KANSAS CITY, Mo. (CN) – Missouri jailers accused a pregnant woman of lying about contractions and forced her to travel three hours in a van while shackled, chained, bleeding and vomiting, she claims in court.
Megon Riedel sued Jackson County and three Doe jailers on Thursday, for cruel and unusual punishment she received as an inmate at Jackson County Detention Center. Continue reading “Shackled, Chained and Bleeding in Labor”
Right Wing News – by William Teach
As usual, leftist gun grabbers are running the rhetorical gamut from pushing “common sense gun control” (heavy restrictions on legal ownership of firearms) to wanting to require anyone who wants to buy a gun to have to suffer being shot themselves (I wonder if this applies to Hillary Clinton’s security detail?) to pushing for the same measures implemented by nations such as Australia and the U.K. Meaning, confiscation of guns, almost no ownership allowed. Reality tends to smack the gun grabbers in the face when citizens are asked certain pointed questions, though Continue reading “Americans Much More Concerned About Gun Control Than Mass Shootings”
MINNEAPOLIS — A new poll asked over 1,000 Americans, in part, “How much trust and confidence do you have in the mass media … when it comes to reporting the news fully, accurately and fairly?” It turns out that less than half of respondents feel they can rely on today’s mainstream news.
Gallup released the results of their latest poll on the trustworthiness of the mainstream media last month, revealing that just four in ten of those surveyed — a random cross-section of adults from all 50 states and the District of Columbia — trust the media. Only 33 percent say they have a “fair amount” of trust in the media, and a mere 7 percent reported having a “great deal” of trust. Continue reading “Poll: 60% Of Americans Don’t Trust The Mainstream Media”
The Daily Sheeple – by Joshua Krause
Earlier this year, Darrel Whitman decided to sound the alarm over the dysfunction he had seen while working for OSHA. He was employed with the Whistleblower Protection Program within OSHA, and investigated claims of illegal activity and safety issues among workers. But after revealing that his department managers closed complaints to alleviate backlogs, altered reports, and failed to protect workers who complained, he was fired. In other words, a worker for a department dedicated to protecting whistleblowers, has been fired for blowing the whistle. Continue reading “Employee for Federal Whistleblower Program Fired for Blowing the Whistle”
A man in Chicago has been charged by police with child endangerment after his 3-year-old son died. The boy was accidentally shot in the head by his 6-year-old brother while playing a game.

Continue reading “Father charged after child, 6, fatally shoots brother, 3, playing ‘cops & robbers’ in Chicago”
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Authorities have charged a man with second-degree murder after he called a Milwaukee television news station and discussed details of a cold case involving a Milwaukee seventh-grade girl whose body was found more than 30 years ago.
Prosecutors say Jose Ferreira is responsible for the death of 13-year-old Carrie Ann Jopek, who went missing in 1982. The case resurfaced last week when WISN 12 News reported that Ferreira called its newsroom and discussed the case. Continue reading “Man charged after calling TV news on girl missing since 1982”
The Peter Schiff Show – by Peter Schiff
My father Irwin A. Schiff was born Feb. 23rd 1928, the 8th child and only son of Jewish immigrants, who had crossed the Atlantic twenty years earlier in search of freedom. As a result of their hope and courage my father was fortunate to have been born into the freest nation in the history of the world. But when he passed away on Oct. 16th, 2015 at the age of 87, a political prisoner of that same nation, legally blind and shackled to a hospital bed in a guarded room in intensive care, the free nation he was born into had itself died years earlier.

An IDF soldier was killed and 11 others were injured when an Arab attacker, armed with a gun and a knife, opened fire at a bus station in the city of Beersheba in the south of the country. An Eritrean man was mistaken for being an assailant and killed by police.
The perpetrator made his way into the station and started shooting and stabbing people inside, in what is one of the most violent attacks since the escalation began, the police said. An Israeli soldier was killed, four police officers were lightly injured and seven civilians received wounds of varying degrees in the attack.

Remember the real reason why Moammar Gadhafi is dead. He dared to propose and started creating an alternative currency to the world reserve U.S. Dollar. The lesson learned in Libya is now ready for teaching in Iran. Forget all the noise about going nuclear, the true message is that the banksters rule and nation states serve their ultimate masters. The hype and disinformation that surrounds the push for war is best understood by examining the viewpoint of Iranian MP Kazem Jalali. The Tehran Times quotes him in saying,
“The European Union must be aware that it can never compel the Islamic Republic to succumb to their will and undermine the Iranian nation’s determination to achieve glory and independence, access modern technologies, and safeguard its rights, through the intensification of the pressure.” Continue reading “Iran, Gold and Oil – The Next Banksters War”
ST. CLOUD, Minn. — A sheriff’s deputy was shot and killed by a man he was monitoring at St. Cloud Hospital early Sunday morning, according to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
The shooting happened on the fifth floor around 5:15 a.m. Sunday when a suspect being treated at the hospital shot and killed the deputy, who was guarding the room at the hospital’s request because of the seriousness of a domestic-related incident involving the suspect. That incident happened earlier in the week outside the St. Cloud area. Continue reading “Deputy shot, killed by suspect at Minn. hospital”
The United States is in decline. While not all major shocks to the system will be devastating, when the right one comes along, the outcome may be dramatic.
Not all explosives are the same. We all know you have to be careful with dynamite. Best to handle it gently and not smoke while you’re around it.
Semtex is different. You can drop it. You can throw it. You can put it in the fire. Nothing will happen. Nothing until you put the right detonator in it, that is. Continue reading “‘America is a bomb waiting to explode’”
Needless to say, what’s happening in Syria is a nightmare for those who have been forced by circumstance to bear witness to the intractable violence. The plight of the hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing the country is unfathomable and the situation facing those who remain is even worse.
For military and political strategists in Washington, Syria’s civil war represents a different kind of nightmare. The Russia-Iran nexus is just about the worst possible outcome for the US, whose status as global hegemon was already fading in the face of an ascendant China.

It’s hard to get much more forceful than this.
Rep. Lee Zeldin issued a statement today blasting an “absolutely disgusting and shameful” Obama administration for not only failing to stand with our ally in Israel, but for actually accusing them of terrorist acts.
Zeldin was responding to comments made by State Department spokesman, John Kirby, who in speaking of acts in which Palestinians had murdered Jews across Israel, provided justification for not denouncing any one side. Continue reading “Zeldin Demands Resignation Of State Department Spokesman For Accusing Israel of Terrorism”

A gun business in Apopka is drawing fire from Muslims.
Spike’s Tactical is marketing an assault rifle it claims was “designed to never be used by Muslim terrorists.” The AR-15 assault rifle is laser-etched on one side with a Knights Templar Long Cross – a symbol of the Christian Crusades to reclaim the Holy Land from Muslims – and Psalm 144:1 on the other side: “Blessed be the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.” Continue reading “Assault rifle with Bible verse to repel Muslim terrorists unveiled in Apopka”

An Indonesian volcano has erupted what appears to be electric-blue lava flows, as photographed by Reuben Wu.
Although surreal, this bright blue coloration is a result of nothing more than a tweak of chemistry.
Volcanoes come in a variety of destructive flavors, both on Earth and on other planetary bodies in our Solar System. Continue reading “A volcano in Indonesia erupts with electric-blue lava”
