As a preface, let it be known that U.S. wheat farmers are the last group of U.S. conventional grain farmers who have resisted and so far successfully stood up to Monsanto’s criminal planned GMO seed and food dominance of the U.S. and the world, despite continual bombardment by so-called “natural health” writers and web sites and Monsanto’s continual aggressive actions against wheat farmers.   Continue reading “Revealed: Monsanto unapproved GMO wheat was stored in Colorado until 2011”

The Senate immigration reform bill has been presented as an effort to resolve the many complex problems resulting from the Immigration and Reform Act (IRCA) of 1986. Whether the bill passed by the Senate yesterday will succeed remains to be seen, but what is not in doubt is the fact that the border security provisions in the bill, in the words of Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), read “like a Christmas wish list for Halliburton”and other big defense contractors. This is unfortunate, because the U.S.-Mexico border has become a graveyard for a long list of ambitious, technology-heavy – but ultimately ineffective and exceedingly wasteful – programs.   Continue reading “Our Farblondzhet Senators”

The Organic Prepper

If you’re new to preparedness, you may be reading some of the excellent and informative websites out there and feeling quite quite overwhelmed.  While many sites recommend a one year supply of food, manual tools, and a bug out lodge in the forest, it’s vital to realize that is a long-term goal, not a starting point.

A great starting point for someone who is just getting started on a preparedness journey is prepping specifically for a two-week power outage.  If you can comfortably survive for two weeks without electricity, you will be in a far better position than most of the people in North America.   Continue reading “Getting Started: Prepping for a Two Week Power Outage”

MOSCOW, June 29, 2013 (AFP) – Russia on Friday accused Washington of putting it in a “tough spot” by claiming it had failed to disclose revoking the passport of fugitive US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden prior to his arrival in Moscow from Hong Kong.

The diplomatic rhetoric around the explosive case of the 30-year-old former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor escalated when Washington blamed Hong Kong’s government of acting in bad faith by letting Snowden out in the first place.   Continue reading “Russia says US put it in ‘tough spot’ over Snowden”

Each year, 1.5 million heart attacks occur in the United States resulting in over 500,000 deaths. Another common, though usually less fatal, cardiovascular problem is irregular heart beat.

The good news is that nature has a potent herbal solution for each condition which will usually stop them in their tracks in short order.   Continue reading “How to stop heart attacks and irregular heart beats in their tracks”

Monticello, December 26, 1825

Dear Sir,

—I wrote you a letter yesterday, of which you will be free to make what use you please. This will contain matters not intended for the public eye. I see, as you do, and with the deepest affliction, the rapid strides with which the federal branch of our government is advancing towards the usurpation of all the rights reserved to the States, and the consolidation in itself of all powers, foreign and domestic; and that, too, by constructions which, if legitimate, leave no limits to their power.

A report by Jeremy Scahill in The Nation revealed that the largest mercenary army in the world, Blackwater (now called Xe Services) clandestine intelligence services was sold to the multinational Monsanto. Blackwater was renamed in 2009 after becoming famous in the world with numerous reports of abuses in Iraq, including massacres of civilians. It remains the largest private contractor of the U.S. Department of State “security services,” that practices state terrorism by giving the government the opportunity to deny it.   Continue reading “Yes, Monsanto Actually DID Buy the BLACKWATER Mercenary Group!”
