Global Research – by Dominic Ponsford  Interview with Nick Ut 40 years after the ‘napalm girl’ picture: Proof that journalism matters and that it can make a difference

If you ever find yourself wondering whether journalism is a noble profession and whether it can make a difference I would recommend reading my interview with Nick Ut – which appeared first in last week’s edition of Press Gazette – Journalism weekly, our new digital magazine all about journalism.

Oh my goodness, golly gee.  US Attorney General Eric Holder was found in Contempt of Congress.  So what now?  Well if the proper procedure is followed, the Attorney General for Washington DC is supposed to put together a case against Holder and take it to a Grand Jury.  But that is not going to happen.  You see, it just isn’t done.  Eric Holder is one of the criminal elite and stands above any and all US laws, including our Constitution.

Now, the Congress could appoint a special prosecutor to go after Holder for civil contempt.  This is not going to happen either, but if it did, then what?  Well the special prosecutor would take the case to the courts and at each and every stage, from the first call to order, every aspect would be appealed by Eric Holder’s attorneys.

The Golden Truth   There’s not a lot to say about the SCOTUS decision on Obamacare other than, “okay, now how does the Government pay for this?”   That plus now that the SCOTUS has upheld the ability of the Government to “mandate” how you have to live your life by calling the individual mandate a “tax,” where exactly will our Government draw the line on regulating everything you do?

Quite honestly this is probably one of the most depressing events I have witnessed with respect to the abdication of individual liberty – and the annexation of power and control – by the Federal Government.  The fact that this particular SCOTUS put its stamp of approval on this move toward a totalitarian system is quite shocking.

Tune in to The Word From the Trenches today at 12:00 noon Pacific time for discussion on the Supreme Court decision to uphold Obamacare.

The Supreme Soviet (The Supreme Court) will be further defining the dictatorial powers of the socialist insurgents over we the peasants of the United States today.  The issue at hand is socialist mandatory health care, better known as Barrycare.  This healthcare legislation was written by and for the health insurance industry.  It violates our Constitution on its face as it presumes that the government has authority over we the people in reference to our personal decisions on health care.

If the legislation is upheld, it will be yet another example of the totalitarian takeover of the United States.  Under our Constitution, our servants can have no power to tell us how we must spend one penny of our money.

One of the consolations being offered to the Ron Paul supporters by the Campaign for Liberty is the assertion that, though we may not succeed in getting the GOP ticket for Dr. Paul, we will make “great inroads” in electing patriotic local representatives, who in accordance with the theory, will pass local legislation designed to protect our Constitution and our rights.

On Monday, the so called Supreme Court of the United States destroyed all illusions of correcting the problems within our nation from the bottom up, as key portions of Arizona’s immigration law was struck down by the treasonous insurgent soviet socialists sitting on the Supreme Court.

The Vatic Project  Vatic Note:  I cannot believe the hidden history that I am falling onto by accident.  This is another major big eye opener.  I want to thank the pragmatic Witness for finding this and publishing it.  This is what happens when you  go down rabbit holes looking for something else…. and history jumps up and kicks you in the toosh.  This great Jewish man, through an attack of conscience and his love for his adopted country, The United States of America,  came clean in 1961 in a spontaneous speech he gave  and its revealing.

What courage and integrity he had.  Something that has been disappearing here,  like real clouds. He literally tells us these so called “Jews” are really Khazars but he uses the term Jews because that is what every one else calls them.   Now this is in 1961.  Unbelievable.

The International Forecaster – by James Corbett  Last week in these pages we forecasted: that a pro-bailout party would win the Greek election; that the socialists would take a majority in the French elections; that Spain would require a significantly larger bailout to prop its banking sector up; and that the Fed would likely extend Operation Twist as a way of keeping everything moving along sideways. Check, check, check, and check. In most areas of life, 4 for 4 is something to be happy about, but when forecasting during the death throes of the global economic system as we’ve known it, getting things right is hardly cause for celebration.

The people of Egypt have chosen between the two evils offered to them by the power elite controlling their country.  Mohammed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood candidate, won Egypt’s runoff election by one million votes.  In the United States the mainstream media is praising the success of democracy in Egypt, while at the same time admitting that the new President-Elect will be nothing more than a figure head with very limited powers as the Egyptian Military, the day before the runoff election, seized power and dissolved the Muslim Brotherhood led parliament.

This being said, the notion that the will of the Egyptian people has been asserted through democracy is a sham.  When Hosni Mubarak was President of Egypt, his will was asserted through a military dictatorship.  The same generals that enforced Mubarak’s will over his people still maintain absolute control over the country, and in reality this is what was intended all along.

As the United States goes to hell in a hand basket, the mainstream propagandists continue their production of Campaign 2012, starring Mitt Romney and Barack Obama with a possible co-starring role to go to Marco Rubio, Chris Christie, or Jeb Bush and Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton.  And everyone is sitting on the edge of their seats…….not.   This whole fiasco is not only nauseating but is reaching the point of being tiresome.

The American people of the American race continue to hold onto the hope that somehow, like in the movies of old, justice will prevail and Ron Paul will ride forth on a white stallion proclaiming the United States a Free Republic once again.  I personally will advocate for Dr. Paul every inch of the way to Tampa, Florida, but the fact is I harbor no delusions.

From the implementation of the Dream Act through the insurgent Obama’s executive order; to Operation Gunrunner, which was an international gunrunning, drug smuggling, and money laundering crime; to state controversies involving the giving illegal aliens in-state tuitions that American citizens from other states cannot get; to 30 million American jobs being worked by illegal aliens at a time of record unemployment in the US; to our social safety net being overwhelmed by illegals; it has become apparent that the interests of the foreign sovereign country Mexico and its citizens are affecting the day to day lives of Americans more than our own actions and activities.

This is an insurgency by definition.  The insurgents are now increasing their efforts to restructure our body politic to accommodate their further invasion.  Obama has already committed yet another blatant act of treason in acting against the will of our Congress and in the interests of foreigners who are in our country illegally.  And of course as this is an election year, this is all coming forward front and center politically.

This article is for those still fortunate enough to have a job in the private sector who have been waving the banner and shouting the slogans for public pension reform.  We at From the Trenches have been saying for months now that the attack on public pensions is unjust and is being used to divide we the people against one another to the benefit of the corporate elite.

As the theft and corruption in the United States has become cyclical in its operation and as we have told you it would be; now the corporations are asserting that there exists a $435 billion shortfall in private pensions.  And of course all those workers in the public sector, having been betrayed by workers in the private sector, will now support corporate cuts in private pensions saying, “If they can do it us then let them do it to them.

Lew Rockwell – by Gary North  For the first time in my career, I see the international establishment, sometimes called the New World Order, facing a crisis so large that its very survival is at stake. For the first time, these people are scared.

There are not many of them. In his book, Superclass, author David Rothkopf estimates that there are only about 6000 people at the top of the pyramid of world power and influence. They are mostly males, and at least a third of them have attended America’s most prestigious universities. Most of the others have attended comparable universities in Europe.

Godfather Politics  This has got to be one of the grossest miscarriages of law enforcement that I’ve read about lately.

Rick and Terri Reese, along with their two sons Ryin and Remington ran a federally licensed gun shop in Deming, New Mexico.  They kept meticulous records of all the firearms and ammunition they purchased and which were purchased by customers.  They performed the required FBI background checks when necessary.  Basically, they ran their gun shop by the letter of the law for 17 years.

As we head into yet another summer of discovery that we have been blatantly lied to for yet another year, the economic experts are pouring forth. They are noting that we have less jobs and less industry than we had last year at this time as they parrot the standard June slogan.

It is all about confidence.  All the infrastructure is in place for a huge recovery but the filthy rich, who have accumulated another year’s record profits, have lost “confidence” and the only thing that can restore their confidence is further tax breaks and stimulus.  All the profits the elite derived from last year’s theft are now being pumped into low yield bonds which are being horded.

Godfather Politics  Yet another Barack Obama biography has been recently published.  This time it was written by someone friendly to Obama.  David Maraniss, in his book, Barack Obama: The Story, sought to chronicle the early years of young Obama and tell of things that molded and shaped him into being the person he is today.

Maraniss diligently researched as much as he could about Obama’s childhood, including the relationship between his parents.  He looked up records and interviewed as many people as possible that may have had some knowledge of Barack Obama Sr and Ann Dunham, his father and mother.

We have become a nation inundated with investigation after investigation into government and corporate corruption, JP Morgan’s Jamie Dimon appearing before House Financial Services Committee to explain where $7 billion in investors’ money got away to, Eric Holder’s investigation into security leaks coming out of the White House, former Pennsylvania State’s football coach Jerry Sandusky on trial for buggering little boys, the constitutionality of Obamacare before the Supreme Court, and of course Representative Issa investigating Eric Holder and the entire Justice Department in reference to their role in Fast and Furious.
