The Dover Police Department recently posted a video of a cop rocking out to Taylor Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off.”
The PD’s approval numbers went through the roof, and their Facebook likes are still soaring.
“While reviewing dashcam footage, we come across some interesting sights to say the least,” the department spokesperson said. Continue reading “Cop Rocking Out To Taylor Swift Exposed As Publicity Stunt”
They arrest people for feeding homeless people in some cities. And God forbid you are a doctor in Mississippi with an excellent reputation who wants to treat people for free. Can’t have that.
Many of Dr. Landrum’s patients can’t afford to drive to a doctor’s office. So he comes and sees them. I thought that was called a “house call.”
Why do the busybodies have to regulate EVERYTHING? Continue reading “This 88-year-old doctor treats the poor out of his Toyota Camry. Mississippi wants to punish him for it.”
When Barack Obama signed the U.N. Gun Ban Treaty last year, he invited global gun banners to carve up our constitutional freedom.
Now Obama is using the full force of the international community to pressure our U.S. Senators into replacing our Second Amendment rights with U.N.-style gun control. Continue reading “Obama Moves to Advance U.N. Gun Ban Treaty”
RAMALLAH, West Bank — Palestinian protesters heckled and threw eggs at Canadian Foreign Minister John Baird during a visit to the West Bank on Sunday, denouncing Ottawa’s diplomatic support for Israel. Baird was not hit, but one of the eggs smacked onto the roof of his car after a meeting with his Palestinian counterpart at the Foreign Ministry in Ramallah.

Freezing rain turned roadways deadly on Sunday, causing hundreds of accidents and at least two deaths in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut as icy roads forced the closure of several highways and bridges and wreaked havoc on white-knuckled drivers.
In Pennsylvania, at least one person was killed and dozens of others injured in a 50-vehicle pile-up on Interstate 76, according to NBC Philadelphia. The crash occurred around 7 a.m., officials said, and parts of the highway were shut down for more than four hours as emergency crews worked to transport injured motorists to area hospitals.

KONKETIYAWA, Sri Lanka (AP) — Karunawathie isn’t hungry for breakfast. She rarely is these days, but she forces herself to choke down a few bites of rice, dried fish and a simple coconut mix. The doctors say it’s better to have something in her stomach before the four-hour dialysis treatments.
She’s going for her second session of the week, dressed all in pink, right down to her flip-flops. Her fingers and toes are fat with fluid, and her spongy arms feel like soft water balloons. Since she can no longer pass liquids on her own, doctors have told her to drink only 500 milliliters a day — equal to less than a can and a half of soda.

Sometimes the picture says it all.
For Kaleb Whitby, the picture says a little too much.
He’d rather not think about it — the semi-trucks flattening his Chevy Silverado like a panini press.
Amid the tangled steel after the predawn crash near Baker City sat Whitby: intact, trapped and full of questions.
“Thank God that I’m still alive,” Whitby said. “Now I’ve got to go figure out why.” Continue reading “Interstate 84 semi-truck crash: Crushed by 2 big rigs, he walks out with 2 Band-Aids”

The federal government claims it is prosecuting former CIA officer Jeffrey Sterling for leaking information to a journalist about a risky covert operation in which the spy agency funneled flawed nuclear-bomb schematics to Iran. But the opening days of the trial suggest that the government may be using the case more to overcome its reputation for shoddy intelligence work.
In opening statements and testimony on Wednesday, prosecutors seemed more concerned about refuting journalist/author James Risen’s assessment of the CIA’s scheme as botched and dangerous than in connecting Risen to Sterling. Eliciting testimony from a nuclear engineer testifying behind a screen, prosecutors sought to portray the phony-blueprint gambit as meticulous and careful.

Ukrainian troops have launched a massive assault on militia-held areas Sunday morning after an order from Kiev, a presidential aide said. The self-proclaimed Donetsk republic’s leader accused Kiev of trying to restart the war.
The order to launch the offensive was issued early approximately at 6:00 am, according to Yury Biryukov, an aide to President Petro Poroshenko. Continue reading “Donetsk shelled as Kiev ‘orders massive fire’ on militia-held E. Ukraine”
Following five straight days of losses, U.S. stocks made minor gains Friday morning in light of the shock news coming from Switzerland which has market experts scratching their heads, many investors weeping and a lucky few turning a profit. Experts are speculating as to whether the decision to remove the cap on the Swiss Franc hints at an impending stimulus move by the European Central Bank next week or whether it will act as a safeguard to a possible exit from the Euro zone by Greece in 2015. Either way it is terrible news for an already sluggish European economy. Retail broker FXCM Inc. halted trading owing to fears of breaching regulations amid substantial client losses while Alpari UK has filed for insolvency. Meanwhile the media in Hong Kong are reporting that, thanks to its online system, clients of HSBC Holdings were able to buy Swiss Francs below market rates for several hours yielding thousands of dollars in profit. However, it is not just the currency markets that are feeling some serious pain this week. Continue reading “This Week In Energy: Oil Majors Taking Ruthless Measures To Survive”

St. Ann, Missouri – Police in a town just outside of St. Louis recently assaulted and handcuffed the wrong person during a high speed chase. 22-year-old Joseph Swink was driving down the road, minding his own business last week, when his car was hit by a vehicle that was in a high speed chase with police.
Swink’s car was hit by the fleeing suspect, who continued to speed down the road after the collision. Instead of following after the suspect, police stopped the car that had been hit. Then they proceeded to assault and detain Joseph Swink, thinking that he was the man they were after. Continue reading “Police Assault And Handcuff Wrong Man.

The Prepper Journal – by Pat Henry
I was casually strolling around the internet today as most of us do at some point in time, looking for article ideas for the Prepper Journal. I do this whenever I don’t have something pushing into my thoughts as readily as I hope and it happens occasionally when writer’s block hits me. I was lucky enough to stumble on something that many of you, myself included might not have seen yet, but that could be an excellent bug out vehicle option in the right circumstances.

Sir Winston Churchill called General Robert E. Lee, “one of the noblest Americans who ever lived.”
Please let me call to your attention that Monday, January 19, 2015, is the 208th birthday of Robert E. Lee, whose memory is still dear in the hearts of many Southerners. Why is this man so honored in the South and respected in the North? Lee was even respected by the soldiers of Union blue who fought against him during the War Between the States. Continue reading “Remembering Robert E. Lee: American Patriot and Southern Hero”
WASHINGTON (CBS DC) – CBS News has learned from the Secret Service that shots were fired outside Vice President Joe Biden’s home in Delaware Saturday night.
The house was said to be unoccupied at the time and there were no injuries. The shooting occurred shortly before 8:30 “on a public road outside the established security perimeter,” a Secret Service official told CNN. Biden’s home is reportedly “several hundred yards away from the main road where shots were fired” according to the report. Continue reading “Secret Service: Shots Fired Outside Biden’s Home”
“There is a movement to make children into social animals, but not just that. The objective is to make them good social animals, and better than good—the best and most wonderful, special, special, special social animals… and in the process, to cherish them, to profess great love for them—when love is ALREADY a given. When you pile sloppy sentiment on top of what is already naturally there, you’re selling a child a grotesque counterfeit, and he knows it. He either invents his own false sentiments, in order to have a role in the farce, or he rebels at a deep level. Either way, he’s confused. He doesn’t understand these insane overreaching adults.” (The Underground, Jon Rappoport) Continue reading “The surrender to modern education: brainwashing”
Suppose a reporter interviewed players behind the scenes re the question: who really runs the US government? Who really sets national policy?
A legit interview. Actual people. Actual quotes. Not just a circumstantial case.
And suppose these players answered the big questions directly and unmistakably? Continue reading “Media: the most shocking interview that “never happened””
