SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

London’s violence continues to soar out of control after six teenagers were stabbed in 90 minutes during what’s being dubbed the “night of violence” in Great Britain’s gun-free capital. As the United Kingdom continues to punish self-defense, the criminals are free to wreak havoc on the city.

Most mainstream media outlets continue to fail to mention that much of United Kingdom is disarmed, and there have been some pretty stringent “knife-control” measures enacted as well to attempt to stop the surge in stabbings.  But none of their laws are helping, as criminals have figured out they are the only ones armed and those who even make an effort to defend their own lives or property will be prosecuted.

Russian Energy Minister Aleksandr Novak said the country is considering an option of payments for oil in national currencies, in particular with Turkey and Iran.

According to him, both countries are interested but there is also a matter of conversion of currencies and their further use. “There is a common understanding that we need to move towards the use of national currencies in our settlements. There is a need for this, as well as the wish of the parties,” Novak said.   Continue reading “Moscow wants to get rid of dollar & euro payments in oil trade with Turkey and Iran”

There are many indications that ISIS, or ISIS-inspired entities, are looking to renew their armed insurgency in the Philippines. As is typically the case, wherever ISIS goes, the US military is not too far behind.

Not many people will be aware that aside from the fact that peace-prize-laureate Barack Obama was bombing at least seven predominantly Muslim countries in the Middle East at any given time during his presidency, he was also secretly drone-bombing the Philippines, as well. Obama’s drone campaign, of course, was widely regarded as one of the most effective recruitment tool for groups like ISIS (incidentally, a group now growing from strength to strength in the Philippines).   Continue reading “Here’s why the Philippines may become ISIS’ next caliphate”

A report by the UK House of Commons library has warned that the continued accumulation of wealth at the top will fuel growing distrust and anger over the coming decade unless action is taken to restore balance.

According to the report, seen by The Guardian, if trends seen since the 2008 financial crash were to continue, then the top 1 percent will hold 64 percent of the world’s wealth by 2030. Even taking the financial crash into account, and measuring their assets over a longer period, they would still hold more than half of all wealth.  Continue reading “Richest 1% will own two-thirds of global wealth by 2030”

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is shutting down his Facebook account as the social media giant struggles to cope with the worst privacy crisis in its history. In an email to USA Today, Wozniak says Facebook makes a lot of advertising money from personal details provided by users. He says the “profits are all based on the user’s info, but the users get none of the profits back.”   Continue reading “Apple co-founder protests Facebook by shutting down account”

BOULDER — A controversial city ordinance to ban “assault weapons, bump stocks and high capacity magazines” passed the Boulder City Council unanimously on first reading Thursday night after more than five hours of public testimony on both sides of the issue.

As written, the ban would require anyone legally possessing anything under the ban to either register that gun with the Boulder Police Department (fee charged) or surrender it for destruction.   Continue reading “Boulder City Council passes gun ban on first reading”

Sacred Cow Slaughterhouse – by Michael Z. Williamson

Here at the house, I have a couple of decades plus of military experience.  I have tools to dig in or out of natural disasters.  I have extinguishers and hoses. I have a field trauma kit and bandages. I have weapons both melee and firearm. I know how to use them. I know how to trench, support and revet.  I understand the fire triangle and appropriate approaches.  I understand breathing, bleeding and shock.  I know how to detain, restrain and control. I have done all of these at least occasionally, professionally. I’ve stood on top of a collapsing levee in a flood. I’ve fought a structure fire from inside so we could get everyone out before the fire department showed up, which only took two minutes, but people can die that fast.  I’ve had structures collapse while I was working on them. I’ve been in an aircraft that had a “mechanical” on approach and had to be repaired in-flight before landing. I’ve helped control a brush fire.  I’ve hauled disabled vehicles out of ditches in sub-zero weather.   Continue reading “No One Cares If You Go Home Safe At The End Of Your Shift”

Last week was a busy one for economic news, what with a looming tariff war and a job report that is nothing to write home about.

As I wrote earlier, the world’s economy was shakey last week, and the tariff war between the US and China has sent shock waves through the US market.  To refresh, here’s a list of all the products that will be affected should this come to fruition. (And there’s every indication that this is just the beginning.)   Continue reading “What Happened in Economic News Last Week Could Signal a Massive Change for All of Us”

AMMAN (Reuters) – Syria and its main ally Russia blamed Israel for carrying out an attack on a Syrian air base near Homs on Monday which followed reports of a poison gas attack by President Bashar al-Assad’s forces on a rebel-held town.

Israel, which has struck Syrian army locations many times in the course of its neighbour’s seven-year-old civil war, has not confirmed nor denied mounting the raid.   Continue reading “Syria, Russia accuse Israel over strike on Syrian air base”

Since 2013 China has been creating 55 billion tons of artificial rain a year. The country is now embarking on its biggest rainmaking project ever.

In terms of the plan, announced this month, Chinese authorities intend to force rainfall and snow over 1.6 million sq km (620,000 sq miles), an area roughly three times the size of Spain.   Continue reading “China to make it rain over area 3 times the size of Spain”

Four illegal aliens climbed the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border between Ciudad Juarez in Mexico and Sunland Park, New Mexico, Friday to taunt President Trump’s tough-on-immigration stance.

The Daily Mail reported that one migrant, with the help of three other men, leaped over the border wall and ran into U.S. territory in less than two minutes.  Continue reading “Illegal Aliens Climb Border Wall into U.S. to Taunt Trump”

Despite the collapse in cryptocurrency prices since the beginning of the year (bitcoin is down more than 60% and ethereum down more than 70% from their ATHs), more marquee investors have decided that now is the time to buy in.

Last week, we noted that George Soros had taken some time out from his battle of wills with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to grant one of his underlings approval to begin trading in crypto. Adam Fisher – who oversees macro investing at New York-based Soros Fund Management – has reportedly received internal approval to trade virtual coins in the last few months, “though he has yet to make a wager.”  Continue reading “Rockefellers Join Soros & Rothschilds In Cryptocurrency Investment Plans”

Back in the early 1990s, I interviewed John Marks, author of Search for the Manchurian Candidate. This was the book (1979) that helped expose the existence and range of the infamous CIA MKULTRA program.

Marks related the following facts to me. He had originally filed many Freedom of Information (FOIA) requests for documents connected to the CIA’s mind-control program. He got nothing back.   Continue reading “How the CIA hid their MKULTRA mind control program”

The decisions we make about certain issues are formed by scientific evidence, things we see and hear with our own eyes and ears, and years of life experience. Those things informed my decision, for example, to oppose the “gender neutralization” of bathrooms in all Target stores.

Of course, for voicing my opinion I was lambasted as “anti-LGBTQ” (which I am not). I countered that my concern centered mostly around my life experience-informed belief that someone would abuse the store’s progressive policy and harm or potentially harm an unsuspecting child.  Continue reading “We were told this wouldn’t happen: Perv exposes himself to a little girl in a Target “gender neutral” bathroom”
