This essay serves as an Addendum to one of my previous posts titled “China to Purchase the Federal Reserve”.  The article itself has generated a lot of interest and many questions.  Such things are not easy to prove and take book length discourses to fully understand and grasp the complexity of not just the process, but also the history behind it.  Such are the expectations of pivotal events.

Let’s back track 100 years to 1913 and the creation of the Federal Reserve.  The Fed was set up as the central bank of the United States.  It has a 100 year mandate (there are questions about extensions) and quickly went to work printing money and building up the American war machine for World War One which began the very next year.   Continue reading “America’s Karma and World War Two Gold Theft”

It’s phenomenal story on paper, but when you read between the lines, it’s almost 100% certain that this latest ‘domestic terror’ event in the Silicon Valley, Northern California was a government-sanctioned operation.

This attack happened a few months ago, but was only publicly acknowledged by authorities this week.   Continue reading “Latest ‘Domestic Terror’ Sniper Attack in California is Likely a Government False Flag”

The 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi aren’t the only platform for Russian President Vladimir Putin to assert himself on the international stage. He is reportedly planning to preside over a major Moscow conference in September sponsored by the World Congress of Families, a pro-family coalition that includes several high-profile American conservative organizations.

Putin, who is recently divorced and is said to have a mistress, will present himself as a defender of the Christian faith and Christian values, in contrast to the decline and decadence of the West. He is counting on conservatives in attendance to ignore the fact that he was a Soviet KGB officer and ran its successor, the FSB. One of the main specialties of the Soviet/Russian intelligence services is propaganda and disinformation.   Continue reading “Putin Poses as Defender of Christian Civilization”

We outsiders can only speculate about how 5 prominent banksters and a journalist were wiped off the planet earth within the past several weeks.  There is basically three possible scenarios, but the one not being considered is the possibility that these individuals may have had enough money and power to erase their names  from the system by faking their deaths.  You decide which is more plausible based on the facts:   Continue reading “Did 5 Banksters and 1 Journalist All Fake Their Deaths?”

The list of government recommendations on healthy and unhealthy foods over the last several decades have been as reliable as trying to pick the right numbers on a lottery ticket. There are numerous examples of foods we were told not to consume, but are now at the top of grocery lists thanks to a savvy public who are no longer fooled by irresponsible recommendations based on corporate greed. We have become more informed on the downfalls of short-sighted advice from old-school nutritionists, who really had very little understanding of nutrition at all. Here are the top 5 things we now know are great for our health, but didn’t used to based on limited perspectives on food education.    Continue reading “5 Things We Were Always Told Not To Consume, Yet Are Fantastic For Our Health”

After Iraq and Afghanistan, both of which ended without a clear-cut American victory, the U.S. has little stomach for yet another war. As happened in Vietnam, U.S. forces may look impressive on paper but they have yet to prove themselves on the field.

However, while its conventional military capabilities and will to exercise them may be in doubt there is one area of military power in which the U.S. is still pre-eminent. America’s nuclear strike capability is unquestionable and theoretically it could wipe Tehran off the map.   Continue reading “US “Too Weak” to Attack Iran: IRGC Commander”

I would like to explain a dynamic that has been in use, in recent years, to keep the Restoration of this once great Republic at bay, “To Quell the Resistance to Tyranny” if you will. It is very important for everyone to understand this, because it is causing the tyranny to gain an incredible stranglehold around the Neck of the Republic.

There are only 2 parts to this dynamic. They are as follows.

1. The National Surveillance State.   Continue reading “The Dynamic”

The US Treasury on Friday was forced to enact ‘emergency measures’ after spending its borrowed time and money. By month’s end, Uncle Sam’s piggy bank will be down to just $50 billion, US Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew warned Congress.

By now, hand-wringing warnings that the US Treasury is about to go bust brings to mind the story of the little boy who cried wolf so many times that everybody eventually ignored him – much to his tragic demise.    Continue reading “Home / USA / US Treasury introduces ‘extraordinary measures’ as Feb. 27 debt deadline looms”

TEPCO has revised the readings on the radioactivity levels at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant well to 5 million becquerels of strontium per liter – both a record, and nearly five times higher than the original reading of 900,000 becquerels per liter.

Strontium-90 is a radioactive isotope of strontium produced by nuclear fission with a half-life of 28.8 years. The legal standard for strontium emissions is 30 becquerels per liter. Exposure to strontium-90 can cause bone cancer, cancer of nearby tissues, and leukemia.   Continue reading “Fukushima radiation levels underestimated by five times – TEPCO”

DADE CITY, Fla. (AP) — A bail hearing for a retired Tampa police officer who fatally shot a man inside a movie theater during an argument over texting took a dramatic turn Friday: Prosecutors played a grainy video of the shooting and a recording of the defendant’s police interview.

“If I had it to do over again, it would have never happened,” Curtis Reeves told detectives. “But you don’t get do-overs.” Reeves, 71, is charged with second-degree murder in the Jan. 13 killing of Chad Oulson, 43. At the end of the hearing, which provided glimpses of the strengths and weaknesses of the prosecutors’ case, the judge ordered Reeves held without bail until his trial.   Continue reading “No bail for ex-officer charged in theater shooting”

Florida’s own health insurance marketplace, long touted by Republican lawmakers as a free-market solution to providing affordable health coverage, is expected to launch as early as next week.

Six years in the making, Florida Health Choices will open for business with an inventory of products that cannot legally be marketed using the words insurance, coverage, benefits or premiums, according to Chief Executive Officer Rose Naff.

The brainchild of U.S. Senator Marco Rubio while he was a state legislative leader in 2008, Florida Health Choices has been held up by advocates as a better alternative to President Obama’s signature Affordable Care Act.   Continue reading “Florida set to launch its own limited insurance marketplace”
