KANSAS CITY, Mo. — At least three families in the Brookside neighborhood have had encounters with swooping owls while walking or jogging the street. It’s the reason Janice Allen looks up into the trees while working out in her neighborhood.

“I used to walk looking down at different things that had fallen, sticks and acorns, so I don`t trip on them when I`m walking my dog.

It thanked her supporters, and promised to review any new evidence that emerges.   Continue reading “DA: ‘No evidence’ reporter investigating JFK assassination was murdered”

Though outrage over mass surveillance swept the United States after Edward Snowden’s revelations in 2013, there is little discussion of these invasive practices just four years later.

This apathy comes despite former President Barack Obama’s move to expand to information sharing between agencies just days before Trump took office and after the Trump administration signaled its desire to continue widespread surveillance.   Continue reading “Trump Quietly Nominates Mass Surveillance Advocate To “Protect” Your Privacy Rights”
