Drive west from Calgary on the Trans-Canada Highway toward the Rocky Mountains, and you’ll pass a distinct billboard that isn’t promoting a hotel, restaurant or other attraction.
Its message is vague, with images of airplane vapour trails crisscrossing the sky and the words “Look up!!! There’s a new cloud in town…” as well as an accompanying website address, pointing people to LookUpBanff.com. Continue reading “LookUpBanff billboard promotes conspiracy theory about toxic chemtrails”
ATLANTA (AP) — A judge sentenced a Georgia man to 40 years in prison Wednesday for throwing scalding water on a gay couple sleeping in an apartment, leaving them with severe burns that required surgery.
Jurors deliberated for about 90 minutes before finding Martin Blackwell, 48, guilty of eight counts of aggravated battery and two counts of aggravated assault in the February attack on Anthony Gooden and Marquez Tolbert. Continue reading “Man gets 40 years for pouring scalding water on gay couple”
LOS ANGELES (AP) — It’s a conspiracy: The 2016 campaign features one candidate who warned against the “vast right-wing conspiracy” and another who was a leader of the so-called “birther” movement. Donald Trump and his surrogates hint at a mysterious “illness” afflicting rival Hillary Clinton. Pushing back, Clinton warns of murky ties between Trump and the Russian government, insinuating that her Republican opponent may be a puppet of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Rumors and innuendo long confined to the far reaches of the Internet are dominating the presidential race, forcing Clinton to grapple — once again — with the kinds of whispers that have dogged her family for decades. Continue reading “Welcome to the Trump-Clinton conspiracy election”
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Hundreds of University of Texas students waved sex toys at a campus rally during the first day of classes, protesting a new state law that allows concealed handguns in college classrooms, buildings and dorms.

Barry Bahrami went from incredulous to angry last month when California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a batch of firearms control laws known collectively as “Gunmageddon.”
Then, the San Diego-based CEO became determined to fight back against the laws, which take aim at so-called assault weapons, enforce ammunition background checks, mostly take effect Jan. 1 and outlaw the possession of high-capacity magazines and ban the “bullet buttons” that already require a tool to release the magazine, instead advocating that the rifle is partially disassembled, and that any rifle with a detachable magazine will be defined as an assault weapon.

End of the American Dream – by Michael Snyder
Is Hillary Clinton healthy enough to serve as president if she wins the election? Over the past couple of weeks this has become a major issue, and the mainstream media is actively conspiring with the Clinton campaign in a desperate attempt to cover up the truth. For example, the Washington Post, which has essentially become a mouthpiece for the Clinton campaign at this point, has been publishing an article “debunking” claims about Clinton’s health almost every day recently. One of their headlines that really caught my attention was “Don’t believe everything you read about Hillary Clinton’s health on Google“. By the way, there were three Hillary Clinton campaign ads on that one page alone. But CNN took things to an entirely new level this week when it published an article entitled “Clinton’s health is fine, but what about Trump?” I was so flabbergasted by that headline that my wife came into my office to see what all of the commotion was about. No, Hillary Clinton’s health is not “fine”, and we will get to that later in this article. Continue reading “There Is A Mainstream Media Conspiracy To Hide Hillary Clinton’s Rapidly Failing Health”

Everyone was forced onto Obamacare.
Now, it is collapsing… by design.
Sadly, this was the plan all along – to completely socialize health care after the collapse of competition in this new government-backed monopoly market that represents approximately one-sixth of the entire U.S. economy.

Here are pics from the tornado that hit Kokomo Wednesday afternoon. The pics are me going back southbound about 4 minutes after the funnel blew through. (I decided to haul ass North when I saw I was right in the path, and waited off the road until I could see again, and went back South to see what had happened).
Obviously the Starbucks Commie Coffee building got what it had coming to it. This twister went through about 150 yards north of where another one went through 3 yrs ago. Continue reading “Tornado Damage in Kokomo, Indiana”

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (CN) — A federal class action filed Tuesday accuses an Arkansas city and district court judge of running a debtors’ prison that traps poor residents into a never-ending spiral of incarceration and debt.
The lawsuit was filed Tuesday on behalf of four Sherwood, Arkansas residents who claim their constitutional rights were violated by the Hot Check Division of the Sherwood District Court, where a $15 returned check can mushroom “into many thousands of dollars in court costs, fines and fees.” Continue reading “Arkansas Town Accused of Running Debtors’ Prison”
I’ve been watching the recent flooding in Louisiana and the response to those in need. Churches in my area have loaded up trucks and trailers and have coordinated with Louisiana churches to provide assistance. No requirement of church membership, proof of tithing, approval of lifestyle, racial quotas — none of that. It’s just, “You need some diapers for your baby? Here they are.”
That’s how charity is supposed to work. You learn about someone in need and then you find a way to meet that need. The founder of Salvation Army knew this and founded the organization on those principles. You can read his fascinating life story in this book.

“If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor” was President Barack Obama’s signature catchphrase he used to sell the Affordable Care Act to the American people. Now Obamacare’s flagship website, healthcare.gov, no longer even addresses the issue.
Ironically, the section in question was the first public (if indirect) admission by the Obama administration that the president’s promise was less than a “guarantee.” As THE WEEKLY STANDARD first reported in July 2013, the website told consumers that they “may be able to keep your current doctor,” in contrast to the president’s unequivocal statement: “Here is a guarantee that I’ve made. If you have insurance that you like, then you will be able to keep that insurance. If you’ve got a doctor that you like, you will be able to keep your doctor.” Continue reading “Obamacare Website No Longer Addresses ‘You Can Keep Your Doctor’”
A fleet of tiny satellites could one day be used to detonate plasma bombs in Earth’s upper atmosphere to improve the range of radio communications.
The US Air Force has granted contracts to three research teams to develop the technology needed to do this, with hopes that CubeSats could carry massive amounts of ionized gas to the ionosphere to create radio-reflecting plasma.

A new wave of ransomware attacks against hospital has begun. Internet criminals are distributing Locky ransomware on a vast scale, mostly in the form of phishing campaigns directed at the healthcare sector. The method of distribution is a macro-enabled Office 2007 Word document containing the malicious payload. Continue reading “Criminals Target Hospitals Through New Locky Ransomware Campaign”
The U.S. Army has pulled a slide from a training presentation that described Hillary Clinton as an “insider” threat to national security.
The slide, which was used in a PowerPoint presentation at Missouri’s Fort Leonard Wood, included the image of the Democratic nominee alongside pictures of disgraced retired Gen. David Petraeus, Chelsea Manning, Edward Snowden, Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan and Washington Navy Yard gunman Aaron Alexis and described them as “insiders” who were “careless or disgruntled” government employees.
