The Air Force’s secret space plane has been up in orbit for nearly 500 days—a space endurance record. But nearly a year and a half into the mission, the Pentagon still won’t say what the X-37B is doing up there, or when it might come back.

The U.S. Air Force boosted the robotic X-37B atop the nose of an Atlas-5 rocket in December 2012. Since then it’s orbited the Earth thousands of times, overflying such interesting places as North Korea and Iran.     Continue reading “Will The Pentagon’s Secret Space Plane Ever Return to Earth?”

So, they checked your background, and you got that job at an intelligence agency. No doubt you are smart, and with that fancy compartmentalized clearance you have, you can truly claim to be the BIG SHOT. But perhaps there is something you failed to consider . . . .

There is something that I am sure most people do not realize when they talk about the NSA, CIA, FBI, ect. And that is that these agencies have no people in them that are allowed to know what their work is really used for. A tyrannical government will always seek out honest people and use them to do evil by restricting information from them. Continue reading “The evil of compartmentalization”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo, Dec 5, 2011

It’s not just the hundreds of thousands of members in the alternative media community that are pointing out the dangers to liberty posed by government’s anti-terror legislation. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY), like his father Dr. Ron Paul (R-TX), puts the platitudes and pointless bickering aside to tackle the real issues – the underlying fundamental issues that threaten our very way of life.   Continue reading ““Someone Who Has Guns, Ammunition, 7 Days of Food” Can Be Considered a Potential Terrorist”

Someone’s been vandalizing compact Smart cars in San Francisco, flipping the tiny vehicles on their front and rear ends in the city’s streets.

NBC Bay Area found four of the targeted Smart cars between Sunday night and Monday morning. Two were found in the Bernal Heights neighborhood on Anderson Street, and another was found a bit south on Sweeny and Bowdoin streets, closer to the Portola district. They were either sitting on their headlights, rear bumpers high in the air, or vice versa.   Continue reading “Vandals Flip Smart Cars Over in San Francisco”

I know what I’m about to present to you is difficult to believe. Please read the following and ask yourself, does it sound like I don’t know what I’m talking about? Do I sound like an irrational or delusional person? Most importantly, considering everything that’s going on, does what I’m positing sound completely implausible?

There are too many details to provide so I’m going to try to keep it brief. I’m a very outspoken activist. About four years ago I began waking up every half hour or hour on the hour. Prior to that I hadn’t ever had any sleeping problems. For several months I thought I was just having trouble sleeping. I started seeing a doctor and a neurologist. I even went to a sleep lab. At the sleep lab I slept fine and I was given no explanation why this would be happening.   Continue reading “Unwarranted Surveillance”

“Like Manchurian candidates, we have been made into Manchurian consumers, who subconsciously buy when we are triggered by our brand masters.” – Bryant H. McGill

Name recognition.  It’s why corporations spend millions plastering their emblems on every stray sporting venue that seats more than 5 people; why jingle writers drive Cadillacs; why, in politics as in nursery schools, rhyme is always more effective than reason; and why Hillary Clinton, according to a March poll conducted by the Associated Press, is viewed more favorably than crab lice by 1,016 randomly chosen American idiots.   Continue reading “The Name Game”

INDIANAPOLIS — FBI agents on Thursday were still removing thousands of artifacts ranging from arrowheads to shrunken heads and Ming Dynasty jade from a house in rural central Indiana.

A 91-year-old man amassed the vast collection over several decades, perhaps since he began digging up arrowheads as a child.   Continue reading “FBI raids rural Indiana home for ancient artifacts”

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

Over the weekend the world was gripped by the drama surrounding the mysterious murder-homicide of the former CEO of Dutch bank ABN Amro and members of his family, and whether there is more foul play than meets the eye. However, that is nothing compared to what just happened in the tiny, and all too quiet Principality of Lichtenstein, where moments ago the CEO of local financial institution Bank Frick & Co. AG, Juergen Frick, was shot dead in the underground garage of the bank located in the city of Balzers.   Continue reading “Another Dead Banker: CEO Of Liechtenstein Bank Frick Murdered In Broad Daylight”

BERLIN (AP) — Michael Guhle met the love of his life on the beach of a little fishing village in Vietnam. Thi An Nguyen was selling freshly cooked mussels and fruit to the German tourist and they immediately clicked. Soon the Berlin nursing home worker was saving up all of his money and vacation days to visit Nguyen.

Marriage was supposed to bring them together. Instead, it was the beginning of a long ordeal apart. Germany blocked Nguyen from entering the country after she flunked the language test that Germany requires aspiring immigrants to pass — even those married to Germans.   Continue reading “Married couples separated by German language test”

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) — Strange, sad and macabre, the discovery of the skeletal remains of twin brothers Andrew and Anthony Johnson has mystified neighbors and others in Chattanooga and beyond. Each man was found seated in an easy chair inside the modest home they shared for decades, and where they apparently died together about three years ago, with no obvious signs of foul play.

Even while they were alive, though, the 63-year-old twins were something of a mystery to their neighbors, who occasionally saw them wearing surgical masks while gardening but never saw them with visitors.   Continue reading “Mystery surrounds death of Tenn. twins in home”
