How the heck do we let Facebook become such a part of our lives? This is not reality; don’t treat it as such. People put all of their personal business on Facebook, then get angry because someone laughs about it, forwards it, or makes fun of them.
Facebook is turning Americans into video twits who feud and kill over gossip and idiocy that needs to stay at home. Continue reading “Woman Stabs Friend To Death Over Facebook”

Although high information Americans are becoming aware of the federal takeover of education through Common Core Standards, there seems to be little recognition yet that Common Core gives schools and third parties unprecedented access to students’ personal information. The federal government is acquiring a massive amount of data that can be sold to the highest bidders. This is an invasion of student and family privacy and a violation of our 4th Amendment rights.

Soldiers have arrived in southern Oregon to help battle lightening-sparked infernos, the nation’s highest priority fires that killed one fireworker and prompted state of emergencies, mandatory evacuations and suffocating smoke, not the type the state’s greenies prefer.
A state of emergency and mandatory evacuations have been declared in southern Oregon where for six days, fires remained at zero containment until yesterday’s cooler and moister conditions. Continue reading “Soldiers Battle S. Oregon 40,000-Acre Inferno”
Wake Up America – by Susan Duclos
With the recent and ongoing revelations of the U.S. government’s Prism and NSA’s XKeyscore programs, spying has become a debate on what is too much, what amount of privacy are we willing to give up in the name of security and the natural progression of that debate leads to how much spying is the government capable of.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press fired editor Drew Johnson after an editorial titled “Take your jobs plan and shove it, Mr. President, (Titled now changed to “President Obama’s policies have harmed Chattanooga enough”) claiming his headline was “inappropriate” and “outside of normal editing procedures.” Continue reading “Editor Fired For Anti-Obama Headline Speaks Out”
Our webhost is having unknown technical difficulties and we are unable to access our Email, thus we are unable to post articles that have been sent to us.
We hope to have the issue resolved shortly.
Please bear with us.
Update: We just talked to BlueHost and they are working the problem which lies in their network, though they say they do not know where the problem came from or how long it will continue. (Maybe they should check with Haifa and Tel Aviv. 🙂 ) Continue reading “Problems with our Email”

A very intriguing article about Project Blue. The history behind this research is even more interesting. Serge Monast and another journalist who were researching and exposing Project Blue Beam, both died of heart attacks, just weeks apart and neither had had a history of heart disease. Monast’s daughter was also abducted by the Canadian government, to dissuade Monast from continuing his research. She was never returned or found. Continue reading “Heart Attack Guns, Abductions, State Sanctioned Assassinations, And Project Blue Beam”
For thousands of years, Egypt has been one of the primary pillars of the Eastern world. When Egypt falls into turmoil, a shockwave is felt by all other nations that heralds great change and perhaps even great catastrophe. The West’s longtime interest in maintaining a solid foothold in Egypt is based on this reality; even in our modern age, when Egypt is in your corner riches can be accumulated, and power can be gathered. Continue reading “Is Egypt On The Verge Of Engineered Civil War?”

Many pesticides have been found to cause grave danger to our bees, and with the recent colony collapses in Oregon, it’s time to take a hard look at what we would be missing without bee pollination.
In just the last ten years, over 40% of the bee colonies in the US have suffered Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). Bees either become so disoriented they can’t find their way back to their hives and die away from home, or fly back poison-drunk and die at the foot of their queen. There are many arguments as to what is causing CCD, but the most logical and likely culprit is the increased usage of pesticides by the likes of Monsanto and others.

In a rebuttal to gainsaying that there is no connection between ObamaCare’s employer mandate and part-time job creation, Duke University researcher Chris Conover has discovered an astounding statistic.
Thus far in 2013, part-time job creation is more than quadrupling full-time job creation (defined by BLS data as 35 or more hours per week, even higher than the 30 hours or more per week that the PPACA stipulates). How extraordinary is that? Continue reading “Unbelievable: 4.3 Part-Time Jobs Created for Every Full-Time Job in 2013!”
State investigators in Florida have rejected a request for an independent investigation of the fatal shooting of a Chechen man while he was being questioned about his ties to one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.
Florida’s department of law enforcement declined the request by the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida to look into the death of Ibragim Todashev. Continue reading “Florida won’t investigate police shooting of Chechen man”

The CIA has been subjecting operatives to monthly polygraph tests in an attempt to suppress details of a US arms smuggling operation in Benghazi that was ongoing when its ambassador was killed by a mob in the city last year, according to reports.
Up to 35 CIA operatives were working in the city during the attack last September on the US consulate that resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, according to CNN. Continue reading “CIA ‘running arms smuggling team in Benghazi when consulate was attacked’”
Lightning pummeled parts of Oregon since Wednesday, igniting dozens of new wildfires as smoke from existing blazes continued to hang in the air.

Debate and positions on controversial military aid shrouded in secrecy, conjuring memories of Iraq War buildup.
After the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence last week passed the Obama administration’s controversial plan to funnel arms to Syrian rebels fighting the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, the vote and debate remain hidden from the public under the label of “classified” information. Continue reading “Classified: Senators Hide Their Votes on Arming Syrian Fighters from Public”

A field investigation by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism in Pakistan’s tribal areas appears to confirm that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) last year briefly revived the controversial tactic of deliberately targeting rescuers at the scene of a previous drone strike. The tactic has previously been labelled a possible war crime by two UN investigators. Continue reading “Bureau Investigation Finds Fresh Evidence of CIA Drone Strikes on Rescuers”
Freedom Outpost – by Tim Brown
I have been writing for Freedom Outpost for nearly a year and then at the former Front Porch Politics for six months before that. There was a commenter who would always come on and say that no one is coming for our guns, and yet, here we are. The evidence abounds that gun confiscation is the goal and is currently taking place. We first saw it in New York under the NY SAFE Act and then in California. Now we’re seeing it in Cook County, Illinois, former home to Barack Obama. This is why American patriots have warned against gun registration, because it inevitably leads to gun confiscation. Continue reading “Illinois’ Cook County Begins Gun Confiscation”
