When General David Petraeus begins his stint as adjunct professor at a New York university later this year the former CIA Director will be paid $150,000 annually – about six times the salary of a first-time teacher without access to state secrets.

In April of this year the City University of New York announced that Petraeus would teach public policy at Macaulay Honors College, located in Manhattan. In a statement released at the time Petraeus said he was excited to lead a seminar “that examines the developments that could position the United States – and our North American partners – to lead the world out of the current global economic slowdown.”    Continue reading “Disgraced general Petraeus to earn $150K teaching at New York public college”

A Russian Proton-M rocket carrying three GLONASS navigation satellites crashed soon after takeoff from Kazakhstan’s Baikonur cosmodrome.

Seventeen seconds after takeoff, the rocket swerved to one side, tried to correct itself, but instead veered in the opposite direction. It then flew horizontally and started to come apart with its engines in full thrust.   Continue reading “Russian Proton-M rocket crashes, erupts in ball of fire”

The death of this nation began a very long time ago. I’ve been tracking it since the1960’s. This year I explored various television series programs, some of them covering ten years of programming.

The results were astounding, not so much in relationship to the past as they were absolutely clear about the total farce of every aspect of American life today.   Continue reading “The Invisible Death”

(Ocala, Florida, July 2, 2013). Florida State’s Attorney Angela Corey has been indicted by a citizens’ grand jury, convening in Ocala, Florida, over the falsification of the arrest warrant and complaint that led to George Zimmerman being charged with the second degree murder of African-American teenager Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida.

The indictment of Corey, which was handed down last week (see www.citizensgrandjury.com), charges Corey with intentionally withholding photographic evidence of the injuries to George Zimmerman’s head in the warrant she allegedly rushed to issue under oath, in an effort to boost her reelection prospects. At the outset of this case, black activists such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, who whipped up wrath against Zimmerman, demanded that he be charged with murder, after local police had thus far declined to arrest him pending investigation.   Continue reading “Zimmerman prosecutor indicted for allegely falsifying arrest warrant and complaint”

It appears as though some Americans may finally be waking up to the grim reality that calling their politicians and signing petitions is simply not enough to stem the tide of evil that has overtaken this once free country. For perhaps the first time since genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) were introduced back in the 1990s, food freedom activists have literally taken to the fields to destroy them, making a bold public statement that We The People have had enough of being forcibly poisoned by these genetic abominations.   Continue reading “Brave food sovereignty heroes destroy 6,000 genetically-modified sugar beets in Oregon”

It’s 4:18 a.m. and the strip mall is deserted. But tucked in back, next to a closed-down video store, an employment agency is already filling up. Rosa Ramirez walks in, as she has done nearly every morning for the past six months. She signs in and sits down in one of the 100 or so blue plastic chairs that fill the office. Over the next three hours, dispatchers will bark out the names of who will work today. Rosa waits, wondering if she will make her rent.   Continue reading “The Expendables: How the Temps Who Power Corporate Giants Are Getting Crushed”

Can police officers trick automobile drivers with bogus traffic stops? Cops in a small Ohio town seem to think so, and now they’re under attack for trying to sweep the city of drugs using a creative little loophole.

The Mayfield Heights, Ohio Police Department is under fire after the city recently decided to establish a “drug checkpoint” on Interstate 271. Randomly stopping cars and combing them for contraband is illegal, though, so law enforcement has been using the next best thing: fake checkpoints.   Continue reading “Ohio police set up fake drug checkpoint to fool motorists”

As part of a deal signed last week in Washington DC between the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry and FEMA, Russian officials will provide “security at mass events” in the United States, a scenario that won’t sit well with Americans wary of foreign assets operating on US soil.

According to a press release by the Ministry of the Russian Federation for Civil Defense and Emergencies, US and Russian officials met on June 25 at the 17th Joint U.S.-Russia Cooperation Committee on Emergency Situations.   Continue reading “Russian Forces to Provide “Security” At US Events”
