ST. LOUIS (CN) – A St. Louis suburb’s bid to dismiss allegations that it repeatedly jails low-income residents when they cannot pay traffic fines faltered Monday when a federal judge ruled that five former detainees can proceed with civil rights claims against the city.

In an 18-page ruling, U.S. Magistrate Judge Nannette Baker found that five former detainees at the city of Florissant’s jail pleaded sufficient facts to establish that their civil rights were violated, and that the city enacted a scheme that some have likened to a modern-day debtors’ prison.   Continue reading “St. Louis Suburb Must Face Class-Action Claims of Debtors’ Prison”

I’m going to assume the readers who make it to this article are well informed enough that I don’t have to go into the history of the global money changers and their desire for a one world currency. (If you don’t yet understand the goal of the globalist banking empire and the coming engineered collapse of the fiat currency system, you’re already about 5,000 posts behind the curve.)

With that as a starting point, it’s now becoming increasingly evident that Bitcoin may be a creation of the NSA and was rolled out as a “normalization” experiment to get the public familiar with digital currency. Once this is established, the world’s fiat currencies will be obliterated in an engineered debt collapse (see below for the sequence of events), then replaced with a government approved cryptocurrency with tracking of all transactions and digital wallets by the world’s western governments.   Continue reading “Evidence points to Bitcoin being an NSA-engineered psyop to roll out one-world digital currency”

Dec 13, 2017 — Washington has ended a temporary residency program for almost 60,000 Haitians allowed to legally enter the United States following an earthquake in 2010. The affected Haitians will have to leave the U.S. by 2019. The program has also been revoked for 2,000 Nicaraguans and it’s unclear if other groups including 300,000 Salvadorans will be allowed to remain. The net result is a continued flow of people crossing the border into Canada by foot.

They are taking advantage of a footnote in a Canada-U.S. treaty that says foot crossers won’t be turned back from Canada until their case is heard.  Continue reading “The other side of Roxham Road: Canada grapples with border refugees”
