U.S. surveillance images show China has positioned weaponry on at least one of the artificial islands it is developing in the South China Sea, officials say, apparently confirming suspicions that Beijing has been building up the area for military use.
A U.S. official confirmed to Fox News on Friday that China has put artillery pieces on its man-made islands. Continue reading “US surveillance shows Chinese artillery on artificial islands, officials say”
House Democrat Rep. Carolyn Maloney (N.Y.) has introduced a bill that would require gun owners to carry liability insurance.
The Firearm Risk Protection Act, unveiled Friday, would require gun buyers to have liability insurance coverage before being allowed to purchase a weapon, and would impose a fine of $10,000 if an owner is found not to have it. Service members and law enforcement officers, however, would be exempt from the requirement. Continue reading “House bill would require gun owners to have liability insurance”

Homelessness in the U.S. is continuing to skyrocket, despite what the government would like us to believe.
And if you want to help your fellow Americans who are in need, well…there is a price to be paid.
You see, the government isn’t going to just LET you go out and feed hungry folks. Nope. Like pretty much ANYTHING else in this country, that will require a permit, and permits aren’t cheap. Continue reading “Want to Feed the Homeless? That Will Be $400, Please”

On September 10, 1932 THE PRESIDENT said:
“On the 28th of July last I announced that I had directed the Department of Justice to exhaustively investigate and report in full upon the incidents of the so-called bonus riots of that day in Washington and to present the facts, through sworn witnesses, to the grand jury. I further stated that I should make the Attorney General’s report public when received by me. Continue reading “Herbert Hoover: Statement on the Justice Department Investigation of the Bonus Army.”

Just hours after being force to admit that they were hacked (by Russians apparently), an inspector general’s report shows that The IRS has rather remarkably continued to pay refunds on hundreds of thousands of fraudulent tax returns in recent years, and sent dozens of checks to the same addresses, including in Eastern Europe and elsewhere. While some progress has been made, $2.3 billion of real US taxpayer’s money was wrongfully refunded to fake US taxpayers… but with this new cyber-attack, we suspect that number will soar.

With the issue of immigration still hot on the political landscape following a federal court siding with Texas against Barack Obama’s illegal amnesty, Ann Coulter appeared on Fusion TV to speak with Jorge Ramos in an “honest debate” over immigration. Coulter then claimed that the US has taken in one-fourth of the population of Mexico via illegal and legal immigrants.
Coulter was obviously there to push her new book Adios, America! The Left’s Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole
In doing so, as Coulter always does, she speaks her mind. Continue reading “US Has Taken In ¼ of the Population of Mexico”

The US Department of Defense has granted 307,123 waivers to the Buy American Act since 2007, according to a new report. Instead of investing in home production, it has spent over $176 billion of taxpayers’ money on goods produced by foreign firms.
US Senator Chris Murphy has released his report on the US Department of Defense’s (DoD) overuse in a bid “to sound the alarm over the billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of Buy American waivers used by the federal government.” Continue reading “‘Buy American Act almost meaningless’: Report says foreign firms get billions of taxpayer money”
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.

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”
Just when you thought the US regulators may have finally become less tone deaf to the shame of the revolving door, especially following last year’s latest scandal confirming Goldman runs the New York Fed(and every other central bank), here comes the SEC with an absolute shocker, not only proving once and for all that when it comes to regulatory capture, there is nobody in charge quite like Lloyd Blankfein, but unveiling what may have been the first ever double revolving door in SEC history, after the SEC announced it had hired as its new chief of staff a former Goldman worker who had previously worked at… the SEC. 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”
