The Boat Train – by K Patrick Ryan

In the wake of the Snowden leaks, our masters have wisely initiated a new plan of action to keep us, the idiots who pay the taxes and in return get spied upon, in the dark.

Called a ‘Two Man Rule’ (perhaps a more honest name would be ‘1 gentile and 1 jew rule’); the NSA has vowed no one individual will have access to ‘sensitive’ information. Instead, every man (and woman) will have a minder to look over their shoulder and keep tabs on what information is being accessed. This should prove to be beneficial to America’s unemployment problem.    Continue reading “Feds Adopt New Measure To Prevent Further Leaking of Their Activities to the Public”

Natural News – by Ethan A. Huff

If there is any remaining doubt in your mind about the fact that the federal government today has been completely overrun by sociopathic, freedom-hating enemies of the U.S. Constitution, some recent absurd statements made by South Carolina Senator (and full-fledged American traitor) Lindsey Graham, a Republican, should put all such doubt to rest.   Continue reading “Enemy of freedom Lindsey Graham says he would support censoring mail for ‘national security’ purposes”

Eco Watch – by Josh Fox

[Editor’s note: This op-ed by Josh Fox is in response to an op-ed by Thomas Pyle—president of the Institute for Energy Research, a pro-industry nonprofit organization—on Real Clear Energy.]

Industry’s denial of the dark side of natural gas fracking shouldn’t fool anyone. Thomas Pyle’s claim on Real Clear Energy that there is not one “confirmed case of groundwater contamination” from fracking is the big lie, repeated often. It’s like saying cigarettes don’t cause cancer. And industry’s intentional disinformation campaign comes from the same tobacco playbook (it even uses the same PR firm).  Continue reading “Don’t Believe Thomas Pyle’s Hype That Misleads the Public on Fracking”

Infowars – by Paul Joseph Watson

The wife of Rolling Stone journalist Michael Hastings, who was killed in what many people believe was a suspicious car crash last week, has vowed to “take down whoever did this,” according to the man who released an email in which Hastings told friends he was being harassed by the government.

Staff Sergeant Joseph Biggs, who yesterday told Fox News that Hastings was working on “the biggest story yet” about the CIA before his untimely death, was responsible for releasing an email Hastings wrote 15 hours before his car crash in which the journalist stated he was “onto a big story” and needed “to go off the rada[r] for a bit.”   Continue reading “Michael Hastings’ Wife Vows to “Take Down Whoever Did This””

Examiner – by Dave Workman

A Georgia woman associated with Mayors Against Illegal Guns confirmed to Examiner Tuesday afternoon that she did author a controversial e-mail relating to yesterday’s “No More Names” bus stop in Atlanta, in which she noted that at earlier stops, pro-gun protesters did appear but “the ‘wing nuts’ were present (and) they were fairly passive and knew their place.”

Today’s Atlanta Journal-Constitution has several images taken at the capitol, where it appeared gun rights activists and anti-gunners were about evenly matched.   Continue reading “‘Wing nuts knew their place,’ says MAIG Georgia associate”

UNEAU, Alaska – Federal kidnapping in Alaska just got a lot harder.

Last Friday, Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell signed a sweeping nullification bill providing  broad protections against indefinite detention, violations of the Second Amendment and blocking implementation of a federal identification program in The Last Frontier.   Continue reading “Alaska Becomes Second State to Pass Nullification of Indefinite Detention”

A federal lawsuit alleges that Chicago police sodomized a man with a gun until he agreed to become a participant in a drug sting, the Courthouse News Service reports.  Plaintiff Angel Perez is suing police officer Jorge Lopez and the city of Chicago for excessive force related to the incident, which, according to the lawsuit, was quite the nightmare.    Continue reading “Chicago Police Accused of Using Gun to Sodomize Innocent Man”

If you need a sure way to identify that a proposed law or regulation is bad news, perhaps the fact that it has to be presented by movie stars and professional athletes to make it palatable could be a clue.

The White House is apparently getting celebrity endorsements to help sway the public opinion on Obamacare. Continue reading “Obamacare to be Launched with a Star-Studded Celebrity Propaganda Campaign”

Jeff Olson, the 40-year-old man who is being prosecuted for scrawling anti-megabank messages on sidewalks in water-soluble chalk last year now faces a 13-year jail sentence. A judge has barred his attorney from mentioning freedom of speech during trial.

According to the San Diego Reader, which reported on Tuesday that a judge had opted to prevent Olson’s attorney from “mentioning the First Amendment, free speech, free expression, public forum, expressive conduct, or political speech during the trial,” Olson must now stand trial for on 13 counts of vandalism.    Continue reading “California man faces 13 years in jail for scribbling anti-bank messages in chalk”

St. Louis Post-Dispatch – by Christine Byers

ST. LOUIS • In Chief Sam Dotson’s vision of modern policing, a drone would circle Busch Stadium to watch for terrorists, or silently pursue a criminal who thought the chase was over when the officer in the car behind him turned off its red lights and siren.

And Dotson is working to make it happen.   Continue reading “St. Louis police chief wants drones to monitor city from the sky”

The Los Angeles Unified School District will use a state grant to train teens to promote ObamaCare to family members. Covered California, the state’s health insurance exchange, announced grants of $37 million on May 14 to promote the nationally unpopular law.

LAUSD will receive $990,000. The district listed as a primary outcome for its project, “Teens trained to be messengers to family members.”   Continue reading “California Schools to Train Kids to Sell ObamaCare”

Down with Tyranny – by Ken

Howie will have quite a lot to say about the Supreme Court ruling in the morning, and I’m happy to give the subject a pass. I’d probably just fulminate, and probably calumniate — the Five Supreme Lunks, that is. (Howie’s going to have some point-by-point on them too.)

Instead I thought I’d retreat into the political weirdosphere. From our local online news emporium DNAinfo.com this evening:   Continue reading “Antony Weiner is now the NYC mayoral front runner”
