After that experience I vowed never to live in a home without a woodstove.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The No. 2 officer at the military command in charge of all U.S. nuclear war-fighting forces has been suspended and is under investigation by the Naval Criminal Investigation Command for issues related to gambling, officials said Saturday.
The highly unusual action against a high-ranking officer at U.S. Strategic Command was made more than three weeks ago but not publicly announced. Continue reading “No. 2 US nuke commander suspended amid probe”

Mom plunged into depression when Dad died. I had tested my wings and left the nest years earlier, and now, for the first time in her life, Mom was alone. I lived nearby andchecked on her often, but it didn’t take a trained eye to see she wasn’t faring well. She shunned friends and neighbors, lost weight because she wasn’t eating properly, and the “toddy” she once enjoyed before bedtime was now poured in mid afternoon. One day I caught her drinking at noon. I couldn’t allow this to continue.
“I can’t eat all that!”We spent the next day together. I woke her at dawn; fixed my breakfast specialty of steak, eggs, and hash browns; and then set the platter before her with a fresh cup of coffee and a small glass of orange juice. Continue reading “Cowgirls Need Love Too”
“We had a problem in this nation because so many people couldn’t afford health insurance. So what’s Obama’s plan? Simply charge those folks money for not having enough money! Brilliant! Oh, but his master strategy doesn’t stop there. It used to be expensive to buy insurance on the individual-market — now it will be TWICE as expensive for men, and only almost twice as expensive for women!
“Do you see how this works? Problem: Insurance is expensive. Solution: Make it more expensive, and then tax people for not buying it.” —Matt Walsh Continue reading “Cruz missiles, train wrecks, and broken promises”

A Missouri man arrested during a scuffle with emergency workers who were attending to his suicidal daughter says he’s still fighting the charges six months later.
Kevin Russell said he and his son were handcuffed to a bench in a Joplin police station as his 16-year-old daughter, Brooke, died March 17 at a nearby hospital. Continue reading “Missouri man arrested after spat with EMT responding to daughter’s suicide, held for more than three hours before he learns girl died”

The Senate Intelligence Committee yesterday held a hearing, ostensibly to investigate various issues raised about the NSA‘s activities. What the hearing primarily achieved instead was to underscore what a farce the notion of Congressional oversight over the NSA is.
In particular, the current chair of the Senate Committee created in the mid-1970s to oversee the intelligence community just so happens to be one of the nation’s most steadfast and blind loyalists of and apologists for the National Security State: Dianne Feinstein. For years she has abused her position to shield and defend the NSA and related agencies rather than provide any meaningful oversight over it, which is a primary reason why it has grown into such an out-of-control and totally unaccountable behemoth.

“Most armed; most free.” So the renowned Italian thinker and strategist Niccolo Machiavelli described the Swiss five centuries ago.
That was a time when the 30 ft pikes and deadly halbards (pole axes) of Switzerland’s fierce mercenary armies were the terror of Europe. The “furia Helvetica” ruled the battlefields until 1515 at Marignano when French guns, firing at point-blank range, tore apart the massed Swiss pike phalanxes.
