Amid the screaming and wailing of the anti-Trump activists, it’s easy to lose sight of the possible changes that the United States – and even the world – could see when Donald J Trump officially becomes the President of the United States on Friday. Most people want to see the changes as either black or white, but there are many shades of gray in each of them.
Here are nine changes we could see, presented without judgment. Continue reading “Bane or Blessing? 9 Ways Trump Could Change the World”
In a clearcut case of an ironically bearded hipster fox guarding the henhouse of truth, Slate presents a brand new extension that Chrome users can install. The tool not only identifies “fake news” but allows readers to narc on anything they don’t like.
Of course, anyone who would accept a word that Slate has to say as “truth” is so far left-leaning that they’re about ready to topple over, and will report a lot of true things they just don’t like as “fake.” We all know that in their eyes “fake” and “something I don’t like” are identical in definition, and that definition has nothing to do with the act of thinking critically. Continue reading “Slate Presents a Fake News Tool So You Can Narc on Stuff You Don’t Like”

Laws that give municipal officials and their private contractors power to issue tickets via traffic cameras confer powers of both criminal and civil law while excusing them from the due process duties of both criminal and civil law.
The traffic-camera ticket: like a parking ticket, it looks lawful enough. When they receive one, most people simply write the check. It seems like the sensible and law-abiding thing to do.

“Without the pen of the author of Common Sense, the sword of Washington would have been raised in vain.” – John Adams
Thomas Paine was born in 1737 in Britain. His first thirty seven years of life were pretty much a series of failures and disappointments. Business fiascos, firings, the death of his first wife and child, a failed second marriage, and bankruptcy plagued his early life. He then met Benjamin Franklin in 1774 and was convinced to emigrate to America, arriving in Philadelphia in November 1774. He thus became the Father of the American Revolution with the publication of Common Sense, pamphlets which crystallized opinion for colonial independence in 1776.

John F. Kennedy was entirely right about the CIA … and that was back in 1961. Imagine how much worse the global CIA-run tyranny is in 2017, 56 years later. In addition to brutally murdering the American president, how many other heads of state have been summarily assassinated by the Central Intelligence Agency? Continue reading “Time to ‘splinter’ the CIA—DJT needs to finish the job started by JFK”
The Obama administration has responded to calls to declassify the full CIA Torture Report with a “will this do?” promise to lock up one copy in the presidential archives. While this ensures one copy of the full report will survive the next presidency, it doesn’t make it any more likely the public will ever see more than the Executive Summary released in 2014.
Other copies may still be scattered around the federal government, many of them in an unread state. The Department of Defense can’t even say for sure whether its copy is intact. Meanwhile, an ongoing prosecution in which the defendant is alleging being waterboarded by the CIA has resulted in an order to turn over a copy of the full report to the court. Continue reading “DOJ, Obama Administration Fight Order Requiring The Full CIA Torture Report To Be Turned Over To The Court”

John Connally, President Nixon’s Secretary of the Treasury, once remarked to the consternation of Europe’s financial elites over America’s inflationary monetary policy, that the dollar “is our currency, but your problem.” Times have certainly changed and it now appears that the dollar has become an American problem.

Treating cavities with standard dental fillings may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to new research showing that damaged teeth have a natural ability to heal on their own. Researchers from England have shown in new animal trials that, when exposed to a substance known to aid in mineral delivery and dentine formation, tooth cavities will naturally regenerate and seal themselves without the need for mercury-based amalgam, porcelain, cement, or some other synthetic material.
At King’s College London in England, a team of scientists began experimenting with a substance known as Tideglusib that is already undergoing trials as a potential remedy for Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Though the drug has yet to show any promise for this specific purpose, it is showing promise in another: the natural regeneration of damaged teeth.

While the United Kingdom has recently made a tremendous leap forward by acknowledging the unparalleled medicinal benefits of CBD oil, the good old United States continues to lag behind at an embarrassingly slow, essentially backwards pace.
Prior to the UK unveiling its decision to reclassify CBD oil as a medicine, the Drug Enforcement Agency in the US recently declared that the substance was equivalent to heroin by placing it in the same, heavily restricted class — Schedule I. Continue reading “US reclassifies CBD as schedule 1 drug as UK reclassifies it as medicine”

TOKYO (AP) — A family of four believed to be from Australia has been rescued after becoming lost on a ski resort in central Japan, where they survived the night reportedly inside a hole they dug in the snow.
Police said Tuesday that the family — a woman in her 50s and her three sons — went off course while skiing near the 1,650-meter (5,413-foot) peak of Nozawa Onsen ski resort the previous day. Rescuers were unable to find the family Monday night, but found them walking down a hiking trail early Tuesday. Continue reading “Australian family of 4 OK after night on Japanese mountain”
ISTANBUL (AP) — The Latest on the arrest of Istanbul nightclub gunman (all times local): 7:20 p.m. Turkey’s state-run news agency says the gunman who carried out the attack on the Istanbul nightclub was wanted in his home country of Uzbekistan for membership in a “terror organization.”
Anadolu Agency, reporting from Uzbekistan’s capital of Tashkent on Tuesday, said the alleged assailant left the country for Afghanistan six years ago. The agency based its report on unnamed security sources and added that Uzbek authorities were sharing information with Turkey on the suspect, identified as Abdulkadir Masharipov.

The Daily Sheeple – by Piper McGowin
The stage for Friday is obviously being set.
As previously (and now extensively) reported here at The Daily Sheeple, copious warning signs coming out of DC signal that Friday’s inauguration will be anything but a peaceful transition to power. Whenever the inauguration is brought up, words like riot, violence, and chaos aren’t too far behind.
Secret Service is now saying they are gearing up for a ceremony unlike any they have ever overseen. Over 100 protest groups are now scheduled to attend, and ads for paid agitators have gone up in two dozen cities across the country. Continue reading “Wait, What? DC Police Will Not, Repeat, Not Have Body Cameras On During The Inauguration Protests”
In case you hadn’t noticed, uttering a politically incorrect comment is now a bigger crime than decimating thousands in a war.
You can bomb a country into submission and chaos, leaving dead and wounded from shore to shore, and that might be counted as a “mistake in judgment”; but using a few loaded words—or in this case—criticizing an intelligence agency—is an earthshaking event that could make the planet spin off-course… Continue reading “CIA director slams Trump for slamming CIA”
