In his final hours as U.S. Attorney General last month, Jeff Sessions issued a memo limiting the Justice Department’s power to pursue and enforce federal consent decrees with local police departments.

These court-enforced arrangements were a major tool for the Obama administration to curb patterns of police abuse and misconduct during a time of heightened national attention on the issue. The Obama administration launched “pattern or practice” investigations into 25 police departments and entered into 14 consent decrees. By comparison, the Trump administration has initiated zero.   Continue reading “Are Cops ‘Off the Hook’? How Police Reform Has Changed Under Trump”

The US military is one of the few institutions in America that draws its members from all races and religions with blood relatives in all ethnic groups except for Jews. We are under threat of extinction from our self-appointed leaders on Wall street and in the City of London who gave themselves the right to create our money as a loan at interest. This has led to a Mountain of Unpayable Debts. Our economies are near collapse. Banker Occupied Governments see us as an enemy. Their Foundations have done hundreds of studies saying they would be better off without us. They say that six billion of us should die. They are setting America up for a violent and protracted race based civil war that will kill both whites and non-whites just to depopulate us and enslave the survivors.   Continue reading “How And Why An American Military Coup Could Save The World”

Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power.  Giovanni Gentile (not Benito Mussolini)

Most fascists would be insulted by the insinuation that they admire Google, Microsoft and Monsanto and are on the payroll of the NSA.

Corporatism means that the Congress can pass a law requiring you to do business with a company that has poor quality and even harmful products and services. Big Pharma and Monsanto come to mind.   Continue reading “Under Corporatism The People Who Own The Government Can Compel You To Buy Dangerous Products”

The U.S. government just broke a record by leasing the rights to build new offshore wind power, in a deal reaching upwards of $405.1 million late last week. This is the most expensive offshore wind deal in the country’s history. In a few years, a small region in New England could start producing enough electricity to power around 1.5 million homes, according to a new Utility Drive report.

The process started about a year ago, when two different turbine manufacturers—Statoil and PNE Wind—approached the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management with an offer to build new wind turbines in an area off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard. Because both companies were interested in the same area, the agency held an auction to determine who would get the rights.   Continue reading “The U.S. Just Finalized The Largest Offshore Wind Sale in the Nation’s History”

A “profane” or materialistic view of telepathy became commonplace after World War II. Just as new mathematical models and theories of physics had been brought to bear on development of the atomic bomb, so too new tools were brought to bear on the human mind.

Just as Cold War scientists raced to design rocket engines and missile technologies that would give their country superiority on the nuclear battlefield, so too did scientists rush to develop ever more complex and thorough models of the human brain. They literally began to see the brain as a mental battlefield.   Continue reading “The MANY Methods of Mind Manipulation . . . a Worldwide Operation”

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) In recent months, Vermont authorities have ramped up the hiring of drug recognition experts to help determine if a driver is impaired on something other than alcohol. But, defense lawyers and the ACLU are among those who continue to criticize the move, saying DREs are not scientifically reliable.

St. Johnsbury-based attorney David Sleigh said when it comes to the credibility of the drug recognition protocol, the margin for human error is just too much to trust.   Continue reading “How do police test for drugged drivers?”
