SYDNEY (AP) — The nearly three-year search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 ended Tuesday, possibly forever — not because investigators have run out of leads, but because the countries involved in the expensive and vast deep-sea hunt have shown no appetite for opening another big phase.

Late last year, as ships with high-tech search equipment covered the last strips of the 120,000-square kilometer (46,000-square mile) search zone, experts concluded they should have been searching a smaller area immediately to the north. But by then, $160 million had already been spent by Malaysia, Australia and China, who had agreed over the summer not to search elsewhere without pinpoint evidence.   Continue reading “MH370 hunt ends, maybe forever, after nearly 3 years, $160M”

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.   Continue reading “The Declaration of Independence”

Standing Rock, ND — Over the last several months, the world has watched the American police state in action as cops from more than a dozen states beat, gassed, pepper sprayed, tasered, shot, and severely injured water protectors and protesters in North Dakota. Using their militarized gear, police have blinded at least one person and blown up the arm of another. With all the heavily armed police and military in the area, one would think that having a missile launcher would be entirely unnecessary — however, one would be wrong.

Jon Zeigler has been live streaming from DAPL since last year. On Monday, he found something quite disturbing — the Avenger AN/TWQ-1 Air Defense System.   Continue reading “It Just Got Real — Cops At DAPL Now Have Missile Launchers — Not Kidding”

The U.S. intelligence community recently reaffirmed its conclusion that senior officials in Russia were behind hacks during the 2016 presidential campaign into the Democratic National Committee and emails belonging to associates of Hillary Clinton.

But what exactly is the “intelligence community?” It’s not just an amorphous term for all U.S. intelligence officials. It’s a veritable alphabet soup of 17 agencies and offices. The group includes agencies strictly focused on intelligence as well as the intelligence arms of other government agencies and of the military. Its total budget in 2015 was $66.8 billion.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Jan. 16, 2017) – A so-called  “Constitutional Carry” bill filed in the Indiana House would make it legal for most Hoosiers to carry a firearm without a license, and foster an environment hostile to federal gun control.

Rep. Jim Lucas (R) and three cosponsors introduced House Bill 1159 (HB1159) on Jan. 9. The legislation would repeal the law requiring a person to obtain a license to carry a handgun in Indiana. If passed, any person otherwise legally authorized to carry a handgun could carry concealed without a permit. The law would still allow Indiana residents to obtain a license so they can carry in states that have conceal carry reciprocity with the state.   Continue reading “Permission Not Required: “Constitutional Carry” Bill Introduced in Indiana”

A proposed law that would punish countries that refuse to take back their illegal immigrant criminals is two years too late to save Casey Chadwick, but the Texas congressman behind it figures it’s the least Washington can do.

Chadwick was murdered in 2015 by Jean Jacques, an illegal immigrant from Haiti and one of thousands freed onto U.S. streets each year after they serve prison time because their homelands refuse deportation. But a proposal by Rep. Brian Babin, R-Texas, the Criminal Alien Deportation Enforcement Act, would force such countries to take back their citizens or risk losing foreign aid and travel visa privileges.   Continue reading “Law would cut off aid to countries that refuse to accept illegal immigrant criminals”

The creation of the Federal Reserve Bank was a coup. The coup plotters were the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers and the Warburgs. Their agents had their first meeting to draft the legislation that became the Federal Reserve Act in a private rail car across the river from Manhattan on November 22, 1910. That rail car took those men to Georgia to their secret meeting  on Jekyll Island. It is no accident that their second coup was on November 22, 1963 when President Kennedy was assassinated. JFK was killed on the 53rd anniversary of their first coup.   Continue reading “The 107 Year Plan To Destroy America. PS: Your Wages Will Be Cut 60%.”

With Obamacare in its well-deserved death throes, supposedly “affordable” care act champion Nancy Pelosi has taken to Twitter to rigorously defend her piece of crap legislation to its bitter end with hilarious Tweets that come across as proof that she has completely lost touch with reality in a way that she should probably go get professional medical advice on.

The bandwagon of fail really kicked into full swing a few weeks ago when Pelosi sent this out… and apparently she wasn’t joking:   Continue reading “Nancy Pelosi’s Latest Tweets Defending Obamacare Make People Wonder If She Has Dementia And Just Isn’t Telling Anyone”
