Military members, retirees and veterans have a few more reasons to be wary of politicians who say their top priority is to cut federal spending.

The Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday released a report of more than 100 options for reducing budget deficits. It’s a timely product as House and Senate conferees strive to negotiate by mid-December a new debt-cutting deal to replace automatic budget cuts of sequestration.   Continue reading “Military Update: Veterans could see benefits cut in effort to reduce federal deficit”

Dr Chris Busby is a brilliant and courageous researcher. In the month following the March 11, 2011 Fukushima disaster he examined air filters  from cars near Fukushima. He compared them to Chernobyl and calculated that Fukushima was 300 times worse than that previous disaster. He has recently calculated just how much radiation would be released if there were another typhoon or earthquake and in a worst case scenario all of the radiation from the spent fuel pools were released at one time. I do not question his numbers. I just disagree with his conclusions. But it is vital that we start a dialogue on why I disagree with a man I admire so much.   Continue reading “Why I Disagree With Dr Chris Busby On Fukushima”

Some drivers along a busy Fort Worth street on Friday were stopped at a police roadblock and directed into a parking lot, where they were asked by federal contractors for samples of their breath, saliva and even blood.

It was part of a government research study aimed at determining the number of drunken or drug-impaired drivers.

“It just doesn’t seem right that you can be forced off the road when you’re not doing anything wrong,” said Kim Cope, who said she was on her lunch break when she was forced to pull over at the roadblock on Beach Street in North Fort Worth.   Continue reading “North Texas Drivers Stopped at Roadblock Asked for Saliva, Blood”

The price of America’s drone war is normally borne in silence by nameless victims in distant lands left to pick up the pieces. RT’s Lucy Kafanov visited Yemen to put a human face to a community forever changed by yet another anonymous strike from above.

“One drone changed this sleepy farming village forever. Less than an hour from Yemen’s capital, Khawlan is far removed from Al-Qaeda’s operations. But without warning it was thrust into the war on terror,” RT’s Lucy Kafanov, who visited the community ravaged by a drone attack, reports.   Continue reading “US drone strike rips Yemeni community apart”

Taking into consideration they now consider america the battlefield… I FIND THIS EXTREMELY DISTURBING. Post on your sight for everyone to line their space where they keep their “Tools” with sheet metal… So no images can be taken from these satellites. Or bury them.

Heritage hog farmer Mark Baker sued the State of Michigan when its Department of Natural Resources arbitrarily ordered him to kill his pigs in late 2011.

After two years of stalling, the state now has moved his trial from his home county to the state capital, where a panel of four appellate judges – hand-selected by the state – will hear his case.

The Department of Natural Resources declared Baker’s pasture-raised pigs to be an invasive species of wild boar essentially because they were raised outdoors rather than in a confinement animal feeding operation.  Continue reading “Courts Go Hog Wild in Michigan”

According to a whistleblower that has recently come forward, Census employees have been faking and manipulating U.S. employment numbers for years.  In fact, it is being alleged that this manipulation was a significant reason for why the official unemployment rate dipped sharply just before the last presidential election.  What you are about to read is incredibly disturbing.  The numbers that the American people depend upon to make important decisions are being faked.  But should we be surprised by this?  After all, Barack Obama has been caught telling dozens of major lies over the past five years.  At this point it is incredible that there are any Americans that still trust anything that comes out of his mouth.  And of course it is not just Obama that has been lying to us.  Corruption and deception are rampant throughout the entire federal government, and this has been the case for years.  Now that some light is being shed on this, hopefully the American people will respond with overwhelming outrage and disgust.   Continue reading “Fake Employment Numbers – And 5 More Massive Economic Lies The Government Is Telling You”

The American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the American Heart Association (AHA) have released new guidelines to address escalating rates of heart attack and stroke among adult populations. But rather than encourage people to stop eating refined sugars and processed flours, two of the biggest culprits responsible for high cholesterol and atherosclerosis, these Big Pharma-backed groups are pushing to more than double the number of people currently taking statin drugs.   Continue reading “Cardiologists on Big Pharma kickbacks release new statin drug guidelines in effort to double prescriptions”
