First published in 1938 and noted here initially in 2008, The Revolution Was is Garet Garrett‘s masterful deconstruction of the Roosevelt/New Deal myth, arguing that in fact FDR and his minions staged a coup d’etat by permanently eviscerating the limitations on Federal government found in the Constitution.

We commend it again today to all of the good little boys and girls caressing themselves furiously over fantasies of mid-term victories, judicial saviors, state legislative messiahs, miraculous conversions, and the righteousness of non-violent resistance.   Continue reading “The Revolution Was”

The Syria crisis appears to be entering a new phase of deadly maneuvering with fast-paced events between Monday and Tuesday (today).

On Monday, May 27, the European Union lifted an embargo on arming Syrian rebels, allowing member nations to go ahead to provide the arms as they deem fit.   Continue reading “Syria escalation(Israel vs Russia): Russia to send in advanced missiles to deter foreign intervention; Israel threatens to strike shipment”

Chinese hackers have compromised the designs of some of America’s most sensitive and advanced weapons systems—including vital parts of the nation’s missile defenses, fighter aircraft and warships—the Washington Post reported Tuesday.

The Post cited a report prepared for the Pentagon by the Defense Science Board, which groups government officials and private sector experts. The document, “Resilient Military Systems and the Advanced Cyber Threat,” paints a grim picture of cyber-espionage emanating from China only 10 days before President Barack Obama meets in California with Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time.   Continue reading “Chinese hackers breach key US weapons designs”

During much of the United States’ existence, a significant portion of the population lived near the uncivilized frontier. The frontier was a place where the laws of civilization did not reach, where Judeo/Christian morals were not in the ascendancy, a place of danger, where travelers must always be on their guard, where savage tribes held sway, a land often as not immersed in a low level of war, either between the tribes or between a tribe and western civilization, and where a man depended on his wits and weapons, and was not able to depend upon the force of law.   Continue reading “Armed Citizens and the Modern Frontier”

Once upon a time, a system was designed in which “the people” elected delegates to go to Washington DC.  These members of Congress had the specific duty of representing the wishes of their constituencies when laws were being voted upon.

The success of last weekend’s March Against Monsanto should have made it very clear that a great many people wish to see, at the very least, labels on toxic GMO foods. The fact that this success was covered up by the media does NOT mean that the members of Congress were unaware of it – just the opposite. Our success was frightening, and that is why it was covered up.   Continue reading “Monsanto’s Congressional Cartel: List of Senators Who Betrayed Constituents in Favor of Biotech Dollars”

Lately, I have an uncanny knack to predict the future…

It is not anything so extraordinary as clairvoyance or mysticism; no special intelligence or inside knowledge needed. Just plain old comparative reasoning and logic while applying the predictive programming tactics used in every day media and print. Half the time it is just the simple task of removing the word “fiction” from the term science fiction and utilizing current data sets in a predicative way to see present and future innovations.   Continue reading “Redefining Food In 3-D”

Cannabis can have tremendous benefits for sick creatures, but veterinarian Dr. Andrew Springer Browne, who has treated numerous pets that got a hold of their owners’ pot brownies, warns that animals should never ingest THC. Via the The New Inquiry:

Yes, an animal can get high on marijuana, but I would call it a very bad trip rather than being stoned or high.   Continue reading “Can Animals Get High On Marijuana?”

Latinos Shift 'Fast & Furious 6' Into Overdrive at Holiday Box OfficeNow I’m not one to post movie articles on From the Trenches, but this one has MSM sociological propaganda (Obama school tactics) written all over it and if you read the comments in the article, you’ll notice that most people aren’t too happy with it, either. 

They try to claim that the reason why Fast and the Furious has been so successful the past 10 years is because of its diverse cast made up of Mexicans, Hispanics, White, Black and Asians.    Continue reading “Latinos Shift ‘Fast & Furious 6’ Into Overdrive at Holiday Box Office”

The Greeks continue now argue against the decisions of their government.Nieuwblad – by Kristof Simoens [Translated from Dutch]

If it depends on the government in Athens, Greeks who fly their taxes can not pay the jail. And that from an outstanding debt of 5,000 euros. One consolation: they do not have to share with rapists, murderers, drug dealers or the cell.

It goes from bad to worse with Greece.To force people to pay their taxes and make the legendary tax evasion in the country, so rid the government in Athens a bill ready with a serious stick: imprisonment.   Continue reading “Greece threatens labor camp for poor taxpayers”

Imagine if at some point during the 1990s or 1980s the President of the United States had given a speech. And this was his speech:

My fellow Americans, I’ve been regularly shooting missiles into people’s houses in several countries. I’ve wiped out families. I’ve killed thousands of people. Hundreds of them have been little children.   Continue reading “Memorial Day THIS”

Hemp is truly one of nature’s miracle plants. It can be eaten, woven into fiber, and made into paper and even oil. It is hardy and durable, easy to grow, and — believe it or not — it can be made into a variety of construction materials — from pipes to insulation to a concrete substitute called Hemcrete — that rival their industrial counterparts in cost and functionality.     Continue reading “Hemp as a Building Material?

Rep. Adam SchiffEnd the Lie – by Madison Ruppert

According to a report, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is preparing legislation that would end the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) and in doing so would remove much of the authority for the war on terror and all that comes with it.

The AUMF has been used to justify everything from indefinite detention of Americans to assassinations carried out by drones so legislation that would “sunset” the AUMF would bring about many changes.   Continue reading “Rep. Adam Schiff preparing legislation that could end AUMF, remove authority for war on terror”

A concerted effort has been afoot for some time to merge local police with federal authorities to respond to the implementation of citizen spy “snitch” programs. This has been best illustrated by the role of threat fusion centers, which are integrating data from public and private sources alike — even universities.

The FBI has now made public their “Communities Against Terrorism” Suspicious Activity Reporting flyers.   Continue reading “25 Reports That Can Put You on the Terror Watch List”
