You know that “Special Relationship” that so many POTUSes say exists between the US and UK?
It’s special alright!
So special that each U.S. President who repeated the Tavistock-fabricated mantra knew that they were really working for “the Crown”, not the American people. Continue reading “The British Crown, Privy Council and ‘City of London’ Effectively Rule America”

JTA — More than 6 percent of the new Congress is Jewish, with 34 Jews among the total of 535 lawmakers in the US House of Representatives and Senate.
Jews make up 2% of the US population, so Congress as a whole is more than thrice as Jewish as the country in general, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center on religion in the new Congress, which was inaugurated Thursday.

The Israel lobby has been busy taking a wide variety of government officials and opinion makers on fully expense paid trips to Israel this month. The trips cost in the range of $10,000 per person.
Six newly elected House members are on a 5-day visit to Israel, a delegation of northern California “progressive leaders” are on a week-long trip, media commentator Tara Setmayer has just returned from such a trip, and a delegation of southern California progressive leaders returned from their trip earlier this month.

WASHINGTON – Serious misconduct by senior federal prison officials is “largely tolerated or ignored altogether” as the agency fostered a culture in which some were shielded from discipline or even commended for their service by colleagues, according to a new congressional review.
“For high-ranking officers, bad behavior is ignored or covered up on a regular basis, and certain officials who should be investigated can avoid discipline,” House investigators concluded in a nine-page report for the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Continue reading “Congressional report: Misconduct by federal prison leaders ‘ignored’ and ‘covered up’ on a regular basis”
When it comes to taking advantage of European tax loopholes, Google and its parent company Alphabet may have just superseded Apple in the eyes of EU regulators.
Because in a recent filing, Google disclosed a “totally legal” tax-avoidance scheme involving a soon-to-be-phased-out strategy known as the “Double Irish, Dutch Sandwich.” Continue reading “Google Moved $23 Billion To Bermuda Tax Haven In 2017”

A high school that requires some students to wear ID badges announcing their failing grades is causing bullying and public ridicule, especially for students with learning disabilities, and has caused the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to step in.
Mingus Union High School in Cottonwood, Ariz., issues ID badges for all students to hang around their necks — freshmen and sophomores wear red-colored cards and juniors and seniors wear gray, both of which are school colors. “These are standard badges worn by students at schools across the nation issued in large part as identification in the case of a school shooting,” attorney Susan Segal, who is representing the school, tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “At Mingus, older kids are allowed to leave campus for lunch, and their colored badges indicate their grade level to security guards.” Continue reading “School policy forces kids with bad grades to wear special IDs: ‘Public ridicule,’ says ACLU”

As of Tuesday, adults younger than 21 are no longer allowed to buy semi-automatic rifles in Washington, thanks to a ballot initiative approved by 59 percent of that state’s voters last November. The initiative, I-1639, officially targets “semiautomatic assault rifles,” but its definition of that term is so broad that it renders the assault part superfluous, except for tendentious rhetorical purposes. Continue reading “Washington Redefines All Semi-Automatic Rifles As ‘Assault Weapons’”

Dozens of blood pressure medicines have been recalled. The medications, containing an ingredient used to make rocket fuel, are the latest in the recent mass blood pressure drug exodus.
The recent recall that follows months of blood pressure drug recalls may be an ominous sign for modern medicine as the blood pressure and stroke medications are manufactured in China, notorious for its pollution. Two-thirds of the ingredients from the drugs originate in China, whereas the other third comes from India. Continue reading “Blood Pressure Meds Made in China and India Recalled for Containing Ingredient Used to Make Rocket Fuel”
It’s a geographic curiosity – a bit of US land at the top edge of Minnesota, disconnected from the rest of the state.
The Northwest Angle is known to local residents, people who love to fish – the region is famous for its walleye – and geography buffs.
It is accessible by land only through the Canadian province. Continue reading “Should the US hand over Minnesota’s Northwest Angle to Canada?”
In my last article, ‘The Fed Is A Suicide Bomber With A Deeper Agenda’, I explored and dismantled recent propaganda surrounding the Federal Reserve’s tightening actions, including the propaganda that Jerome Powell is some kind of rogue central banker who is rebalancing the system for the good of the nation. To summarize the points made in that article: Continue reading “Trump Is A Pied Piper For The New World Order Agenda”

While most Americans thought they wouldn’t be affected by the partial government shutdown, anyone with a federal tax refund coming to them will have to wait until the stalemate is over, according to the Wall Street Journal.
As one of the agencies which now lacks funding, the IRS and the US tax collector are operating with roughly 1/8 of their usual staff under a shutdown plan it’s operating under outside the tax-filing season. Continue reading “IRS Won’t Issue Refunds During Shutdown: That Could Be A Problem”
