Five years??? Guess this guy just came out of his cave. Been a helluva lot longer than that.

Freedom Outpost – by Richard Anthony

Every single day when I turn on the news, I am appalled and shocked beyond belief at the flagrant lawlessness of our elected officials. For some reason, they absolutely do not believe they are held to the same lawful standards as you or I. I’ll take it a step further and say that they do not feel compelled to obey the laws that they legislate.   Continue reading “It’s Time to Call for the Arrest of Criminal Politicians in Washington”

NEW YORK – On the eve of a critical Capitol Hill discussion on Syria and two days before his address to the nation, President Obama has offered Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a way out of any U.S. bombing campaign.

Informed Middle Eastern intelligence officials tell WND the U.S. passed a message to Assad through Russia offering a deal that would ensure against U.S. military action if the Syrian leader agrees to the following terms:   Continue reading “Obama Offers Assad Secret Deal – Sets 4 Conditions to Avert U.S. Attack On Syria”

The German Government is now deeply suspicious that the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) technology built into a growing number of Windows 8 PCs and tablets is creating a gigantic back door for NSA surveillance, leaked documents have suggested.

Documents from the German Ministry of Economic Affairs obtained by German title Zeit Online uncover the alleged unease of officials at the direction of version 2.0 of the standard being developed under the auspices of the multi-vendor Trusted Computing Group (TCG).   Continue reading “Is Windows 8 a Trojan horse for the NSA? The German Government thinks so”

The Obama administration secretly won permission from a surveillance court in 2011 to reverse restrictions on the National Security Agency’s use of intercepted phone calls and e-mails, permitting the agency to search deliberately for Americans’ communications in its massive databases, according to interviews with government officials and recently declassified material.

In addition, the court extended the length of time that the NSA is allowed to retain intercepted U.S. communications from five years to six years — and more under special circumstances, according to the documents, which include a recently released 2011 opinion by U.S. District Judge John D. Bates, then chief judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.   Continue reading “Obama administration had restrictions on NSA reversed in 2011”

Highly radioactive water that leaked from a storage tank and was not discovered until last month is spreading underground at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Sept. 5.

The utility said 650 becquerels per liter of radioactive materials, which emit beta rays such as radioactive strontium, were found in water samples from an observation well near the tank, from which an estimated 300 tons of highly radioactive water were found to have leaked.   Continue reading “TEPCO confirms highly radioactive water spread underground”

Washington police are operating under orders to arrest tourists and other non-residents traveling with spent bullet or shotgun casings, a crime that carries a $1,000 fine, a year in jail and a criminal record, according to a new book about the city’s confusing gun laws.

“Empty shell casings are considered ammunition in Washington, D.C., so they are illegal to possess unless you are a resident and have a gun registration certificate,” pens Emily Miller in her investigative book, “Emily Gets Her Gun: … But Obama Wants to Take Yours.”   Continue reading “Warning: D.C. cops under orders to arrest tourists with empty bullet casings”

A cacophony of honks rang out along Interstate 15 to the delight of protesters who gathered along the Tropicana Avenue overpass early Saturday to shun President Barack Obama’s push to launch a military strike against Syria.

The group, whose numbers peaked at about 50 late in the morning, chatted and cheered in unison as reggae music bellowed from a portable radio whose sound was mostly drowned out by the noise of highway traffic below.   Continue reading “Dozens gather along I-15 to protest possible military strike on Syria”

The whole world is seeing more clearly by the day the reality of what’s unfolding. Those who felt they had a semblance of say so with their governments are finally realizing it’s really in effect non-existent. People can put up a stink and they’ll get some lip service but it won’t change the course of things.

Not the big stuff the rulers have in mind and have planned for so long and have been executing incrementally.   Continue reading “Psychopathic Zionism – Itchy Finger on a Deadly Hair-trigger”

The US Senate, supposedly America’s more deliberative body, has proven to be the quickest to jump on the war bandwagon.  In the case of voting for the bombing of Syria, it has instead proven to be the most isolated, knee-jerk, warmongering, war-profiteering and least accountable political institution consisting of elected officials.

With US Representatives’ terms being two year and senators’ term being six years, we can all now see how the additional length of a senator’s term can isolate him or her from representing the people and instead allow them to serve the interests of the warfare state, the surveillance state and the police state.    Continue reading “McCain All In and Doubled Down On Stupidity of the American People”

Illicit drug use by Americans over 50 has dramatically increased, while illicit drug use among young people has declined, according to the latest survey on drug use by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The data was gleaned from 70,000 Americans who were surveyed about their “past month use” of a variety of drugs, including marijuana, heroin, cocaine and prescription drugs (used in “nonmedical” contexts).   Continue reading “Illicit Drug Use Over 50 On the Rise: Survey”

alternative to refrigerationOff the Grid News – by Tanya A.

If you live in the United States and are reading this, chances are you have a good-sized refrigerator. This is where you store much of your food, putting it in the fridge because it’s convenient and you don’t have to think much about the food once it’s there. Most produce from the store, if you buy any quantity at all, is often tossed into the fridge. Leftovers go into the fridge and often scoot to the back, forgotten for a long while, if we’re honest.   Continue reading “How To Keep Your Food Cold Without A Refrigerator”

More than 600 Royal Marines from 30 and 42 Commando units will arrive in Aqaba, Jordan, next week for planned war-games, kitted out with chemical warfare equipment.

Their numbers will include signalers from the Y Troop unit, mobile cyber war specialists attached to 3 Commando.

The Pantry Primer adding larger purchasesThe Organic Prepper

Weekly grocery shopping is not the way to quickly build  one-year food supply.  But now that I have built a base, over the past two weeks I was able to easily skip the weekly trips and save up for a larger purchase.

To be able to afford large purchases when you are on a regular, week-to-week budget, you have to figure out a strategy. For me, that is the best way to save up for bigger purchases – skip a week of shopping and then add the budgets of the two weeks together in order to  make some bulk purchases that I ordinarily couldn’t swing along with a week of regular grocery shopping.  Other strategies could include:   Continue reading “The Pantry Primer: Adding Larger Purchases to Your Stockpile”

Ye Olde False Flag

LOS ANGELES (AP) – In the backyard of his remote Southern California home, Bernie Jones is etching an unconventional blueprint: a construction plan to build his underground survival shelter. It won’t be the typical, cramped Cold War-era bunker. It will hold 20 people.

Part of a small but vocal group of survivalists in Menifee, some 80 miles east of Los Angeles, Jones, 46, has pushed for the right to build a bunker on his 1-acre property for nearly a year. He wants to be ready for anything, be it natural disaster or a nuclear attack.   Continue reading “Small California city welcomes doomsday bunkers #Preppers”

On the day Bennie Coleman lost his house, the day armed U.S. marshals came to his door and ordered him off the property, he slumped in a folding chair across the street and watched the vestiges of his 76 years hauled to the curb.

Movers carted out his easy chair, his clothes, his television. Next came the things that were closest to his heart: his Marine Corps medals and photographs of his dead wife, Martha. The duplex in Northeast Washington that Coleman bought with cash two decades earlier was emptied and shuttered. By sundown, he had nowhere to go.   Continue reading “Left With Nothing”

How to Make ThermiteUS Crow

After reading How to disable MRAP Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected Light Armored Vehicles, written by CMF Contributor Runik. I noticed the absence of TGs (thermite grenades) on the use of MRAPs. This caught my attention, and needed an explanation. According to CMF Contributor Runik, Thermite Grenades were not included because they are not entirely effective against MRAP LAVs. Effective thermite use on an MRAP relies on breaches in MRAP FK6 armor, which are few to say the least. Basically…EFPs are still your best bet on an MRAP.   Continue reading “How to make Thermite Grenades for Vehicle and Equipment Disabling”
