My husband, as I have mentioned many times in posts, is in a federal prison for the crime of not filing federal tax returns. A non crime for us plebs and a requirement for those on the federal dole.

This fight went back as far as 1999, where my husband and brother in-law went to the tax authorities and begged them to show them where in the tax law were they liable to pay a tax on their labor.  The bastard authorities could not come up with an answer, and 10 years later came after them with a vengeance. That included bringing me into the vengeance  against the uppity “citizen” and trying to convict us all into a “conspiracy against the US government”.     Continue reading “The Faces of Justice Need to be Smeared, Shamed, and Brought to the Gallows”

The Obama administration has touted the White House website’s ‘We the People’ section as a powerful platform for the American public to petition their government. According to a new report, however, those solicitations are all too rarely acknowledged.

“When I ran for this office, I pledged to make government more open and accountable to its citizens,”United States President Barack Obama wrote on WhiteHouse.gov back in September 2011. He was unveiling at the time the website’s new ‘We the People’ feature, and said the addition of it would be“giving Americans a direct line to the White House on the issues and concerns that matter most to them.”   Continue reading “White House ‘We the People’ petitions unanswered two years later”

A small, elite group of US citizens has already met their 2014 financial obligation for Social Security two days into the New Year, and will no longer be required to contribute any of their income to the federal program.

Nearly all working Americans will continue to pay the social security tax through the duration of 2014. The 900 wealthiest, however, have fulfilled their responsibility for the whole year on Thursday by earning $117,000 – the maximum total social security is allowed to take from an individual income each year – on the first and second days of the month.   Continue reading “900 wealthiest Americans exempted from paying 2014 Social Security past Jan. 2nd”

BEIRUT (AP) — The leader of an al-Qaida-linked group that carried out attacks across the Middle East before shifting its focus to Syria’s civil war died on Saturday while in custody in Lebanon, the army said.

In a short statement, the Lebanese army said Majid al-Majid “died this morning while undergoing treatment at the central military hospital after his health deteriorated.” It did not elaborate. Earlier, a Lebanese army general told The Associated Press that al-Majid died after suffering kidney failure. He was speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations. State-run National News Agency said al-Majid died “after his health conditions deteriorated.”   Continue reading “Senior al-Qaida figure dies in custody in Lebanon”

Families planning trips to one of Disney’s theme parks can now get waterproof rubber wristbands embedded with computer chips in lieu of paper tickets. When scanned, the bands can act as a park entry ticket, a FastPass, a hotel room key and a credit card. The “Magic Bands” — which are currently optional — are part of a new MyMagic+ “vacation management system” that can track guests as they move throughout the park.   Continue reading “Now Disney Can Track Your Every Move with NSA-Style Wristbands”

WEB Notes: Who in their right mind would ever allow a foreign nations components on your own military aircraft? This makes absolutely no sense and shows just how far along globalism truly is.

(Reuters) – The Pentagon repeatedly waived laws banning Chinese-built components on U.S. weapons in order to keep the $392 billion Lockheed Martin Corp F-35 fighter program on track in 2012 and 2013, even as U.S. officials were voicing concern about China’s espionage and military buildup.   Continue reading “U.S. waived laws to keep F-35 on track with China-made parts”

In the 1970′s, the civilized world criticized the Soviet Union for their designation of a new mental illness called “Political Schizophrenia”.  Soviet style political schizophrenia  was deemed to be inappropriate by ICD-9 because the Russians were labeling anyone who disagreed with the government as  being mentally ill. And in Mother Russia, if you were deemed to be mentally ill, you were subsequently “treated” in the Gulag.   Continue reading “Obama’s Gun Confiscation Plans Are a Prelude to Genocide”

Anyone who thinks it is a fantasy that government will simply just confiscate 10% of everyone’s accounts in Europe better have another look at the fool they see in the mirror staring back at them. This IMF solution is traditionally French and is really coming because the people in charge are effectively Marxists and this idea came from the IMF under the control of French ideology. They will expropriate these funds to save a banking system that they screwed up and will never reform anything because they are incapable of admitting any mistake.   Continue reading “The Coming 2014 Expropriation of 10% of Everyone’s Accounts”
