Amid the devastation of yesterday’s Mariupol artillery strikes which killed or wounded dozens, which was promptly blamed by both sides on the “adversary” – and has been proclaimed by both ‘sides’ (more on that later) as more violent than before the truce – an ‘odd’ clip has emerged that appears to provide all the ‘proof’ a US intelligence officer would need to surmise that US military boots are on the ground in Ukraine. As the following clip shows, a Ukrainian journalist approaches what she thinks is a Ukrainian soldier (since he is wearing a Ukrainian military uniform and is carrying an AK) and asked him as they run through the battlezone, “tell me, what happened here?” His response, which requires no translation, speaks for itself.   Continue reading ““Out Of My Face Please” – Why Are US Soldiers In Mariupol?”

SPERRY, Iowa, Jan. 26 (UPI) — An Iowa business owner said he had a mannequin removed from atop a billboard after police mistook it for a man attempting suicide and “conversed with him.”

Brad Deery, owner of Deery Brothers of Burlington, said the mannequin atop the billboard along U.S. Highway 61 near Sperry was explained by the advertisement’s caption: “I can see Deery Brothers in West Burlington from here.”   Continue reading “Billboard mannequin sparks 911 calls over suicide fears”

Rialto, CA– Rialto, California, has become the poster child for those who believe body cameras will make a difference after a CNN report in 2013 raved about how the department had seen a 60% reduction in use of force instances and an 88% reduction in officer complaints since implementing the devices.

It seems to be impossible to even have a conversation about the police accountability without “Rialto” being mentioned at least once.   Continue reading “Man Honks Horn at Cops Because they’re Blocking a Driveway, So they Brutally Beat Him”

The German government wants to convert part of the A9 Autobahn in Bavaria into a test-field for advanced car technology. The project is key to ensuring the country’s ‘digital sovereignty,’ according to its transport minister.

The track, part of the “Digitales Testfeld Autobahn” project, would be launched this year, Alexander Dobrindt said on Monday in an interview with the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper. The plan involves equipping the road with infrastructure to allow cars to communicate with each other and the road’s own sensors to provide necessary data on traffic.   Continue reading “Germany to test self-driving cars on digitized autobahn, ‘won’t rely on Google’”

What would you do if you were minding your own business in the comfort of your own home and a machete-wielding maniac started kicking in your door?

chemtrailsCollective Evolution – by Arjun Walia

Chemtrails. When you hear the word you might instantly correlate it with ‘conspiracy theory,’ but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Just because a neurosurgeon speaks out about them does not constitute it as truth. We don’t base our evidence of somebody observing  lines in the sky and instantly deeming them as harmful chemicals designed to increase the rate of human ailments as proof. Although there is much merit in observing a phenomenon and listening to your inner voice/intuition to see if something doesn’t seem right, there is also merit when it comes to factual evidence regarding the chemtrail phenomenon and that is why more people within the mainstream world are choosing to speak out. It’s clear that chemtrails are very different from contrails.   Continue reading “Neurosurgeon Voices Health Concerns Over Geoengineering and Chemtrails”

Atlanta, GA — A Georgia lawmaker has proposed a bill, aptly named Baby Bou’s law, that would restrict the issuance of no-knock raids.

The bill’s namesake, Baby Bounekahm “Bou Bou” Phonesavanh, suffered third-degree burns to his chest and face after sheriff’s deputies in Habersham County raided a house in the middle of the night in May of 2014. They were looking for a person who did not live there, over a $50 drug sale, and threw a flashbang grenade into the infant’s crib.   Continue reading “Police Response to Bill Restricting No-Knock Raids: You Can’t Have Both Freedom & Security”

Prevent Disease – by April McCarthy

Learning to stop smoking is not easy. You cough. You fidget. You crave. All you want is a cigarette. Just one. You want to go back to the day that you started this process and live that day over. But these days, your doctor can offer you a lot more help in the form of smoking cessation drugs. Yes, that’s right, they can even double your chance of quitting. There are just a few caveats, but no biggie. Besides increasing your hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts, they’ll also elevate your risk for other psychiatric disorders, not to mention bring down your gastrointestinal, metabolic, nervous, endocrine, immunological, renal, respiratory and cardiovascular systems. But hey, at least you’ll quit smoking right?   Continue reading “Smoking Cessation Drugs Are More Lethal Than Smoking Itself”
