I am mostly recovered from a nasty virus that I caught from my six month old grandson. At times I was sleeping, or attempting to, 20 hours a day, I could handle necessary chores, but simply trying to avoid coughing enough to breath comfortably, left me weak, and feeling too tired to exert myself. Walking a couple of hundred yards was exhausting. Continue reading “Open Carry While Old, Sick, and Tired”

Last week, we posted Special Operations Imperatives for Preparedness numbers 1-6. Here’s the link to catch up.
7. Anticipate and Control Psychological Effects
Any operation conducted, by any organization within the UW battle space, will have significant psychological impacts. Whether combat operations or civic actions, these can be conducted specifically to produce desired psychological effects, or simply result in the effects. A tactical victory over regime forces may be completely overshadowed by the negative psychological impact of blowing up a school bus of children in the process.

Threats from Pentagon officials doomed a West Virginia bill that would have blocked unconstitutional foreign deployments of the state’s National Guard troops and effectively restored the founders’ framework for a state-federal balance on the Guard.
But while the bill failed to pass, its story reveals the power and potential of this approach. Continue reading “Rattling the Pentagon’s Cage: Defend the Guard Legislation Threatens the Unconstitutional Status Quo”

Yesterday morning, a woman from Orange County, Florida by the name of Deborah Jones called the police after a dispute with her boyfriend. While nothing came of their argument and no one was hurt, it’s disturbing to note that the police did not arrive at her home in a timely manner. Her and the boyfriend eventually left the residence, and let their pit bull stay at home.
But when they returned several hours later, they found the police surrounding their condo. They had apparently forced their way into the home, and killed their dog after he charged toward the officers; Jones arrived on the scene only to find her dog’s body wrapped in a blanket. Jones later told the local media that “They had to shoot my dog for no reason. They kicked my door in. I can’t even lock my door,” and her daughter added “That’s his house. This is his house. He’s got to protect this house.” Continue reading “Cops Arrive Hours Late to 911 Call, Shoot Dog”
Following our exposure of the plunge in Lake Mead water levels post Friday’s earthquake, officials were quick to point out that the drop was “due to erroneous meter readings” – which in itself is odd given we have not seen such an aberration before in the measurements. The data today shows a super surge in the Lake Mead water level – which, even more mysteriously, indicates from pre-earthquake to now, the Lake has risen by the most in a 3-day-period in years (as long as we have found history). How was this level ‘manufactured’ you ask? Simple – discharge flows from the Hoover Dam were curtailed dramatically. We are sure there is a simple explanation for all this… Continue reading “What Exactly Is Going On At Lake Mead?”
SIBLEY, IA (AP) –Iowa farmers who have been dealing with thousands of dead chickens attracting flies for weeks are frustrated with the government’s response to the ongoing bird flu outbreak. The Des Moines Register reports several chicken and turkey farmers expressed their concerns at public meetings in northwest Iowa Saturday.
Merlin DeGroot says he’s waiting for government crews to dispose of his dead chickens, but the agencies involved haven’t coordinated plans well. Continue reading “Some Iowa farmers upset with government’s bird flu response”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is at it again. After speaking in Sacramento, California against SB-277, pummeling the Centers for Disease Control during public testimony in Vermontand appearing on Bill Maher’s HBO show to do the same, he has now broke major news during a recent interview. Speaking with former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura regarding the vaccine industry and big pharma, Kennedy confirmed what many have assumed by stating: Continue reading “Kennedy Drops Bombshell: 70% News Ad Revenue From Pharma”

WACO — Richie was the first to die, then Diesel, then Dog.
Whatever else they were in life, the men with the biker nicknames were Cossacks, loud and proud and riders in a Texas motorcycle gang. And that’s what got them killed, shot to death in a brawl with a rival gang in the parking lot of a Texas “breastaurant” that advertised hot waitresses and cold beer.
“I saw the first three of our guys fall, and we started running,” said their brother-in-arms, another Cossack, who said he was there a week ago when the shooting started at the Twin Peaks restaurant. Continue reading “Waco witness: ‘It was a setup from start to finish’”
(Michael Esch) Recently, Congressman Thomas Massie came to speak at the University of Cincinnati. He was the keynote speaker for the Young American for Liberty’s Ohio State conference. Massie gave an eye opening speech on how the House of Representatives works. One of his most revealing stories centered around his 500-yard run that he frequently makes from his office to the House floor.

Nature has provided thousands of natural medicines and natural antibiotics over millennia. Most people are unaware, but virtually all pharmaceutical medications originally came from the plants of the Earth. After they were proven effective in treating various ailments, the pharmaceutical industry then created synthetic variants which they could patent. In this way, they retained the exclusive rights to earn revenues from their patents over a specific period of time. Continue reading “What Are The Most Effective Natural Antibiotics?”
Between escalating Grexit concerns and Podemos ‘victory’ in Spain, European bond and stock markets shuddered somewhat today. EURUSD continues to close lower – back below 1.1000. All major bourses across Europe are in the red with Greece and Spain worst (ASE -3%) but the most notable shift is a collapse in Poruguese bonds. Illiquidity has always been an issue for PORTUG bonds but today’s near 4 point collapse in 10Y bond prices (and 48bps spike in spreads) is dramatic to say the least. Spain also saw bond risk jump 10bps. Bond yields and spreads are now higher than before Draghi announced Q€ in January and dramatically higher since bond-buying began. If EU leaders proclaim they can see no contagion from Greece, show them these charts. Finally, despite cash markets being closed, US equity futures also suffered (despite an exuberant BTFD rip higher in China overnight).

If you want to work with children in California – it is very likely that soon you will “need your shots” or be guilty of committing a crime. Daycare or childcare workers operating from the state, private/commercial or from the home will be required to get the CDC recommended shots – that’s essentially anyone who works in childcare.
Sen. Tony Mendoza (D-Artesia) introduced SB 792 in late February. If passed, it would make California the first state in history to require compulsory vaccinations for childcare workers. Predictably, it was quietly introduced during the Disneyland measles outbreak that was virtually over with by the time the bill started moving. The outbreak is the foremost reason given for the law.

How best to show respect for the U.S. troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan and for their families on Memorial Day? Simple: Avoid euphemisms like “the fallen” and expose the lies about what a great idea it was to start those wars and then to “surge” tens of thousands of more troops into those fools’ errands.
First, let’s be clear on at least this much: the 4,500 U.S. troops killed in Iraq – so far – and the 2,350 killed in Afghanistan – so far – did not “fall.” They were wasted on no-win battlefields by politicians and generals – cheered on by neocon pundits and mainstream “journalists” – almost none of whom gave a rat’s patootie about the real-life-and-death troops. They were throwaway soldiers. Continue reading “How To Honor Memorial Day”

Washington D.C. – With states all across the country lowering their penalties in marijuana cases, the incoming DEA chief says that the agency will no longer focus on marijuana. Chuck Rosenberg, a former administrator at the FBI, claimed that instead of attacking marijuana users and sellers, that he wants to “improve the DEA’s procedures on classifying, declassifying and reclassifying drugs,” as the new chief of the DEA.
Rosenberg “has proven himself as an exceptional leader, a skilled problem-solver, and a consummate public servant of unshakable integrity,” Att. Gen. Loretta Lynch said in a statement. Continue reading “New DEA Chief Retreats On War Against Weed, Says DEA Will No Longer Focus On Marijuana”
