COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — In 55 years as a fugitive, Frank Freshwaters got caught twice.

The first time, in 1975, the escaped Ohio inmate’s good behavior helped him avoid a trip back to prison when West Virginia’s governor refused to extradite him, citing Freshwaters’ “flawless 16-year residency,” according to records obtained by The Associated Press.   Continue reading “Twice-caught fugitive’s clean life led to decades of freedom”

The Colorado River is expected to crest two feet lower than previously expected in and around the southeastern Texas city of Wharton, where residents have been asked to evacuate about 300 homes. City spokeswoman Paula Favors said Friday that river level is expected to crest Saturday morning at 43 feet, not the 45 feet predicted Thursday.

She says a 43-foot crest would likely flood several residential streets in low-lying areas of Wharton, a city of roughly 8,500 residents about 60 miles southwest of Houston. Favors says residents have been good about heeding the warnings to head for higher ground.   Continue reading “Latest on Flooding: River’s Threat Reduced for Texas City”

For most consumers of alternative news and media, the lineup of the players constitutes the tyrants and their systemic control, and the enlightened underground, with both sides fighting the great battle of winning the hearts and minds of the rest of the public.

For the alternative news and information community, the possibility of large-scale psychological operations within alternative media itself are generally outside the spectrum of the possible.   Continue reading “Jade Helm: The Psy Op”

And with that the we have gone not only full circle but full retard as well.   Continue reading “The “Revolving Door” Goes Full Retard: SEC Hires Goldmanite Who Previously Worked At The SEC”

A number of stories have recently come to light, showing that McDonalds allegedly has a new policy which is preventing customers from buying food for homeless people. In the UK this month alone there have been two separate incidents to make international headlines, where homeless people were denied service at McDonalds.

The first case involved a 27-year-old landscaper named Daniel Jackson who was almost denied service at a McDonalds on Oxford Road in Manchester because he was wearing dirty clothes and according to the staff he “looked homeless.” Jackson had to explain to the staff that he was actually just coming from a hard day’s work and was not homeless.   Continue reading “McDonald’s “New Policy” Bans Customers From Buying Food For Homeless”

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is committing $110,000 toward the creation of a state-of-the-art center for investigations in the Oakland Police Department, according to a briefing provided by OPD and the FBI at the Oakland City Council’s public safety committee meeting last night.

khalimovThe Daily Sheeple – by Joshua Krause

Colonel Gulmorod Khalimov, the commander of Tajikistan’s special police force, announced on YouTube yesterday that he has now defected to ISIS. He disappeared last month, only to reappear this week in a 10 minute video, where he condemned the United States and Russia, as well as his country’s current regime.

Khalimov was in charge of Tajikistan’s OMON, an elite police force that emerged in several Soviet republics in the 1980’s, and is comparable to America’s SWAT teams or Germany’s GSG-9. They’re responsible for counter-terror operations, crowd control, and VIP protection. He was apparently trained by Russian Spetsnaz and American special forces. In the video he proclaimed “Listen, you American pigs, I’ve been three times to America, and I saw how you train fighters to kill Muslims… God willing, I will come with this weapon to your cities, your homes, and we will kill you.”   Continue reading “US Trained Police Commander Defects to ISIS”
