Looking at this tree from a distance, it may look as just another old felled tree that has slowly begun to rot away. A view like this isn’t anything new as you can come across old, trees like it all across the globe.

However, this one is particularly interesting. If you take a closer look at this ancient tree, you will notice there is something JAWDROPPING about it.    Continue reading “This may look as an OLD rotting tree, but look CLOSER and your Jaw will DROP”

Attorneys for murder exoneree Lewis Jim Fogle have filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages from Indiana County, two former prosecutors and seven state police troopers involved with the investigation and trial that wrongfully sent him to prison for 34 years until new DNA testing won his freedom in 2015.

In the 32-page lawsuit, the New York firm of Neufeld Scheck & Brustin contend that mounting pressure over a stalled, nearly five-year investigation into a 1976 rape and murder of an Indiana County girl led the officials to “engage in multiple acts of misconduct to cobble together a case by any means necessary. Jim Fogle was the victim of that malfeasance.”   Continue reading “Jim Fogle, a murder exoneree, files suit against Indiana County, former prosecutors and state police”

In response to President Donald Trump’s executive order issued on January 25 — “Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States” — a number of cities that formerly considered themselves as “sanctuary cities” for illegal immigrants are reversing their policies. The first to do so was Miami-Dade County in Florida the day after Trump issued his order.

Miami-Dade was followed by Dayton, Ohio, whose Police Chief Richard Biehl told the Dayton Daily News that ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials would “no longer be impeded” when pursuing illegal immigrants being held by his department. Shortly thereafter Saratoga, New York; Finney County, Kansas; and Bedford, Pennsylvania changed their policies, as well.   Continue reading “Number of Former Sanctuary Cities Reversing Policy”

The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder

The situation at the Oroville Dam has stabilized for the moment, but more storms are coming this week.  When those storms arrive, will authorities be able to avoid the kind of catastrophic incident that almost happened over the weekend?  As you will see below, it is being admitted that a collapse of the emergency spillway at Lake Oroville would have sent a “30-foot wall of water coming out of the lake” and into local communities.  At one point authorities were concerned that such a collapse was imminent, and that is why they ordered the evacuation of nearly 200,000 people.  But many are also concerned that more storms could ultimately cause a catastrophic failure of the infrastructure at the dam that would bring about a “worst case scenario”.  According to the experts, if that were to occur we could potentially see a 100 foot tsunami of water wiping out entire cities.   Continue reading “Worst Case Scenario: 100 Foot Tsunami Would Wipe Out Entire Cities If There Is A Catastrophic Failure Of The Oroville Dam”

WEB Notes: The article goes on to explain how cash is used to finance terrorist operations. Of course and this will be one of the narratives used to remove it. Terrorism which is a manufactured crisis to begin with. I will repeat, people certainly are dying due to terrorism. The point is, the terrorist machines like ISIS are proxies of the West, funded and created to overthrow governments who do not go along with the globalist narrative.

The time will come when you won’t be able to buy a cup of coffee without being traced, warns investment guru Jim Rogers. To control people, governments will increasingly seek to hunt down cash spending, he adds.   Continue reading “Big Brother Is Watching You: Jim Rogers Prophesizes Death Of Cash & Total Govt Control Of Spending”

WEB Notes: This entire idea proves how faint our sense of freedom really is. This is America, we are supposed to be free. What do they mean we need a bill to keep us from being forced to have some implantable chip? If you don’t want a chip you don’t get a chip. The fact that the government wants to get involved tells you they will end up pushing something on the people. Let’s face it, we all are chipped already. You are attached to a cellular device that has wifi connectivity which basically provides tracking wherever you are. A personal listening device if you will. That’s what the CIA reminded us of anyway.

One day while walking between cars in a shopping center I passed a car where the man was just getting out of the drivers seat. In the back of the lay a lab puppy stretched out. He rolled the window down a few inches to give the puppy fresh air.

Then the man looked at the pup and pointing to the car he said STAY! and two more times for emphasis.

In the next parking lane a pretty young blond looked at him seriously and said “why don’t you just put it in park”.

Homes beneath California‘s crumbling Oroville Dam lay abandoned on Tuesday as their owners took shelter in evacuation centers where they may remain for weeks.

They were forced to flee on Sunday when two spillways on the 49-year-old dam failed.  Erosion caused a huge hole in the first, the main spillway, putting all of the strain on a never before used emergency spillway. Backed only by weak rocks and soil, it buckled as water overwhelmed it at a rate of 94,254 gallons per second.   Continue reading “Officials were warned about danger of Oroville Dam break 12 years ago”

SANTA CRUZ >> The U.S. Department of Homeland Security led a pre-dawn operation across Santa Cruz County and Daly City on Monday, arresting 11 members of the Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, gang.

The suspected criminals, members of MS-13, are men between the ages of 20 and 40, he said. A 12th man had been arrested prior to Monday’s operation, Flippo said.   Continue reading “Homeland Security raids arrest MS-13 gang members across Santa Cruz County”

Part of the reason asset forfeiture is such a problem is the lack of transparency. The funds obtained through this process are frequently hidden from the public and used to purchase everything from margarita makers to Stingray devices. The procedure through which the government takes control of citizens’ assets is also shrouded in secrecy. Cases are filed against property, not the persons formerly in possession of them. The process for retrieval is purposely impenetrable, designed to make it almost impossible for petitioners to reclaim their assets.   Continue reading “Chris Christie Says Asset Forfeiture Transparency Is Bad For Law Enforcement, Vetoes Unanimously-Supported Bill”

President Donald Trump’s national security adviser, Michael Flynn, resigned late on Monday after revelations that he had discussed U.S. sanctions on Russia with the Russian ambassador to the United States before Trump took office and misled Vice President Mike Pence about the conversations.

Flynn’s resignation came hours after it was reported that the Justice Department had warned the White House weeks ago that Flynn could be vulnerable to blackmail for contacts with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak before Trump took power on Jan. 20.  Continue reading “Trump national security aide Flynn resigns over Russian contacts”
