This is an article about the intentional construction of false reality.

Not a minor construction—a huge, enduring, institutional, wing-flapping, money-munching, poison-dispensing, Matrix-welding, yet “humanity-saving” invention.

In the wake of CDC whistleblower William Thompson’s confession that he buried a vaccine-autism connection, some people reacted with shock—as if this was the first case of rank fraud that had ever taken place within the hallowed halls of medical research.   Continue reading “Vaccine fraud? What about psychiatric fraud? Staggering.”

More than $725 million was spent by the Army on a high-tech network for tracking supplies and expenses that failed to comply with federal financial reporting rules meant to allow auditors to track spending, according to an inspector general’s report issued Wednesday.

The Global Combat Support System-Army, a logistical support system meant to track supplies, spare parts and other equipment, was launched in 1997. In 2003, the program switched from custom software to a web-based commercial software system.   Continue reading “U.S. Army Can’t Track Spending On $4.3b System To Track Spending, IG Finds”

This is one tree you want to avoid — unless there’s something about the nickname “Little Apple of Death” that appeals to you.

At first glance, the Manchineel tree is quite beautiful, with lush green leaves and fruit that looks like small green apples — but looks can be deceiving.

Native to parts of Florida, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, Central America and Northern South America, this is one of the most poisonous trees in the world. Its milky white sap is a cocktail of powerful skin irritants that ooze out of all the tree’s parts, not just the fruit.   Continue reading “Have you ever seen a poisonous ‘little apple of death’ tree?”

Cops swatted a .40-caliber Glock out of a drunken state narcotics agent’s hand Friday night after he shot two drinking buddies on the Upper West Side, authorities and witnesses said.

Amsterdam Ave. erupted in gunfire and blood-curdling screams just after 9 p.m. when Victor Zambrano Jr., 49, shot a 31-year-old woman in the left foot and the woman’s 42-year-old boyfriend in the right calf during an argument over his weapon, neighbors and police sources said.   Continue reading “Drunken narcotics agent allegedly shoots pals in Upper West Side after tussle over gun”

There has been much talk about how “progressives” do not believe in individual responsibility.  There is the stereotype that liberals attribute volitional powers to firearms, that firearms cause violence.   In anticipation of the veto override  of SB656 in Missouri, Mayor Sly James gave a speech in Kansas City, MO.

The transcript from fox4kc.com shows:

Violence, the mayor says is committed by guns.

It is well known that smoking marijuana leads individuals to experience something called ‘the munchies,’ where users tend to eat a lot more than normal. While you would think that this affect would lead marijuana-smokers to be more obese than non-smokers, there are now multiple studies which suggest that moderate use of marijuana can actually lessen the probability that someone will be obese (though it is possible that thinner individuals simply smoke more often than overweight individuals).   Continue reading “Report: Marijuana Users 3 Times Less Likely to be Obese”

A vaccine for this, a vaccine for that – vaccines all around! If it isn’t a pharmaceutical drug, Western medicine seems to find a vaccine for everything. A possible ‘cure’ for Alzheimer’s disease is being offered in as little as five years if all 14,000,000-plus of the people who currently suffer from the disease (and oh, yes, their family members too) just subject themselves to a vaccine.   Continue reading “Drug Companies Begin Push for Alzheimer’s Vaccine on Millions”

US lawmakers are keen to prevent the fast food giant Burger King from taking advantage of lower tax rates in Canada, arguing that it is unpatriotically moving its operations there after “profiting” from taxpayer-funded benefits in the US.

In August, the Whopper-maker announced its plans to buy Tim Hortons, Inc. – a Canadian coffee and donut chain – and move its operations to take advantage of Canada’s lower tax rates. The additional benefit of the Canadian tax system is that companies do not pay extra taxes on income earned abroad.   Continue reading “US Senators urge ‘unpatriotic’ Burger King to ditch move to Canada”

Bringing Nazi comparisons into discussions is usually reserved for internet arguments, not middle school classrooms. But one US teacher may have missed that lesson when she assigned her sixth graders homework comparing Adolf Hitler and George W. Bush.

The students of McKinley Tech Middle School in Washington, DC were working on a unit about war and peace this week, when, as if proving the Godwin’s law, the unnamed teacher handed out a worksheet that related to two of their readings.   Continue reading “US 6th-graders told to compare ‘power abusers’ Hitler and Bush”

GWER, Iraq (AP) — Misspelled graffiti on walls pockmarked by bullets and torn up propaganda stickers make up the few remaining traces of the Islamic State group in this northern Iraqi ghost town after Kurdish forces finally managed to free it from militant control.

Also missing are as many as 20,000 residents who once lived in the town and are now too scared to return after Kurdish peshmerga forces reclaimed Gwer from militants last month with the help of American airstrikes.   Continue reading “After Iraqi battles, residents choose displacement”

New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez, the co-author of a July Resolution (Senate Resolution 498) that offered full and complete support for Israel’s actions in Gaza, was one of the targets of the protest.

The other was New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, the top recipient of campaign and other contributions from the Zionist lobbying group known as the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Booker also faced protests when he traveled to Oregon last week to speak at a fundraising dinner for Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley, also an unquestioning supporter of Israeli policies.   Continue reading “13 US Activists Arrested for Protesting US Senators’ Unquestioning Support of Israel”

Would you like to know who owns the majority of  ISIS’s weapons? You do. The U.S. taxpayer.

A report is out this morning making the rounds on various news sites from Conflict Armament Research, an organization that tracks small arms and munitions through various conflict zones, which shows a good percentage of arms captured from “ISIS” fighters are actually the property of the U.S. government.   Continue reading “ISIS™ Weapons “Property of the U.S. Government””

LUHANSK, Ukraine (AP) — A convoy of more than 200 white trucks crossed the Russian border to deliver humanitarian aid to a battered Ukrainian city on Saturday, a move made without Kiev’s consent yet met with silence by Ukraine’s top leaders.

“Early in the morning, we entered Ukraine to bring aid to Luhansk,” said Yury Stepanov, a Russian who was overseeing the convoy. “We came in around 215 vehicles,” he added, as workers unloaded boxes into a local warehouse.   Continue reading “Ukraine government repels rebel attack on airport”
