Before It’s News – by Susan Duclos

Starting with what we know as a fact, which isn’t much with how dishonest TEPCO and Japan have been to date and the amount of lies the have already been caught at and the fact that Japan passed a secrecy law which would imprison anyone from reporting any news they deem “inappropriate,” including ongoing events at the devastated Fukushima nuclear plant.

FACT: Steam is once again rising at the unit #3 reactor, registered on at least three to four days between December 19 and the 27th.   Continue reading “Did They Abandon Fukushima?”

Buck Sexton on What 2014 Holds for the American PeopleGlenn Beck

TheBlaze’s national security editor Buck Sexton opened Monday’s Glenn Beck Program with a simple question: Will 2014 be the year America says enough is enough? As Buck explained, the United States has been teetering on the edge of big government progressivism for quite some time now, and soon the weight of a bloated government and overregulation will prove to be too much for this country to bear. With the midterm elections just around the corner, 2014 provides the opportunity to take a step back and reevaluate the current state of this country. Will Americans finally be ready say enough is enough?   Continue reading “Will 2014 be the year America says enough is enough?”

Still from a video uploaded on YouTube by user@Jacob haughneyRT News

A video made by a man from North Dakota shows him cautiously holding a lighter up against the stream of water coming out of his tap, prompting large flames to rise up into the faucet. North Dakota has been home to a fracking boom over the past few years.

“First time I did it, it was a huge fireball [that] took up the entire sink – so that’s why I’m a little jumpy doing it. I don’t want to blow up the bathroom here,” he laughed during the demonstration. A huge flame shot up as the running water appeared to catch alight.    Continue reading “Fracking hot: N. Dakota man ‘sets tap water on fire’”

Breaking PointThe Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder

In America today, there are close to 50 million people living in poverty and there are more than 100 million people that get money from the federal government every month.  As the middle class disintegrates, poverty is climbing to unprecedented levels.

Even though the stock market has been setting record high after record high, the amount of anger and frustration boiling just under the surface in our nation grows with each passing day.  And now extended unemployment benefits have been cut off for 1.3 million unemployed Americans, and it is being projected that a total of 5 million unemployed Americans will lose their benefits by the end of 2014.   Continue reading “Is America About To Reach A Breaking Point? Anger Grows As Unemployment Benefits Get Cut”

Activist Post – by Digby Jones

In this latest piece of propaganda hogwash from the Department of “Defense” (Offense), Soldiers from the 2nd Cavalry Regiment are teaching Afghan Senior NCOs the skills needed to be an “effective leader” on the battlefield. This of course amounts to nothing more than augmenting their ability to take the lives of other human beings, while cheating their own death as much as possible.   Continue reading ““Building Afghan Leaders” (By Teaching Them To Kill)”

WND – by Garth Kant

WASHINGTON – Nearly three months after an unarmed, young, black single mother with a one-year-old daughter in tow was gunned down in broad daylight by police on a crystal-clear autumn afternoon in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol, a veil of official silence remains over the case.

The Secret Service, the Washington Metro Police and the Capitol Police have withheld virtually all details of the shooting from the family of Miriam Carey, a 34-year-old dental hygienist from Connecticut, and the public. Those details include forensics reports that would show how many times Carey was shot, her cause of death, the position of the body at the time of death, video and photos, multiple eyewitness accounts and an explanation as to why police believed deadly force was necessary to subdue her while she had her infant daughter with her.   Continue reading “Missing! Video of mother killed by police”

NSA Nightstand wardriving deviceEngadget – by JON FINGAS

The NSA may have the ability to intercept data from around the world, but we now know that it has some impressive (and intimidating) equipment for snooping on nearby targets. Security guru Jacob Appelbaum told those at the Chaos Communications Congress this weekend that the NSA’s big box of tools includes Nightstand, a custom device that can compromise WiFi networks for the sake of inserting spy software. The Linux-powered device can exploit Windows systems from up to eight miles away; it’s unlikely that you’ll catch agents wardriving in the parking lot.

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

Following up on the latest stunning revelations released yesterday by German Spiegel which exposed the spy agency’s 50 page catalog of “backdoor penetration techniques“, today during a speech given by Jacob Applebaum (@ioerror) at the 30th Chaos Communication Congress, a new bombshell emerged: specifically the complete and detailed description of how the NSA bugs, remotely, your iPhone. The way the NSA accomplishes this is using software known as Dropout Jeep, which it describes as follows: Continue reading “How The NSA Hacks Your iPhone (Presenting DROPOUT JEEP)”
