West Virginia Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin declared a state of emergency for five counties Thursday night because of a chemical spill into the Elk River in Charleston, advising residents not to drink, bathe, cook or wash clothes in the water and to only use it for flushing.

The chemical, used in the coal preparation process, leaked from a tank at Freedom Industries and overran a containment area on Thursday. The amount that spilled isn’t immediately known, but a West Virginia American Water has a treatment plant nearby. Freedom Industries did not immediately respond for comment.   Continue reading “W.Va.

Mess with us, we’ll mess with you. That is the message one can derive from JPMorgan’s surprise announcement that it plans to “sell or wind down its business of issuing prepaid cards for corporate payrolls and government tax refunds and benefits.” Which also includes the infamous Electronic Benefits Transfer, or foodstamps, card. According to Reuters, the product, which has been offered with cash and treasury services to companies and governments, “had become a headache of risks in operations and regulations, according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to speak publicly.”   Continue reading “JPMorgan To Exit Foodstamp, Other Prepaid Cards Business”

If you don’t know what it is yet – that means it’s working. The secrecy, that is. But once Pandora’s Box is opened, there’s no putting anything back. It will go down in history as one of the worst, oppressive plagues to saturate the planet.

Like Spider Man trying to stop a train from going over with nothing but his strength and shooting threads; we are going to need all the Web we can get to stop the fast-tracking Trans-Pacific Partnership from running over us. Perhaps more aptly, it is a tangled web we’ll be left trapped in as prey if we do nothing.   Continue reading “No-Brainer Course In Derailing The Trans-Pacific Partnership”

I have a friend that lives in eastern Pennsylvania.  His family once owned a one-hundred and fifty acre farm there.  Over time his dad and other family members grew up, married. and built houses on the land and started their own families.  When his grandparents passed away, most of the remaining farm land was sold off but the family still remained in their houses on the properties they had subdivided.

My friend’s house is on an acre and a half of land, and he also possesses a five acre piece of land where he has a steel building, some woods, and a two and a half acre field he uses for growing his own produce.  When his parents passed away, he bought out his siblings share of the family home as his brother and sister already had homes of their own, he had been caring for his elderly dad for ten years after his mom passed away.    Continue reading “Life in a Police State”

In an end-of-week “information dump” often resorted to by political leaders to publicly release information they would like overlooked, President Obama formally has launched his much-feared expansion of the use of mental health diagnoses to crack down on gun ownership.

The Obama Department of Homeland Security already is on record casting aspersions on the mental ability of returning veterans, third-party candidate supporters and people with pro-life bumper stickers – calling them potential “right-wing extremists.” It was also caught, through the IRS, targeting conservative organizations that might be critical of Obama.   Continue reading “See a Shrink, Lose your Gun”

The Arizona Democrat kept the door open when asked about such a possibility, saying “well, a little later” and “maybe” during an interview on NBC’s “Today” show.   Continue reading “Giffords doesn’t rule out running for office again”

How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don’t think.
– Adolf Hitler

The headline of this post is one that I am not sure how to interpret, but undoubtedly marks something of significance. Personally, there have been many occasions throughout my youth, as well as my adult life, where I had a desire to read Mein Kampf. I was always curious to get into the mind of one of humanity’s greatest sociopaths. To get a glimpse of the thought process of a man capable of such cruelty and evil. To understand the types of words he used and the various psychological tactics he employed to manipulate an economically destitute and politically demoralized German population.   Continue reading “Sales of Hitler’s Mein Kampf are Surging…”

Arianna Huffington is behind an effort to afford the one percenters their own voice on a medium flooded with the dangerous political ideas of commoners.

Huffington, who sold her Huffington Post to media giant America Online (and in the process angered no shortage of starry-eyed leftists), has teamed up with billionaire Nicolas Berggruen to create World Post, a news and comment website.   Continue reading “Arianna Huffington Courts Global Elite in Effort to Undermine Alternative Media”

Oxford, MA. — The students over at Oxford High School in Oxford, MA. are probably not familiar with the Common Core curriculum. I mean, let’s face it, when you were forced into compulsory education did you really care THAT much about the curriculum?

However, when I was speaking with a family friend who is a junior attending the high school, she pointed out something to me that she knew I would find interesting. A class called “Conspiracy Theories”.   Continue reading “REPORT: High School Students Take “Conspiracy Theories” Class”

Agenda 21 emanates from the United Nations. It is the plan for globalist domination of everything. Agenda 21 seeks to eviscerate personal liberties, destroy national sovereignty with unchecked immigration, control all resources (e.g. water and food), destroy the family, take children from their parents, practice crony capitalism, destroy all religion except for the paganism called Gaia, dumb-down education and seek to glorify all perversions known to mankind.

Agenda 21 is the transition piece between the humanity we enjoy today to the malformed transhumanism model which lies on our doorstep in which humans, as we know it, will disappear from the face of the earth. Agenda 21 comes from despots who desperately seek to destroy 95% of humanity at any cost. Agenda 21, and its creators and proponents are your mortal enemy, whether you realize it or not.   Continue reading “Mexican Drug Cartels, LA County Sheriffs and Judges Make a Good Team”

Republicans claim the Justice Department’s investigation of the IRS targeting scandal is “compromised,” after revealing that it’s being led by one of President Obama’s political supporters.

In a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, the lawmakers said they’ve learned trial attorney Barbara Kay Bosserman is leading the probe. They detailed federal campaign finance records showing she’s given more than $6,000 to Obama’s two presidential campaigns — and urged Holder to remove her from the case.    Continue reading “Republicans call for removal of Obama supporter leading IRS targeting probe”
