The Obama administration has accused the contractor hired to conduct background checks for security clearances of committing fraud, resulting in hundreds of thousands of incomplete reviews.

Among the many investigations conducted by the firm, United States Investigations Services LLC(USIS), were those for National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden and Washington Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis.   Continue reading “U.S. Charges with Fraud the Security Firm that Approved Snowden and Navy Yard Murderer”

Why do they fight in a war that they know is a lie?

Why in the Hell would the troops and contractors continue to go to these wars knowing that they are lies? I believe it is for numerous reasons. Most of these guys joined up as young men that are very impressionable. Today they play all of the combat simulator games on xbox and playstation and want to go do it for real. They don’t have a real clue what combat is gonna be like they just want to try it. They live in a culture of violence and it becomes something that is desired because of the fake glory that is associated with death and warfare.   Continue reading “Why would they continue to go to a war they know is a lie?”

This article will describe a way to make colloidal silver at home. After the first batch of colloidal silver is made, the second and future batches should make one gallon of high quality 6 PPM to 8 PPM (Parts Per Million) colloidal silver in one and a half hours.

The fist batch will take about three hours, since it will not have the benefit of “seeding” the gallon with previously “cooked” colloidal silver (this “seeding” is necessary to create better electrical current in the distilled water). Once the first batch is made, future batches can be “seeded,” so it will take less time to make these batches.   Continue reading “How to Make Colloidal Silver at Home”

History is often written to benefit certain groups over others.

Indeed, you will often find the blame for some of the worst events in history placed on the wrong individuals or factors. Most Americans today continue to argue over liberal vs. conservative beliefs, unaware that the vast majority of economy ills plaguing the country originate in neither party but in the Federal Reserve, which has debased the US Dollar by over 95% in the 20^th century alone.   Continue reading “Signs Of Weimar Appearing In The U.S.?”

The US Defense Department has warned of reoccurring technical problems with Lockheed Martin’s F-35 stealth fighter, the Pentagon’s costliest weapons program that has already come under heavy criticism.

The Pentagon’s chief weapons tester, Michael Gilmore, provided an in-depth look at the F-35’s technical features, emphasizing what he calls the “unacceptable” characteristics of the aircraft’s software, according to a draft obtained by Reuters.    Continue reading “Bombs away: Pentagon’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter can’t escape software problems”

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The New Madrid fault zone in the nation’s midsection is active and could spawn future large earthquakes, scientists reported Thursday.

It’s “not dead yet,” said U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Susan Hough, who was part of the study published online by the journal Science. Researchers have long debated just how much of a hazard New Madrid (MAD’-rihd) poses. The zone stretches 150 miles, crossing parts of Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee.   Continue reading “Study: New Madrid fault zone alive and active”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mike Huckabee’s comments about contraception proved quick fodder for Democrats and a headache for Republicans trying to market themselves as a better choice for female voters who have proved elusive to the GOP.

The former Arkansas governor and potential presidential contender told fellow Republicans on Thursday that Democrats were trying to win over female voters by promising them birth control and telling them they cannot manage “their libido or their reproductive system without the help of the government.”   Continue reading “Huckabee’s comments on birth control gift for Dems”

GRAZ, Austria (AP) — The marble tombstone looks like others dotting the main cemetery of Graz, Austria’s second city — but only at first glance. Carved into it are a swastika and the inscription: “He died in the struggle for a Great Germany.”

Footsteps away, another gravestone is marked with the SS lightning bolts proudly worn by the elite Nazi troops who executed most of the crimes of the Holocaust. Austrian law bans such symbols, and those displaying them face criminal charges and potential prison terms. Yet the emblems reflecting this country’s darkest chapter in history endure here, and officials appear either unable or unwilling to do away with them — despite complaints from locals.   Continue reading “Swastika on Austrian tombstone defies official ban”

Illinois is mulling a new medical marijuana law that would force pot users to sign away their right to bear arms.

Those who focus on the right to bear arms love to say, “what part of ‘shall not be infringed’ don’t you understand,” as a catch phrase to show that the founders did not want government to be able to sweep in and take away our rights to self defense. That phrase can be asked of Illinois legislators who are proposing that to get a medical marijuana permit citizens would have to relinquish their right to bear arms.   Continue reading “Illinois Wants Potheads to Give Up Their Second Amendment Rights”
