Washington’s Blog – by David Swanson

Before people had an easy way to see video footage of police murders, headlines crediting the police with just and noble actions couldn’t be effectively questioned.

We’re still back there in the dark ages when it comes to war murders, but we can overcome the lack of quickly shared videos if we choose to. When the headlines celebrate some sort of “victory” in Mosul or anywhere else, we can point out that the videos of people being blown up in their houses would be truly horrific if we had them. This is not, after all, a point on which there can actually be any question.   Continue reading “What Police Videos Teach Us About Wars”

WASHINGTON — President Obama has expanded his use of executive power beyond bounds of earth, signing an executive order Thursday to prepare the federal government to deal with the effects of space weather events.

That space weather — which includes phenomena like solar flares, geomagnetic disturbances — can have big effects on everyday technologies like global positioning systems, satellite communication and aviation.   Continue reading “Obama expands his executive power beyond Earth”

Federal health officials are warning anyone who had open heart surgery since 2011 to be on the alert for possible infection from a contaminated surgical device in wide use.

In an alert issued Thursday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said a device that heats and cools blood during surgery is suspected of causing dangerous infections months or even years after surgery.   Continue reading “CDC warns heart patients of surgery risk from ‘disastrous’ bacteria”

The decision to let Hillary Clinton off the hook for mishandling classified information has roiled the FBI and Department of Justice, with one person closely involved in the year-long probe telling FoxNews.com that career agents and attorneys on the case unanimously believed the Democratic presidential nominee should have been charged.

The source, who spoke to FoxNews.com on the condition of anonymity, said FBI Director James Comey’s dramatic July 5 announcement that he would not recommend to the Attorney General’s office that the former secretary of state be charged left members of the investigative team dismayed and disgusted. More than 100 FBI agents and analysts worked around the clock with six attorneys from the DOJ’s National Security Division, Counter Espionage Section, to investigate the case.   Continue reading “FBI, DOJ roiled by Comey, Lynch decision to let Clinton slide by on emails, says insider”

Once was a shock. Twice was an outrage. Thrice is a nightmare that won’t end.

Over the past three years, my family’s private, individual health insurance plan — a high-deductible Preferred Provider Organization — has been canceled three times. Our first death notice, from Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, arrived in the fall of 2013. Our second, from Rocky Mountain Health Plans, came last August. Three weeks ago, we received another ominous “notice of plan discontinuation” from Anthem informing us that the insurer “will no longer offer your current health plan in the State of Colorado.”   Continue reading “Obama Lied. My Third Health Plan Just Died.”

If you’re not following the flurry of email dumps now being released every 24 hours by Wikileaks, you’re missing out on the most damning revelations of systemic government corruption in the history of this nation.

The emails reveal unprecedented criminal collusion between the State Dept., the Clinton Foundation, the Obama White House, the FBI, the DNC, the leftist media and the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign.   Continue reading “You’ve already lost America… this election is about taking it back in the last non-violent way possible: At the voting booth”

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

Two weeks ago when the US broke off bilateral relations with Russia over the ongoing Syrian proxy war, we reported that as part of America’s “next steps” would be a discussion on military options. As Reuters reported then, the “discussions were being held at “staff level,” and have yet to produce any recommendations to President Barack Obama, who has resisted ordering military action against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the country’s multi-sided civil war. “The president has asked all of the agencies to put forward options, some familiar, some new, that we are very actively reviewing,” Blinken said. “When we are able to work through these in the days ahead we’ll have an opportunity to come back and talk about them in detail.”   Continue reading “Obama To Decide Friday On Military Action In Syria”

The Daily Sheeple

A new theory is circling social media that the Clinton camp had advance knowledge that Justice Antonin Scalia would be murdered based on another Podesta email buried in the thousands released by Wikileaks in recent days.

The email exchange is between Hillary’s campaign chairman and DC lobbyist Steve Elmendorf, whose clients range from Facebook to Goldman Sachs and who is a former chief of staff and senior advisor to Democratic leader Dick Gephardt for over a decade.   Continue reading “New Conspiracy Theory: Does This Email Prove The Clinton Camp Knew Justice Scalia Would Be Murdered?”

Off the Grid News – by Daniel Jennings

A SWAT team with 32 officers, an armored vehicle and a sniper raided a man’s home because he had a license to carry a gun and a registered weapon — and because a former roommate had a little bit of marijuana.

During the search – which was criticized by a judge this month — deputies smashed Michael Delgado’s door and windows, and tossed flash-bang grenades into his house.   Continue reading “32-Member SWAT Team Raids Home Because Man Had Registered Gun”

American arms dealer Marc Turi, in his first television interview since criminal charges against him were dropped, told Fox News that the Obama administration — with the cooperation of Hillary Clinton’s State Department — tried and failed to make him the scapegoat for a 2011 covert weapons program to arm Libyan rebels that spun out of control.

“I would say, 100 percent, I was victimized…to somehow discredit me, to throw me under the bus, to do whatever it took to protect their next presidential candidate,” he told Fox News chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge.   Continue reading “Arms dealer says administration made him scapegoat on Libya operation to ‘protect’ Clinton”

Environmentalists are calling New York’s leaking nuclear plant “Chernobyl on the Hudson” and rightly so, as the aging plant has been plagued with welding problems. The plant is leaking a drop of contaminated water every five seconds, shockingly including 600 gallons of petroleum, some of which has even reached the discharge canal, according to Governor Andrew Cuomo, who toured the area by boat on October 1st.   Continue reading “Media cover-up as New York’s nuclear plant leaks into the Hudson River”

Since the conflict in Syria began receiving national news coverage, President Barack Obama has been outspoken in his desire to allow thousands of refugees from the country to be relocated into America — because apparently protecting the rest of the world is the responsibility of the federal government in the United States. Forget the fact that many of these people need shelter because of drone strikes ordered by Obama; it’s now our responsibility to care for the people that he tried to kill. This is classic Regressive Left logic.   Continue reading “Obama staging last-minute invasion of USA with Syrian refugees – 12,000+ to be deposited across America”
