Who are these people? Some will immediately chime in, “They aren’t people at all!” Perhaps so…perhaps not. They go by many names; The Powers That Be, The Illuminati, The Freemasons, The Brotherhood of the Snake, The Universal Brotherhood, The Sinisteri are but a few. The broad term, Parasitical Elite, is more description than a branded label.

There is a designed ambiguity surrounding the Parasitical Elite. Through millennia, however, certain constants manifest themselves; they are as unavoidable as the age found in a person’s eyes regardless of the best efforts of cosmetic surgery. Parasitical Elites, regardless who you think they are, are evil. ‘Evil’ is itself a subjective term, but in the broad context of the thought processes of non-psychopathic people, we can all agree on a universal definition of evil as the desire to do harm to others.    Continue reading “The Parasitical Elite – Defining The Shifting Enemy Of The Common Man”

The LAPD-Israel bond was in large part fused by former LAPD Chief William Bratton, who made official trips to Israel to learn about the country’s advanced counter-terrorism tactics during his chiefdom from 2002 to 2009. At a town hall meeting in Los Angeles near the end of his term, Bratton said of Israeli intelligence experts: “They are our allies. They are some of the best at what they do in the world, and that close relationship has been one of growing strength and importance.”   Continue reading “LAPD scopes out Israeli drones, ‘big data’ solutions”

Home ownership in America is not what it used to be. For a frugal family who pays off their mortgage according to its terms, they still have to look forward to a lifetime of rising property taxes in order to keep a roof over their heads. In many municipalities, property taxes are arbitrarily raised annually by the maximum amount allowed each year by law, rather by an honest assessment of current property values. For some homeowners, this can mean that regardless of what the market is actually doing, their appraisals can and do rise up to 10% each year. Failure to pay property taxes, of course, can result in liens against the home or even foreclosure.   Continue reading “City Ordinance Nightmare – Texas Homeowner Facing $2600 in Fines for ‘Weeds’ 12 Inches Tall”

The European Commission is set to authorize the growing of genetically modified maize on European soil, despite 19 member states voting against the move, highlighting the “absurd” rules of weighted votes in the EU.

In a debate on Tuesday, 19 EU member states indicated that they would vote against the authorization of genetically modified maize because of health and environmental concerns and opposition in the European Parliament.    Continue reading “EU to approve new GM crop, ignoring majority members’ opposition”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder called on a group of states Tuesday to restore voting rights to ex-felons, part of a push to fix what he sees as flaws in the criminal justice system that have a disparate impact on racial minorities.

“It is time to fundamentally rethink laws that permanently disenfranchise people who are no longer under federal or state supervision,” Holder said, targeting 11 states that he said continue to restrict voting rights for former inmates, even after they’ve finished their prison terms.   Continue reading “AG urges restoring voting rights to ex-inmates”

California is used to minor earthquakes. Sitting atop a myriad of fault lines, both minor and major, earthquakes are away of life. Most of them are un-noticed as they are too small to feel. But over the last ten days, California has had a series of quakes of magnitude 3.0 or above on the Richter scale.

The LA Times records three such incidents. Another has been reported by the USGS today.   Continue reading “The San Andreas Fault Shows Signs of Awakening”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Five years ago the Air Force considered a series of proposals to boost morale and fix performance and security lapses in its nuclear missile corps, according to internal emails and documents obtained by The Associated Press. But many fell short or died on the vine, and now, with the force again in crisis, it’s retracing those earlier steps.

The new effort is more far-reaching, on a tighter timetable and backed by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. So it appears to hold more promise for an Air Force under scrutiny after a variety of embarrassing setbacks and missteps raised questions about whether some of the world’s most fearsome weapons are being properly managed.   Continue reading “Nuke reform drive features ideas tried 5 years ago”

ATLANTA (AP) — The city dodged the first punch of a dangerous winter storm Tuesday, but forecasters warned of a potentially “catastrophic” second blow in a thick layer of ice that threatened to bring hundreds of thousands of power outages and leave people in their cold, dark homes for days.

The streets and highways in metro Atlanta were largely deserted as people in the South’s business hub heeded advice from officials to hunker down at home, especially after the snow jam two weeks ago saw thousands of people stranded on icy, gridlocked roads for hours when 2 inches of snow fell.   Continue reading “Winter storm wallops the South; 4 killed in Texas”

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Washington has become the latest state to halt executions, with Gov. Jay Inslee issuing a moratorium on the death penalty for as long as he’s in office.

The first-term Democrat said during Tuesday’s announcement that he hopes it will enable officials to “join a growing national conversation about capital punishment.” Inslee said he came to the decision after months of review and meetings with victims’ families, prosecutors and law enforcement.   Continue reading “Washington Gov.
